FastCloud

Up & Download files to any cloud storage.

Simplistic unified interface for uploading and downloading files to the cloud.

Supports

• Azure Blob Storage :white_check_mark:
• S3 Storages (Amazon, ...) :question:

Installation

Install via pypi with:

# to support all cloud providers
pip install fastcloud[full]
# only support azure blob storage
pip install fastcloud[azure]
# only support s3
pip install fastcloud[s3]

Or check-out the repository and work from there.

Usage

Init storage (Azure blob, S3 ...)

To directly up and download files to the cloud storage provider, you can use the following code snippets.

from fastcloud import AzureBlobStorage, S3Storage, create_cloud_storage
# Create container of your choice
cloud_store = AzureBlobStorage(connection_string="DefaultEndpointsProtocol=https;AccountName=...;AccountKey=...;EndpointSuffix=...")
cloud_store = S3Storage(access_key_id, secret_access_key, region_name)
# Or use the factory to be more flexible
cloud_store = create_cloud_storage(... your credentials ...)

Recommendation: Use environment variables to store the cloud storage access tokens / credentials.

Upload and download files

Option 1: Just with plain bytes io

# upload. Will create a file in the cloud with the name my_file
file_url = cloud_store.upload(file="path/to/file", file_name="my_file", folder="my_upload_dir")
# download. Will download the file and save it to the save-path
cloud_store.download(file_id, save_path="path/to/save")

Option 2: with media-toolkit. Media-toolkit provides easy to use classes for images, videos, audio files.

from media_toolkit import ImageFile
# upload
my_img = ImageFile.from_np_array(my_cv2_img)
file_url = cloud_store.upload(file=my_img)
# download and parse as media_file
media_file = cloud_store.download(file_url)
