Vonage Python SDK
The Vonage Python SDK Package vonage
provides a streamlined interface for using Vonage APIs in Python projects. This package includes the Vonage
class, which simplifies API interactions.
The Vonage class in this package serves as the main entry point for using Vonage APIs. It abstracts away complexities with authentication, HTTP requests and more.
For full API documentation refer to the Vonage Developer documentation.
Installation
Install the package using pip:
pip install vonage
Usage
from vonage import Vonage, Auth, HttpClientOptions
auth = Auth(api_key='your_api_key', api_secret='your_api_secret')
options = HttpClientOptions(api_host='api.nexmo.com', timeout=30)
vonage = Vonage(auth=auth, http_client_options=options)
The Vonage class provides access to various Vonage APIs through its properties. For example, to use methods to call the SMS API:
from vonage_sms import SmsMessage
message = SmsMessage(to='1234567890', from_='Vonage', text='Hello World')
response = client.sms.send(message)
print(response.model_dump_json(exclude_unset=True))
You can also access the underlying HttpClient
instance through the http_client
property:
user_agent = vonage.http_client.user_agent
