Google Wallet Python samples

Overview

The files in this directory each implement a demo class for a specific Google Wallet pass type. Each class implements methods for performing tasks such as creating a pass class, updating issuer permissions, and more.

Pass type File
Event tickets demo_eventticket.py
Flight boarding passes demo_flight.py
Generic passes demo_generic.py
Gift cards demo_giftcard.py
Loyalty program membership demo_loyalty.py
Offers and promotions demo_offer.py
Transit passes demo_transit.py

Prerequisites

Environment variables

The following environment variables must be set. Alternatively, you can update the code files to set the values directly. They can be found in the constructor for each class file.

Enviroment variable Description Example
GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS Path to a Google Cloud service account key file /path/to/key.json

How to use the code samples

  1. Create a virtual environment in your workspace

    # This creates a .venv directory in the current working path
    python3 -m venv .venv
  2. Activate the virtual environment

    # This must be run in the same location as the .venv directory
    source .venv/bin/activate
  3. Use pipenv to install the dependencies in the Pipfile

    # This must be run from the same location as the Pipfile
    pipenv install
  4. In your Python code, import a demo class and call its method(s). An example can be found below

    # Import the demo class
    from .demo_eventticket import DemoEventTicket
    
    # Create a demo class instance
    # Creates the authenticated HTTP client
    demo = DemoEventTicket()
    
    # Create a pass class
    demo.create_class(issuer_id='issuer_id',
                      class_suffix='class_suffix')
    
    # Update a pass class
    demo.update_class(issuer_id='issuer_id',
                      class_suffix='class_suffix')
    
    # Patch a pass class
    demo.patch_class(issuer_id='issuer_id',
                     class_suffix='class_suffix')
    
    # Add a message to a pass class
    demo.add_class_message(issuer_id='issuer_id',
                           class_suffix='class_suffix',
                           header='header',
                           body='body')
    
    # Create a pass object
    demo.create_object(issuer_id='issuer_id',
                       class_suffix='class_suffix',
                       object_suffix='object_suffix')
    
    # Update a pass object
    demo.update_object(issuer_id='issuer_id',
                       object_suffix='object_suffix')
    
    # Patch a pass object
    demo.patch_object(issuer_id='issuer_id',
                      object_suffix='object_suffix')
    
    # Add a message to a pass object
    demo.add_object_message(issuer_id='issuer_id',
                            object_suffix='object_suffix',
                            header='header',
                            body='body')
    
    # Expire a pass object
    demo.expire_object(issuer_id='issuer_id',
                       object_suffix='object_suffix')
    
    # Create an "Add to Google Wallet" link
    # that generates a new pass class and object
    demo.create_jwt_new_objects(issuer_id='issuer_id',
                                class_suffix='class_suffix',
                                object_suffix='object_suffix')
    
    # Create an "Add to Google Wallet" link
    # that references existing pass classes and objects
    demo.create_jwt_existing_objects(issuer_id='issuer_id')
    
    # Create pass objects in batch
    demo.batch_create_objects(issuer_id='issuer_id',
                              class_suffix='class_suffix')
