Attributes¶
base_url
property
¶
Root URL of the connected DHIS2 instance.
version_key
property
¶
Return the generated-client version key (e.g. "v42"); requires connect().
raw_version
property
¶
Return the raw version string reported by the server (e.g. "2.42.0").
resources
property
¶
Return the version-bound generated Resources accessor; requires connect().
system_cache
property
¶
Per-client TTL cache for system-level reads; None when caching is disabled.
Functions¶
__init__(base_url, auth, *, timeout=30.0, connect_timeout=60.0, allow_version_fallback=False, version=Dhis2.V42, retry_policy=None, http_limits=None, system_cache_ttl=300.0)
¶
Build a client. Call connect() or use as an async context manager before API calls.
version defaults to Dhis2.V42 — the line we target across the
workspace. Set explicitly (Dhis2.V41, Dhis2.V44, etc.) when
targeting a different major, or pass None to let the client
auto-detect via /api/system/info on connect(). Pinning skips
that roundtrip and fails fast on a server version with no
matching generated module.
retry_policy (default: no retries) enables exponential-backoff
retries on transient failures — connection errors plus the status
codes listed on RetryPolicy.retry_statuses (default 429 / 502 /
503 / 504). Non-idempotent methods (POST, PATCH) are exempt unless
the policy sets retry_non_idempotent=True. See
dhis2w_client.retry.RetryPolicy for tuning knobs.
http_limits overrides the httpx connection-pool defaults (100
max connections, 20 keepalive). Raise them for high-concurrency
batch workflows; lower them to protect a small DHIS2 instance
from a large asyncio.gather. See
docs/architecture/client.md for guidance.
system_cache_ttl (default 300 s) caps how long cached system-level
reads (client.system.info(), the default categoryCombo UID, and
per-key system settings) stay fresh before the next call refetches.
Pass None to disable the cache entirely. connect() primes the
cache from the info fetch it already performs, so the first
client.system.info() after connect costs zero round-trips.

__aenter__()
async
¶
__aexit__(exc_type, exc, tb)
async
¶
connect()
async
¶
Open the HTTP pool and bind the generated module matching the remote version.
Source code in packages/dhis2w-client/src/dhis2w_client/client.py
close()
async
¶
get_raw(path, params=None)
async
¶
Raw GET returning parsed JSON; used internally and as an escape hatch.
Source code in packages/dhis2w-client/src/dhis2w_client/client.py
get(path, model, params=None)
async
¶
Typed GET returning an instance of model parsed from JSON.
Source code in packages/dhis2w-client/src/dhis2w_client/client.py
post(path, body, *, model, params=None)
async
¶
Typed POST returning an instance of model parsed from JSON.
Used most often with model=WebMessageResponse to parse
/api/metadata envelopes into the typed summary shape without
a trailing WebMessageResponse.model_validate(raw) at the
call site.
Source code in packages/dhis2w-client/src/dhis2w_client/client.py
put(path, body, *, model, params=None)
async
¶
Typed PUT returning an instance of model parsed from JSON.
Source code in packages/dhis2w-client/src/dhis2w_client/client.py
patch(path, body, *, model, params=None, content_type='application/json-patch+json')
async
¶
Typed PATCH returning an instance of model parsed from JSON.
Used with model=WebMessageResponse for metadata patches so the
call site doesn't need a trailing WebMessageResponse.model_validate(raw).
Source code in packages/dhis2w-client/src/dhis2w_client/client.py
delete(path, *, model, params=None)
async
¶
Typed DELETE returning an instance of model parsed from JSON.
Most callers use model=WebMessageResponse since DHIS2 deletes
return the standard envelope.
Source code in packages/dhis2w-client/src/dhis2w_client/client.py
post_raw(path, body=None, *, params=None)
async
¶
Raw POST returning parsed JSON.
Source code in packages/dhis2w-client/src/dhis2w_client/client.py
put_raw(path, body=None, *, params=None)
async
¶
Raw PUT returning parsed JSON.
Source code in packages/dhis2w-client/src/dhis2w_client/client.py
delete_raw(path, *, params=None)
async
¶
Raw DELETE returning parsed JSON (or empty dict).
Source code in packages/dhis2w-client/src/dhis2w_client/client.py
patch_raw(path, body, *, params=None, content_type='application/json-patch+json')
async
¶
Raw PATCH returning parsed JSON. Defaults to JSON Patch (RFC 6902) content type.
