vimeotools 0.0.1

Tools for Vimeo

vimeotools

These are Python Tools for Vimeo, using the Vimeo API and the official PyVimeo Python package.

beta!

This package is very much a beta version, it has no unit tests yet and is not well tested! Use it at your own risk!

about

This package is aimed at being more convenient than using the Vimeo API or PyVimeo directly: it provides the classes:

• VimeoConnection
• VimeoData
• VimeoVideo
• VimeoShowcase (album)
• VimeoFolder (project)

which invoke the API for you. So you don't have to worry about the intricacies of the data structure or the URIs to use for specific queries or actions.

These classes also store the data internally once they have retrieved them from Vimeo, so as to avoid unnecessary requests if data are queried multiple times. If an instance changes data, the internal data representation is updated accordingly.

It is of course possible to re-query (refresh) the data via the API.

You can also opt to create or set an object in live mode, so everytime a property is queried, the appropriate request is made on Vimeo first.

documentation

The (Sphinx) documentation is very crude (created with autodoc) currently and will be improved in subsequent versions.

History

0.0.1 (2023-07-07)

This is the first version. It provides the VimeoConnection, VimeoData, Video and VimeoShowcase and VimeoFolder classes.

The package is still very much in beta, as many of the possible methods of this classes are not implemented yet and other classes (e.g. for Groups or Portfolios) shall be implemented later. It is also not well tested at the moment. Use it at your own risk!
