PostNL Locations

A Python wrapper for using the PostNL locations SOAP API. You can find the source code here: python-postnl-locations.

Compatibility

This package is depending on suds-jurko , a fully compatible version of the original package with some bug fixes and speed improvements, and has support for python3 as well. So this package depends on it (suds-py3 still has some compatibility issues).

Usage

To use this package follow these steps:

1. Install this python package someway. (pip install postnl-locations)
2. In your project, create a settings dictionary with at least the following parameters:

MY_SETTINGS = {
    # this is the testservice wsdl, see the PostNL documentation for the production settings
    'wsdl': "https://testservice.postnl.com/CIF_SB/LocationWebService/2_0/?wsdl",
    'countrycode': 'NL',
    'username': "my-username",
     # the password is SHA1 hashed
    'password': "my-sha1-hashed-password",
}

3. Use the client as following:

from postnl.locations.client import Locations

locations = Locations(settings=MY_SETTINGS)
my_locations = locations.nearest_locations(postalcode="6821AD")

Take a look at the settings.py for more options (you can adjust the results with a custom resultstransform claass for example).
