RestAuthCommon provides code shared between RestAuth (git) and RestAuthClient (git), most prominently content handlers for JSON, YAML, Pickle, BSON, MessagePack and XML.
For detailed source code documentation please see our homepage.
RestAuthCommon is usually installed automatically when a project depends on it. If you want to or have to install it manually, you can always do:
pip install RestAuthCommon
If you want to use the YAML and/or XML content handlers, you have to install the appropriate libraries, e.g.:
pip install lxml PyYAML pymongo msgpack-python
Note: The pymongo package provides BSON support, but you can also use the bson package instead, if you use Python 2 and want a library written in pure Python.
You can also download release tarballs. We also provide packages for other distributions, please see our homepage for more information.
- RestAuthCommon requires Python 2.7 or later or Python 3.2 or later.
