jules-api 1.0.1

Official Python client for the Jules API

Jules API Python Client

Apology: We apologize for mistakenly presenting this library as official in earlier versions. This is an unofficial library.

Unofficial Python client library for the Jules API.

Installation

pip install jules-api

Usage

from jules_api import JulesClient
from jules_api import CreateSessionRequest, SourceContext, GithubRepoContext, SendMessageRequest

# Initialize the client with your API key
client = JulesClient(api_key="YOUR_API_KEY_HERE")

# List available sources
sources_response = client.list_sources()
print("Available sources:")
for source in sources_response.sources:
    print(f"- {source.id}: {source.name}")
    if source.github_repo:
        print(f"  GitHub: {source.github_repo.owner}/{source.github_repo.repo}")

if not sources_response.sources:
    print("No sources found. Please connect a GitHub repository in the Jules web app first.")
    exit(1)

# Create a new session
first_source = sources_response.sources[0]
session_request = CreateSessionRequest(
    prompt="Create a simple web app that displays 'Hello from Jules!'",
    source_context=SourceContext(
        source=first_source.name,
        github_repo_context=GithubRepoContext(starting_branch="main")
    ),
    title="Hello World App Session"
)

session = client.create_session(session_request)
print(f"Created session: {session.id}")
print(f"Title: {session.title}")
print(f"Prompt: {session.prompt}")

# Send a message to the agent
message_request = SendMessageRequest(
    prompt="Please add some styling to make it look more attractive."
)
client.send_message(session.id, message_request)
print("Message sent to the agent!")

# List activities (optional)
activities_response = client.list_activities(session.id, page_size=10)
print(f"\nFound {len(activities_response.activities)} activities:")
for activity in activities_response.activities:
    content = activity.content or "No content"
    if len(content) > 100:
        content = content[:100] + "..."
    print(f"- {activity.type}: {content}")

Alternative Client Creation

You can also use the convenience function:

from jules_api import create_client

client = create_client("YOUR_API_KEY_HERE")

Models

Request/Response Models

• CreateSessionRequest: Used to create new sessions
• SendMessageRequest: Used to send messages to agents
• ListSourcesResponse: Response from listing sources
• ListSessionsResponse: Response from listing sessions
• ListActivitiesResponse: Response from listing activities
• Session: Session information
• Source: Source information
• Activity: Activity information

Data Models

• SourceContext: Context for session sources
• GithubRepoContext: Additional context for GitHub repositories
• GithubRepo: GitHub repository information

All models use Pydantic for validation and type hints.

Authentication

All API requests require authentication using your Jules API key. Get your API key from the Settings page in the Jules web app. The client automatically includes the key in the X-Goog-Api-Key header for all requests.

Important: Keep your API keys secure. Never commit them to version control or expose them in client-side code.

Set your API key as an environment variable:

export JULES_API_KEY=your_api_key_here

Error Handling

The client raises requests.HTTPError exceptions for HTTP errors. Always wrap API calls in try-except blocks:

from requests.exceptions import HTTPError

try:
    session = client.create_session(request)
    print("Success:", session)
except HTTPError as e:
    print(f"HTTP Error: {e}")
    print(f"Status Code: {e.response.status_code}")
    print(f"Response: {e.response.text}")

Type Hints

This library uses modern Python type hints throughout. Your IDE should provide excellent autocomplete and type checking support.
