Heron Python
This library provides easy access to the Heron Data API from applications written in Python.
Documentation
No language-specific docs are currently maintained. For documentation on the raw REST API this library uses behind the scenes, see our OpenAPI Docs.
Installation
If you just want to use the package, just run:
pip install --upgrade heron-data
Install from source with:
python setup.py install
Requirements
- Python 3.8+
Usage
Import the heron package and set your config:
import os
import heron
heron.basic_auth_username = os.getenv("HERON_USERNAME")
heron.basic_auth_password = os.getenv("HERON_PASSWORD")
# Experimental: if you pull from a fintech API, specify it here to get
# automatic conversion into a Heron Data API format. Supported: plaid,
# finicity, yodlee, truelayer
heron.provider = "plaid"
Alternatively, set HERON_USERNAME and HERON_PASSWORD as environment variables which will be automatically picked up.
Then you can issue API requests using Python classes:
end_user = heron.EndUser.create(...)
transactions = heron.Transaction.create_many([...])
You can see a longer example in the examples/ directory.
