Zucker is a Python library for Sugar CRM with a simple, readable API. Features:
- No dependencies (except for an HTTP client of your choice)
- Native support for both synchronous and asyncio paradigms
- Schema introspection that extracts supported fields from a Sugar server to speed up development
- ORM-like feel that abstracts away details of the upstream API
- Fully type-checked (internal and external code)
To get started, have a look at the Documentation. If you find that something is missing, feel free to open an issue.
First, connect to a Sugar server. Then you can define a model that matches what you have on the backend (use the introspection features to speed up this process!):
from zucker import model, RequestsClient
crm = RequestsClient("https://crm.example.com", "zucker", "password")
class Contact(model.SyncModule, client=crm, api_name="Contacts"):
lead_source = model.StringField()
phone_work = model.StringField()
contacts = Contact.find(Contact.lead_source == "Word of mouth")
for contact in contacts:
print(contact.phone_work)
print(",".join(contact.phone_work for contact in contacts[:3]))
Again, see the Documentation for more examples.
Zucker also supports introspecting a server, which will list the available modules and fields. Use it like this:
$ python -m zucker.codegen -b "https://crm.example.com" -u "username" -c "my_client" -P inspect
See python -m zucker.codegen --help
for detailed usage information.
