Python BatchMailchimp

PyPI Package latest release

License

A light wrapper around mailchimp-marketing that makes it easier to use batch operations.

Getting Started

Installation

pip install batch-mailchimp

Usage

This can be used as a drop-in replacement for mailchimp-marketing – just change the import at the top, and everything should work the same:

import batch_mailchimp as MailchimpMarketing

client = MailchimpMarketing.Client({
    "api_key": "YOUR_API_KEY",
})

The additional functionality comes when we initialise the client with batch=True:

import batch_mailchimp as MailchimpMarketing

client = MailchimpMarketing.Client({
    "api_key": "YOUR_API_KEY",
    "batch": True,
})

If we do this, operations are stored up in the client, to be run later. For example:

# Fetch all MailChimp lists
client.lists.get_all_lists()

All new operations will be added to the batch. When we’re ready, we can run all the operations in the batch:

batch = batch_client.batches.run()

We can check the batch’s status using:

batch.status(refresh=True)

Once it has finished, we can get the response with:

response = batch.response()
response.body

API Structure and Endpoints

The API structure and endpoints match that of mailchimp-marketing. You should refer to their documentation for usage.
