Introducing the Socket Python SDK
The initial version of the Socket Python SDK is now on PyPI, enabling developers to more easily interact with the Socket REST API in Python projects.
This is a GraphQL client for Python 3.7+.
Plays nicely with graphene
, graphql-core
, graphql-js
and any other GraphQL implementation compatible with the spec.
GQL architecture is inspired by React-Relay
and Apollo-Client
.
The complete documentation for GQL can be found at gql.readthedocs.io.
You can install GQL with all the optional dependencies using pip:
# Quotes may be required on certain shells such as zsh.
pip install "gql[all]"
NOTE: See also the documentation to install GQL with less extra dependencies depending on the transports you would like to use or for alternative installation methods.
from gql import gql, Client
from gql.transport.aiohttp import AIOHTTPTransport
# Select your transport with a defined url endpoint
transport = AIOHTTPTransport(url="https://countries.trevorblades.com/")
# Create a GraphQL client using the defined transport
client = Client(transport=transport, fetch_schema_from_transport=True)
# Provide a GraphQL query
query = gql(
"""
query getContinents {
continents {
code
name
}
}
"""
)
# Execute the query on the transport
result = client.execute(query)
print(result)
Executing the above code should output the following result:
$ python basic_example.py
{'continents': [{'code': 'AF', 'name': 'Africa'}, {'code': 'AN', 'name': 'Antarctica'}, {'code': 'AS', 'name': 'Asia'}, {'code': 'EU', 'name': 'Europe'}, {'code': 'NA', 'name': 'North America'}, {'code': 'OC', 'name': 'Oceania'}, {'code': 'SA', 'name': 'South America'}]}
WARNING: Please note that this basic example won't work if you have an asyncio event loop running. In some python environments (as with Jupyter which uses IPython) an asyncio event loop is created for you. In that case you should use instead the async usage example.
See CONTRIBUTING.md

We found that gql demonstrated a healthy version release cadence and project activity because the last version was released less than a year ago. It has 3 open source maintainers collaborating on the project.

Socket for GitHub automatically highlights issues in each pull request and monitors the health of all your open source dependencies. Discover the contents of your packages and block harmful activity before you install or update your dependencies.

Floating dependency ranges in npm can introduce instability and security risks into your project by allowing unverified or incompatible versions to be installed automatically, leading to unpredictable behavior and potential conflicts.

A new Rust RFC proposes "Trusted Publishing" for Crates.io, introducing short-lived access tokens via OIDC to improve security and reduce risks associated with long-lived API tokens.
