Alfresco API Integration with Python 3.x

[amritagupta90]

Hello,
We are developing an application on Python 3 and Angular 4 and want to build a document management system through the alfresco API.To accomplish this we have tried to use CMIS library for python but the library is not supported in python 3. So, requesting the people here to kindly help us with an alternate way for integrating the Alfresco Document Management System in our Application.

Didn't Alfresco REST API work for you API reference | Alfresco Documentation ?

[amritagupta90]

Actually we have gone through the API reference. But, unfortunately we don't know from where to start the calling of API(s).

How to begin the development process is a big question to us. 

Do we need to install the community edition in our local server for API call or we can just call the API for storing the documents?

If the simple call will be enough then what will be the exact API end point (Including domain)?

I will be very grateful if anyone can guide us.

1) For development purposes, you need to install Alfresco to some server or locally, after that REST API will be available
2) Install API Explorer - The REST API Explorer | Alfresco Documentation , it will save a lot of time for you

3) Write phyton code that will communicate with Alfresco by using HTTP calls
