Toggl Wrapper

Python library to easily interface with Toggl's API.

Implements all of Toggl's main API. The Reports API is not yet supported (coming soon).

Works in Python 2.7+ and Python 3+, and uses requests.

Toggl

Toggl is free time tracking software.

Features

  • Handles authentication for you: only need to provide your API token once
  • The most complete Python wrapper: implements all of v8 API.
  • Convenient install from PyPI
  • Easy to make requests to custom URLs
  • Python2 and Python3 compatible

Install

$ pip install togglwrapper

Quickstart

>>> from togglwrapper import Toggl
>>> toggl = Toggl('your_api_token')
>>> toggl.User.get()
{u'data': {
    u'achievements_enabled': True,
    u'api_token': u'your_api_token',
    u'email': u'[email protected]',
    u'fullname': u'Your Name',
    ...
    }
}
>>> toggl.Clients.get()
[{
    u'at': u'2015-07-02T14:27:59+00:00',
    u'id': 12031893,
    u'name': u'Client Name',
    u'wid': 3928
}]
>>> toggl.Workspaces.get()
[{
    u'admin': True,
    u'api_token': u'your_api_token',
    u'id': 1234,
    u'name': u"Your workspace",
    ...
}]
>>> toggl.Clients.create({"client":{"name":"Very Big Company", "wid": 1234}})
{u'data': {u'id': 294021, u'name': u'Very Big Company', u'wid': 1234}}

Custom Request

Let's pretend that a new endpoint is released, for a new Toggl object: Addresses. This hypothetical endpoint is located at https://www.toggl.com/api/v8/addresses. We can GET all addresses, GET a specific address by ID, or POST to create a new address.

We can use the methods on the Toggl client, so we don't have to wait for a new version of togglwrapper that supports the new endpoint:

>>> from togglwrapper import Toggl
>>> toggl = Toggl('your_api_token')
>>> toggl.get('/addresses')
...
>>> toggl.get('/addresses/{address_id}')
...
>>> toggl.post('/addresses', data={"address": {"name": "Billing Address 1", "address": "123 Main St."}})
...

toggl.put and toggl.delete are also available.

Running tests locally

Using virtualenv + virtualenvwrapper to keep the environment isolated:

  1. Create a testing virtualenv
  2. Install the test requirements
  3. python tests.py

Sample command line output:

$ mkvirtualenv twtests  # if creating the virtualenv for the first time
Running virtualenv [...]
(twtest) $ pip install -r test_requirements.txt
Collecting [...]
(twtest) $ python tests.py
.......................................................

OK
(twtest) $ deactivate
