Shippo API Python wrapper

Shippo is a shipping API that connects you with multiple shipping carriers (such as USPS, UPS, DHL, Canada Post, Australia Post, UberRUSH and many others) through one interface.

Print a shipping label in 10 mins using our default USPS and DHL Express accounts. No need to register for a carrier account to get started.

You will first need to register for a Shippo account to use our API. It's free to sign up, free to use the API. Only pay to print a live label, test labels are free.

Configuration

Configurable variables previously available in the main module (ex: shippo.api_key) have been moved to the shippo.config module.

import shippo

shippo.config.api_key = "<API-KEY>"
shippo.config.api_version = "2018-02-08"
shippo.config.verify_ssl_certs = True
shippo.config.rates_req_timeout = 30.0

How do I get set up?

To install from the source file:

#!shell
python setup.py install

or pip (https://pip.pypa.io/en/latest/index.html):

#!shell
sudo pip install shippo

To test:

Set your SHIPPO_API_KEY as an environment variable. e.g. on OSX:

export SHIPPO_API_KEY="<MY-API-KEY>"

Run the test with the following command:

#!shell
python setup.py test --test-suite=shippo

Using the API:

import shippo
shippo.config.api_key = "<API-KEY>"

address1 = shippo.Address.create(
    name='John Smith',
    street1='6512 Greene Rd.',
    street2='',
    company='Initech',
    phone='+1 234 346 7333',
    city='Woodridge',

    zip='60517',
    country='US',
    metadata='Customer ID 123456'
)

print 'Success with Address 1 : %r' % (address1, )
