Quick Start

Installation

pip install tflink

Upload a File

from tflink import TFLinkClient

# Create client and upload
client = TFLinkClient()
result = client.upload('document.pdf')

# Get download link
print(f"Download: {result.download_link}")

That's it! 🎉

Examples

Anonymous Upload

from tflink import TFLinkClient

client = TFLinkClient()
result = client.upload('document.pdf')

print(f"File: {result.file_name}")
print(f"Size: {result.size:,} bytes")
print(f"Link: {result.download_link}")

Authenticated Upload

from tflink import TFLinkClient

client = TFLinkClient(
    user_id='YOUR_USER_ID',
    auth_token='YOUR_AUTH_TOKEN'
)

result = client.upload('document.pdf')
print(f"Download: {result.download_link}")

Error Handling

from tflink import TFLinkClient
from tflink.exceptions import TFLinkError

client = TFLinkClient()

try:
    result = client.upload('document.pdf')
    print(f"Success: {result.download_link}")
except TFLinkError as e:
    print(f"Error: {e}")

Download Links

tflink provides two download link formats:

• download_link - Human-readable, perfect for sharing with users
• download_link_encoded - URL-safe, ideal for API integrations

result = client.upload('file.pdf')

# For users
print(result.download_link)
# https://d.tmpfile.link/public/2025-07-31/uuid/file.pdf

# For APIs
print(result.download_link_encoded)
# https://d.tmpfile.link/public%2F2025-07-31%2Fuuid%2Ffile.pdf

Both links point to the same file. Use download_link for most cases.
