Python developer needed

[dabasys]

Hey
Are there any freelance python developers in here?

I need a commandline tool in python, to get data from the betfair api, with football fixtures and their markets.

The tricky part is that I am from Denmark, so the login thing is pretty tricky, when I have to use NemId.

Anybody with experience in this and want to make a few bucks?

Hi,

I am struggling with the same login issue as you and was wondering if you ever found a way?

If you are using betfairlightweight (which you should ) then here is the code:

import re
import betfairlightweight

trading = betfairlightweight.APIClient('username', 'password', app_key='app_key')

resp = trading.session.post(
    url=trading.login_interactive.url,
    data={
        "username": trading.username,
        "password": trading.password,
        "redirectMethod": "POST",
        "product": trading.app_key,
        "url": "https://www.betfair.com",
        "submitForm": True,
    }
)
session_token = re.findall(
    "ssoid=(.*?);", resp.headers["Set-Cookie"]
)
trading.set_session_token(session_token[0])

print(trading.betting.list_event_types())

Hi Liam

Is this still a working script ?

I dont have a ssoid in my resp.headers response. So script will obvius fail.
From my response i see a wsid, so tried that to see if it was changed to that, but then it failed with wrong token..

Hope you can help.
