Documentation

Email Module

Send emails using the SendLayer module:

from sendlayer import SendLayer

sendlayer = SendLayer(api_key='your-api-key')


# Send a complex email
response = sendlayer.Emails.send(
    sender={"email": "[e-mail]", "name": "Paulie Paloma"},
    to=[
        {'email': '[e-mail]', 'name': 'Recipient 1'},
        {'email': '[e-mail]', 'name': 'Recipient 2'}
    ],
    subject='Complex Email',
    html='<p>This is a <strong>test email</strong>!</p>',
    text='This is a test email!',
    cc=[{'email': '[e-mail]', 'name': 'CC Recipient'}],
    bcc=[{'email': '[e-mail]', 'name': 'BCC Recipient'}],
    reply_to=[{'email': '[e-mail]', 'name': 'Reply To'}],
    attachments=[{
        'path': 'path/to/file.pdf',
        'type': 'application/pdf',
    }]
)

Webhooks Module

from sendlayer import SendLayer

sendlayer = SendLayer(api_key='your-api-key')

# Create a webhook
# Webhook event options: bounce, click, open, unsubscribe, complaint, delivery

webhook = sendlayer.Webhooks.create(
    url='https://your-domain.com/webhook',
    event='open'
)

# Get all webhooks
webhooks = sendlayer.Webhooks.get()

# Delete a webhook
sendlayer.Webhooks.delete(webhook_id=123)

Events Module

from sendlayer import SendLayer
from datetime import datetime, timedelta

sendlayer = SendLayer(api_key='your-api-key')

# Get all events
events = sendlayer.Events.get()

# Get filtered events
events = sendlayer.Events.get(
    start_date=datetime.now() - timedelta(hours=4),
    end_date=datetime.now(),
    event='opened'
)

Error Handling

The SDK provides custom exceptions for better error handling:

from sendlayer import (
    SendLayerError,
    SendLayerAPIError,
)

try:
    response = sendlayer.Emails.send(...)
except SendLayerError as e:
    print(f"API error: {e.status_code} - {e.message}")
except SendLayerError:
    print("An unexpected error occurred")
