GoCardless Pro Python client library
A Python client for interacting with the GoCardless Pro API.
|pypi-badge|
Tested against Python 3.8, 3.9, 3.10 and 3.11.
"Getting Started" guide <https://developer.gocardless.com/getting-started/api/introduction/?lang=python>
_ with copy and paste Python code samplesAPI reference
_
Install from PyPI:
.. code:: bash
$ pip install gocardless_pro
Usage
Create a Client
instance, providing your access token and the environment
you want to use:
.. code:: python
import gocardless_pro
token = os.environ['ACCESS_TOKEN']
client = gocardless_pro.Client(access_token=token, environment='live')
Access API endpoints using the corresponding methods on the client object:
.. code:: python
# Create a new customer. We automatically add idempotency keys to requests to create
# resources, stopping duplicates accidentally getting created if something goes wrong
# with the API (e.g. networking problems) - see https://developer.gocardless.com/api
# -reference/#making-requests-idempotency-keys for details
customer = client.customers.create(params={'email': 'jane@example.com'})
# Fetch a payment by its ID
payment = client.payments.get("PA123")
# Loop through a page of payments, printing each payment's amount
for payment in client.payments.list().records:
decimal_amount = decimal.Decimal(payment.amount) / 100
print('Payment for £{0}'.format(decimal_amount))
# Create a mandate PDF in a specific language
client.mandate_pdfs.create(
params={'links': {'mandate': 'MD00001234XYZ'}},
headers={'Accept-Language': 'fr'}
)
Rate limit response headers can be read:
.. code:: python
# Note these properties will be None until you make an API request with the client
client.rate_limit.limit
client.rate_limit.remaining
client.rate_limit.reset

Running tests
-------------
First, install the development dependencies:
.. code:: bash
$ pip install -r requirements-dev.txt
To run the test suite against the current Python version, run ``pytest``.
To run the test suite against multiple Python versions, run ``tox``.
If you don't have all versions of Python installed, you can run the tests in
a Docker container by running ``make``.
