Good Day

I am new to erpnext and would like to do some api calls to erpnext in separate python app, could anyone guide me?

I saw this: http://frappe.local:8000/api/resource/Person/ and tried with this:
http://192.168.2.1:8000/api/resource/Person/, but did not give me anything.

Thank You

instead of [Person] try a standard DocType like Customer

This library will be useful for python

Good Day

Thank You for quick response.

I tried the following:

from frappeclient import FrappeClient

client = FrappeClient(“http://192.168.2.14”, “user”, “password”)

customer_name = client.get_value(“Customer”,“name”,{“website”: “piet@skiet.co.za”})

customer = client.get_doc(“Customer”, customer_name[‘name’])

print customer

I get the following response:

TypeError: ‘NoneType’ object has no attribute ‘getitem’

Sorry this my first call and still need to learn.

Thank You
