Agile CRM Python library
========================

Python library for `Agile CRM`_ based on the `rest-api documentation`_.

Status
------

We use this in production for `Screenly`_, and it works fine. Still a
bit rough around the corners, but it does indeed work.

Installation
------------

Clone the repo as a sub-module inside your project.

Install the Python requirements.

::

    $ pip install agilecrm

Configuration
-------------

In order to use the module, you need to set the following environment
variables:

-  AGILECRM\_APIKEY
-  AGILECRM\_EMAIL
-  AGILECRM\_DOMAIN

Usage
-----

First, you need to import the module. This may vary depending on your
paths etc, but something like:

::

    import agilecrm

Creating a user
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Simply create a new user. Despite what is claimed in the documentation,
all variables appear to be optional.

::

    agilecrm.create_contact(
        first_name='John',
        last_name='Doe',
        email='john@doe.com',
        tags=['signed_up'],
        company='Foobar Inc')

You can also use custom fields (must be created in Agile CRM first):

::

    agilecrm.create_contact(
        first_name='John',
        custom = {
          'SomeField': 'Foobar'
        }

Update a contact
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Update a user object.

::

    agilecrm.update_contact(
        first_name='Steve',
        last_name='Smith',
        email='john@doe.com',
        tags=['name_updated'],
        company='Foobar2 Inc')

Get a user (by email)
---------------------

This will get the user by email and return the user object as JSON.

::

    agilecrm.get_contact_by_email('john@doe.com')

Get a user (by UUID)
--------------------

This will get the user by UUID and return the user object as JSON.

::

    agilecrm.get_contact_by_uuid(1234)

Add a tag
---------

This will add the tag ‘awesome\_user’ to the user ‘john@doe.com’. Both
variables are required.

::

    agilecrm.add_tag('john@doe.com', 'awesome_user')
