# python-myusps

Python 3 API for [USPS Informed Delivery](https://my.usps.com/mobileWeb/pages/intro/start.action), a way to track packages and mail.

## Prerequisites

### USPS

Sign up for Informed Delivery and verify your address.

### Chrome

Install Google Chrome and Chromedriver. These are dependencies for the Selenium webdriver, which is used internally to this module to facilitate the login process.

Instructions (adapt as necessary for your OS):

  - Ubuntu 16: https://gist.github.com/ziadoz/3e8ab7e944d02fe872c3454d17af31a5

  - RHEL 7: https://stackoverflow.com/a/46686621

Note that installing Selenium Server is not required.

## Install

`pip install myusps`

## Usage

```python

import myusps

# Establish a session.

# Use the login credentials you use to login to My USPS via the web.

# A login failure raises a `USPSError`.

session = myusps.get_session("username", "password")

# Get your profile information as a dict. Includes name, address, phone, etc.

profile = myusps.get_profile(session)

# Get all packages that My UPS knows about.

packages = myusps.get_packages(session)

# Get mail delivered on a given day.

import datetime

mail = myusps.get_mail(session, datetime.datetime.now().date())

```

## Caching

Session cookies are cached by default in `./usps_cookies.pickle` and will be used if available instead of logging in. If the cookies expire, a new session will be established automatically.

HTTP requests are cached by default in `./usps_cache.sqlite`. HTTP caching defaults to 5 minutes and can be turned off by passing `cache=False` to `get_session`. The cache expiry can be adjusted with the keyword argument `cache_expiry`.

## Development

### Lint

`tox`

### Release

`make release`

### Contributions

Contributions are welcome. Please submit a PR that passes `tox`.
