Gazu, Python client for the Kitsu API

The Kitsu Python client allows you to fetch data easily from the Kitsu collaboration platform. With Gazu, you bring assets and shots data into your pipeline tools. It comes with extra features such as preview publishing and event stream listening.

It is made to be used with the Kitsu API <https://zou.cg-wire.com>__. It requires an up-and-running instance of Kitsu to run correctly.

Quickstart

Install Gazu in your application environment via pip:

.. code:: bash

pip install gazu

The client requires a few extra configurations before being used. It needs to know where is located the API server and to log in:

.. code:: python

import gazu

gazu.set_host("https://zou-server-url/api")
gazu.log_in("user@yourdomain.com", "password")

Let's finish with an example. Fetch all the open projects:

projects = gazu.project.all_open_projects()

Documentation

Documentation and specification are available on a dedicated website:

All contributions are welcome as long as they respect the C4 contract <https://rfc.zeromq.org/spec:42/C4>__.

The code must follow the pep8 convention.

You can use the pre-commit hook for Black (a Python code formatter) before committing :
