dataerai-sdk 0.1.1b1

Python SDK for the Dataerai transfer daemon

Dataerai Python SDK

Python client for the Dataerai transfer daemon.
Supports authenticated uploads, downloads, and metadata operations. The daemon is started automatically if it is not already running.

Requirements

• Python ≥ 3.10
• The dataerai binary must be installed and on PATH (or pass binary_path explicitly)
• The user must be logged in via dataerai auth login before calling auth_status() / upload() / download()

Installation

pip install dataerai-sdk
# or, from source:
pip install -e sdk/python/

Quick start

from dataerai import DataeraiClient

with DataeraiClient(binary_path="/usr/local/bin/dataerai") as client:
    # Check auth
    status = client.auth_status()
    print(f"Logged in as {status.user_email}, token expires {status.expires_at}")

    # Create a project to own your data (also provisions its root collection)
    project = client.create_project("My dataset project", description="Demo")
    print(f"Created project {project.project_id}")

    # Upload a file into it
    result = client.upload(
        "/path/to/data.csv",
        title="My dataset",
        owner_type="project",
        owner_id=project.project_id,
        on_progress=lambda p: print(f"  {p.percent:.0f}%  {p.rate_mbps:.1f} MB/s"),
    )
    print(f"Uploaded  asset_id={result.asset_id}  content_id={result.content_id}")

    # Download it back
    dl = client.download(result.asset_id, dest_dir="/tmp/downloads")
    for f in dl.files:
        print(f"  {f.local_path}  ({f.size:,} bytes)")

    # Read / update metadata
    meta = client.get_metadata(result.asset_id)
    updated = client.set_metadata(result.asset_id, title="My dataset v2", tags=["csv", "demo"])

API reference

DataeraiClient(*, socket_path, binary_path, auto_start, start_timeout_s, request_timeout_s)

Parameter	Default	Description
socket_path	$DATAERAI_SOCKET or /run/user/<uid>/dataerai-transfer.sock	Unix socket path
binary_path	None	Path to the dataerai binary (required for auto_start)
auto_start	True	Spawn the daemon if the socket does not exist
start_timeout_s	10.0	Seconds to wait for the daemon socket to appear
request_timeout_s	30.0	Per-request timeout in seconds

Use as a context manager (with DataeraiClient(...) as client:) for automatic cleanup, or call client.connect() / client.close() manually.
