django-connectwise

django-connectwise

Django app for working with ConnectWise. Defines models (tickets, members, companies, etc.) and callbacks.

Requirements

• Python 3.5
• Django 2.0

Other versions may work; we haven't tried.

Installation

From PyPI:

pip install django-connectwise

From source:

git clone [e-mail]:KerkhoffTechnologies/django-connectwise.git
cd django-connectwise
python setup.py install

Usage

• Add to INSTALLED_APPS

  INSTALLED_APPS = [
      ...
      'djconnectwise',
      ...
  ]
  

• Add to urls.py:

  re_path(
      r'^callback/',  # This can be whatever you want.
      include('djconnectwise.urls', namespace='connectwise')
  ),
  

• Add to settings:

  CONNECTWISE_SERVER_URL = 'https://connectwise.example.com'
  CONNECTWISE_CREDENTIALS = {
      'company_id': 'your company ID',
      'api_public_key': 'your API user public key',
      'api_private_key': 'your API user private key',
  }
  CONNECTWISE_TICKET_PATH = 'v4_6_release/services/system_io/router/openrecord.rails'
  def djconnectwise_configuration():
      return {
          'timeout': 30.0,  # Network timeout in seconds
          'batch_size': 50,  # Number of records to fetch in each request
          'max_attempts': 3,  # Number of times to make a request before failing
          'callback_url': '{}?id='.format(
              reverse('connectwise:callback')
          ),
          'callback_host': '{}://{}'.format(
              'http' if DEBUG else 'https',
              'djconnectwise-host.example.com'
          ),
      }
  DJCONNECTWISE_CONF_CALLABLE = djconnectwise_configuration
  

  For ConnectWise Cloud users, CONNECTWISE_SERVER_URL can be just i.e. https://na.myconnectwise.net- the library changes to the api-region domain automatically.

  The DJCONNECTWISE_CONF_CALLABLE function should return a dictionary with the fields shown above. It's a callable so that it can fetch settings at runtime- for example from Constance settings.

• Sync objects with this management command: cwsync. This will take a very long time if there are many objects to fetch.

• Register your callbacks with the management command: callbacks_registered

• Use standard Django model signals to see when objects change.

• To control how user avatar thumbnails are stored, add settings from easy-thumbnails.

To de-register your callbacks, use the callbacks_deleted management command.
