🔍 Code Extractor

Creates and returns an authenticated requests session for the Remarkable API by instantiating a RemarkableAuth object and calling its authentication method.

Purpose

This function serves as a convenience wrapper to obtain an authenticated HTTP session for making API requests to Remarkable services. It abstracts away the authentication logic by delegating to the RemarkableAuth class, providing a simple interface for users who need to interact with Remarkable's API endpoints. The function is useful in scenarios where you need to make multiple authenticated HTTP requests to Remarkable services without manually handling authentication tokens or session management.

Source Code

def get_authenticated_session() -> Optional[requests.Session]:
    """
    Get an authenticated requests session
    
    Returns:
        requests.Session: Authenticated session if successful, None if failed
    """
    auth = RemarkableAuth()
    return auth.get_authenticated_session()

Return Value

Type: Optional[requests.Session]

Returns an Optional[requests.Session] object. If authentication is successful, returns a configured requests.Session instance with authentication credentials already set up and ready to make authenticated API calls. Returns None if the authentication process fails for any reason (invalid credentials, network issues, etc.). The Session object, when returned, can be used to make HTTP requests with persistent authentication across multiple calls.

Dependencies

• requests

Required Imports

import requests
from typing import Optional

Usage Example

# Get an authenticated session
session = get_authenticated_session()

if session is not None:
    # Use the session to make authenticated requests
    response = session.get('https://api.remarkable.com/some-endpoint')
    if response.status_code == 200:
        data = response.json()
        print(f"Successfully retrieved data: {data}")
    else:
        print(f"Request failed with status: {response.status_code}")
else:
    print("Authentication failed, session is None")

Best Practices

• Always check if the returned session is None before using it to avoid AttributeError exceptions
• Reuse the returned session object for multiple requests to take advantage of connection pooling and persistent authentication
• Close the session when done using session.close() or use it as a context manager if the underlying implementation supports it
• Handle authentication failures gracefully by checking for None return value
• Consider implementing retry logic or error handling around this function call in production code
