Python-funkwhale is a lightweight wrapper over the [Funkwhale](https://funkwhale.audio) API. Only dependent on [Requests,](https://2.python-requests.org/en/master/) the idea of this wrapper is to support as much of the [Funkwhale API](https://docs.funkwhale.audio/api.html) as possible and be ready for new additions without needing to add a single line of code. It supports a "magic" method of building API calls based in class attributes that will ensure new additions will work inmediately as soon as added to the server API.

## Installation

So far, the API wrapper is still considered unstable, a proper setup file is in the works. As soon as I can be sure everything works as expected, I will add a setup file here so it can be installed as a proper Pytohn package. For now, the only way to use this package is by copying the funkwhale folder in a directory present in os.path so it can be found during imports.

## usage

```
>>> from funkwhale import api
# Create the session instance (no login is performed at this step).
# Use the demo server and credentials.
>>> session = api.Session()
# Or provide your own data.
>>> session = api.Session(instance_url="https://demo.funkwhale.audio", username="demo", password="demo")
# Alternatively, if you already have a JWT token you can pass it to the session class
>>> session = api.Session(instance_url="https://demo.funkwhale.audio", token="xxxxxxxxx")
# Do a login.
>>> session.login()
# If username and password were provided, the login method generated already the JWT token. you can save this somewhere for passing it later.
>>> print(session.token)
xxxxxxxxx
# Create the API object, that will be responsible for calling the funkwhale's server.
>>> api = session.get_api()
# all API calls follow the format "path.to.api.method(key=value, other_key=other_value)" (where method can be get and post).
# Retrieve only 5 artists in the current instance.
>>> artists = api.artists.get(page_size=5)
# the data is always a dictionary and we can do something with it already.
>>> for i in artists["results"]:
...     print(i["name"])

# Some methods have been modified a little from the original API paths due to pytohn's syntax.
# For example, for retrieving all the libraries where an artist is added you should use /api/v1/artists/{id}/libraries
# but in python-funkwhale it will be translated as the following call, just removing the {id} part from the path and passing it as an argument to the function.
>>> libraries = api.artists.libraries.get(1)
>>> for i in libraries["results"]:
...     print(i["name"])
...
Demo library
>>>
```
