Clickatell Python API
This Package provides a Python API for the Clickatell SMS Gateway.
The code is based on pyclickatell released 2006 by Jacques Marneweck under the MIT license.
Download and Install
- clickatell-0.1.tar.gz (md5: 136cc76795bc55d1209748f30f8e609d)
Get the package, unpack it and run
sudo python setup.py install. Then
read the README file and set up your credentials.
You can also add the
clickatell directory inside the unpacked archive
directly to your PYTHONPATH, if you prefer not use setup.py.
Usage
After installing the package, a script named
sms will be added to your
systems path. You can now run:
sms <phonenumber> <text>
to send an sms with 'text' to 'phonenumber'.
If you want to use the API from within your own python code you can see the sms script for an example implementation.
from clickatell import Clickatell gateway = Clickatell(USERNAME, PASSWORD, API_ID) message = {'to': '49171234234', 'text': 'This is an example text'} retval, msg = gateway.sendmsg(message) if retval == 0: # success # ... else: # error print msg
