PocketBase Python SDK

Tests Coverage Status

Python client SDK for the PocketBase backend.

This is in early development, and at first is just a translation of the javascript lib using HTTPX.


Installation

Install PocketBase using PIP:

python3 -m pip install pocketbase

Usage

The rule of thumb here is just to use it as you would the javascript lib, but in a pythonic way of course!

from pocketbase import PocketBase  # Client also works the same
from pocketbase.client import FileUpload

client = PocketBase('http://127.0.0.1:8090')

# authenticate as regular user
user_data = client.collection("users").auth_with_password(
    "user@example.com", "0123456789")
# check if user token is valid
user_data.is_valid

# or as admin
admin_data = client.admins.auth_with_password("test@example.com", "0123456789")

# check if admin token is valid
admin_data.is_valid

# list and filter "example" collection records
result = client.collection("example").get_list(
    1, 20, {"filter": 'status = true && created > "2022-08-01 10:00:00"'})

# create record and upload file to image field
result = client.collection("example").create(
    {
        "status": "true",
        "image": FileUpload(("image.png", open("image.png", "rb"))),
    })

# and much more...

More detailed API docs and copy-paste examples could be found in the API documentation for each service. Just remember to 'pythonize it' 🙃.

Development

These are the requirements for local development:

You can install locally:

poetry install

Or can build and generate a package:

poetry build

But if you are using only PIP, use this command:

python3 -m pip install -e .

Tests

To execute the tests use this command:

poetry run pytest

Sandbox integration testing

A lot of real-world integration test against a sandboxed pocketbase instance will be included in the pytest when the sandbox is running (on 127.0.0.1:8090) to start the sandbox follow the following steps:

export TMP_EMAIL_DIR=`mktemp -d`  # Export temp dir used for sendmail sandbox
bash ./tests/integration/pocketbase     # Run the pocketbase sandbox (automatically downloads the latest pocketbase instance)
pytest  # Run test including sandbox API integration tests
