gel-python is the official Gel driver for Python. It provides both blocking IO and asyncio implementations.
The library requires Python 3.8 or later.
The project documentation can be found here.
The library is available on PyPI. Use pip to install it:
$ pip install gel
import datetime
import gel
def main():
client = gel.create_client()
# Create a User object type
client.execute('''
CREATE TYPE User {
CREATE REQUIRED PROPERTY name -> str;
CREATE PROPERTY dob -> cal::local_date;
}
''')
# Insert a new User object
client.query('''
INSERT User {
name := <str>$name,
dob := <cal::local_date>$dob
}
''', name='Bob', dob=datetime.date(1984, 3, 1))
# Select User objects.
user_set = client.query(
'SELECT User {name, dob} FILTER .name = <str>$name', name='Bob')
# *user_set* now contains
# Set{Object{name := 'Bob', dob := datetime.date(1984, 3, 1)}}
# Close the client.
client.close()
