@contractkit/contractkit-plugin-python-sdk

ContractKit plugin that generates a Python SDK from .ck contract and operation files. Produces Pydantic v2 models and httpx-based client classes.

Installation

pnpm add @contractkit/contractkit-plugin-python-sdk

Configuration

{
  "plugins": {
    "@contractkit/contractkit-plugin-python-sdk": {
      "baseDir": "python-sdk",
      "packageName": "acme"
    }
  }
}

Options

| Option | Type | Default | Description | |---|---|---|---| | baseDir | string | "python-sdk" | Output directory relative to rootDir | | packageName | string | "Sdk" | Name used for the aggregator SDK class |

Output structure

python-sdk/
├── __init__.py          # SDK aggregator class + __all__ exports
├── _base_client.py      # Shared BaseClient and SdkError classes
├── _models_<name>.py    # Pydantic v2 models (one file per .ck contract file)
├── _client_<name>.py    # httpx client class (one file per .ck operation file)
└── requirements.txt     # Runtime dependencies (httpx, pydantic>=2.0)

Models (_models_*.py)

Each contract declaration becomes a Pydantic v2 BaseModel. Contracts that have readonly or writeonly fields produce separate Input variants following the same rules as the TypeScript plugin:

• Model — read model (no writeonly fields)
• ModelInput — input model (no readonly fields)

Clients (_client_*.py)

Each operation file with at least one public operation generates a client class. Methods correspond to HTTP verbs and are named from the sdk: field in the .ck source. Request and response bodies are typed with the generated Pydantic models.

Aggregator (__init__.py)

The aggregator class (named from packageName) instantiates all client classes and exposes them as attributes. Pass the base URL and optional headers at construction time:

from python_sdk import AcmeSdk

sdk = AcmeSdk(base_url="https://api.acme.com", headers={"Authorization": "Bearer ..."})
payment = sdk.payments.get_payment(id="pay_123")

Base client (_base_client.py)

Provides BaseClient (wraps httpx.Client) and SdkError (raised on non-2xx responses). All generated client classes inherit from BaseClient.

Runtime dependencies

The generated SDK requires:

pydantic>=2.0
httpx

Programmatic use

import { createPythonSdkPlugin } from '@contractkit/contractkit-plugin-python-sdk';

const plugin = createPythonSdkPlugin({
  baseDir: 'sdks/python',
  packageName: 'acme',
});
