Step 1: Install Airstack Python SDK

Use a package manager to install the Airstack Python SDK into your Python project:

pip install airstack

Step 2: Set Environment Variable

Create a new .env file:

touch .env

Add the Airstack API key as the environment variable:

AIRSTACK_API_KEY=YOUR_AIRSTACK_API_KEY

Install python-dotenv package to your project:

pip install python-dotenv

and import it into your Python project to inject the environment variables:

index.py

from dotenv import load_dotenv

load_dotenv()

Step 3: Create API Client

Wrap your application or React component with AirstackClient from the SDK to initialize it with the Airstack API key:

index.py

import os
from airstack.execute_query import AirstackClient

api_key = os.environ.get("AIRSTACK_API_KEY")
if api_key is None:
  raise Exception("Please set the AIRSTACK_API_KEY environment variable")

api_client = AirstackClient(api_key=api_key)

Step 4: Call Your Query

Once you have initialized the SDK, you can use the execute_query to call the Airstack API.

Below you have been provided with Airstack query to fetch the 0x address and Farcaster owned by vitalik.eth:

index.py

import asyncio
from airstack.execute_query import AirstackClient

query = """
query MyQuery {
  Wallet(input: {identity: "vitalik.eth", blockchain: ethereum}) {
    socials {
      dappName
      profileName
    }
    addresses
  }
}
"""



async def main():
  execute_query_client = api_client.create_execute_query_object(query=query)
  query_response = await execute_query_client.execute_query()
  data = query_response.data
  error = query_response.error
  if query_response.error is not None:
    raise Exception(error.message)

  print(data)

asyncio.run(main())

The data variable will return and logged into your terminal as follows:

{
  "data": {
    "Wallet": {
      "socials": [
        {
          "dappName": "farcaster",
          "profileName": "vitalik.eth"
        }
      ],
      "addresses": ["0xd8da6bf26964af9d7eed9e03e53415d37aa96045"]
    }
  }
}
