Aioarxiv

An async Python client for the arXiv API with enhanced performance and flexible configuration options.

⚠️ Warning: This project is currently in beta. Not recommended for production use.

Features

• Asynchronous API calls for better performance
• Flexible search and download capabilities
• Customizable rate limiting and concurrent requests
• Simple error handling

Installation

pip install aioarxiv

Quick Start

import asyncio
from aioarxiv import ArxivClient


async def main():
    async with ArxivClient() as client:
        async for paper in client.search("quantum computing", max_results=1):
            print(f"Title: {paper.title}")
            print(f"Authors: {', '.join(a.name for a in paper.authors)}")
            print(f"Summary: {paper.summary[:200]}...")

            # Download PDF
            file_path = await client.download_paper(paper)
            print(f"Downloaded to: {file_path}")


if __name__ == "__main__":
    asyncio.run(main())

Configuration

from aioarxiv import ArxivConfig, ArxivClient

config = ArxivConfig(
    rate_limit_calls=3,  # Rate limit per window
    rate_limit_period=1.0,  # Window period in seconds
    max_concurrent_requests=3  # Max concurrent requests
)

client = ArxivClient(config=config)

Error Handling

try:
    async for paper in client.search("quantum computing"):
        print(paper.title)
except SearchCompleteException:
    print("Search complete")

Requirements

• Python 3.9 or higher
