rixl-python 0.2.2

Python client for the RIXL API.

rixl-python

Python client for the RIXL API.

Install

pip install rixl-python

Requires Python 3.10+. microsoft-kiota-bundle is pulled in transitively (HTTP transport, serializers, request adapter).

Quick start

import asyncio
from kiota_abstractions.authentication.api_key_authentication_provider import (
    ApiKeyAuthenticationProvider, KeyLocation,
)
from kiota_http.httpx_request_adapter import HttpxRequestAdapter
from rixl_client import RixlClient


async def main():
    auth = ApiKeyAuthenticationProvider(
        api_key="YOUR_RIXL_API_KEY",
        parameter_name="X-API-Key",
        key_location=KeyLocation.Header,
    )
    adapter = HttpxRequestAdapter(auth)
    client = RixlClient(adapter)

    image = await client.images.by_image_id("PS5IMKoFLm").get()
    print(image.id, image.width, image.height)


asyncio.run(main())

Default base URL: https://api.rixl.com. Override with adapter.base_url = "...".

Authentication

API key:

from kiota_abstractions.authentication.api_key_authentication_provider import (
    ApiKeyAuthenticationProvider, KeyLocation,
)

auth = ApiKeyAuthenticationProvider(
    "YOUR_RIXL_API_KEY", "X-API-Key", KeyLocation.Header,
)

Bearer token: implement AccessTokenProvider, then wrap with BaseBearerTokenAuthenticationProvider from kiota_abstractions.authentication.base_bearer_token_authentication_provider.

Feeds

posts = await client.feeds.by_feed_id("FD4y3QB38S").get()
for post in posts.data:
    print(post.id)

Images

page = await client.images.get()
image = await client.images.by_image_id("PS5IMKoFLm").get()
await client.images.by_image_id("PS5IMKoFLm").delete()

Upload (init → PUT bytes → complete):

import httpx
from models.internal_images_handler.upload_init_request import UploadInitRequest
from models.internal_images_handler.complete_request import CompleteRequest

init_req = UploadInitRequest()
init_req.name = "photo.jpg"
init_req.format = "jpeg"
init_res = await client.images.upload.init.post(init_req)

async with httpx.AsyncClient() as c:
    await c.put(init_res.presigned_url, content=image_bytes,
                headers={"Content-Type": "image/jpeg"})

complete_req = CompleteRequest()
complete_req.image_id = init_res.image_id
complete_req.attached_to_video = False
image = await client.images.upload.complete.post(complete_req)

Videos

videos = await client.videos.get()
video = await client.videos.by_video_id("VI9VXQxWXQ").get()
tracks = await client.videos.by_video_id("VI9VXQxWXQ").subtitles.get()

Upload returns presigned URLs for both the video and a poster image:

from models.video_upload_init_request import VideoUploadInitRequest
from models.github_com_rixlhq_api_internal_videos_handler_upload.complete_request \
    import CompleteRequest as VideoCompleteRequest

init_req = VideoUploadInitRequest()
init_req.file_name = "clip.mp4"
init_req.image_format = "jpeg"
init_res = await client.videos.upload.init.post(init_req)
# PUT bytes to init_res.video_presigned_url and init_res.poster_presigned_url

complete_req = VideoCompleteRequest()
complete_req.video_id = init_res.video_id
video = await client.videos.upload.complete.post(complete_req)

Pagination

List endpoints take limit, offset, sort, order:

from kiota_abstractions.base_request_configuration import RequestConfiguration
from rixl_sdk.images.images_request_builder import ImagesRequestBuilder

limit, offset = 50, 0
while True:
    params = ImagesRequestBuilder.ImagesRequestBuilderGetQueryParameters(
        limit=limit, offset=offset,
    )
    page = await client.images.get(
        request_configuration=RequestConfiguration(query_parameters=params),
    )
    if offset + len(page.data) >= page.pagination.total:
        break
    offset += limit

Errors

from rixl_sdk.models.github_com_rixlhq_api_internal_errors.error_response import ErrorResponse

try:
    image = await client.images.by_image_id("PS5IMKoFLm").get()
except ErrorResponse as e:
    print(f"HTTP {e.code}: {e.error}")

Network failures raise httpx exceptions.
