#Dependencies

It was written for Python 3.6+
Depends on the requests module

NOTE:

Version 4.0.5 we're changing the version to match the version of Sendy that this is most recently updated for. When Sendy introduces changes that require a lib update, we will update the version to match the Sendy version.
Version 0.2 now requires api_key varaible for all API calls. This is a required change to the functionality of Sendy as of version 4.0.4. This is a potentially breaking code change. Please update your code to always provide the API key before upgrading to sendypy v0.2.
Version 0.1.3b adds the new "title" variable to the create_campaign API call. It effects the default ordering of variables in the call. If you're upgrading from a previous version please ensure that you account for the new ordering of variables. This new variable was added in Sendy v2.1.2.6

#Installation

PIP:

pip install sendypy

Basic Manual Install:

$ python setup.py build
$ sudo python setup.py install

Alternative Install (Manually):

Place sendy directory in your Python path. Either in your Python installs site-packages directory or set your $PYTHONPATH environment variable to include a directory where the impersonate directory lives.

#Use

All the variables and response values are described in the Sendy API docs

Usage is simple :

from sendy.api import SendyAPI
api = SendyAPI(
     host='https://your-sendy-install.com/sendy/',

You can also provide the optional debug variable (defaults to False). This will print debug into to stdout when sending a request to your Sendy install.
