Vero is an API wrapper for event logging in your Python application. Fetch your auth token from your Vero account and use the python interface instead of API web hooks.

>>> from vero import VeroEventLogger
>>> logger = VeroEventLogger(auth_token)
>>> user_id = 42
>>> user_data = {
        'full_name': 'Jane Doe'
    }
>>> response = logger.add_user(user_id, user_data)
>>> response.status_code
200

Usage

Create instance

Use the authorization token from your Vero account page to create a VeroEventLogger object.

>>> from vero import VeroEventLogger
>>> auth_token = "foobar"
>>> logger = VeroEventLogger(auth_token)

After creating an instance of VeroEventLogger as logger use any of the following methods to access Vero. All methods will accept the keyword argument development_mode=True to enable logging in test mode.

Add user

Create a new user with the information in user_data. user_email is optional but is needed to trigger emails to the user.

>>> user_id = 1
>>> user_email = 'johndoe@example.com'
>>> user_data = {
        'first name': 'John',
        'last name': 'Doe'
    }
>>> logger.add_user(user_id, user_data, user_email=user_email)

Edit user

Add or change fields in user_data for the user.

>>> user_id = 1
>>> user_data = {
        'first name': 'Jane'
    }
>>> logger.edit_user(user_id, user_data)

Add user tags

Add each tag in tag_list to the user.

>>> user_id = 1
>>> tag_list = ['blue', 'red', 'yellow']
>>> logger.add_tags(user_id, tag_list)

Remove user tags

Remove each tag in tag_list from the user.

>>> user_id = 1
>>> tag_list = ['yellow']
>>> logger.remove_tags(user_id, tag_list)

Unsubscribe user

Unsubscribe the user from triggering future events.

>>> user_id = 1
>>> logger.unsubscribe_user(user_id)

Add event

Note: adding an event with a user id that doesn't exist will create the user.

Event data can contain whatever fields are needed.

>>> user_id = 2
>>> user_email = 'janedoe@example.com'
>>> event_name = 'Visited Website'
>>> event_data = {
        'date': 'today',
        'visited': 'front page'
    }
>>> logger.add_event(event_name, event_data, user_id, user_email=user_email)

Re-identify a user

Change a user's identifier (or ID) in Vero. This method accept their current (old) identifier and the identifier to replace it.

>>> user_id = 1
>>> new_user_id = 2
>>> logger.reidentify_user(user_id, new_user_id)
