Feedo Network Python SDK

The official Developer SDK for interacting with the Feedo Network.

Feedo is a decentralized network consisting of Search, Consensus, and Storage nodes. This SDK provides a unified, asynchronous interface to interact with all layers of the Feedo Network.

Features

• Dynamic Node Routing: The SDK automatically pings seed nodes and routes your requests to the fastest available node. If a node goes offline, the router instantly falls back to another healthy node.
• Fully Asynchronous: Built on top of httpx and asyncio for maximum performance in AI agents and backend applications.
• Search Module: Execute semantic vector queries, index new documents, and manage deployed websites.
• Consensus Module: Register Decentralized Identifiers (DIDs), resolve .feedo names, and manage network grants.
• Storage Module: Upload, download, and subscribe to data streams on the decentralized storage layer.

Installation

pip install feedo-sdk

Initialization

The SDK requires an event loop since it is entirely async. You do not need to specify URLs for the nodes; the SDK auto-discovers the fastest connection.

import asyncio
from feedo import FeedoClient

async def main():
    client = FeedoClient()
    # Your code here

asyncio.run(main())

(Optional) Custom seed nodes for private clusters:

client = FeedoClient(
    search_seeds=["https://my-search.node"],
    consensus_seeds=["https://my-consensus.node"],
    storage_seeds=["https://my-storage.node"]
)

Search Module (client.search)

The Search module handles semantic queries and document vectorization.

query(query_text: str, limit: int = 10)

Perform a semantic search across the network.

results = await client.search.query("DeFi protocols", limit=5)
print(results)

index_document(content: str, metadata: dict = None)

Index a raw document into the vector database.

await client.search.index_document("Bitcoin is decentralized.", {"source": "wiki"})

deploy_proxy(directory_path: str, domain: str)

Publish a local directory to the network under a specific domain.

await client.search.deploy_proxy("/path/to/build", "my-app.feedo")

unpin(cid: str)

Remove a pinned deployment from the proxy.

await client.search.unpin("Qm...")

get_stats()

Retrieve network statistics.

stats = await client.search.get_stats()

Consensus Module (client.consensus)

The Consensus module manages identity (DIDs), naming (.feedo domains), and grants.

resolve_name(name: str)

Resolve a .feedo domain to its underlying CID (IPFS hash).

info = await client.consensus.resolve_name("my-app.feedo")
print(info['cid'])

register_did(pubkey_hex: str, signature_hex: str)

Register a new Decentralized Identifier.

await client.consensus.register_did("0xabc...", "0xdef...")

get_did_balance(did: str)

Check the token balance of a specific DID.

balance = await client.consensus.get_did_balance("did:feedo:0xabc...")

register_name(name: str, did: str, cid: str, signature_hex: str)

Register a new .feedo domain.

await client.consensus.register_name("my-app", "did:feedo:...", "Qm...", "0x...")

update_name_cid(name: str, new_cid: str, signature_hex: str)

Update the CID of an existing name.

await client.consensus.update_name_cid("my-app", "QmNew...", "0x...")

Storage Module (client.storage)

The Storage module acts as a decentralized file system.

upload_file(file_path: str, filename: str = "file")

Upload a local file to the network.

response = await client.storage.upload_file("./image.png")
print("Hash:", response['hash'])

download_file(hash_id: str) -> bytes

Download a file from the network by its hash.

raw_data = await client.storage.download_file("Qm...")
with open("downloaded.png", "wb") as f:
    f.write(raw_data)

ingest_json(payload: dict)

Ingest structured JSON data directly into storage.

await client.storage.ingest_json({"user": "alice", "action": "post"})

get_recent_files()

Get a list of recently uploaded files.

recent = await client.storage.get_recent_files()

Error Handling

The SDK handles node failover automatically via the NodeRouter. However, if all seed nodes are unreachable, or if a specific network validation error occurs, the SDK will raise an exception. It is highly recommended to wrap network calls in try/except blocks:

try:
    results = await client.search.query("DeFi protocols")
except Exception as e:
    print(f"Feedo Network Error: {e}")

Response Structures

All responses are returned as native Python dictionaries matching the JSON schema of the Feedo Network. For example, a search result typically contains:

• id: Unique document identifier
• score: Semantic similarity score
• metadata: Associated metadata dictionary
• content: The raw text content
