The `python-asana` library provides a client for interacting with the Asana API, structured around a central `API Client` that manages request lifecycle and delegates low-level HTTP communication to the `REST Communication` component. Configuration settings are handled by the `Configuration` component, which the `API Client` utilizes. Various `API Endpoints` offer a high-level interface for specific Asana resources, relying on the `API Client` for their operations. For handling large datasets, the `Pagination` component provides iterators that interact with the `API Client` to fetch paginated results efficiently.

Components

API Client

The central client for interacting with the Asana API. It handles request preparation, serialization, deserialization, and delegates actual HTTP communication to the REST Communication layer. It also manages user-agent and default headers.

REST Communication

Responsible for making low-level HTTP requests to the Asana API and handling responses, including error handling (ApiException). It utilizes urllib3 for managing connection pools and performing HTTP operations.

Configuration

Manages the API client's configuration settings, such as authentication credentials, host information, SSL verification, logging, and retry strategies.

API Endpoints

A collection of classes, each providing methods to interact with specific Asana resources (e.g., Tasks, Projects, Users). These classes abstract the API calls for different resource types and utilize the API Client for underlying communication.

Pagination

Provides iterators for handling paginated responses from the Asana API, allowing efficient retrieval of large datasets. It interacts with the API Client to fetch subsequent pages of data.
