Documentation for asyncdagpi

1) Obtain a token

---

Join the discord server here and verify yourself. Once done you can easily apply for a token via the process detailed.

2) Install the library

---

Use pip to install the library

pip install asyncdagpi

3) Initialise the client

---

from asycncdagpi import Client
API_CLIENT = Client('insert_your_token')

With this you should have a working API client that can help you authenticate and process api requests

4) Use One of the Features listed below with your client instance

---

• staticimage
• gif
• usertextimage
• textimage

These categories have a lot of features. A list of features can be found below or in the API documentation at docs

You can use the client with a feature as follows:

async def wanted(image_url:str):
    response = await API_CLIENT.staticimage('wanted',image_url)

5) Using the Response

---

The client returns an url as a default response. If the bytes=True parameter is passed then a BytesIO object is returned instead! The BytesIO response can be used in a lot of ways. Read the documentation here : BytesIOdocs in the BytesIO section.

The examples below depict a few use cases

Obtaining a url to share

async def wanted(image_url:str):
    response = await API_CLIENT.staticimage('wanted',image_url)
    return (response)

Saving Response to file

async def wanted(image_url:str):
    response = await API_CLIENT.staticimage('wanted',image_url,bytes=True)
    with open('wanted.png''wb') as out:
        out.write(response.read())

Opening The response with Pillow (PIL)

from PIL import Image
async def wanted(image_url:str):
    response = await API_CLIENT.staticimage('wanted',image_url,bytes=True)
    image = Image.open(response)

Using the Discord.py library and sending response as a an image in an embed

please do remember to get a discord api token and run the bot using that.

Get help with discord.py at dpy server

import discord
from discord.ext import commands
bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix = '.')
@bot.command()
async def wanted(ctximage_url:str):
    response = await API_CLIENT.staticimage('wanted',image_url)
    embed = discord.Embed(title='DAGPI image')
    embed.set_image(url=response)
    await ctx.send(embed=embed)  

6) Handling Exceptions

---

- InvalidOption

This exception is raised when the feature chose ie. wanted is not a valid feature from the available options.

- BadUrl

The api uses regex to validate urls. When an improper url is passed to the API this exception is raised

- ValueError

This is when the API returns a non 200 code ie means an error occurred. This exception throws the status code along with a message explaining the status code. The description of status codes can be found in the API docs.
