eazydraw 1.0.1

Python client and MCP server for the EazyDraw Automation API

EazyDraw Automation API — Python client

Python wrapper around the HTTP API documented in ../../API.md and ../../spec/openapi.yaml. A developer tool, not (yet) a shipped SDK.

Packaged as the eazydraw module:

eazydraw/
  __init__.py    public exports (EazyDraw, EazyDrawError, models)
  client.py      the EazyDraw HTTP client (returns raw dicts)
  models.py      pydantic v2 models mirroring spec/openapi.yaml
eazydraw_api.py  backward-compat shim (re-exports from eazydraw)

Setup

pip install -r requirements.txt        # requests + pydantic (+ dev: pyyaml, openapi-spec-validator)
# or, to install the package itself (editable):  pip install -e .
cp config.example.py config.py
# edit config.py and paste your bearer token from API Settings -> Reveal

Python 3.10+. config.py is gitignored so your real token stays on your machine; config.example.py is the committed placeholder.

Quickstart

from eazydraw import EazyDraw          # (the old `from eazydraw_api import EazyDraw` still works)

# Paste your bearer token from API Settings -> Reveal
ed = EazyDraw(token="7b3f...")

ed.status()
# {'status': 'OK', 'version': '12.3.6', 'build': '51059'}

# Open a drawing, capture its uuid
d = ed.open_drawing("~/Documents/sketch.ezdjson")
print(d["uuid"], "newly opened" if ed.last_response.status_code == 201 else "already open")

# Walk down to graphics on the active layer
layers = ed.layers(d["uuid"])
gs = ed.layer_graphics(d["uuid"], layers[0]["uuid"])
print(len(gs), "graphics on layer 0")

# Place a library element into the drawing
libs = ed.libraries()
math_lib = next(l for l in libs if l["DisplayName"] == "Math")
els = ed.library_elements(math_lib["uuid"])
graphic_el = next(e for e in els if e["elementType"] == "graphic")
placed = ed.use_library_element(
    d["uuid"], layers[0]["uuid"], math_lib["uuid"], graphic_el["uuid"]
)
print("Placed", placed["class"], "as", placed["graphicUUID"])

# Export the drawing as a PNG to disk
ed.export_drawing(d["uuid"], "png", save_to="/tmp/sketch.png")

# Close it
ed.close_drawing(d["uuid"])

Typed models (optional)

The client returns raw dicts. For validation / IDE support, parse them with the pydantic models in eazydraw.models (these mirror spec/openapi.yaml):

from eazydraw import EazyDraw, Graphic, Text

ed = EazyDraw(token="7b3f...")
g = Graphic.model_validate(ed.graphic(D, L, G))
print(g.graphic_uuid, g.hidden_bounds.width, g.is_group)   # snake_case fields

# round-trips back to wire form (camelCase / PascalCase keys)
g.model_dump(by_alias=True)

Field names are snake_case with the wire keys as aliases; unknown server keys are preserved (extra="allow"), so a newer server field won't break parsing.

Error handling

Non-2xx responses raise EazyDrawError(status_code, message, body):

from eazydraw import EazyDraw, EazyDrawError

ed = EazyDraw(token="wrong-token")
try:
    ed.status()
except EazyDrawError as exc:
    print(exc.status_code, exc.message)  # 401 "Missing or invalid bearer token"

Status codes

Every method calls self.last_response = resp, so when the server's status code carries semantic meaning (201 vs 200 on POST, etc.), inspect it afterward:

d = ed.open_drawing(path)
already_open = (ed.last_response.status_code == 200)

Conventions

• Methods take UUIDs as positional strings, in path order: ed.layer(D, L), ed.layer_graphics(D, L), etc.
• Recursive group-traversal methods take a variadic list of UUIDs in chain order: ed.group_graphics(D, L, G1, G2, G3) reads as "drilling down".
• export_* methods take fmt as a keyword argument (so the call site stays readable when there's a long UUID chain) and accept an optional save_to path; if given, bytes are written to that path and the path is returned. Otherwise raw bytes are returned.
• Collection endpoints unwrap the envelope: ed.drawings() returns the list directly, not {"drawings": [...]}.
• client.py is single-class; as we add API endpoints we add a method — no inheritance, no abstractions. models.py is plain pydantic data classes.

Not shipped

This lives in the repo for convenience but is not part of the EazyDraw app bundle. A versioned, published Python SDK is a future product decision; the eazydraw package here is the working basis for it (and for the semantic resolver + MCP server layers to come).
