Codat's Commerce API enables you to pull up-date-date commerce data from several leading payments, point-of-sale, and eCommerce systems. You can view your SMB customers' products, orders, payments, payouts, disputes, and more - all standardized to our Commerce data model.
The SDK can be installed with either pip or poetry package managers.
PIP is the default package installer for Python, enabling easy installation and management of packages from PyPI via the command line.
pip install codat-commercePoetry is a modern tool that simplifies dependency management and package publishing by using a single pyproject.toml file to handle project metadata and dependencies.

Generally, the SDK will work well with most IDEs out of the box. However, when using PyCharm, you can enjoy much better integration with Pydantic by installing an additional plugin.
Some of the endpoints in this SDK support retries. If you use the SDK without any configuration, it will fall back to the default retry strategy provided by the API. However, the default retry strategy can be overridden on a per-operation basis, or across the entire SDK.
To change the default retry strategy for a single API call, simply provide a RetryConfig object to the call:
from codat_commerce import CodatCommerce
from codatcommerce.utils import BackoffStrategy, RetryConfig
s = CodatCommerce(
auth_header="Basic BASE_64_ENCODED(API_KEY)",
)
res = s.customers.get(request={
"company_id": "8a210b68-6988-11ed-a1eb-0242ac120002",
"connection_id": "2e9d2c44-f675-40ba-8049-353bfcb5e171",
"customer_id": "<value>",
},
RetryConfig("backoff", BackoffStrategy(1, 50, 1.1, 100), False))
if res is not None:
# handle response
passIf you'd like to override the default retry strategy for all operations that support retries, you can use the retry_config optional parameter when initializing the SDK:
from codat_commerce import CodatCommerce
from codatcommerce.utils import BackoffStrategy, RetryConfig
s = CodatCommerce(
retry_config=RetryConfig("backoff", BackoffStrategy(1, 50, 1.1, 100), False),
auth_header="Basic BASE_64_ENCODED(API_KEY)",
)
res = s.customers.get(request={
"company_id": "8a210b68-6988-11ed-a1eb-0242ac120002",
"connection_id": "2e9d2c44-f675-40ba-8049-353bfcb5e171",
"customer_id": "<value>",
})
if res is not None:
# handle response
passHandling errors in this SDK should largely match your expectations. All operations return a response object or raise an error. If Error objects are specified in your OpenAPI Spec, the SDK will raise the appropriate Error type.
| Error Object | Status Code | Content Type |
|---|---|---|
| models.ErrorMessage | 401,402,403,404,409,429,500,503 | application/json |
| models.SDKError | 4xx-5xx | / |
from codat_commerce import CodatCommerce, models
s = CodatCommerce(
auth_header="Basic BASE_64_ENCODED(API_KEY)",
)
res = None
try:
res = s.customers.get(request={
"company_id": "8a210b68-6988-11ed-a1eb-0242ac120002",
"connection_id": "2e9d2c44-f675-40ba-8049-353bfcb5e171",
"customer_id": "<value>",
})
if res is not None:
# handle response
pass
except models.ErrorMessage as e:
# handle e.data: models.ErrorMessageData
raise(e)
except models.SDKError as e:
# handle exception
raise(e)You can override the default server globally by passing a server index to the server_idx: int optional parameter when initializing the SDK client instance. The selected server will then be used as the default on the operations that use it. This table lists the indexes associated with the available servers:
| # | Server | Variables |
|---|---|---|
| 0 | https://api.codat.io |
None |
from codat_commerce import CodatCommerce
s = CodatCommerce(
server_idx=0,
auth_header="Basic BASE_64_ENCODED(API_KEY)",
)
res = s.customers.get(request={
"company_id": "8a210b68-6988-11ed-a1eb-0242ac120002",
"connection_id": "2e9d2c44-f675-40ba-8049-353bfcb5e171",
"customer_id": "<value>",
})
if res is not None:
# handle response
passThe default server can also be overridden globally by passing a URL to the server_url: str optional parameter when initializing the SDK client instance. For example:
from codat_commerce import CodatCommerce
s = CodatCommerce(
server_url="https://api.codat.io",
auth_header="Basic BASE_64_ENCODED(API_KEY)",
)
res = s.customers.get(request={
"company_id": "8a210b68-6988-11ed-a1eb-0242ac120002",
"connection_id": "2e9d2c44-f675-40ba-8049-353bfcb5e171",
"customer_id": "<value>",
})
if res is not None:
# handle response
passThe Python SDK makes API calls using the httpx HTTP library. In order to provide a convenient way to configure timeouts, cookies, proxies, custom headers, and other low-level configuration, you can initialize the SDK client with your own HTTP client instance.
Depending on whether you are using the sync or async version of the SDK, you can pass an instance of HttpClient or AsyncHttpClient respectively, which are Protocol's ensuring that the client has the necessary methods to make API calls.
This allows you to wrap the client with your own custom logic, such as adding custom headers, logging, or error handling, or you can just pass an instance of httpx.Client or httpx.AsyncClient directly.
For example, you could specify a header for every request that this sdk makes as follows:
from codat_commerce import CodatCommerce
import httpx
http_client = httpx.Client(headers={"x-custom-header": "someValue"})
s = CodatCommerce(client=http_client)or you could wrap the client with your own custom logic:
from codat_commerce import CodatCommerce
from codat_commerce.httpclient import AsyncHttpClient
import httpx
class CustomClient(AsyncHttpClient):
client: AsyncHttpClient
def __init__(self, client: AsyncHttpClient):
self.client = client
async def send(
self,
request: httpx.Request,
*,
stream: bool = False,
auth: Union[
httpx._types.AuthTypes, httpx._client.UseClientDefault, None
] = httpx.USE_CLIENT_DEFAULT,
follow_redirects: Union[
bool, httpx._client.UseClientDefault
] = httpx.USE_CLIENT_DEFAULT,
) -> httpx.Response:
request.headers["Client-Level-Header"] = "added by client"
return await self.client.send(
request, stream=stream, auth=auth, follow_redirects=follow_redirects
)
def build_request(
self,
method: str,
url: httpx._types.URLTypes,
*,
content: Optional[httpx._types.RequestContent] = None,
data: Optional[httpx._types.RequestData] = None,
files: Optional[httpx._types.RequestFiles] = None,
json: Optional[Any] = None,
params: Optional[httpx._types.QueryParamTypes] = None,
headers: Optional[httpx._types.HeaderTypes] = None,
cookies: Optional[httpx._types.CookieTypes] = None,
timeout: Union[
httpx._types.TimeoutTypes, httpx._client.UseClientDefault
] = httpx.USE_CLIENT_DEFAULT,
extensions: Optional[httpx._types.RequestExtensions] = None,
) -> httpx.Request:
return self.client.build_request(
method,
url,
content=content,
data=data,
files=files,
json=json,
params=params,
headers=headers,
cookies=cookies,
timeout=timeout,
extensions=extensions,
)
s = CodatCommerce(async_client=CustomClient(httpx.AsyncClient()))This SDK supports the following security scheme globally:
| Name | Type | Scheme |
|---|---|---|
auth_header |
apiKey | API key |
To authenticate with the API the auth_header parameter must be set when initializing the SDK client instance. For example:
from codat_commerce import CodatCommerce
s = CodatCommerce(
auth_header="Basic BASE_64_ENCODED(API_KEY)",
)
res = s.customers.get(request={
"company_id": "8a210b68-6988-11ed-a1eb-0242ac120002",
"connection_id": "2e9d2c44-f675-40ba-8049-353bfcb5e171",
"customer_id": "<value>",
})
if res is not None:
# handle response
passYou can setup your SDK to emit debug logs for SDK requests and responses.
You can pass your own logger class directly into your SDK.
from codat_commerce import CodatCommerce
import logging
logging.basicConfig(level=logging.DEBUG)
s = CodatCommerce(debug_logger=logging.getLogger("codat_commerce"))If you encounter any challenges while utilizing our SDKs, please don't hesitate to reach out for assistance.
