Getting Started
Basic Usage
import weglide_client
from weglide_client.rest import ApiException
from pprint import pprint
configuration = weglide_client.Configuration(
host="https://api.weglide.org"
)
with weglide_client.ApiClient(configuration) as api_client:
airport_api = weglide_client.AirportApi(api_client)
try:
airport_id = 161522
api_response = airport_api.get_airport_v1_airport_id_get(id=airport_id)
print("Airport information:")
pprint(api_response)
except ApiException as e:
print(f"Exception when calling AirportApi: {e}")
Authentication
For endpoints that require authentication, you'll need to provide an API token:
import weglide_client
from weglide_client.rest import ApiException
configuration = weglide_client.Configuration(
host="https://api.weglide.org",
api_key={"Authorization": "YOUR_API_KEY"},
api_key_prefix={"Authorization": "Bearer"}
)
with weglide_client.ApiClient(configuration) as api_client:
flight_api = weglide_client.FlightApi(api_client)
Environment Variables
You can also configure the client using environment variables:
import os
import weglide_client
os.environ["WEGLIDE_API_URL"] = "https://api.weglide.org"
os.environ["WEGLIDE_API_KEY"] = "YOUR_API_KEY"
configuration = weglide_client.Configuration()
configuration.host = os.environ.get("WEGLIDE_API_URL", "https://api.weglide.org")
if "WEGLIDE_API_KEY" in os.environ:
configuration.api_key = {"Authorization": os.environ["WEGLIDE_API_KEY"]}
configuration.api_key_prefix = {"Authorization": "Bearer"}
Available API Endpoints
The client provides access to the following WeGlide API endpoints:
- Achievement API: Access user achievements
- Aircraft API: Manage aircraft information
- Airport API: Access airport data
- Auth API: Handle authentication
- Badge API: Access badge information
- Club API: Manage club data
- Comment API: Handle flight comments
- Competition API: Access competition data
- Flight API: Manage flight data and uploads
- User API: Manage user profiles
- Waypoint API: Access waypoint information

Examples
Fetching Flights
import weglide_client
from weglide_client.rest import ApiException
configuration = weglide_client.Configuration()
with weglide_client.ApiClient(configuration) as api_client:
flight_api = weglide_client.FlightApi(api_client)
try:
flights = flight_api.get_flights_v1_flight_get(limit=10)
for flight in flights:
print(f"Flight ID: {flight.id}, Pilot: {flight.user.name}, Date: {flight.date}")
except ApiException as e:
print(f"Exception when calling FlightApi: {e}")
Working with Airports
import weglide_client
from weglide_client.rest import ApiException
configuration = weglide_client.Configuration()
with weglide_client.ApiClient(configuration) as api_client:
airport_api = weglide_client.AirportApi(api_client)
try:
airports = airport_api.search_airports_v1_airport_search_get(
query="Munich",
limit=5
)
for airport in airports:
print(f"Airport: {airport.name}, ICAO: {airport.icao}, Elevation: {airport.elevation}m")
except ApiException as e:
print(f"Exception when calling AirportApi: {e}")
Testing
Run the tests using unittest:
