register_track('tracking_number')
except DateProcessingError as exc:
raise serializers.ValidationError(str(exc))

# try to fetch an actual info about a tracking number
try:
    response: Dict = get_track_info('tracking_number')
except DateProcessingError as exc:
    raise serializers.ValidationError(str(exc))

accepted_packages = response.get('accepted', [])

# return packages info as a list of `PackageEntity` (dataclass instance) objects
# in a readable way with a represantion of carriers and countries as Django model instances

from track17.track17 import Track17Adapter


track17 = Track17Adapter()
response = track17.register('number1', 'number2')
response = track17.get_track_info('number1', 'number2')
