This is a wrapper for the Venmo API. This library provides a Python interface for the Venmo API. It's compatible with Python versions 3.6+.
You can install or upgrade venmo-api with:
$ pip3 install venmo-api --upgrade
Or you can install it from the source:
$ git clone https://github.com/mmohades/Venmo.git --recursive
$ cd Venmo
$ python3 setup.py install
In short, you can send money, request for money, get a user's public transactions, get a user's public profile info, etc. The following is an example of initializing and working with it.
from venmo_api import Client
# Get your access token. You will need to complete the 2FA process
access_token = Client.get_access_token(username='myemail@random.com',
password='your password')
venmo = Client(access_token=access_token)
# Search for users. You get 50 results per page.
users = venmo.user.search_for_users(query="Peter",
page=2)
for user in users:
print(user.username)
# Or, you can pass a callback to make it multi-threaded
def callback(users):
for user in users:
print(user.username)
venmo.user.search_for_users(query="peter",
callback=callback,
page=2,
count=10)
Keep this in mind that your access token never expires! You will need to revoke it by yoursef.
venmo.log_out("Bearer a40fsdfhsfhdsfjhdkgljsdglkdsfj3j3i4349t34j7d")
# Request money
venmo.payment.request_money(32.5, "house expenses", "1122334455667")
# Send money
venmo.payment.send_money(13.68, "thanks for the 🍔", "1122334455667")
Getting a user's transactions (public, friends and privates that happen between your account and user_id account)
def callback(transactions_list):
for transaction in transactions_list:
print(transaction)
# callback is optional. Max number of transactions per request is 50.
venmo_api.user.get_user_transactions(user_id='0000000000000',
callback=callback)
