seedr 1.3.0

Unofficial API wrapper for seedr.cc .

Seedr API

An unofficial API wrapper for seedr.cc. This library provides a simple and convenient way to interact with the Seedr API from your Python applications with modern features like automatic token refresh, device authentication, and typed response models.

Installation

You can install the package using pip:

pip install seedr

Features

• 🔐 Multiple authentication methods (email/password, token, device code)

• 🔄 Automatic token refresh on expiration

• 📦 Typed response models for better code completion

• 🎯 Clean, modern Python API

• ✅ Full backward compatibility with existing code

Usage

Basic Authentication

Create an instance of the SeedrAPI class using your email and password, or an existing access token:

from seedr import SeedrAPI



# Authenticate with email and password

seedr = SeedrAPI(email='[e-mail]', password='your_password')



# Or, authenticate with an access token

seedr = SeedrAPI(token='your_access_token')



# With both access and refresh tokens for auto-refresh

seedr = SeedrAPI(token='access_token', refresh_token='refresh_token')

Device Authentication

For device-based authentication (useful for apps running on limited input devices):

from seedr import SeedrAPI



# Initialize without credentials

seedr = SeedrAPI.__new__(SeedrAPI)

seedr.__init__.__defaults__ = (None, None, None, None)



# Get device code

user_code = seedr.get_device_code()

print(f"Go to seedr.cc and enter code: {user_code}")



# Wait for user to authorize, then get token

token = seedr.get_token(seedr.devc)

print(f"Access token: {token}")

Token Refresh

Set up automatic token refresh callback:

def on_token_refreshed(access_token, refresh_token):

    print(f"Token refreshed! Save these tokens:")

    print(f"Access: {access_token}")

    print(f"Refresh: {refresh_token}")

    # Save tokens to database/file



seedr = SeedrAPI(email='[e-mail]', password='password')

seedr.on_token_refresh = on_token_refreshed

Get Drive Information

Get information about your account with typed response:

# Get root folder contents as typed object

folder = seedr.get_folder_contents()

print(f"Space used: {folder.space_used} / {folder.space_max}")

print(f"Folders: {len(folder.folders)}")

print(f"Files: {len(folder.files)}")

print(f"Active torrents: {len(folder.torrents)}")



# Access nested objects

for file in folder.files:

    print(f"File: {file.name}, Size: {file.size}, Video: {file.play_video}")



# Legacy method (returns dict)

drive_info = seedr.get_drive()

print(drive_info)

Get Folder Contents

Get the contents of a specific folder:

# Modern method with typed response

folder = seedr.get_folder_contents(folder_id=123)

for subfolder in folder.folders:

    print(f"Folder: {subfolder.name} ({subfolder.size} bytes)")



# Legacy method (returns dict)

folder_dict = seedr.get_folder(folder_id=123)

Get File Information

Get information about a specific file, including download URL:

# Modern method with typed response

file_details = seedr.get_file_details(folder_file_id=456)

print(f"Download URL: {file_details.url}")

print(f"File name: {file_details.name}")



# Legacy method (returns dict)

file_info = seedr.get_file(folder_file_id=456)

print(file_info['url'])

Add a Torrent

Add a torrent using a magnet link or direct .torrent file URL:

# Add magnet link

result = seedr.add_torrent('magnet:?xt=urn:btih:...')

print(result)



# Or use the new method name

result = seedr.add_magnet('magnet:?xt=urn:btih:...')

Delete Operations

Delete files, folders, or torrents:

# Delete a file

seedr.delete_file(file_id=123)



# Delete a folder

seedr.delete_folder(folder_id=456)



# Delete a torrent

seedr.delete_torrent(torrent_id=789)

Create Archive

Create a downloadable archive from a folder:

archive = seedr.create_archive(folder_id=123)

print(f"Archive URL: {archive.archive_url}")

print(f"Archive ID: {archive.archive_id}")

Response Models

The library provides typed response models for better code completion and type safety:

• SeedrFolderResponse - Complete folder information with nested objects

• SeedrTorrent - Torrent metadata (id, name, size, hash, progress)

• SeedrFolder - Folder metadata (id, name, fullname, size)

• SeedrFile - File metadata (name, size, hash, folder_id, play_video)

• SeedrFileDetails - File details with download URL

• SeedrArchiveResponse - Archive creation result with URL

# Example: Iterate through all content

folder = seedr.get_folder_contents()



# Access torrents

for torrent in folder.torrents:

    print(f"Torrent: {torrent.name}, Progress: {torrent.progress}")



# Access folders

for subfolder in folder.folders:

    print(f"Folder: {subfolder.name}, ID: {subfolder.id}")



# Access files

for file in folder.files:

    print(f"File: {file.name}, Size: {file.size}")

Error Handling

The library raises specific exceptions for different types of errors:

• InvalidLogin: Raised for incorrect username or password.

• InvalidToken: Raised for an invalid or expired access token.

• LoginRequired: Raised when no authentication credentials are provided.

• TokenExpired: Raised when the access token has expired.

You can handle these exceptions using a try...except block:

from seedr import SeedrAPI

from seedr.errors import InvalidLogin, InvalidToken



try:

    seedr = SeedrAPI(email='[e-mail]', password='wrong_password')

except InvalidLogin as e:

    print(f"Invalid login credentials: {e}")



try:

    folder = seedr.get_folder_contents()

except InvalidToken:

    print("Token expired, please re-authenticate")

Migration Guide

If you're using the old API, your code will continue to work without changes. However, you can take advantage of new features:

Old way (still works):

seedr = SeedrAPI(email='email', password='pass')

drive = seedr.get_drive()  # Returns dict

print(drive['space_used'])

New way (recommended):

seedr = SeedrAPI(email='email', password='pass')

folder = seedr.get_folder_contents()  # Returns typed object

print(folder.space_used)  # Better code completion

New features available:

# Token refresh callback

seedr.on_token_refresh = lambda access, refresh: save_tokens(access, refresh)



# Device authentication

user_code = seedr.get_device_code()

token = seedr.get_token(seedr.devc)



# Create archives

archive = seedr.create_archive(folder_id=123)



# Delete torrents

seedr.delete_torrent(torrent_id=456)

Error Handling

The library raises specific exceptions for different types of errors:

• InvalidLogin: Raised for incorrect username or password.

• InvalidToken: Raised for an invalid or expired access token.

• LoginRequired: Raised when no authentication credentials are provided.

You can handle these exceptions using a try...except block:

from seedr.errors import InvalidLogin



try:

    seedr = SeedrAPI(email='[e-mail]', password='wrong_password')

except InvalidLogin:

    print("Invalid login credentials.")
