# Mercado Libre Python API Client (unoffical)

This client is developed and maintened
by [Mercado Radar](https://www.mercadoradar.com.br/?utm_source=mercadolibreclient).

If you have improvements or suggestions, feel free to open a Pull Request
on https://github.com/mercadoradar/mercadolibre-client

## First Steps

Set your app configuration in environment variables as follows:

```shell
MERCADO_LIBRE_APP_CLIENT_ID  
MERCADO_LIBRE_APP_CLIENT_SECRET
MERCADO_LIBRE_REDIRECT_URI  
```

## Authentication

1. Browse
   to `http://auth.mercadolibre.com.ar/authorization?response_type=code&client_id={MERCADO_LIBRE_APP_CLIENT_ID}&redirect_uri={MERCADO_LIBRE_REDIRECT_URI}
2. Pass the query param `code` to the `OAuth().authenticate()` method

```python
from mercadolibre.OAuth import OAuth

...

response = OAuth().authenticate(code=code)
```

3. This will return you an `access_token` and `refresh_token` that should be managed and stored by your application

4. To *private requests* you should always include the `access_token` and `refresh_token` when initiate the
   MercadoLibreAPI

```python
self.mercadolibre = MercadoLibreAPI(access_token=access_token,
                                    refresh_token=refresh_token)

self.mercadolibre.Item().get(id="MLB123456789")
```

5. The client will try to make the private request with the given `access_token`. 
   
   * If it fails because of token expired, it will try to update the token for you using the `refresh_token` provided
   
   * If it fails again, then it will return error
   
   * If there is no need to update the `access_token` it will return `tokens = None` so you don't need to update nothing

6. If the client get a new token, it will be returned to you along with the request response as below:

```python
self.mercadolibre = MercadoLibreAPI(access_token=access_token,
                                    refresh_token=refresh_token)

response, tokens = self.mercadolibre.Item().get(id="MLB123456789")
```

### Public Requests

1. Do not need an `access_token` and `refresh_token`

```python
MercadoLibreAPI().Item().get(id="MLB123456789")
```

### Private Requests

Requests that need authentication, mandatory `access_token` and `refresh_token`

access_token: string

refresh_token: string

```python
from mercadolibre import MercadoLibreAPI

...

self.mercadolibre = MercadoLibreAPI(access_token=access_token,
                                    refresh_token=refresh_token)

self.mercadolibre.Item().get(id="MLB123456789")

...
```
