Ensure open-source compliance with Socket’s License Enforcement Beta. Set up your License Policy and secure your software!
VK is one of the major Russian-speaking social networks. PyVK is a no-nonsence boilerplate-free VK API library for Python. It can be used in server or client applications, scripts, or interactively for data retrieval and analysis, social media integration, automation, and fun.
>>> from pyvk import ClientAuth, p_docs, p_offline
>>> # Authorisation without tokens and stored passwords
>>> auth = ClientAuth(app_id=<...>, username=<...>, scope=p_docs | p_offline)
>>> auth.auth()
Password: <...>
>>> api = auth.api(version='5.21', lang='en')
>>> # Call API methods as if they were pythonic
>>> api.users.get(user_ids=[210700286], fields=['bdate'])
[{'id': 210700286,
'first_name': 'Lindsey',
'last_name': 'Stirling',
'bdate': '21.9.1986'}]
>>> # Fetch all items from paginated API responses with a single call
>>> from pyvk.helpers import reqn
>>> reqn(api.users.getFollowers, n=1000, user_id=53083705)
{'count': 2255643,
'items': [404278316,
372620717,
405001689,
...]}
>>> # Easy file uploading
>>> from pyvk.helpers.uploaders import WallPhotoUploader
>>> up = WallPhotoUploader(api)
>>> with open('cat.jpg', 'rb') as f:
>>> attach = up.upload(f, attach=True)
>>> api.wall.post(attachments=attach)
