Bird's REST API for Python
=================================
This repository contains the open source Python client for New MessageBird's REST API. Documentation can be found at: https://docs.bird.com/api/.

Requirements
------------
- [Sign up](https://www.messagebird.com/en/signup) for a free MessageBird account
- Create a new access key in the developers sections
- An application written in Python (tested with Python 2.7 and Python 3.4)

Installation
------------
The easiest way to install the bird_python package is either via pip:

```
$ pip install bird_python
```

Examples
--------
We have put some self-explanatory examples in the [examples](https://github.com/messagebird/python-rest-api/tree/master/examples) directory, but here is a quick example on how to get started. Assuming the installation was successful, you can import the messagebird package like this:

```python
import bird_python as messagebird
```

Then, create an instance of **messagebird.Client**:

```python
client = messagebird.Client('YOUR_ACCESS_KEY', 'YOUR_ORGANIZATION_ID')
```

Now you can query the API for information or send a request. For example, if we want to send a message through any channel like whatsapp, you'd do something like this:

```python
try:
# Get and set any workspace for sent request to the channels related.
client.workspaces = client.workspace_list()['results'][0]['id']
# Get and set any channel id for sender request, for example: Whatsapp, Messenger, SMS
channels_id = client.channel_list()['results'][0]['id']

# Build the body message like this format
body = {
"receiver": {
"contacts": [
{
"identifierValue": "+15598585"
}
]
},
"body": {
"type": "text",
"text": {
"text": "Single text message"
}
}
}

response = client.send_message(channels_id=channels_id, body=body)

# Print the object information.
print('response:\n')
print(response)

except messagebird.client.ErrorException as e:
print('Error:\n')

for error in e.errors:
print(' code : %d' % error.code)
print(' description : %s' % error.description)
print(' parameter : %s\n' % error.parameter)

```

1. **Get Contact**
```python
contact = client.contact(uuid='YOUR_CONTACT_ID')
# Retrieve the information of a specific contact.

body = {
"displayName": "Jhon Doe",
"identifiers": [
{
"key": "phone",
"value": "+15551234"
}
]
}
contact = client.contact_create(body=body)
# Allows create a contact.
```

3. **Get Contact List**
```python
contact = client.contact_list()
# Extract all contacts created in a workspace.
```

4. **Get Workspace List**
```python
contact = client.workspace_list()
# Gets a list of workspaces created in an organization's account.
```

5. **Get Workspace By ID**
```python
contact = client.workspace_list_by_id(uuid='YOUR_WORKSPACE_ID')
# Gets a list of workspaces created in an organization's account.
```

6. **Get Project List**
```python
contact = client.project_list()
# Gets a list of projects created in an workspace.
# In this API you get what were previously known as templates,
# only now they can be compatible with multiple channels.
```

7. **Get Project By ID**
```python
contact = client.project_list_by_id(uuid='YOUR_PROJECT_ID')
# Gets one project created in an workspace by id.
```

8. **Get Channel List**
```python
contact = client.channel_list()
# Gets a list of channels created in an workspace.
```

9. **Get Channel By ID**
```python
contact = client.channel_list_by_id(uuid='YOUR_CHANNEL_ID')
# Gets one channel created in an workspace by id.
```

10. **Get Connector List**
```python
contact = client.connector_list()
# Gets a list of connectors created in an workspace.
# A connector can be Whatsapp, Messenger, SMS
```

11. **Get Connector By ID**
```python
contact = client.connector_list_by_id(uuid='YOUR_CONNECTOR_ID')
# Gets one connector created in an workspace by id.
```

12. **Send Message**
```python
body = {
"receiver": {
"contacts": [
{
"identifierValue": "+15551234"
}
]
},
"body": {
"type": "text",
"text": {
"text": "Single text message"
}
}
}
contact = client.send_message(channels_id='YOUR_CHANNEL_ID', body=body)
# Allows you to send a message through a channel.
# :param channels_id: ID of the channel through which you want to send the message
# :param body: Body of the message in json, which contains all the information necessary to send the message
```

13. **Get Webhook Event List**
```python
contact = client.webhook_event_list()
# Gets a list of webhooks available in an workspace.
```

14. **Create Webhook**
```python
contact = client.webhook_create(body='body')
