A note from the author: I no longer do Wordpress work, so I won't have the time to adequately maintain this repo. If you would like to maintain a fork of this repo, and want me to link to your fork here, please let me know.

One such fork is https://github.com/Synoptik-Labs/wp-api-python

thanks!

Wordpress API - Python Client

https://travis-ci.org/derwentx/wp-api-python.svg?branch=master Maintainability Test Coverage https://snyk.io/test/github/derwentx/wp-api-python/badge.svg?targetFile=requirements.txt

A Python wrapper for the Wordpress and WooCommerce REST APIs with oAuth1a 3leg support.

Supports the Wordpress REST API v1-2, WooCommerce REST API v1-3 and WooCommerce WP-API v1-2 (with automatic OAuth3a handling). Forked from the excellent WooCommerce API written by Claudio Sanches and modified to work with Wordpress: https://github.com/woocommerce/wc-api-python

I created this fork because I prefer the way that the wc-api-python client interfaces with the Wordpress API compared to the existing python client, https://pypi.python.org/pypi/wordpress_json which does not support OAuth authentication, only Basic Authentication (very unsecure)

Any comments about how you're using the API and suggestions about how this repository could be improved are welcome :). You can find my contact info in my GitHub profile.

Roadmap

  • [x] Create initial fork
  • [x] Implement 3-legged OAuth on Wordpress client
  • [x] Better local storage of OAuth credentials to stop unnecessary API keys being generated
  • [x] Support image upload to WC Api
  • [ ] Better handling of timeouts with a back-off
  • [ ] Implement iterator for convenient access to API items

Requirements

Wordpress version 4.7+ comes pre-installed with REST API v2, so you don't need to have the WP REST API plugin if you have the latest Wordpress.

You should have the following plugins installed on your wordpress site:

  • WP REST API (only required for WP < v4.7, recommended version: 2.0+)
  • WP REST API - OAuth 1.0a Server (optional, if you want oauth within the wordpress API. https://github.com/WP-API/OAuth1)
  • WP REST API - Meta Endpoints (optional)
  • WP API Basic Auth https://github.com/WP-API/Basic-Auth (for image uploading)
  • WooCommerce (optional, if you want to use the WooCommerce API)

The following python packages are also used by the package

  • requests
  • beautifulsoup

Installation

Install with pip

pip install wordpress-api

Download this repo and use setuptools to install the package

pip install setuptools
git clone https://github.com/derwentx/wp-api-python
python setup.py install

Testing

Some of the tests make API calls to a dockerized woocommerce container. Don't worry! It's really simple to set up. You just need to install docker and run

docker-compose up -d
# this just waits until the docker container is set up and exits
docker exec -it wpapipython_woocommerce_1 bash -c 'until [ -f .done ]; do sleep 1; done; echo "complete"'

Then you can test with:

pip install -r requirements-test.txt
python setup.py test

Publishing

Note to self because I keep forgetting how to use Twine >_<

python setup.py sdist bdist_wheel
# Check that you've updated changelog
twine upload dist/wordpress-api-$(python setup.py --version) -r pypitest
twine upload dist/wordpress-api-$(python setup.py --version) -r pypi

Getting started

Generate API credentials (Consumer Key & Consumer Secret) following these instructions: http://v2.wp-api.org/guide/authentication/

Simply go to Users -> Applications and create an Application, e.g. "REST API". Enter a callback URL that you will be able to remember later such as "http://example.com/oauth1_callback" (not really important for this client). Store the resulting Key and Secret somewhere safe.

Check out the Wordpress API endpoints and data that can be manipulated in http://v2.wp-api.org/reference/.

Setup

Wordpress API with Basic authentication:

(Note: requires Basic Authentication plugin)

from wordpress import API

wpapi = API(
    url="http://example.com",
    api="wp-json",
    version='wp/v2',
    wp_user="XXXX",
    wp_pass="XXXX",
    basic_auth = True,
    user_auth = True,
)

WP REST API v2:

(Note: the username and password are required so that it can fill out the oauth request token form automatically for you. Requires OAuth 1.0a plugin. )

#...

wpapi = API(
    url="http://example.com",
    consumer_key="XXXXXXXXXXXX",
    consumer_secret="XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX",
    api="wp-json",
    version="wp/v2",
    wp_user="XXXX",
    wp_pass="XXXX",
    oauth1a_3leg=True,
    creds_store="~/.wc-api-creds.json"
)

Legacy WooCommerce API v3:

#...

wcapi = API(
    url="http://example.com",
    consumer_key="ck_XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX",
    consumer_secret="cs_XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX",
    api="wc-api",
    version="v3"
)

New WC REST API:

Note: oauth1a 3legged works with Wordpress but not with WooCommerce. However oauth1a signing still works. If you try to do oauth1a_3leg with WooCommerce it just says "consumer_key not valid", even if it is valid.

#...

wcapi = API(
    url="http://example.com",
    consumer_key="ck_XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX",
    consumer_secret="cs_XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX",
    api="wp-json",
    version="wc/v2",
    callback='http://127.0.0.1/oauth1_callback'
)

Options

Option Type Required Description
url string yes Your Store URL, example: http://wp.dev/
consumerKey string yes Your API consumer key
consumerSecret string yes Your API consumer secret
api string no Determines which api to use, defaults to wp-json, can be arbitrary: wc-api, oembed
version string no API version, default is wp/v2, can be v3 or wc/v1 if using wc-api
timeout integer no Connection timeout, default is 5
verify_ssl bool no Verify SSL when connect, use this option as False when need to test with self-signed certificates
basic_auth bool no Force Basic Authentication, can be through query string or headers (default)
query_string_auth bool no Use query string for Basic Authentication when True and using HTTPS, default is False which uses header
oauth1a_3leg string no use oauth1a 3-legged authentication
creds_store string no JSON file where oauth verifier is stored (only used with OAuth_3Leg)

Methods

Params Type Description
endpoint string API endpoint, example: posts or user/12
data dictionary Data that will be converted to JSON

GET

  • .get(endpoint)

POST

  • .post(endpoint, data)

PUT

  • .put(endpoint, data)

DELETE

  • .delete(endpoint)

OPTIONS

  • .options(endpoint)

Upload an image

(Note: this only works on WP API with the Basic Auth plugin enabled: https://github.com/WP-API/Basic-Auth )

assert os.path.exists(img_path), "img should exist"
data = open(img_path, 'rb').read()
filename = os.path.basename(img_path)
_, extension = os.path.splitext(filename)
headers = {
    'cache-control': 'no-cache',
    'content-disposition': 'attachment; filename=%s' % filename,
    'content-type': 'image/%s' % extension
}
endpoint = "/media"
return wpapi.post(endpoint, data, headers=headers)

Response

All methods will return Response object.

Example of returned data:

>>> from wordpress import api as wpapi
>>> r = wpapi.get("posts")
>>> r.status_code
200
>>> r.headers['content-type']
'application/json; charset=UTF-8'
>>> r.encoding
'UTF-8'
>>> r.text
u'{"posts":[{"title":"Flying Ninja","id":70,...' // Json text
>>> r.json()
{u'posts': [{u'sold_individually': False,... // Dictionary data

A note on DELETE requests.

The extra keyword arguments passed to the function of a __request call (such as .delete()) to a wordpress.API object are used to modify a Requests.request call, this is to allow you to specify custom parameters to modify how the request is made such as headers. At the moment it only passes the headers parameter to requests, but if I see a use case for it, I can forward more of the parameters to Requests. The delete function doesn’t accept a data object because a HTTP DELETE request does not typically have a payload, and some implementations of a HTTP server would reject a DELETE request that has a payload. You can still pass api request parameters in the query string of the URL. I would suggest using a library like urlparse / urllib.parse to modify the query string if you are automatically deleting users. According the the [documentation](https://developer.wordpress.org/rest-api/reference/users/#delete-a-user) for deleting a user, you need to pass the force and reassign parameters to the API, which can be done by appending them to the endpoint URL. .. code-block:: python

>>> response = wpapi.delete(‘/users/<Id>?reassign=<other_id>&force=true’)
>>> response.json()
{“deleted”:true, ... }

A Note on Encoding

In Python2, make sure to only POST unicode string objects or strings that have been correctly encoded as utf-8. Serializing objects containing non-utf8 byte strings in Python2 is broken by importing unicode_literals from __future__ because of a bug in json.dumps. You may be able to get around this problem by serializing the data yourself.
