hyperscience saas client library

Hyperscience SaaS Client Library

With the Hyperscience SaaS client library, you can authenticate to SaaS instances of Hyperscience and make API requests.

Quickstart Guide

1. Install Hyperscience SaaS Client Library

Install the Hyperscience SAAS Client Library from PyPI:

pip install hyperscience-saas-client

To upgrade the package:

pip install hyperscience-saas-client --upgrade

2. Set Up API Credentials

Retrieve your API credentials from your Hyperscience SaaS instance. To learn more, see API Access for SaaS Instances.

3. Configure Authentication Parameters

To configure authentication, the ApiController uses a Configuration class. A configuration object contains:

• Authentication domain ("auth_server”)
• Hyperscience's domain to make the requests to ("hs_domain")
• Timeout for requests in seconds (optional) ("request_timeout")

By default, these values are used:

{
    "auth_server": "login.hyperscience.net",
    "hs_domain": "cloud.hyperscience.net",
    "request_timeout": 120 
}

You can set your Configuration object in one of the following three ways:

Passing a JSON object

from hyperscience import Configuration

config = '{ "auth_server": "login.hyperscience.net", "hs_domain": "cloud.hyperscience.net" }'
configuration = Configuration.from_json_string(config)

Full path to a JSON file containing the configuration

from hyperscience import Configuration

configuration = Configuration.from_file('/absolute/path/to/config.json')

Specifying the parameters

from hyperscience import Configuration

configuration = Configuration(hs_domain='cloud.hyperscience.net')

or

configuration = Configuration(hs_domain='cloud.hyperscience.net', auth_server='login.hyperscience.net')

or

configuration = Configuration(
    hs_domain='cloud.hyperscience.net', auth_server='login.hyperscience.net', request_timeout=60
)

4. Provide Credentials

There are two options for providing credentials:

a. Environment Variables (Recommended)

To use environment variables to store your credentials:

1. Put your client_id in an environment variable called HS_CLIENT_ID
2. Put the client_secret in an environment variable called HS_CLIENT_SECRET

To load them and pass them to ApiController, you can do it with:

from hyperscience import EnvironmentCredentialsProvider, Configuration, ApiController

credentials = EnvironmentCredentialsProvider()
configuration = Configuration('<hyperscience.domain>')
api_controller = ApiController(configuration, credentials)

b. Pass them via a CredentialsProvider object

If you prefer having credentials loaded from a different place instead of environment variables, you can create an instance of the CredentialsProvider class and pass it to ApiController:

from hyperscience import CredentialsProvider, Configuration, ApiController
credentials = CredentialsProvider('client_id', 'client_secret')
configuration = Configuration('<hyperscience.domain>')
api_controller = ApiController(configuration, credentials)

WARNING: Keeping credentials in code is a bad practice. CredentialsProvider is best used when loading credentials from secret stores.

5. Make a Test Call

Finally, ensure that your setup is correct by making a test call to GET submissions from your instance.

from hyperscience import ApiController, CredentialsProvider, Configuration

credentials = CredentialsProvider('<client_id>', '<client_secret>')
configuration = Configuration('<hyperscience.domain>')
api_controller = ApiController(configuration, credentials)

response = api_controller.get('/api/v5/submissions')

Using the ApiController

The ApiController allows users to interact with the Hyperscience API using easy-to-use wrapper methods. You can find Hyperscience’s API documentation here.

Supported HTTP Methods

GET, POST and PUT operations are supported by the ApiController.
Content (query params, encoded url parameters or files input) is accepted in the form of Dict[str, str] or List[Tuple[str, str]].
To support multiple parameters of the same type (e.g. 'file' for submitting multiple files), parameters should be passed as List[Tuple[str, str]].

Examples

Configuration and Setup

from hyperscience import ApiController, Configuration
from hyperscience.api import DataSupportedMediaType, PayloadSupportedMediaType

Create an ApiController instance

api_controller = ApiController(Configuration('cloud.hyperscience.net'))

GET Submissions

GET request with query params provided in dictionary

query_params = {'state': 'complete'}
res = api_controller.get('/api/v5/submissions', query_params)
print(res, res.content)

GET request with query params provided in List[Tuple] format

query_params = [('state', 'complete')]
res = api_controller.get('/api/v5/submissions', query_params)
print(res, res.content)

POST a New Submission using URL-Encoded Form.

POST request with WwwFormUrlEncoded content-type to submit files from remote servers with List[Tuple] (multiple identical keys, e.g. multiple files)

data = [
    ('file', 'https://www.dropbox.com/demo-long.pdf'),
    (
        'file',
        's3://hyperscience/bucket/form1.pdf',
    ),
    ('machine_only', True),
]
res = api_controller.post('/api/v5/submissions', data, DataSupportedMediaType.FORM_URL_ENCODED)
print(res, res.content)

POST request to submit files from remote servers with a dictionary (unique keys)

data = {
    'file': 'https://www.dropbox.com/demo-long.pdf',
    'machine_only': True,
}
res = api_controller.post('/api/v5/submissions', data, DataSupportedMediaType.FORM_URL_ENCODED)
print(res, res.content)

POST request to submit files from remote servers with a dictionary (unique keys)

data = {
    'file': 'https://www.dropbox.com/demo-long.pdf',
    'machine_only': True,
}
res = api_controller.post('/api/v5/submissions', data, DataSupportedMediaType.FORM_URL_ENCODED)
print(res, res.content)

POST a New Submission Using MultipartFormData

data = {'file': '/absolute/path/to/file.pdf', 'machine_only': True}
res = api_controller.post('/api/v5/submissions', data, DataSupportedMediaType.MULTIPART_FORM_DATA)
print(res, res.content)

    ('file', '/absolute/path/to/file.pdf'),
    ('file', '/absolute/path/to/file2.pdf'),
    ('machine_only', True),

    "single_document_per_page": True,
    "restrictions": [],
    "source_routing_tags": ["tag1", "tag2"],

Logging

The library implements HyperscienceLogging class to log messages related to the library.\ To set a different logging level, you can use the function HyperscienceLogging.set_hyperscience_logging_level() and choose from the following list of logging levels: CRITICAL, FATAL, ERROR, WARNING, INFO, DEBUG.
