Installation
pip install dedalus-sdk
Usage
import os
from dedalus_sdk import Dedalus
client = Dedalus(
x_api_key=os.environ.get("DEDALUS_X_API_KEY"),
)
machine = client.machines.create(
autosleep="300s",
memory_mib=4096,
storage_gib=10,
vcpu=1,
idempotency_key="",
)
print(machine.machine_id)
The examples in the following sections assume a client configured as shown above.
See the API reference for every available operation.
Async
Every client has an Async counterpart (AsyncDedalus) exposing the same resource tree with await.
import asyncio
from dedalus_sdk import AsyncDedalus
async def main() -> None:
client = AsyncDedalus()
machine = await client.machines.create(
autosleep="300s",
memory_mib=4096,
storage_gib=10,
vcpu=1,
idempotency_key="",
)
asyncio.run(main())
Authentication
Pass credentials to the generated client constructor. Environment variables are read automatically when supported by the target runtime.
| Option | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
x_api_key |
string | provider |
- | Dedalus API key. Alternative to Bearer token. Defaults to DEDALUS_X_API_KEY. |
api_key |
string | provider |
- | Dedalus API key or short-lived delegated access token in Authorization: Bearer . Defaults to DEDALUS_API_KEY. |
Declared schemes:
ApiKeyAuthAPI key in headerx-api-keyBearerAuthbearer token
Errors
Non-success responses throw generated API errors. Error objects expose status, headers, response body, and request metadata where the target runtime supports it.
from dedalus_sdk import APIStatusError
try:
machine = client.machines.create(
autosleep="300s",
memory_mib=4096,
storage_gib=10,
vcpu=1,
idempotency_key="",
)
except APIStatusError as err:
print(err.status_code, err.message)
raise
Documented error statuses: 401, 403, 409, 429, 503, default.
Client Options
Configure the generated client by setting any of these options when you create it.
from dedalus_sdk import Dedalus
client = Dedalus(
timeout=60.0,
max_retries=2,
)
| Option | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
x_api_key |
str | None |
os.environ.get("DEDALUS_X_API_KEY") |
Dedalus API key. Alternative to Bearer token. |
api_key |
str | None |
os.environ.get("DEDALUS_API_KEY") |
Dedalus API key or short-lived delegated access token in Authorization: Bearer . |
base_url |
str | httpx.URL | None |
- | Override the default API base URL. |
timeout |
float | Timeout | None |
60.0 |
Maximum time in seconds to wait for a response before aborting a request. |
max_retries |
int |
2 |
Number of retries for temporary failures. |
default_headers |
Mapping[str, str] | None |
- | Headers sent with every request. |
default_query |
Mapping[str, object] | None |
- | Query parameters sent with every request. |
Retries and Timeouts
Generated clients support request timeouts and retry temporary failures such as network errors, 408, 409, 429, and 5xx responses. Retry delays honor Retry-After headers when present. Tune the retry and timeout client options shown above, or override them per request.
Pagination
List endpoints return paginated results you can iterate directly; the SDK fetches subsequent pages for you.
page = client.machines.list()
Helpers
- Use
client.with_raw_response.<resource>.<method>(...)to access the rawhttpx.Responseand parse it yourself. - Use
client.with_streaming_response.<resource>.<method>(...)to stream a response body without buffering it.
Logging
- Set the
DEDALUS_LOGenvironment variable toinfoordebugto enable HTTP logging. - Logs are emitted through the standard
loggingmodule under thededalus_sdklogger.
Requirements
- Python 3.8 or newer
