Requirements

Installation

pip install sendwithus

Usage

For all examples, assume:

import sendwithus
api = sendwithus.api(api_key='YOUR-API-KEY')

Error Handling

By default, the API calls return a response object. However, you can use sendwithus.api(api_key='YOUR-API-KEY', raise_errors=True) which will raise the following errors:

  • AuthenticationError - Caused by an invalid API key
  • APIError - Caused by an invalid API request (4xx error)
  • ServerError - Caused by a server error (5xx error)

Errors can be imported from the sendwithus.exceptions module.

Templates

Get Your Templates

api.templates()

Get a Specific Template

api.get_template(
    'YOUR-TEMPLATE-ID'
)

Get a Specific Template Version

api.get_template(

    version='YOUR-VERSION-ID'
)

Create a Template

api.create_template(
    name='Email Name',

Customers

Get a Customer

api.customer_details(
    'customer@example.com'
)

Create/Update Customer Locale

You can use the same endpoint to create or update a customer. This is primarily used to associate a locale with an email address so Sendwithus can automatically send them the correct template. Note that if your templates are only in one language then you don't need to use this feature.

api.customer_create(
    'customer@example.com',
    locale="fr-FR"
)

Delete a Customer

api.customer_delete(
    'customer@example.com'
)

api.snippets()

Get a Specific Snippet

api.get_snippet(
    'snp_1234asdf1234'
)

Create a Snippet

api.create_snippet(
    name='My Snippet',
    body='<h1>Snippets!</h1>'
)

Update a Snippet

    api.create_translation_file(
        `my_translation_tag`,
        f.read()
    )

Render

Render a Template with data

The Render API allows you to render a template with data, using the exact same rendering workflow that Sendwithus uses when delivering your email. Strict is set to False as a default, if Strict=True this API call will fail on any missing email_data.

api.render(
    email_id='YOUR-TEMPLATE-ID',
    email_data={
        'amount': '$12.00'
    },
    locale='fr-FR',
    version_name='French-Version',
    strict=False
)

Batch API

Sendwithus' API has a batch endpoint that can take multiple requests and execute them concurrently. Note that Sendwithus recommends keeping batch requests to 10 items or less.

Creating and Executing a Batch Request

api = sendwithus.api('YOUR-API-KEY')
batch = api.start_batch()

emails = [
    'user+1@example.com',
    'user+2@example.com',
    # ...
    'user+10@example.com'
]

# Generate the batch request
for email in emails:
    batch.send(
        email_id='YOUR-TEMPLATE-ID',
        recipient={
            'address': email
        }
    )

print batch.command_length()  # show number of items in the batch request
results = batch.execute()     # returns a `requests` Response Object

Expected Responses

Success

    >>> r.status_code
    200

    >>> r.json().get('success')
    True

    >>> r.json().get('status')
    u'OK'

    >>> r.json().get('receipt_id')
    u'numeric-receipt-id'

Error cases

  • malformed request
    >>> r.status_code
    400
  • bad API key
    >>> r.status_code
    403

Run Tests

Use tox to run the tests:

tox

Testing Multiple Python Versions

This assumes you have tox installed and used pyenv to install multiple versions of python.

Once all the supported python versions are installed simply run:

tox

This will run the tests against all the versions specified in tox.ini.

Troubleshooting

General Troubleshooting

  • Enable debug mode
  • Make sure you're using the latest Python client
  • Capture the response data and check your logs — often this will have the exact error

Enable Debug Mode

Debug mode prints out the underlying request information as well as the data payload that gets sent to Sendwithus. You will most likely find this information in your logs. To enable it, simply put DEBUG=True as a parameter when instantiating the API object. Use the debug mode to compare the data payload getting sent to Sendwithus' API docs.

import sendwithus
api = sendwithus.api(api_key='YOUR-API-KEY', DEBUG=True)

Response Ranges

Sendwithus' API typically sends responses back in these ranges:

  • 2xx &emdash; Successful Request
  • 4xx &emdash; Failed Request (Client error)
  • 5xx &emdash; Failed Request (Server error)

If you're receiving an error in the 400 response range follow these steps:

  • Double check the data and ID's getting passed to Sendwithus
  • Ensure your API key is correct
  • Log and check the body of the response
