Example:

# From URL
response = client.create_subtitle(
    video_url="https://example.com/video.mp4",
    language="en",
    font_name="Montserrat"
)

# From file
with open("video.mp4", "rb") as f:
    response = client.create_subtitle(
        video_file=f,
        language="tr",
        font_size=120
    )

get_transactions()

Get all subtitle transactions.

response = client.get_transactions()

Returns: Dict[str, Any] with list of transactions

get_transaction(transaction_id: str)

Get a specific transaction by ID.

response = client.get_transaction("transaction-id")

Returns: Dict[str, Any] with transaction details

get_billing_summary()

Get billing summary and usage information.

summary = client.get_billing_summary()

Returns: Dict[str, Any] with billing information

wait_for_transaction()

Wait for a transaction to complete.

transaction = client.wait_for_transaction(
    transaction_id: str,
    interval: int = 2000,  # milliseconds
    timeout: int = 300000,  # milliseconds (5 minutes)
    on_progress: Optional[Callable[[Dict[str, Any]], None]] = None
)

Returns: Dict[str, Any] with completed transaction

Example:

def on_progress(transaction):
    print(f"Status: {transaction['status']}")

transaction = client.wait_for_transaction(
    transaction_id,
    interval=2000,
    timeout=60000,
    on_progress=on_progress
)

Error Handling

The client raises AutoSubtitleError for API errors:

from autosubtitle import AutoSubtitleClient, AutoSubtitleError

try:
    response = client.create_subtitle(video_url="invalid-url")
except AutoSubtitleError as e:
    print(f"Error: {e.message}")
    print(f"Status: {e.status}")
    print(f"Code: {e.code}")

Examples

Complete Workflow

from autosubtitle import AutoSubtitleClient

client = AutoSubtitleClient(api_key="your-api-key")

# Create subtitle job
response = client.create_subtitle(
    video_url="https://example.com/video.mp4",
    language="en",
    font_name="Montserrat",
    font_size=100,
    position="bottom",
    font_color="#FFFFFF",
    highlight_color="#800080"
)

transaction_id = response["transaction"]["id"]

# Wait for completion
def on_progress(transaction):
    print(f"Processing... Status: {transaction['status']}")

transaction = client.wait_for_transaction(
    transaction_id,
    on_progress=on_progress
)

if transaction["status"] == "completed":
    print(f"Result video: {transaction['result_video_url']}")
    print(f"Transcription: {transaction['transcription']}")

Get Transaction History

response = client.get_transactions()

for transaction in response["projects"]:
    print(f"ID: {transaction['id']}")
    print(f"Status: {transaction['status']}")
    print(f"Created: {transaction['created_at']}")
    print("---")

Get Billing Information

summary = client.get_billing_summary()

print(f"Plan: {summary['plan']['name']}")
print(f"Usage: {summary['usage']['used']}/{summary['usage']['limit']}")
print(f"Reset Date: {summary['usage']['resetDate']}")
