Client for Lychee, written in Python.
Project description
pychee
Client for Lychee, written in Python.
Lychee is a photo management system I've been using for years. I had the idea to make a « Lychee filesystem » with FUSE, so I needed an API client.
Installation
python3 -m pip install pychee
Notes
My reference is this documentation.
The API is partially implemented and focused on photo management, i.e. only Albums
, Photo
, Frame
, Sharing
and Settings::setLogin
. Users can do whatever they want with their albums and photos and change their password.
Disclaimer : I usually suck at coding, so use with caution and at your own risks. Tested with Lychee v4.3.4. The code probably won't be retrocompatible and should just work with the latest version.
Example usage
A sample of common API calls :
#!/usr/bin/env python
# coding=utf-8
from pychee import pychee
# Initialize instance
client = pychee.LycheeClient('https://pic.chosto.me')
# Login
client.login('login', 'password')
# Create a new album
album_name = 'test_name'
album_id = client.add_album(album_name)
# Add a photo in the created album
path_to_your_photo = '/your/path/photo.jpg'
with open(path_to_your_photo, 'rb') as f:
photo_id = client.add_photo(f, 'photo.jpg', album_id)
# Set uploaded photo public
client.set_photo_public(photo_id)
# Set licence of uploaded photo
client.set_photo_license(photo_id, 'CC0')
# Download an archive of the created album
output_path = '/tmp/photos.zip'
with(open(output_path, 'wb')) as f:
f.write(client.get_albums_archive([id]))
# Logout
client.logout()
