```
|
||||
|
||||
## ⚙️ Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
### Environment Variables
|
||||
|
||||
Create a `.env` file in your project directory:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Copy the example file
|
||||
cp .env.example .env
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Edit the `.env` file with your Dolibarr configuration:
|
||||
|
||||
```env
|
||||
# Dolibarr API Configuration
|
||||
DOLIBARR_URL=https://your-dolibarr-instance.com/api/index.php

# Logging Configuration
|
||||
LOG_LEVEL=INFO
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Dolibarr API Setup
|

||||
- Enable "Web Services API REST (developer)"
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Create an API key**:
|

|
||||
- Create a new API key for your user
|
||||
- Ensure the user has appropriate permissions
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Test the API**:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
curl -X GET "https://your-dolibarr-instance.com/api/index.php/status" \
|
||||
-H "DOLAPIKEY: your_api_key_here"
|
||||
```

|
||||
|
||||
async def main():
|
||||
config = Config.from_env()

||||
|
||||
async with DolibarrClient(config) as client:
|
||||
# Get customers

```
|
||||
|
||||
## 📝 API Reference
|
||||
|
||||
### Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
The `Config` class manages all configuration:
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
from dolibarr_mcp import Config
|
||||
|
||||
# From environment variables
|
||||
config = Config.from_env()
|
||||
|
||||
# Manual configuration
|
||||
config = Config(
|
||||
dolibarr_url="https://your-instance.com/api/index.php",
|
||||
api_key="your_api_key",
|
||||
log_level="DEBUG"
|
||||
)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Client Usage
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
from dolibarr_mcp import DolibarrClient, Config
|
||||
|
||||
config = Config.from_env()
|
||||
|
||||
async with DolibarrClient(config) as client:
|
||||
# All operations here
|
||||
pass
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Error Handling
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
from dolibarr_mcp import DolibarrAPIError
|
||||
|
||||
try:
|
||||
result = await client.get_customers()
|
||||
except DolibarrAPIError as e:
|
||||
print(f"API Error: {e.message}")
|
||||
print(f"Status Code: {e.status_code}")
|
||||
print(f"Response Data: {e.response_data}")
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
