Poynt API - Python Sample

A simple Python sample demonstrating the usage of Poynt Cloud APIs.

Installing

$ sudo pip install PyJWT
$ sudo pip install cryptography
$ sudo pip install requests
$ sudo pip install rsa
$ sudo pip install PIL

Usage

./src/PoyntAPI.py

Note that you might need to give executable permissions to the file or you can just run:

python src/PoyntAPI.py

Optional args:

• -v for verbose logging
• -e ci or live to switch between live and ci environments

NOTE: Default configs are provided to help you quickly run and see how this works. Please update config/poynt.ini with your application settings so you have better control on your application and test business data.

If the script fails with requests.exceptions.ConnectionError: ('Connection aborted.', error(54, 'Connection reset by peer')) you may need to update your python installation to support TLS 1.2. If you use Homebrew, follow these steps:

1. brew update
2. brew install openssl
3. brew link openssl --force
4. brew install python --with-brewed-openssl

Once done run which python in Terminal and check the python script to make sure the path to your python binary matches (i.e. #!/usr/bin/python or #!/usr/local/bin/python)
