SDK Installation

Note

Python version upgrade policy

Once a Python version reaches its official end of life date, a 3-month grace period is provided for users to upgrade. Following this grace period, the minimum python version supported in the SDK will be updated.

The SDK can be installed with either pip or poetry package managers.

PIP

PIP is the default package installer for Python, enabling easy installation and management of packages from PyPI via the command line.

pip install polar-sdk

Poetry

Poetry is a modern tool that simplifies dependency management and package publishing by using a single pyproject.toml file to handle project metadata and dependencies.

poetry add polar-sdk

Shell and script usage with uv

You can use this SDK in a Python shell with uv and the uvx command that comes with it like so:

uvx --from polar-sdk python

It's also possible to write a standalone Python script without needing to set up a whole project like so:

#!/usr/bin/env -S uv run --script
# /// script
# requires-python = ">=3.9"
# dependencies = [
#     "polar-sdk",
# ]
# ///

from polar_sdk import Polar

sdk = Polar(
  # SDK arguments
)

# Rest of script here...

Once that is saved to a file, you can run it with uv run script.py where script.py can be replaced with the actual file name.

IDE Support

PyCharm

Generally, the SDK will work well with most IDEs out of the box. However, when using PyCharm, you can enjoy much better integration with Pydantic by installing an additional plugin.

SDK Example Usage

Webhook support

The SDK has built-in support to validate webhook events. Here is an example with Flask:

from flask import Flask, request
from polar_sdk.webhooks import validate_event, WebhookVerificationError

app = Flask(__name__)

@app.route('/webhook', methods=['POST'])
def webhook():
    try:
        event = validate_event(
            payload=request.data,
            headers=request.headers,
            secret='<YOUR_WEBHOOK_SECRET>',
        )

        # Process the event

        return "", 202
    except WebhookVerificationError as e:
        return "", 403

Retries

Some of the endpoints in this SDK support retries. If you use the SDK without any configuration, it will fall back to the default retry strategy provided by the API. However, the default retry strategy can be overridden on a per-operation basis, or across the entire SDK.

To change the default retry strategy for a single API call, simply provide a RetryConfig object to the call:

from polar_sdk import Polar
from polar_sdk.utils import BackoffStrategy, RetryConfig


with Polar(
    access_token="<YOUR_BEARER_TOKEN_HERE>",
) as polar:

    res = polar.organizations.list(page=1, limit=10,
        RetryConfig("backoff", BackoffStrategy(1, 50, 1.1, 100), False))

    while res is not None:
        # Handle items

        res = res.next()

If you'd like to override the default retry strategy for all operations that support retries, you can use the retry_config optional parameter when initializing the SDK:

from polar_sdk import Polar
from polar_sdk.utils import BackoffStrategy, RetryConfig


with Polar(
    retry_config=RetryConfig("backoff", BackoffStrategy(1, 50, 1.1, 100), False),
    access_token="<YOUR_BEARER_TOKEN_HERE>",
) as polar:

    res = polar.organizations.list(page=1, limit=10)

    while res is not None:
        # Handle items

        res = res.next()

Error Handling

PolarError is the base class for all HTTP error responses. It has the following properties:

Property Type Description
err.message str Error message
err.status_code int HTTP response status code eg 404
err.headers httpx.Headers HTTP response headers
err.body str HTTP body. Can be empty string if no body is returned.
err.raw_response httpx.Response Raw HTTP response
err.data Optional. Some errors may contain structured data. See Error Classes.

Example

import polar_sdk
from polar_sdk import Polar, models


with Polar(
    access_token="<YOUR_BEARER_TOKEN_HERE>",
) as polar:
    res = None
    try:

        res = polar.organizations.list(page=1, limit=10)

        while res is not None:
            # Handle items

            res = res.next()


    except models.PolarError as e:
        # The base class for HTTP error responses
        print(e.message)
        print(e.status_code)
        print(e.body)
        print(e.headers)
        print(e.raw_response)

        # Depending on the method different errors may be thrown
        if isinstance(e, models.HTTPValidationError):
            print(e.data.detail)  # Optional[List[polar_sdk.ValidationError]]

Server Selection

Select Server by Name

You can override the default server globally by passing a server name to the server: str optional parameter when initializing the SDK client instance. The selected server will then be used as the default on the operations that use it. This table lists the names associated with the available servers:

Name Server Description
production https://api.polar.sh Production environment
sandbox https://sandbox-api.polar.sh Sandbox environment

Example

from polar_sdk import Polar


with Polar(
    server="sandbox",
    access_token="<YOUR_BEARER_TOKEN_HERE>",
) as polar:

    res = polar.organizations.list(page=1, limit=10)

    while res is not None:
        # Handle items

        res = res.next()

Override Server URL Per-Client

The default server can also be overridden globally by passing a URL to the server_url: str optional parameter when initializing the SDK client instance. For example:

from polar_sdk import Polar


with Polar(
    server_url="https://api.polar.sh",
    access_token="<YOUR_BEARER_TOKEN_HERE>",
) as polar:

    res = polar.organizations.list(page=1, limit=10)

    while res is not None:
        # Handle items

        res = res.next()

Custom HTTP Client

The Python SDK makes API calls using the httpx HTTP library. In order to provide a convenient way to configure timeouts, cookies, proxies, custom headers, and other low-level configuration, you can initialize the SDK client with your own HTTP client instance. Depending on whether you are using the sync or async version of the SDK, you can pass an instance of HttpClient or AsyncHttpClient respectively, which are Protocol's ensuring that the client has the necessary methods to make API calls. This allows you to wrap the client with your own custom logic, such as adding custom headers, logging, or error handling, or you can just pass an instance of httpx.Client or httpx.AsyncClient directly.

For example, you could specify a header for every request that this sdk makes as follows:

from polar_sdk import Polar
import httpx

http_client = httpx.Client(headers={"x-custom-header": "someValue"})
s = Polar(client=http_client)

or you could wrap the client with your own custom logic:

from polar_sdk import Polar
from polar_sdk.httpclient import AsyncHttpClient
import httpx

class CustomClient(AsyncHttpClient):
    client: AsyncHttpClient

    def __init__(self, client: AsyncHttpClient):
        self.client = client

    async def send(
        self,
        request: httpx.Request,
        *,
        stream: bool = False,
        auth: Union[
            httpx._types.AuthTypes, httpx._client.UseClientDefault, None
        ] = httpx.USE_CLIENT_DEFAULT,
        follow_redirects: Union[
            bool, httpx._client.UseClientDefault
        ] = httpx.USE_CLIENT_DEFAULT,
    ) -> httpx.Response:
        request.headers["Client-Level-Header"] = "added by client"

        return await self.client.send(
            request, stream=stream, auth=auth, follow_redirects=follow_redirects
        )

    def build_request(
        self,
        method: str,
        url: httpx._types.URLTypes,
        *,
        content: Optional[httpx._types.RequestContent] = None,
        data: Optional[httpx._types.RequestData] = None,
        files: Optional[httpx._types.RequestFiles] = None,
        json: Optional[Any] = None,
        params: Optional[httpx._types.QueryParamTypes] = None,
        headers: Optional[httpx._types.HeaderTypes] = None,
        cookies: Optional[httpx._types.CookieTypes] = None,
        timeout: Union[
            httpx._types.TimeoutTypes, httpx._client.UseClientDefault
        ] = httpx.USE_CLIENT_DEFAULT,
        extensions: Optional[httpx._types.RequestExtensions] = None,
    ) -> httpx.Request:
        return self.client.build_request(
            method,
            url,
            content=content,
            data=data,
            files=files,
            json=json,
            params=params,
            headers=headers,
            cookies=cookies,
            timeout=timeout,
            extensions=extensions,
        )

s = Polar(async_client=CustomClient(httpx.AsyncClient()))

Authentication

Per-Client Security Schemes

This SDK supports the following security scheme globally:

Name Type Scheme
access_token http HTTP Bearer

To authenticate with the API the access_token parameter must be set when initializing the SDK client instance. For example:

from polar_sdk import Polar


with Polar(
    access_token="<YOUR_BEARER_TOKEN_HERE>",
) as polar:

    res = polar.organizations.list(page=1, limit=10)

    while res is not None:
        # Handle items

        res = res.next()

Per-Operation Security Schemes

Some operations in this SDK require the security scheme to be specified at the request level. For example:

import polar_sdk
from polar_sdk import Polar


with Polar() as polar:

    res = polar.customer_portal.benefit_grants.list(security=polar_sdk.CustomerPortalBenefitGrantsListSecurity(
        customer_session="<YOUR_BEARER_TOKEN_HERE>",
    ), organization_id=None, page=1, limit=10)

    while res is not None:
        # Handle items

        res = res.next()

Resource Management

The Polar class implements the context manager protocol and registers a finalizer function to close the underlying sync and async HTTPX clients it uses under the hood. This will close HTTP connections, release memory and free up other resources held by the SDK. In short-lived Python programs and notebooks that make a few SDK method calls, resource management may not be a concern. However, in longer-lived programs, it is beneficial to create a single SDK instance via a context manager and reuse it across the application.

from polar_sdk import Polar
def main():

    with Polar(
        access_token="<YOUR_BEARER_TOKEN_HERE>",
    ) as polar:
        # Rest of application here...


# Or when using async:
async def amain():

    async with Polar(
        access_token="<YOUR_BEARER_TOKEN_HERE>",
    ) as polar:
        # Rest of application here...

Debugging

You can setup your SDK to emit debug logs for SDK requests and responses.

You can pass your own logger class directly into your SDK.

from polar_sdk import Polar
import logging

logging.basicConfig(level=logging.DEBUG)
s = Polar(debug_logger=logging.getLogger("polar_sdk"))

Pagination

Some of the endpoints in this SDK support pagination. To use pagination, you make your SDK calls as usual, but the returned response object will have a Next method that can be called to pull down the next group of results. If the return value of Next is None, then there are no more pages to be fetched.

Here's an example of one such pagination call:

from polar_sdk import Polar


with Polar(
    access_token="<YOUR_BEARER_TOKEN_HERE>",
) as polar:

    res = polar.organizations.list(page=1, limit=10)

    while res is not None:
        # Handle items

        res = res.next()

Development

Maturity

This SDK is in beta, and there may be breaking changes between versions without a major version update. Therefore, we recommend pinning usage to a specific package version. This way, you can install the same version each time without breaking changes unless you are intentionally looking for the latest version.

Contributions

While we value open-source contributions to this SDK, this library is generated programmatically. Any manual changes added to internal files will be overwritten on the next generation. We look forward to hearing your feedback. Feel free to open a PR or an issue with a proof of concept and we'll do our best to include it in a future release.
