frappe-api

Use frappe.get_doc within the Frappe Python API to fetch document records by specifying the doctype and name. This method loads the complete document object, allowing direct field access and modification in server-side Python scripts for application development.

Query the Frappe database using frappe.db methods like get_value for single fields, get_all for filtered record lists, or sql for raw queries. These utilities accelerate data extraction in Python scripts without requiring manual SQL statement construction.

Yes, frappe.call enables JavaScript clients to securely invoke whitelisted Python methods on the server. This utility handles asynchronous requests, passing arguments to the target function and returning the response directly to the browser for client-side processing.

Frappe REST API patterns expose standard CRUD operations through HTTP endpoints mapped to whitelisted methods. Developers send requests to resource URLs to create, read, update, and delete documents, receiving structured JSON responses for integration and client-side processing.

Initialize a new record using frappe.new_doc by passing the target doctype, populate its fields, and invoke the save method. This Frappe API workflow creates the document object, applies the assigned data, and commits the transaction directly to the database.

Yes, the Frappe API reference comprehensively covers server-side Python and client-side JavaScript utilities. It provides complete method coverage and practical examples for document operations, database queries, and REST interactions across both programming environments.
