Overview
********

`Action Network <https://actionnetwork.org/>`_ is an online tool for storing information
and organizing volunteers and donors. It is used primarily for digital organizing and event mangement. For more information, see `Action Network developer docs <https://actionnetwork.org/docs>`_

.. note::
  Authentication
  	Only ActionNetwork accounts of the partner tier are able to access their API. You can generate your key from the API & Sync page, located in the *Start Organizing* menu, under *Details*.

***********
Quick Start
***********

To instantiate a class, you can either pass in the API token as an argument or set the ``AN_API_TOKEN`` environmental variable.

.. code-block:: python

   from parsons import ActionNetwork

   # First approach: Use API credentials via environmental variables
   an = ActionNetwork()

   # Second approach: Pass API credentials as arguments
   an = ActionNetwork(api_token='MY_API_TOKEN')

You can then call various endpoints:

.. code-block:: python

	# List all people stored in Action Network
	all_contacts = an.get_people()

	# Add a person
	an.add_person('person.email@fakeemail.com')

	# Add a tag
	an.add_tag('fake_tag')

	# Update a person
	an.update_person('fake_id', given_name='new_given_name', tags=['tag_1', 'tag_2'])

	# Get all taggings associated with a specific tag
	all_taggings = an.get_taggings('tag_id')

	# Get a specific tagging
	specific_tagging = an.get_tagging('tag_id', 'tagging_id')

	# Create a tagging
	tagging_payload = {
	  "_links" : {
	    "osdi:person" : { "href" : "https://actionnetwork.org/api/v2/people/123" }
	  }
	}
	created_tagging = an.create_tagging('tag_id', tagging_payload)
	# Result
	created_tagging = {
	  "_links": {
	    "self": {
	      "href": "https://actionnetwork.org/api/v2/tags/123/taggings/123"
	    },
	    "osdi:tag": {
	      "href": "https://actionnetwork.org/api/v2/tags/123"
	    },
	    "osdi:person": {
	      "href": "https://actionnetwork.org/api/v2/people/123"
	    },
	    "curies": [
	      {
	        "name": "osdi",
	        "href": "https://actionnetwork.org/docs/v2/{rel}",
	        "templated": true
	      },
	      {
	        "name": "action_network",
	        "href": "https://actionnetwork.org/docs/v2/{rel}",
	        "templated": true
	      }
	    ]
	  },
	  "identifiers": [
	    "action_network:123"
	  ],
	  "created_date": "2014-03-18T22:25:31Z",
	  "modified_date": "2014-03-18T22:25:38Z",
	  "item_type": "osdi:person"
	}

	# Delete a tagging
	an.delete_tagging('tag_id', 'tagging_id')

	# Get all wrappers
	all_wrappers = an.get_wrappers()

	# Get a specific wrapper
	specific_wrapper = an.get_wrapper('wrapper_id')
