formance-sdk-python

🏗 Welcome to your new SDK! 🏗

It has been generated successfully based on your OpenAPI spec. However, it is not yet ready for production use. Here are some next steps:

Summary

Formance Stack API: Open, modular foundation for unique payments flows

Introduction

This API is documented in OpenAPI format.

Authentication

Formance Stack offers one forms of authentication:

  • OAuth2 OAuth2 - an open protocol to allow secure authorization in a simple and standard method from web, mobile and desktop applications.

Table of Contents

SDK Installation

The SDK can be installed using the pip package manager, with dependencies and metadata stored in the setup.py file.

pip install formance-sdk-python

SDK Example Usage

Example

import sdk
from sdk.models import shared

s = sdk.SDK(
    security=shared.Security(
        client_id="<YOUR_CLIENT_ID_HERE>",
        client_secret="<YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET_HERE>",
    ),
)


res = s.get_versions()

if res.get_versions_response is not None:
    # handle response
    pass

Available Resources and Operations

Available methods

Error Handling

Handling errors in this SDK should largely match your expectations. All operations return a response object or raise an exception.

By default, an API error will raise a errors.SDKError exception, which has the following properties:

Property Type Description
.status_code int The HTTP status code
.message str The error message
.raw_response httpx.Response The raw HTTP response
.body str The response content

When custom error responses are specified for an operation, the SDK may also raise their associated exception. You can refer to respective Errors tables in SDK docs for more details on possible exception types for each operation. For example, the create_transactions method may raise the following exceptions:

Error Type Status Code Content Type
errors.ErrorResponse default application/json
errors.SDKError 4XX, 5XX */*

Example

import sdk
from sdk.models import errors, operations, shared

s = sdk.SDK(
    security=shared.Security(
        client_id="<YOUR_CLIENT_ID_HERE>",
        client_secret="<YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET_HERE>",
    ),
)

res = None
try:
    res = s.ledger.v1.create_transactions(request=operations.CreateTransactionsRequest(
    transactions=shared.Transactions(
        transactions=[
            shared.TransactionData(
                postings=[
                    shared.Posting(
                        amount=100,
                        asset='COIN',
                        destination='users:002',
                        source='users:001',
                    ),
                    shared.Posting(
                        amount=100,
                        asset='COIN',
                        destination='users:002',
                        source='users:001',
                    ),
                    shared.Posting(
                        amount=100,
                        asset='COIN',
                        destination='users:002',
                        source='users:001',
                    ),
                ],
                reference='ref:001',
            ),
        ],
    ),
    ledger='ledger001',
))

except errors.ErrorResponse as e:
    # handle exception
    raise(e)
except errors.SDKError as e:
    # handle exception
    raise(e)

Server Selection

Select Server by Index

You can override the default server globally by passing a server index to the server_idx: int optional parameter when initializing the SDK client instance. The selected server will then be used as the default on the operations that use it. This table lists the indexes associated with the available servers:

# Server Variables
0 http://localhost None
1 https://{organization}.{environment}.formance.cloud environment (default is sandbox), organization (default is orgID-stackID)

Example

import sdk
from sdk.models import shared

s = sdk.SDK(
    server_idx=1,
    security=shared.Security(
        client_id="<YOUR_CLIENT_ID_HERE>",
        client_secret="<YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET_HERE>",
    ),
)


res = s.get_versions()

if res.get_versions_response is not None:
    # handle response
    pass

Variables

Some of the server options above contain variables. If you want to set the values of those variables, the following optional parameters are available when initializing the SDK client instance:

  • environment: models.ServerEnvironment
  • organization: str

Override Server URL Per-Client

The default server can also be overridden globally by passing a URL to the server_url: str optional parameter when initializing the SDK client instance. For example:

import sdk
from sdk.models import shared

s = sdk.SDK(
    server_url="http://localhost",
    security=shared.Security(
        client_id="<YOUR_CLIENT_ID_HERE>",
        client_secret="<YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET_HERE>",
    ),
)


res = s.get_versions()

if res.get_versions_response is not None:
    # handle response
    pass

Custom HTTP Client

The Python SDK makes API calls using the requests HTTP library. In order to provide a convenient way to configure timeouts, cookies, proxies, custom headers, and other low-level configuration, you can initialize the SDK client with a custom requests.Session object.

For example, you could specify a header for every request that this sdk makes as follows:

import sdk
import requests

http_client = requests.Session()
http_client.headers.update({'x-custom-header': 'someValue'})
s = sdk.SDK(client=http_client)

Authentication

Per-Client Security Schemes

This SDK supports the following security scheme globally:

Name Type Scheme
client_id client_secret oauth2 OAuth2 Client Credentials Flow

You can set the security parameters through the security optional parameter when initializing the SDK client instance. For example:

import sdk
from sdk.models import shared

s = sdk.SDK(
    security=shared.Security(
        client_id="<YOUR_CLIENT_ID_HERE>",
        client_secret="<YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET_HERE>",
    ),
)


res = s.get_versions()

if res.get_versions_response is not None:
    # handle response
    pass

Development

Maturity

This SDK is in beta, and there may be breaking changes between versions without a major version update. Therefore, we recommend pinning usage to a specific package version. This way, you can install the same version each time without breaking changes unless you are intentionally looking for the latest version.

Contributions

While we value open-source contributions to this SDK, this library is generated programmatically. Feel free to open a PR or a Github issue as a proof of concept and we'll do our best to include it in a future release!
