PostgREST
postgrest-py is a Python client library that provides an ORM-like interface for interacting with PostgREST APIs.
Description
postgrest-py is a Python client library that provides an ORM-like interface for interacting with PostgREST. It simplifies the process of making requests to a PostgREST API by abstracting away many of the underlying HTTP details. The library offers features such as request builders, filters, and helper functions to handle responses and exceptions. It supports common query operations and provides tools for logging requests. Currently, this library is under active development and is considered unstable.
Features
postgrest-py offers a user-friendly Pythonic interface for accessing PostgREST APIs. Key features include request builders for constructing queries, convenient filters for data refinement, structured response handling, a robust set of exceptions for error management, and support for logging requests for debugging. The library aims to mirror the functionality of an Object-Relational Mapper (ORM) while directly utilizing the capabilities of PostgREST. It supports Python 3.7 and later versions. The library is currently under active development and is considered unstable.
Benefits
postgrest-py simplifies interaction with PostgREST APIs, reducing development time and effort. It improves code readability and maintainability through its structured approach. The ORM-like interface abstracts HTTP requests, enabling developers to focus on data manipulation rather than low-level networking concerns. Error handling is enhanced via the built-in exception handling mechanism. Comprehensive documentation and examples are available to aid users in adopting and using the library effectively. The library facilitates easy integration of PostgREST into Python applications.
