Oda Workday client

A Python client library made for Oda's implementation of the various Workday APIs.

Released publicly for inspiration and ease of implementation on our end, but is not maintained based on community needs.

Usage

Import the relevant client services from .api, and type definitions from .types.$SERVICE. Importing business logic directly from inside .service should not be required.

Example:

# Get all workers with currently active data
from datetime import date
from oda_wd_client.api import HumanResources

hr = HumanResources(
    base_url="https://wd3-impl-services1.workday.com/",
    tenant_name="mycompany",
    username="admin",
    password="hunter2"
)

all_workers = list(hr.get_workers(as_of_date=date.today()))

# If the result is not cast to a list, you get a generator that can be iterated over and will only get new data (new 
# page in paginated data) when required

Structure

All API services are exposed under oda_wd_client.api. Each WWS service has a separate directory structure under oda_wd_client.service, where specific logic for each service is collected. The common definitions and bases are collected under oda_wd_client.base.

The import hierarchy is as following,

  • .api imports from .service.$SERVICE.api, which import from .base.api
  • .service.$SERVICE.api imports from . service.$SERVICE.types and .service.$SERVICE.utils
  • .service.$SERVICE.utils imports from .base.utils and .service.$SERVICE.types
  • .service.$SERVICE.types imports from .base.types
  • .base.tools should not import anything from this package, so importing from .base.tools should be safe anywhere
