Project description

1. Airtable

Installation

pip install airtable-python-wrapper

Airtable Class Instance

Authentication is handled by the Airtable class. The class can handle authentication automatically if the environment variable AIRTABLE_API_KEY is set with your api key.

>>> airtable = Airtable('base_key', 'table_name')
>>> airtable.get_all()
[{id:'rec123asa23', fields': {'Column': 'Value'}, ...}]

Alternatively, you can pass the key explicitly:

>>> airtable = Airtable(base_key, table_name, api_key='yourapikey')

You can also use this class to handle authentication for you if you are making your own wrapper:

>>> auth = AirtableAuth(api_key)
>>> response = requests.get('https://api.airtable.com/v0/{basekey}/{table_name}', auth=auth)

3. PDFKIT

It's wkhtmltopdf python wrapper to convert html to pdf using the webkit rendering engine and qt.

Install python-pdfkit

$ pip install pdfkit

Install wkhtmltopdf:

pip install wkhtmltopdf

Usage

For simple tasks:

import pdfkit

pdfkit.from_url('http://google.com', 'out.pdf')
pdfkit.from_file('test.html', 'out.pdf')
pdfkit.from_string('Hello!', 'out.pdf')

You can pass a list with multiple URLs or files:

pdfkit.from_url(['google.com', 'yandex.ru', 'engadget.com'], 'out.pdf')
pdfkit.from_file(['file1.html', 'file2.html'], 'out.pdf')

If you wish to further process generated PDF, you can read it to a variable:

# Use False instead of output path to save pdf to a variable
pdf = pdfkit.from_url('http://google.com', False)

You can specify all wkhtmltopdf options.

options = {
    'page-size': 'Letter',
    'margin-top': '0.75in',
    'margin-right': '0.75in',
    'margin-bottom': '0.75in',
    'margin-left': '0.75in',
    'encoding': "UTF-8",
    'custom-header' : [
        ('Accept-Encoding', 'gzip')
    ]
    'cookie': [
        ('cookie-name1', 'cookie-value1'),
        ('cookie-name2', 'cookie-value2'),
    ],
    'no-outline': None
}

pdfkit.from_url('http://google.com', 'out.pdf', options=options)

Configuration

Each API call takes an optional configuration paramater. This should be an instance of pdfkit.configuration() API call. It takes the configuration options as initial paramaters. The available options are:

wkhtmltopdf - the location of the wkhtmltopdf binary. By default pdfkit will attempt to locate this using which (on UNIX type systems) or where (on Windows). meta_tag_prefix - the prefix for pdfkit specific meta tags - by default this is pdfkit- Example - for when wkhtmltopdf is not on $PATH:

config = pdfkit.configuration(wkhtmltopdf='/opt/bin/wkhtmltopdf')
pdfkit.from_string(html_string, output_file, configuration=config)
