kavahq-api 0.2.5

wrapper over kavahq.com API

Installation

pip install kavahq-api

Usage

import kavahq
import keyring
import getpass

SERVICE = 'kavahq-api'
username = 'imposeren'
password = keyring.get_password(SERVICE, username)
if password is None:
    password = getpass.getpass()
    keyring.set_password(SERVICE, username, password)

api = kavahq.KavaApi(username=username, password=password, company_name='42 Coffee Cups')

# almost all attributes of Api return instances of ApiObject which do not query results until they are required:
projects_api = api.projects  # no requests made
first_project_api = projects_api.children[0]  # project list api called but project details are not
first_project_estimate_api = first_project_api.estimate  # zero apis called
first_project_api.estimate['avg_time_per_cp']  # estimates api called and result is returned

# you can also get all results of api as a dict:
dict(first_project_api)

# you can also get specific project api by it's slug:
kava_project_api = api.projects.get('kavyarnya')
dict(kava_project_api)
# {u'days_num_bugs_showing': X, ...}

dict(kava_project_api.estimate)
# {u'avg_time_per_cp': u'2.1'...}
kava_project_api.properties['owner']
# u'akhavr'

# as you can see api calls can be "chained":
api.projects.estimate  # ApiObject for /api/project/estimate
api.projects.properties  # ApiObject for /api/project/properties

# but some attributes of ApiObject "break chaining":
api.projects.children[0].estimate.response  # returns dict with response from API
api.projects.get  # method to get projects by slug, (see examples above)
api.projects.keys()  # will return keys of response dict


# alternate way to call specific api:
dict(api.projects.estimate.get(project='kavyarnya', company='42 Coffee Cups'))
# this is equivivalent to:
api.company_name = '42 Coffee Cups')
dict(api.projects.get('kavyarnya').estimate)
