**personio-py** is a lightweight [Personio](https://www.personio.de/) API client library for Python. Also, it's pretty intuitive to use. But don't take my word for it, please have a look:

```python
>>> from personio_py import Personio
>>> p = Personio(client_id='***', client_secret='***')
>>> ada = p.search_first("Ada")
>>> ada.last_name
'Lovelace'
>>> absences = p.get_absences(ada)
>>> len(absences)
12
>>> dict(absences[0])
{'id': 42, 'status': 'approved', 'start_date': '2020-08-01', 'end_date': '2020-08-16', ...}
```

**personio-py** aims to provide Python function wrappers and object mappings for all endpoints of the [Personio REST API](https://developer.personio.de/reference). Because personio-py is a third party library, and the REST API may change from time to time, we cannot guarantee that all functions are covered, but we try our best.

If something appears to be broken, please have a look at the [open issues](https://github.com/at-gmbh/personio-py/issues) and vote for an existing issue or create a new one, if you can't find an issue that describes your problem.

**📖 Documentation is available at [at-gmbh.github.io/personio-py](https://at-gmbh.github.io/personio-py/)**

## Features

* Aims to cover all functions of the Personio API (work in progress)
* Python function wrappers for all API endpoints as part of the Personio class
* Object mappings for all API resources, e.g. an Employee is an object with properties for all the information that is provided by the REST API.
* Completely transparent handling of authentication and key rotation
* Support for Type Hints
* Only one dependency: [requests](https://pypi.org/project/requests/)

## Getting Started

The package is available on [PyPI](https://pypi.org/project/personio-py/) and can be installed with

    pip install personio-py

Now you can `import personio_py` and start coding. Please have a look at the [User Guide](https://at-gmbh.github.io/personio-py/guide.html) and the [Examples](https://at-gmbh.github.io/personio-py/examples.html) section for more details.

## Contributing

Contributions are very welcome! For our contribution guidelines, please have a look at [CONTRIBUTING.md](./CONTRIBUTING.md).

This project uses [Poetry](https://python-poetry.org/) for dependency management and packaging. To set up your local development environment, please install Poetry, then run

    poetry install

This installs the package together with all development dependencies (test, linter and docs groups).

This project is intended to be used as library, so there is no command line interface or stuff like that.

We use `pytest` as test framework. To execute the tests, please run

    poetry run pytest tests

To build a distribution package (sdist & wheel), please use

    poetry build

this will create the source distribution and wheel in the `dist` folder.

Before contributing code, please set up the pre-commit hooks to reduce errors and ensure consistency

    pip install -U pre-commit && pre-commit install

### PyPI Release

This project is released on [PyPI](https://pypi.org/project/personio-py/). Most of the tedious steps that are required to test & publish your release are automated by [CI pipelines](https://github.com/at-gmbh/personio-py/actions). All you have to do is to write your code and when the time comes to make a release, please follow these steps:

* update the program version in [`pyproject.toml`](./pyproject.toml) (the `version` field in the `[project]` section)
* write a summary of your changes in [`CHANGELOG.md`](./CHANGELOG.md)
* add a tag on the master branch with the new version number preceded by the letter `v`, e.g. for version 1.0.0 the tag would be `v1.0.0`. To tag the head of the current branch, use `git tag v1.0.0`
* push your changes to github and don't forget to push the tag with `git push origin v1.0.0`
* now have a look at the [release pipeline](https://github.com/at-gmbh/personio-py/actions?query=workflow%3Arelease) on GitHub. If it finishes without errors, you can find your release on [TestPyPI](https://test.pypi.org/project/personio-py). Please verify that your release works as expected.
* Now for the live deployment on PyPI. To avoid mistakes, this is only triggered, when a release is published on GitHub first. Please have a look at the [Releases](https://github.com/at-gmbh/personio-py/releases) now; there should be a draft release with your version number (this was created by the CI pipeline which also made the TestPyPI release). Edit the draft release, copy the text you added to [`CHANGELOG.md`](./CHANGELOG.md) into the description field and publish it.
* After you publish the release, the [deploy pipeline](https://github.com/at-gmbh/personio-py/actions?query=workflow%3Adeploy) is triggered on GitHub. It will publish the release directly to [PyPI](https://pypi.org/project/personio-py/) where everyone can enjoy your latest features.

## API Functions
