Slumber is a python library that provides a convenient yet powerful object orientated interface to ReSTful APIs. It acts as a wrapper around the excellent httplib2 library and abstracts away the handling of urls, serialization, and processing requests.

There are two primary ways of getting help. We have a mailing list hosted at Google (http://groups.google.com/group/python-slumber/) and an IRC channel (#slumber on irc.freenode.net) to get help, want to bounce idea or generally shoot the breeze.

1. Install Slumber:

   $ pip install slumber
   

2. Install Optional Requirements:

   pip install simplejson pyyaml
   

3. Use Slumber!

Slumber requires the following modules.

• Python 2.5+
• httplib2
• simplejson (If using Python 2.5, or you desire the speedups for JSON serialization)
• pyyaml (If you are using the optional yaml serialization)
