# openapi-core
Openapi-core is a Python library that provides client-side and server-side support
for the [OpenAPI v3.0](https://github.com/OAI/OpenAPI-Specification/blob/master/versions/3.0.3.md)
and [OpenAPI v3.1](https://github.com/OAI/OpenAPI-Specification/blob/main/versions/3.1.0.md) specifications.
## Key features
- [Validation](validation.md) and [Unmarshalling](unmarshalling.md) of request and response data (including webhooks)
- [Integrations](integrations/index.md) with popular libraries (Requests, Werkzeug) and frameworks (Django, Falcon, Flask, Starlette)
- [Configuration](configuration.md) with **media type deserializers** and **format unmarshallers**
- [Security](security.md) data providers (API keys, Cookie, Basic, and Bearer HTTP authentications)
## Installation
=== "Pip + PyPI (recommended)"
``` console
pip install openapi-core
```
=== "Pip + the source"
``` console
pip install -e git+https://github.com/python-openapi/openapi-core.git#egg=openapi_core
```
## First steps
First, create your OpenAPI object.
```python
from openapi_core import OpenAPI
openapi = OpenAPI.from_file_path('openapi.json')
```
Now you can use it to validate and unmarshal your requests and/or responses.
```python
# raises an error if the request is invalid
result = openapi.unmarshal_request(request)
```
Retrieve validated and unmarshalled request data:
```python
# get parameters
path_params = result.parameters.path
query_params = result.parameters.query
cookies_params = result.parameters.cookies
headers_params = result.parameters.headers
# get body
body = result.body
# get security data
security = result.security
```
The request object should implement the OpenAPI Request protocol. Check [Integrations](integrations/index.md) to find officially supported implementations.
For more details, read about the [Unmarshalling](unmarshalling.md) process.
If you just want to validate your request/response data without unmarshalling, read about [Validation](validation.md) instead.
