steampy is a library for Python, inspired by node-steam-tradeoffers, node-steam and other libraries for Node.js. It was designed as a simple lightweight library, combining features of many steam libraries from Node.js into a single python module. steampy is capable of logging into steam, fetching trade offers and handling them in simple manner, using steam user credentials and SteamGuard file, or by passing sessionID and webCookie cookies. 'steampy' is also capable of using proxies. steampy is developed with Python 3 using type hints and many other features its supported for Windows, Linux and MacOs.

Installation

Requires python 3.12 at least

pip install steampy

Usage

Obtaining API Key

Obtaining SteamGuard from mobile device

Obtaining SteamGuard using Android emulation

** init(self, api_key: str, username: str = None, password: str = None, steam_guard: str = None, login_cookies: dict = None, proxies: dict = None) -> None:**

SteamClient needs at least api_key to provide some functionalities. User can also provide username, password and SteamGuard file to be able to log in and use more methods. Proxies are also supported.

from steampy.client import SteamClient

steam_client = SteamClient('MY_API_KEY')
steam_client.login('MY_USERNAME', 'MY_PASSWORD', 'PATH_TO_STEAMGUARD_FILE')

User can also provide login_cookies from browser to log in by cookies.

from steampy.client import SteamClient

login_cookies = {} # provide dict with cookies
steam_client = SteamClient('MY_API_KEY',username='MY_USERNAME',login_cookies=login_cookies)
assert steam_client.was_login_executed

proxies dict can be provided for using proxy for internal SteamClient session.

from steampy.client import SteamClient

proxies =  {
    "http": "http://login:password@host:port", 
    "https": "http://login:password@host:port"
}

steam_client = SteamClient('MY_API_KEY', proxies=proxies)

If you have steamid, shared_secret and identity_secret you can place it in file Steamguard.txt instead of fetching SteamGuard file from device.

{
    "steamid": "YOUR_STEAM_ID_64",
    "shared_secret": "YOUR_SHARED_SECRET",
    "identity_secret": "YOUR_IDENTITY_SECRET"
}

Examples

You'll need to obtain your API key and SteamGuard file in order to run the examples, and then fill login and password in storehose.py file. The storehouse.py file contains an example of handling incoming trade offers.

python storehouse.py

If you want to generate authentication codes and use steampy as steam desktop authenticator then fill required secrets in desktop_authenticator.py file. The desktop_authenticator.py file contains examples of generating such one time codes/

python desktop_authenticator.py

SteamClient methods

Unless specified in documentation, the method does not require login to work(it uses API Key from constructor instead)

def set_proxy(self, proxy: dict) -> dict

Set proxy for steampy session, example:

from steampy.client import SteamClient

steam_client = SteamClient('MY_API_KEY')
proxies =  {
    "http": "http://login:password@host:port", 
    "https": "http://login:password@host:port"
}
steam_client.set_proxies(proxies)

def set_login_cookies(self, cookies: dict) -> None

Set login cookies, can be used instead of normal login method.

from steampy.client import SteamClient

login_cookies = {} # provide dict with cookies
steam_client = SteamClient('MY_API_KEY',username='MY_USERNAME',login_cookies=login_cookies)
assert steam_client.was_login_executed

login(username: str, password: str, steam_guard: str) -> requests.Response

Log into the steam account. Allows to accept trade offers and some other methods.

from steampy.client import SteamClient

steam_client = SteamClient('MY_API_KEY')
steam_client.login('MY_USERNAME', 'MY_PASSWORD', 'PATH_TO_STEAMGUARD_FILE')

You can also use with statement to automatically login and logout.

from steampy.client import SteamClient

with SteamClient('MY_API_KEY', 'MY_USERNAME', 'MY_PASSWORD', 'PATH_TO_STEAMGUARD_FILE') as client:
    client.some_method1(...)
    client.some_method2(...)
    ...

logout() -> None

Using SteamClient.login method is required before usage Logout from steam.

from steampy.client import SteamClient

steam_client = SteamClient('MY_API_KEY')
steam_client.login('MY_USERNAME', 'MY_PASSWORD', 'PATH_TO_STEAMGUARD_FILE')
steam_client.logout()

You can also use with statement to automatically login and logout.

from steampy.client import SteamClient

with SteamClient('MY_API_KEY', 'MY_USERNAME', 'MY_PASSWORD', 'PATH_TO_STEAMGUARD_FILE') as client:
    client.some_method1(...)
    client.some_method2(...)
    ...

is_session_alive() -> None

Using SteamClient.login method is required before usage Check if session is alive. This method fetches main page and check if user name is there. Thanks for vasia123 for this solution.

from steampy.client import SteamClient

steam_client = SteamClient('MY_API_KEY')
steam_client.login('MY_USERNAME', 'MY_PASSWORD', 'PATH_TO_STEAMGUARD_FILE')
is_session_alive = steam_client.is_session_alive()

api_call(request_method: str, interface: str, api_method: str, version: str, params: dict = None) -> requests.Response

Directly call api method from the steam api services.

Official steam api site

Unofficial but more elegant

from steampy.client import SteamClient

steam_client = SteamClient('MY_API_KEY')
params = {'key': 'MY_API_KEY'}
summaries =  steam_client.api_call('GET', 'IEconService', 'GetTradeOffersSummary', 'v1', params).json()

get_trade_offers_summary() -> dict

get_trade_offers(merge: bool = True, get_sent_offers: bool = True, get_received_offers: bool = True, use_webtoken: bool =False, max_retry:int = 5) -> dict

Fetching trade offers from steam using an API call. Method is fetching offers with descriptions that satisfy conditions:

* Are sent by us or others
* Are active (means they have `trade_offer_state` set to 2 (Active))
* Are not historical
* No time limitation

If merge is set True then offer items are merged from items data and items description into dict where items id is key and descriptions merged with data are value.

get_sent_offers and get_received_offers control which offers are fetched.

max_retry controls how many retries the api call will try.

get_trade_offer(trade_offer_id: str, merge: bool = True, use_webtoken:bool =False) -> dict

if use_webtoken is True, then request sent will contain access_token instead of api_key

get_trade_receipt(trade_id: str) -> list

Using SteamClient.login method is required before usage Getting the receipt for a trade with all item information after the items has been traded. Do NOT store any item ids before you got the receipt since the ids may change. "trade_id" can be found in trade offers: offer['response']['offer']['tradeid']. Do not use ´tradeofferid´.

make_offer(items_from_me: List[Asset], items_from_them: List[Asset], partner_steam_id: str, message:str ='') -> dict

Using SteamClient.login method is required before usage Asset is class defined in client.py, you can obtain asset_id from SteamClient.get_my_inventory method. This method also uses identity secret from SteamGuard file to confirm the trade offer. No need to manually confirm it on mobile app or email. This method works when partner is your friend or steam. In returned dict there will be trade offer id by the key tradeofferid.

from steampy.client import SteamClient, Asset
from steampy.utils import GameOptions

steam_client = SteamClient('MY_API_KEY')
steam_client.login('MY_USERNAME', 'MY_PASSWORD', 'PATH_TO_STEAMGUARD_FILE')
partner_id = 'PARTNER_ID'
game = GameOptions.CS
my_items = steam_client.get_my_inventory(game)
partner_items = steam_client.get_partner_inventory(partner_id, game)
my_first_item = next(iter(my_items.values()))
partner_first_item = next(iter(partner_items.values()))
my_asset = Asset(my_first_item['id'], game)
partner_asset = Asset(partner_first_item['id'], game)
steam_client.make_offer([my_asset], [partner_asset], partner_id, 'Test offer')

make_offer_with_url(items_from_me: List[Asset], items_from_them: List[Asset], trade_offer_url: str, message: str = '', case_sensitive: bool = True) -> dict

Using SteamClient.login method is required before usage This method is similar to SteamClient.make_offer, but it takes trade ur
