This is the Python client library for Google's discovery based APIs. To get started, please see the full documentation for this library. Additionally, dynamically generated documentation is available for all of the APIs supported by this library.

To install, simply use pip or easy_install:

$ pip install --upgrade google-api-python-client

or

$ easy_install --upgrade google-api-python-client

See the Developers Guide for more detailed instructions and additional documentation.

Python 2.6 or 2.7 are fully supported.

Python 3.3+ is also now supported! However, this library has not yet been used as thoroughly with Python 3, so we'd recommend testing before deploying with Python 3 in production.

The following libraries will be installed when you install the client library:

• httplib2
• uri-templates

For development you will also need the following libraries:

• WebTest
• pycrypto
• pyopenssl
