A client library for accessing Recurso API
First, create a client:
from recurso import Client
client = Client(base_url="https://api.example.com")If the endpoints you're going to hit require authentication, use AuthenticatedClient instead:
from recurso import AuthenticatedClient
client = AuthenticatedClient(base_url="https://api.example.com", token="SuperSecretToken")Now call your endpoint and use your models:
from recurso.models import MyDataModel
from recurso.api.my_tag import get_my_data_model
from recurso.types import Response
with client as client:
my_data: MyDataModel = get_my_data_model.sync(client=client)
# or if you need more info (e.g. status_code)
response: Response[MyDataModel] = get_my_data_model.sync_detailed(client=client)Or do the same thing with an async version:
from recurso.models import MyDataModel
from recurso.api.my_tag import get_my_data_model
from recurso.types import Response
async with client as client:
my_data: MyDataModel = await get_my_data_model.asyncio(client=client)
response: Response[MyDataModel] = await get_my_data_model.asyncio_detailed(client=client)By default, when you're calling an HTTPS API it will attempt to verify that SSL is working correctly. Using certificate verification is highly recommended most of the time, but sometimes you may need to authenticate to a server (especially an internal server) using a custom certificate bundle.
client = AuthenticatedClient(
base_url="https://internal_api.example.com",
token="SuperSecretToken",
verify_ssl="/path/to/certificate_bundle.pem",
)You can also disable certificate validation altogether, but beware that this is a security risk.
client = AuthenticatedClient(
base_url="https://internal_api.example.com",
token="SuperSecretToken",
verify_ssl=False
)Things to know:
-
Every path/method combo becomes a Python module with four functions:
sync: Blocking request that returns parsed data (if successful) orNonesync_detailed: Blocking request that always returns aRequest, optionally withparsedset if the request was successful.asyncio: Likesyncbut async instead of blockingasyncio_detailed: Likesync_detailedbut async instead of blocking
-
All path/query params, and bodies become method arguments.
-
If your endpoint had any tags on it, the first tag will be used as a module name for the function (my_tag above)
-
Any endpoint which did not have a tag will be in
recurso.api.default
There are more settings on the generated Client class which let you control more runtime behavior, check out the docstring on that class for more info. You can also customize the underlying httpx.Client or httpx.AsyncClient (depending on your use-case):
from recurso import Client
def log_request(request):
print(f"Request event hook: {request.method} {request.url} - Waiting for response")
def log_response(response):
request = response.request
print(f"Response event hook: {request.method} {request.url} - Status {response.status_code}")
client = Client(
base_url="https://api.example.com",
httpx_args={"event_hooks": {"request": [log_request], "response": [log_response]}},
)
# Or get the underlying httpx client to modify directly with client.get_httpx_client() or client.get_async_httpx_client()You can even set the httpx client directly, but beware that this will override any existing settings (e.g., base_url):
import httpx
from recurso import Client
client = Client(
base_url="https://api.example.com",
)
# Note that base_url needs to be re-set, as would any shared cookies, headers, etc.
client.set_httpx_client(httpx.Client(base_url="https://api.example.com", proxies="http://localhost:8030"))This project uses Poetry to manage dependencies and packaging. Here are the basics:
- Update the metadata in pyproject.toml (e.g. authors, version)
- If you're using a private repository, configure it with Poetry
poetry config repositories.<your-repository-name> <url-to-your-repository>poetry config http-basic.<your-repository-name> <username> <password>
- Publish the client with
poetry publish --build -r <your-repository-name>or, if for public PyPI, justpoetry publish --build
If you want to install this client into another project without publishing it (e.g. for development) then:
- If that project is using Poetry, you can simply do
poetry add <path-to-this-client>from that project - If that project is not using Poetry:
- Build a wheel with
poetry build -f wheel - Install that wheel from the other project
pip install <path-to-wheel>
- Build a wheel with
Mutating endpoints support idempotency via the X-Idempotency-Key header, so a retried request
settles at most once:
client = client.with_headers({"X-Idempotency-Key": "order-1234"})This package is generated — do not hand-edit files under recurso/. To regenerate after a spec
change (with the main recurso repo checked out as a
sibling directory, run from this repo's root):
pipx run openapi-python-client generate \
--path ../recur-so/cmd/api/openapi.yaml \
--config <(printf 'project_name_override: recurso\npackage_name_override: recurso\n') \
--output-path . \
--overwriteNote: the generator emits benign warnings for the GET /openapi.yaml and SAML-metadata endpoints
(non-JSON response bodies); those responses are simply omitted from the generated client.
After regenerating, re-apply the one intentional deviation from the generated output:
raise_on_unexpected_status must default to True in both clients in recurso/client.py
(the generator emits False, which makes API errors silently return None).
A no-network smoke test verifies the package imports and key endpoint signatures exist:
