Installation

The oura_ring module can be installed via pip:

pip install oura-ring

Getting Started

In order to use the Oura client, you must first generate a personal_access_token for your Oura account.

It is best practice to store this value in a .env file:

# Oura credentials
PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN="<PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN>"

You can use python-dotenv to load the enviroment variables for use in code:

import os
from dotenv import load_dotenv

load_dotenv()

pat = os.getenv("PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN") or ""

Once the environment variables are loaded, an OuraClient object can be created:

from oura_ring import OuraClient

# Using a traditional constructor
client = OuraClient(pat)
...

# Using a context manager
with OuraClient(pat) as client:
    ...

API Requests

There are nine different API requests that OuraClient can make. Full Oura API v2 documentation can be found on Oura's website.

Usage With DataFrame

Using Oura API data with a Pandas DataFrame is very straightforward:

>>> import pandas as pd

>>> sleep = client.get_daily_sleep()
>>> pd.json_normalize(sleep)
