cd extend-python
pip install -e .

Quick Start

import asyncio
from extend import ExtendClient


async def main():
    # Initialize the client
    client = ExtendClient(
        api_key="your-api-key",
        api_secret="your-api-secret"
    )

    # Get all virtual cards
    response = await client.virtual_cards.get_virtual_cards()
    print("Virtual Cards:", response["virtualCards"])

    # Get all transactions
    response = await client.transactions.get_transactions()
    print("Transactions:", response["report"]["transactions"])


# Run the async function
asyncio.run(main())

Environment Variables

The following environment variables are required for integration tests and examples:

• EXTEND_API_KEY: Your Extend API key
• EXTEND_API_SECRET: Your Extend API secret
• EXTEND_TEST_RECIPIENT: Email address for test card recipient
• EXTEND_TEST_CARDHOLDER: Email address for test cardholder

Development Setup

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/paywithextend/extend-python.git
   cd extend-python

2. Create and activate a virtual environment:

   python -m venv venv
   source venv/bin/activate  # On Windows: venv\Scripts\activate

3. Install development dependencies:

   pip install -e ".[dev]"

4. Run tests:

   # Run all tests
   pytest
   
   # Run only unit tests
   pytest tests/test_client.py
   
   # Run only integration tests
   pytest tests/test_integration.py

Testing

The project includes both unit tests and integration tests:

• Unit tests (tests/test_client.py): Test the client's internal logic and validation
• Integration tests (tests/test_integration.py): Test actual API interactions
• Example notebook (notebooks/api_testing.ipynb): Interactive examples

To run integration tests, make sure you have set up the required environment variables.
