Full SDK & CLI documentation: docs.meshive.ai/sdk-cli

Authentication

The SDK and CLI authenticate with a Meshive API Key (READ scope). Issue one from the console.

The easiest way is meshive login — it verifies the key and stores it (file mode 0600) under ~/.meshive/credentials.json, so later commands need no flags or env vars:

meshive login                 # prompts for the key (hidden input)
meshive me                    # now works with no --api-key
meshive logout                # removes the saved credentials

Alternatively, provide the key explicitly. Resolution order is --api-key flag › MESHIVE_API_KEY env › meshive login file:

export MESHIVE_API_KEY=meshive_xxxxxxxx
# or per-command: meshive me --api-key meshive_xxxxxxxx

By default requests go to the production API. To target the dev endpoint, override the base URL (same precedence: flag › env › login file › prod default) — no code change needed:

export MESHIVE_BASE_URL=https://api.dev.meshive.ai
# or remember it at login time:
meshive login --base-url https://api.dev.meshive.ai

The dev endpoint needs a dev-issued key — pair --base-url/MESHIVE_BASE_URL with the matching key. The config directory can be relocated via MESHIVE_CONFIG_DIR.

CLI

Everything is read-only. meshive --help lists the commands; meshive <command> --help shows its filters.

meshive --version
meshive me                     # current API key's owner

Exit codes: 0 success, 1 API or network error, 2 usage error (unknown status, bad date, out-of-range --limit, …), 130 interrupted.

IDs vs names

List output shows two columns:

  • ID — the canonical identifier (namespace_name for workspaces, pod_name for pods, the volume name for storages, numeric IDs for templates/servings, task_… for tasks, asset_… for assets). This is what you pass to the singular commands. It is unique and stable.
  • NAME — the display alias you set (workspace_name / user_alias / model name). It is a label, not a key: it is not guaranteed unique and can change. Use --name to filter by it, but address resources by their ID.

Sizes and rates

RAM, storage and VRAM are shown in GB (the same conversion the console uses); usage rates in percent, with n/a when a measurement is unavailable; network throughput in Mbps.

SDK

from meshive import Meshive

with Meshive() as client:               # reads MESHIVE_API_KEY / MESHIVE_BASE_URL
    me = client.me()
    print(me.email, me.user_role)

    for ws in client.list_workspaces():
        print(ws.namespace_name, ws.status)
    detail = client.get_workspace("my-workspace")
    print(detail.price_per_hour, detail.gpus, [r.type for r in detail.resources])

    pods = client.list_pods("my-workspace")
    pod = client.get_pod(pods[0].pod_name, "my-workspace")
    print(pod.status, pod.raw)           # .raw holds the full payload (machine, template, ...)

    # block until a pod is up (polls every `interval` seconds)
    pod = client.wait_for_pod(pod.pod_name, "my-workspace", until="running", timeout=600)

    usage = client.get_pod_metrics(pod.pod_name, "my-workspace")
    print(usage.cpu_usage_rate, [g.vram_usage_rate for g in usage.gpus])

    for storage in client.list_storages("my-workspace"):
        print(storage.pv_name, storage.storage_type, storage.usage_rate)

    page = client.list_assets("my-workspace", asset_type="dataset")   # one page (20 by default)
    for asset in page:
        print(asset.asset_id, asset.name, asset.size_bytes, asset.storage_provider)
    print(page.total, page.pages)
    print(client.get_asset_storage("my-workspace").estimated_monthly_cost)

    # what can I rent right now?
    for gpu in client.list_gpus(rental_type="demand", min_vram=40):
        print(gpu.gpu_model, gpu.vram, gpu.price_per_hour, gpu.available_gpus)

    # account
    credit = client.get_credit()
    print(credit.paid_balance, credit.bonus_balance)
    for key in client.list_api_keys():
        print(key.prefix, key.last_used_at)   # prefixes only; the secret is never returned

    # host view: the machines you contribute to the network
    machines = client.list_machines()
    for m in machines:
        print(m.machine_id, m.status, m.gpu_count, m.gpu_model)
    machine = client.get_machine(machines[0].machine_id)
    print(machine.earning_hourly, machine.raw)   # .raw holds specs, state, podUses, ...
    print(client.get_earnings().accumulated_until_payout)

All methods (identical on AsyncMeshive, awaited):

Method Returns
me() WhoAmI
list_api_keys() list[ApiKey]
get_credit() / list_credit_history(start_date=, end_date=) Credit / list[CreditHistoryEntry]
list_workspaces() / get_workspace(workspace) list[Workspace] / WorkspaceDetail
list_members(workspace) list[Member]
list_pods(workspace) / get_pod(pod_name, workspace) / wait_for_pod(...) list[Pod] / Pod
get_pod_metrics(pod_name, workspace) PodMetrics
list_storages(workspace) / get_storage(storage_name, workspace) list[Storage] / Storage
list_gpus(rental_type=, min_vram=) list[GpuAvailability]
list_templates(workspace=None, app_type=) / get_template(template_id, workspace=None) list[Template] / Template
list_servings(workspace) / get_serving(serving_id) list[Serving] / Serving
list_tasks(workspace, status=, limit=, offset=) / get_task(task_id) list[Task] / Task
list_assets(workspace, asset_type=, status=, page=, page_size=) / get_asset(asset_id) AssetPage (iterable, .total, .pages) / Asset
get_asset_storage(workspace) AssetStorage
list_machines() / get_machine(machine_id) list[Machine] / Machine
get_machine_metrics(machine_id) MachineMetrics
get_earnings(start_date=, end_date=) Earnings

Dates accept datetime.date, datetime.datetime, or a "YYYY-MM-DD" string. Every model keeps the exact server payload on .raw, so nested or newly added fields are always reachable. Credit history entries carry the amount, method and date only; Stripe receipt links stay in the console.

Credentials can also be passed explicitly: Meshive(api_key="meshive_...", base_url="https://api.dev.meshive.ai").

Retries

Rate limits (429), gateway errors (5xx), and dropped connections are retried automatically — twice by default, with exponential backoff, honouring the server's Retry-After header. Other 4xx responses are never retried. Turn it off with Meshive(max_retries=0).

If Retry-After asks for more than 60 seconds, the SDK raises RateLimitError instead of blocking that long — sleeping through it is your call, via .retry_after.

Async

from meshive import AsyncMeshive

async with AsyncMeshive() as client:
    me = await client.me()
    pods = await client.list_pods("my-workspace")
    gpus = await client.list_gpus(min_vram=80)

Errors

All errors subclass meshive.MeshiveError:

  • ConfigurationError — missing API key
  • AuthenticationError (401), PermissionDeniedError (403), NotFoundError (404), RateLimitError (429, exposes .retry_after), and MeshiveAPIError for other HTTP errors (carry .status_code, .title, .message, .raw)
  • WaitTimeoutErrorwait_for_pod ran out of time (it is also a built-in TimeoutError). A pod that reaches error/terminated while waiting raises MeshiveError immediately rather than burning the full timeout.

Invalid arguments (a malformed date, limit out of range, an empty ID) raise ValueError before any request is sent. Transport failures (DNS, refused connections) surface as httpx exceptions once retries are exhausted. The package ships a py.typed marker, so mypy/pyright read its annotations.

API compatibility

Version 0.0.7 relies on the extended /v1/sdk read surface (workspace detail, storages, metrics, GPUs, API keys, credit, earnings, members, templates, servings, tasks, assets). Against an older API those calls return NotFoundError; the commands that existed in 0.0.6 keep working.
