- Python 3.8 or later
Use the following command to install the Corbado Python SDK:
pip install passkeys (Warning: Package is not yet published)
To create a Corbado Python SDK instance you need to provide your Project ID
and API secret
which can be found at the Developer Panel.
config: Config = Config(project_id="{project_id}", api_secret=<
8000
/span>"c{api_secret}")
sdk = CorbadoSDK(config=config)
A list of examples can be found in the integration tests here.
The Corbado Python SDK provides the following services:
auth_tokens
for managing authentication tokens needed for own session management (examples)email_magic_links
for managing email magic links (examples)email_otps
for managing email OTPs (examples)sessions
for managing sessions (example flask app)sms_otps
for managing SMS OTPs (examples)users
for managing users (examples)validations
for validating email addresses and phone numbers (examples)
To use a specific service, such as users
, invoke it as shown below:
user_service: UserInterface = sdk.users
The Corbado Python SDK throws exceptions for all errors. The following exceptions are thrown:
ValidationError
for failed validations (client side)ServerException
for server errors (server side)StandardException
for everything else (client side)
If the Backend API returns a HTTP status code other than 200, the Corbado Python SDK throws a ServerException
. The ServerException
class provides convenient methods to access all important data:
sdk.users.get(user_id="usr-123456789")
try:
# Try to get non-existing user with ID 'usr-123456789'
sdk.users.get(user_id="usr-123456789")
except ServerException as e:
# Show HTTP status code (404 in this case)
print(f"Status Code: {e.http_status_code}")
# Show request ID (can be used in developer panel to look up the full request
# and response, see https://app.corbado.com/app/logs/requests)
print(f"Request id: {e.request_id}")
# Show full request data
print(f"Request data: {e.request_data}")
# Show runtime of request in seconds (server side)
print(f"Runtime: {e.runtime}")
# Show error type (not_found)
print(f"Error type: {e.error_type}")
# Show full error data
print(f"Full error: {e.error}")
Create a virtual environment and install packages -
python3 -m venv venv_name
source venv_name/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements-dev.txt
(Add venv_name to "exclude" list in .flake8, otherwise flake8 will lint the generated venv)
Add environment variables for tests (use the test project from secrets repositoty) -
export CORBADO_API_SECRET=corbado1_123456
export CORBADO_PROJECT_ID=pro-123456
export CORBADO_BACKEND_API=https://backendapi.corbado.io
Run all tests using -
tox run -e py38
The tox tests are configured to run on Python 3.8, 3.9, 3.10, 3.11, 3.12 (you need to remove "-e py38" tox argument)
Run linting and mypy:
mypy -p corbado_python_sdk --exclude generated --strict --disable-error-code attr-defined
flake8 .
Use Version file as single source of truth for version control.
Use VSCode with provided project/extentions configuration .vscode/settings.json
Use the recommended extentions from .vscode/extentions.json and explore their functionality to achieve expected code quality by integration tests:
