bacalhau-sdk 1.2.1

Compute over Data framework for public, transparent, and optionally verifiable computation using IPFS & Filecoin.

Bacalhau Python SDK :snake:

This is the official Python SDK for Bacalhau, named bacalhau-sdk. It is a high-level SDK that ships the client-side logic (e.g. signing requests) needed to query the endpoints. Please take a look at the examples for snippets to create, list and inspect jobs. Under the hood, this SDK uses bacalhau-apiclient (autogenerated via Swagger/OpenAPI) to interact with the API.

Please make sure to use this SDK library in your Python projects, instead of the lower level bacalhau-apiclient. The latter is listed as a dependency of this SDK and will be installed automatically when you follow the installation instructions below.

Features

• List, create and inspect Bacalhau jobs using Python objects :balloon:
• Use the production network, or set the following environment variables to target any Bacalhau network out there:
  • BACALHAU_API_HOST
  • BACALHAU_API_PORT
• Generate a key pair used to sign requests stored in the path specified by the BACALHAU_DIR env var (default: ~/.bacalhau)

Install

From PyPi:

$ pip install bacalhau-sdk

From source:

Clone the public repository:

$ git clone https://github.com/bacalhau-project/bacalhau/

Once you have a copy of the source, you can install it with:

$ cd python/
$ pip install .

Initialize

Likewise the Bacalhau CLI, this SDK uses a key pair to be stored in BACALHAU_DIR used for signing requests. If a key pair is not found there, it will create one for you.

Example Use

Let's submit a Hello World job and then fetch its output data's CID. We start by importing this sdk, namely bacalhau_sdk, used to create and submit a job create request. Then we import bacalhau_apiclient (installed automatically with this sdk), it provides various object models that compose a job create request. These are used to populate a simple python dictionary that will be passed over to the submit util method.

import pprint

from bacalhau_sdk.api import submit
from bacalhau_sdk.config import get_client_id
from bacalhau_apiclient.models.storage_spec import StorageSpec
from bacalhau_apiclient.models.spec import Spec
from bacalhau_apiclient.models.job_spec_language import JobSpecLanguage
from bacalhau_apiclient.models.job_spec_docker import JobSpecDocker
from bacalhau_apiclient.models.publisher_spec import PublisherSpec
from bacalhau_apiclient.models.deal import Deal


data = dict(
    APIVersion='V1beta1',
    ClientID=get_client_id(),
    Spec=Spec(
        engine="Docker",
        publisher_spec=PublisherSpec(type="IPFS"),
        docker=JobSpecDocker(
            image="ubuntu",
            entrypoint=["echo", "Hello World!"],
        ),
        language=JobSpecLanguage(job_context=None),
        wasm=None,
        resources=None,
        timeout=1800,
        outputs=[
            StorageSpec(
                storage_source="IPFS",
                name="outputs",
                path="/outputs",
            )
        ],
        deal=Deal(concurrency=1),
        do_not_track=False,
    ),
)

pprint.pprint(submit(data))

The script above prints the following object, the job.metadata.id value is our newly created job id!

{'job': {'api_version': 'V1beta1',
         'metadata': {'client_id': 'bae9c3b2adfa04cc647a2457e8c0c605cef8ed93bdea5ac5f19f94219f722dfe',

                  'Docker': {'Entrypoint': ['echo', 'Hello World!'],

                               'StorageSource': 'IPFS',
                               'path': '/outputs'}]},
         'status': {'JobState': {},
                    'Requester': {'RequesterNodeID': 'QmdZQ7ZbhnvWY1J12XYKGHApJ6aufKyLNSvf8jZBrBaAVL',

We can then use the results method to fetch, among other fields, the output data's CID.

from bacalhau_sdk.api import results

print(results(job_id="710a0bc2-81d1-4025-8f80-5327ca3ce170"))

The line above prints the following dictionary:

{'results': [{'data': {'cid': 'QmYEqqNDdDrsRhPRShKHzsnZwBq3F59Ti3kQmv9En4i5Sw',
                       'metadata': None,
                       'name': 'job-710a0bc2-81d1-4025-8f80-5327ca3ce170-shard-0-host-QmYgxZiySj3MRkwLSL4X2MF5F9f2PMhAE3LV49XkfNL1o3',
                       'path': None,
                       'source_path': None,
                       'storage_source': 'IPFS',
                       'url': None},
              'node_id': 'QmYgxZiySj3MRkwLSL4X2MF5F9f2PMhAE3LV49XkfNL1o3',
              'shard_index': None}]}

Congrats, that was a good start! 🎈 Please find more code snippets in the examples folder (more examples published in the near future).

Devstack

You can set the environment variables BACALHAU_API_HOST and BACALHAU_API_PORT to point this SDK to your Bacalhau API (e.g. local devstack).

Developers guide

We use Poetry to manage this package, take a look at their official docs to install it. Note, all targets in the Makefile use poetry as well!

To develop this SDK locally, create a dedicated poetry virtual environment and install the root package (i.e. bacalhau_sdk) and its dependencies:

$ poetry install --no-interaction --with test,dev -vvv
Creating virtualenv bacalhau-sdk-9mIcLX8U-py3.9 in /Users/enricorotundo/Library/Caches/pypoetry/virtualenvs
Using virtualenv: /Users/enricorotundo/Library/Caches/pypoetry/virtualenvs/bacalhau-sdk-9mIcLX8U-py3.9
Installing dependencies from lock file
...

Note the line above installs the root package (i.e. bacalhau_sdk) in editable mode, that is, any change to its source code is reflected immediately without the need for re-packaging and re-installing it. Easy peasy!

Then install the pre-commit hooks and test it:

$ make install-pre-commit

$ make pre-commit
