everPay Python SDK Documentation
The Arweave Asia Summer Hackathon, co-hosted by PermaDAO, SCPVenture, and TintinLand, has officially begun and is now open for registration! To enable developers to seamlessly develop on Arweave, we will be sharing a series of user-friendly development tools. In this edition, we will introduce the everPay Python SDK.
The everPay Python SDK is an officially maintained lightweight Python SDK that serves as a tool library for accessing the everPay API. The source code is available on the GitHub repository. The main purpose of the Python SDK is to assist Python developers in quickly utilising the everPay protocol for development and serve as a supplementary integration tutorial for everPay.
Install Python SDK
Install via pip
pip install everpay
Set up wallet
everPay supports Ethereum and Arweave wallets for transactions.
import everpay #everPay provides a test environment 'https://api_dev.everpay.io' api_server = '<https://api.everpay.io>' #Set up the private key of the Ethereum wallet account pk = '' signer = everpay.ETHSigner(pk) account = everpay.Account(api_server, signer) #Set up an Arweave wallet account signer = everpay.ARSigner('arweave-keyfile-xxx.json') account = everpay.Account(api_server, signer)
Query everPay related information
Support queries for the following information
Summary of basic information about the everPay protocol, including lock-up addresses and supported tokens.
List of tokens supported by the everPay protocol.
Labels for tokens supported by the everPay protocol and native chain information related to the assets. In some occasions, two tokens may have the same name. For example, the USDC token bridged from Ethereum and the USDC token bridged from BSC both have the same token name as "USDC". In such cases, you should use the label to differentiate between the two tokens.
Query for account asset information.
Please provide the address and token name as parameters for the query.
import everpay api_server = '<https://api.everpay.io>' client = everpay.Client(api_server) #Query the basic information of the everPay protocol, including lock-up address, supported tokens and other information info = client.get_info() #Query the list of tokens supported by the everPay protocol support_tokens = client.get_support_tokens() #everPay protocol supports the labeling of tokens and related asset issuance protogenesis chain information token_list = client.get_token_list() #Account asset information query ar_balance = client.get_balance('0x5609FEc21fa681369e742994ca5D88B034D98E2F', 'ar')
Transfer transactions
The transfer method of everPay Python SDK can send transfer request. For each transfer, the following parameters need to be provided:
Tokens for making transfers
Payment address
Transfer amount
import everpay api_server = '<https://api.everpay.io>' #Demo with Ethereum Wallet private_key = '' signer = everpay.ETHSigner(private_key) account = everpay.Account(api_server, signer) #Token decimals can be obtained in the get_info function t, result = account.transfer('usdt', '0x911F42b0229c15bBB38D648B7Aa7CA480eD977d6', 10**6) #t.ever_hash Query transfer hash, result query transfer status print(t.ever_hash) print(result)
Bundle Transactions
Bundle transactions and batch transfers extend the functionality of the 'transfer' transaction. They include external transfers with the existing 'transfer' functionality and internal batch transfers achieved through a specific data field.
The data field contains multiple internal transfer transactions, as well as the signature of the account for all transfer transaction information. All internal transfers within the data field must succeed; if one fails, all internal transfers will roll back. A bundle transaction can only be executed once and cannot be executed again, regardless of the success or failure of the internal transfers.
Using bundle transactions, you can build additional functionalities such as decentralised exchanges, allowing the exchange of multiple types of tokens within a single transaction. You can leverage the features of bundle transactions to create more products.

Note
If you encounter any issues while using the SDK documentation, please feel free to refer to the source code or seek assistance from the official admin on Discord.
everPay provides a testing environment at 'https://api_dev.everpay.io'. You can obtain some test tokens from the testnet faucet at https://faucet-dev.everpay.io/.
