This project intends to create a simple python wrapper around eBay APIs.
The entry at the Python Package Index is at: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/python-ebay
Development is coordinated at Github: https://github.com/roopeshvaddepally/python-ebay
Install the library with pip or easy_install. With pip you must use option
--pre
, because python-ebay is currently labeled as prerelease (beta) quality.pip install --pre python-ebay
- Create a configuration file.
- Generate keys at eBay's developer website: http://developer.ebay.com/quickstartguide/
- Create an example configuration file.
- Rename the example to something sensible.
- Edit the example, especially insert the keys that you generated at eBay's developer site.
python -c "import ebay.utils; ebay.utils.write_config_example()" mv config.ini.example ebay.apikey vim ebay.apikey
Before using python-ebay, you must tell it where the configuration file is:
from ebay.utils import set_config_file from ebay.shopping import FindProducts set_config_file("ebay.apikey") print FindProducts("pen", "false", "10", "JSON")
Download a source package of python-ebay and unpack it. https://github.com/roopeshvaddepally/python-ebay/tarball/master
- Create a configuration file.
- Generate keys at eBay's developer website: http://developer.ebay.com/quickstartguide/
- Edit
ebay/config.ini
, especially insert the keys that you generated at eBay's developer site.
Install the (slightly modified) package with:
python setup.py install
The python-ebay library now contains a working configuration file. You can use it without calling
utils.set_config_file
:from ebay.shopping import FindProducts print FindProducts("pen", "false", "10", "JSON")
The pyton-ebay library is unfortunately not complete. An overview of the development status is available on our wiki. The currently implemented functions are listed together with a short description: https://github.com/roopeshvaddepally/python-ebay/wiki/List-of-eBay-APIs
Extensive documentation of eBay's API is available on eBay's developer website. This documentation focuses on XML messages that are sent to eBay's servers, and XML responses that are received from those servers. http://developer.ebay.com/products/overview
