oleanderhq-sdk 0.4.1

Python SDK for oleander: query lake, list and launch Spark jobs

oleander Python SDK

Use the oleander API from Python: run lake queries, list Spark jobs, and launch Spark jobs.

Install

pip install oleanderhq-sdk

Get your API key

Create an API key in oleander settings, or run oleander configure if you use the CLI. You can pass the key when creating the client or set the OLEANDER_API_KEY environment variable.

Quick start

import asyncio
from oleander_sdk import Oleander

async def main():
    oleander = Oleander()
    result = await oleander.list_spark_jobs()
    print(result.artifacts)

asyncio.run(main())

API

All methods are async. Use await when calling them.

Query (lake)

Run a SQL query against the oleander lake. The second parameter is optional; save defaults to False. Use save=True to persist results as a table.

from oleander_sdk import Oleander, QueryOptions

oleander = Oleander()
result = await oleander.query(
    "SELECT * FROM oleander.default.flowers LIMIT 10",
)
print(result.results.columns, result.results.rows)
print(result.row_count, result.execution_time)
if result.saved_table_name:
    print("Saved to:", result.saved_table_name)

List Spark jobs

List your Spark artifacts. Options: limit (default 20), offset (default 0).

from oleander_sdk import Oleander, ListSparkJobsOptions

oleander = Oleander()
result = await oleander.list_spark_jobs()
print(result.artifacts, result.has_more)

next_page = await oleander.list_spark_jobs(ListSparkJobsOptions(offset=20))

Launch Spark job

Submit a Spark job. Required: namespace, name, entrypoint. cluster defaults to "oleander". The legacy script_name argument is still accepted as an alias for entrypoint.

from oleander_sdk import Oleander, SparkJobSubmitOptions

oleander = Oleander()
result = await oleander.submit_spark_job(SparkJobSubmitOptions(
    namespace="my-namespace",
    name="my-job-name",
    entrypoint="my_script.py",
))
print("Run ID:", result.run_id)

To target an external cluster, set cluster and provide the cluster-specific properties that match the current API:

result = await oleander.submit_spark_job(SparkJobSubmitOptions(
    cluster="emr-prod",
    namespace="my-namespace",
    name="my-job-name",
    entrypoint="s3://bucket/jobs/main.py",
    args=["--date", "2026-03-11"],
    py_files="s3://bucket/deps.zip",
    packages=["org.example:my-lib:1.0.0"],
))

Wait for a run to finish

Submit and poll until the run completes. Optional: poll_interval_ms (default 10000), timeout_ms (default 600000).

from oleander_sdk import Oleander, SubmitSparkJobAndWaitOptions

oleander = Oleander()
result = await oleander.submit_spark_job_and_wait(SubmitSparkJobAndWaitOptions(
    namespace="my-namespace",
    name="my-job-name",
    entrypoint="my_script.py",
))
print(result.run_id, result.state)  # COMPLETE | FAIL | ABORT

Get run status

run = await oleander.get_run(run_id)
print(run.state, run.duration)

Get Spark cluster information

cluster = await oleander.get_spark_cluster("emr-prod")
print(cluster.type, cluster.properties)

Typed error handling

The SDK raises structured errors for HTTP failures:

• OleanderHttpError for any non-2xx response (status, method, path, url, body, api_error, api_details)
• RunNotFoundError (subclass of OleanderHttpError) when get_run(run_id) returns 404

from oleander_sdk import Oleander, OleanderHttpError, RunNotFoundError

try:
    await oleander.get_run(run_id)
except RunNotFoundError as err:
    print("Run is not visible yet:", err.run_id)
except OleanderHttpError as err:
    print(err.status, err.path, err.api_error or err.api_details)

Options

• Constructor: Oleander(api_key=..., base_url=...). Omit api_key to use OLEANDER_API_KEY. Set base_url to use a different endpoint (e.g. http://localhost:3000).
• Models: The package exports Pydantic models (e.g. OleanderOptions, SparkJobSubmitOptions) if you want to validate config or options yourself.
• Errors: The package exports OleanderHttpError and RunNotFoundError for structured error handling.
