makeshot.ai

The makeshot.ai library provides a streamlined interface for interacting with the makeshot.ai platform, enabling automated workflows and integration within your Python applications. This package simplifies access to core features and allows you to leverage the power of makeshot.ai programmatically.

Installation

To install the makeshot.ai package, use pip: bash pip install makeshot.ai

Basic Usage

Here are a few examples demonstrating common use cases for the makeshot.ai library:

1. Generating a Screenshot from a URL: python import makeshot.ai

api_key = "YOUR_API_KEY" # Replace with your actual API key

try: screenshot_url = makeshot.ai.capture_website(api_key, "https://www.example.com") print(f"Screenshot URL: {screenshot_url}") except makeshot.ai.exceptions.APIError as e: print(f"Error: {e}")

This example demonstrates how to programmatically capture a screenshot of a specified website. Replace "YOUR_API_KEY" with your actual API key obtained from the makeshot.ai platform. Error handling is included to manage potential API issues.

2. Converting a Web Page to PDF: python import makeshot.ai

api_key = "YOUR_API_KEY" # Replace with your actual API key

try: pdf_url = makeshot.ai.convert_to_pdf(api_key, "https://www.example.com") print(f"PDF URL: {pdf_url}") except makeshot.ai.exceptions.APIError as e: print(f"Error: {e}")

This snippet shows how to convert a webpage into a PDF document using the library. Again, remember to replace "YOUR_API_KEY" with your valid API key.

3. Checking Website Availability: python import makeshot.ai

api_key = "YOUR_API_KEY" # Replace with your actual API key

try: status = makeshot.ai.check_website_status(api_key, "https://www.example.com") print(f"Website Status: {status}") except makeshot.ai.exceptions.APIError as e: print(f"Error: {e}")

This example shows how to check the HTTP status code of a website. This can be useful for monitoring website uptime or verifying link validity.

4. Capturing a Full-Page Screenshot: python import makeshot.ai

api_key = "YOUR_API_KEY" # Replace with your actual API key

try: full_page_screenshot_url = makeshot.ai.capture_website(api_key, "https://www.example.com", full_page=True) print(f"Full Page Screenshot URL: {full_page_screenshot_url}") except makeshot.ai.exceptions.APIError as e: print(f"Error: {e}")

This demonstrates capturing a full-page screenshot, ensuring the entire webpage content is captured, not just the visible portion.

5. Specifying Custom Viewport Dimensions: python import makeshot.ai

api_key = "YOUR_API_KEY" # Replace with your actual API key

try: custom_screenshot_url = makeshot.ai.capture_website(api_key, "https://www.example.com", viewport_width=1280, viewport_height=720) print(f"Custom Viewport Screenshot URL: {custom_screenshot_url}") except makeshot.ai.exceptions.APIError as e: print(f"Error: {e}")

This shows how to capture a screenshot with custom viewport dimensions, allowing you to control the size and aspect ratio of the captured image.
