# Telstra Messaging

The SDK for the Telstra messaging API which enables you to send and receive SMS
for Australian mobile numbers. For more information about this product, please
see here:
<https://dev.telstra.com/content/messaging-api>.

> :warning: **This SDK is experimental, everything is subject to change**

## Installing

```bash
pip install tls.messaging
```

## Getting Started

Set the `TLS_CLIENT_KEY` and `TLS_CLIENT_SECRET` environment variables. These
are the `Client key` and `Client secret` you can find here:
<https://dev.telstra.com/user/me/apps>.

To send your first SMS:

```python
from tls.messaging import sms

sms.send(to="+61412345678", body="Hi")
```

To set the required environment variables if your application is in `app.py`:

```bash
TLS_CLIENT_KEY="<client key>" TLS_CLIENT_SECRET="<client secret>" python app.py
```

## Authentication

On top of the authentication through the `TLS_CLIENT_KEY` and
`TLS_CLIENT_SECRET` environment variables, authentication through code is also
supported. For example:

```python
from tls.messaging.utils.config import CONFIG

CONFIG.tls_client_key = '<client key>'
CONFIG.tls_client_secret = '<client secret>'
```

This should be done before any interactions requiring authentication, such as
sending a SMS.

## Free Trial

Telstra offers a free trial for the messaging API to help you evaluate whether
it meets your needs. There are some restrictions that apply compared to the
full API, including a maximum number of SMS that can be sent and requiring the

destination. For more information, please see here:
