Restypy

Pythonic REST client

The code interacting with the remote API reads just like standard Python!

Restypy uses the awesome 'requests' library under the hood

NOTE

Since REST APIs may contain URLs that may be invalid method names in Python, you will have to use the path='1nvalidpath' workaround to build the path. This approach is shown in the following example.

Examples

from restypy import API
github = API('https://api.github.com')
# GET : https://api.github.com/users/simula67/events
response = github.users(path='simula67').events()
# Response is a simple 'requests' response
print response.json()
# For HTTP methods other than GET, add a keyword argument 'method'. Rest of the arguments are passed to 'requests'
httpbin = API('http://httpbin.org')
print httpbin.post(method='post', data={'test': 'hi'}).text
