Unofficial Copper CRM SDK written in Python
https://developer.copper.com/?version=latest#intro
To make any API via the SDK, you first need to create an instance of the Copper class, configured correctly with your email and Copper API token. This is essentially the entrypoint into using the SDK.
from copper_sdk import Copper
copper = Copper(
email='[email protected]',
token='abc123',
)All the root entities modelled by the Copper API are modelled as separate classes in this SDK. The currently supported root entities are:
- Users
- Activities
- Companies
- People
- Leads
- Opportunities
- Custom Fields
Each entity has a corresponding python class with the same name and an entrypoint to each of the entities can be retrieved via the main SDK entrypoint, e.g. to make API calls relating to activities:
from copper_sdk import Copper
copper = Copper(
email='[email protected]',
token='abc123',
)
all_activities = copper.activities.list()This library does not do any translation of request and response bodies, and merely maps JSON payloads to and from python dictionaries. Therefore, you can construct request bodies as dictionaries that correspond directly with the JSON request bodies defined within the official Copper API documentation. And response bodies will be dictionaries directly mapping to the structure of JSON responses as per the official Copper API documentation. Please refer to the documentation for details for the structure of request and response bodies.
An example that demonstrates supplying a request body when searching for activities:
all_activities = copper.activities.list({
page_number: 2,
page_size: 50
})This library does not currently perform any testing of request bodies and response bodies. At the moment python dictionaries are mapped directly to and from JSON. So, it's really up to users of the library to ensure request bodies are formed as dictionaries as per the official Copper API documentation. The scope of the tests is currently to simply make sure the core of the library behaves as expected (e.g. constructs requests using the required HTTP headers).
To force the API to make actual calls, delete the cached responses in the tests/vcr_cassettes directory.
