# Introduction

This python package is a set of Salesforce.com, Veeva Network, and Veeva Vault libraries, scripts, and functions used to help expedite the development of Veeva Tools.
<br/>
<br/>

# Installation / Requirements

Ensure you have **at least Python version 3.10** installed.
To Check your installation version, type the following commands in the terminal (MacOs) / command prompt (Windows):
```
python --version
```
To install python, go to https://www.python.org/ then navigate to the download page of your Operating System.

You will need to have Packager Installer for Python (pip) installed. To install pip, run the following command in the terminal (MacOs) / command prompt (Windows):

```
curl https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py -o get-pip.py
python3 get-pip.py
```
To install the Veeva Tools library:

```
pip install veevatools
```
To upgrade to the latest version of Veeva Tools library:
```
pip install veevatools --upgrade
```

# Overview

The Veeva Tools package currently contains 3 major components:
## Salesforce library

### Authentication:

```python
from salesforce import Sf
from pandas import pd
sf = Sf()
sf.authenticate(
    sfUsername='yourname@salesforce.com',
    sfPassword='password123',
    sfOrgId='00D2C0000008jIK',
    isSandbox= false
    )
```
> Sidenote on Pandas DataFrames: <br/>
Pandas DataFrame (pd) is used to prepare the data for import (i.e. create, update methods) and additional export methods such as pd.to_excel() in order to save the output into an Excel file.<br/>
Additionally, Complex data manipuation (joins, merges, groupbys, filters)and data analytics (describe, statistical analysis) can all be performed using Pandas. <br />
To learn more about Pandas DataFrames, go to the [Pandas documentation](https://pandas.pydata.org/docs/reference/api/pandas.DataFrame.html)
<br \>
> Or just Google tutorials on Pandas DataFrames. 
[This YouTube playlist by Corey Schafer](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZyhVh-qRZPA&list=PL-osiE80TeTsWmV9i9c58mdDCSskIFdDS&ab_channel=CoreySchafer)
provides an excellent starting point into the world of Pandas!

<br/>

### Data methods:
The salesforce class (Sf) contains methods that can help you interact with data and metadata components:
<br/>
#### **Query**

```python
account_recordtypes = sf.query("SELECT Id, Name, SobjectType from RecordType WHERE SobjectType = 'Account'")]

account_recordtypes
```

`Return -> pd.DataFrame():`
|    |                 Id |                      Name | SobjectType |
|---:|-------------------:|--------------------------:|------------:|
|  0 | 012f4000001ArT3AAK |          Professional_vod |     Account |
|  1 | 012f4000001ArT4AAK |           Institution_vod |     Account |
|  2 | 012f4000001ArT5AAK |                   MCO_vod |     Account |
|  3 | 012f4000001ArT6AAK |          Organization_vod |     Account |
|  4 | 012f4000001ArWzAAK |              Hospital_vod |     Account |

> Sidenote: <br />
You can use any Pandas (pd) methods on the return value of the query output. For example <br/>```account_recordtypes.to_excel("Account RecordTypes.xlsx")``` <br/>
Will save the results of the DataFrame into an Excel file.

<br/>

### **Create**
```python
## Takes a DataFrame of CRM records and creates records in CRM

account_records = pd.DataFrame([{'FirstName': 'Test', 'LastName': 'Account'}, {'FirstName': 'Test2', 'LastName': 'Account2'}])

result = sf.create('Account', account_records)

result
```
`Return -> pd.DataFrame():`
|   | success | created |                 Id |
|--:|--------:|--------:|-------------------:|
| 0 |    True |    True | 0010r00000tF7L1AAK |
| 1 |    True |    True | 0010r00000tF7L2AAK |

<br/>

### Update
```python
### Takes a dataframe that contains at least the Id column
### and any other column to be updated, for example, FirstName
update_account_name = pd.DataFrame(
    [{'FirstName': 'Updated', 'Id': '0010r00000tF7L1AAK'},
     {'FirstName': 'Name', 'Id': '0010r00000tF7L2AAK'}]
    )

result = sf.update('Account', update_account_name)

result
```
`Return -> pd.DataFrame()`
|   | success | created |                 Id |
|--:|--------:|--------:|-------------------:|
| 0 |    True |   False | 0010r00000tF7L1AAK |
| 1 |    True |   False | 0010r00000tF7L2AAK |
<br/>

### Upsert
```python
### Takes a dataframe that contains an external ID column
### and any other column to be updated, for example, Name
### if the external ID matches an existing record,
### the account is updated, otherwise, a new record is created

upsert_account = pd.DataFrame(
    [{'NET_External_Id__c': '242977178138969088', 'Name': 'Updated Hospital Name'},
     {'NET_External_Id__c': '555579769212255555', 'Name': 'Create New Hospital'}]
    )

result = sf.upsert(object_api='Account', external_id_field_api='NET_External_Id__c', record_dataframe=upsert_account)

result
```
`Return -> pd.DataFrame()`
|   | success | created |                 id |
|--:|--------:|--------:|-------------------:|
| 0 |    True |   False | 001f400000PKOrwAAH |
| 1 |    True |    True | 0010r00000tF7stAAC |

<br/>

### Delete
```python
### Takes a dataframe that contains the Id column
### deletes records listed based on their SFID.

delete_account = pd.DataFrame([{'Id': '0010r00000tF7stAAC'}, {'Id': '001f400000PKOrwAAH'}])

result = sf.delete(object_api='Account', record_dataframe=delete_account)

result
```
`Return -> pd.DataFrame()`

|   | success | created |                 Id |
|--:|--------:|--------:|-------------------:|
| 0 |    True |   False | 0010r00000tF7stAAC |
| 1 |    True |   False | 001f400000PKOrwAAH |
