api access models and tools

Accessing APIs open-endily is an easy affair. pip install requests, pass in your data get data back. But the slight differences and demands of different API creating code that’s structured, re-usable and simple proves difficult.

nap hopes to help.

# note/client.py
from nap.resources import ResourceModel, Field


class Note(ResourceModel):

    pk = Field(api_name='id', resource_id=True)
    title = Field()
    content = Field()

    class Meta:
        root_url = 'http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/'
        resource_name = 'note'

n = Note(title='Some Title', content="some content")

# POST http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/note/
n.save()

n = Note.get('note/1/')
# Some Title
n.title

# GET http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/note/1/
n = Note.objects.lookup(pk=1)
n.title = "New Title"
n.content = "I sure do love naps!"

# PUT http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/note/1/
n.save()

n = Note.objects.get('note/1/')
# "New Title"
n.title

nap aims to:

  • Support Read (GET) and Write (POST/PUT/PATCH)
  • Required little to no configuration needed for to-spec REST APIs
  • Be easily configurable to fit any REST-like API
  • Be customizable to fit even edgier use cases
