vws-python

Python library for the Vuforia Web Services (VWS) API and the Vuforia Web Query API.

Installation

pip install vws-python

This is tested on Python 3.14+. Get in touch with adamdangoor@gmail.com if you would like to use this with another language.

Getting Started

"""Add a target to VWS and then query it."""

import os
import pathlib
import uuid

from vws import VWS, CloudRecoService

server_access_key = os.environ["VWS_SERVER_ACCESS_KEY"]
server_secret_key = os.environ["VWS_SERVER_SECRET_KEY"]
client_access_key = os.environ["VWS_CLIENT_ACCESS_KEY"]
client_secret_key = os.environ["VWS_CLIENT_SECRET_KEY"]

vws_client = VWS(
    server_access_key=server_access_key,
    server_secret_key=server_secret_key,
)

cloud_reco_client = CloudRecoService(
    client_access_key=client_access_key,
    client_secret_key=client_secret_key,
)

name = "my_image_name_" + uuid.uuid4().hex

image = pathlib.Path("high_quality_image.jpg")
with image.open(mode="rb") as my_image_file:
    target_id = vws_client.add_target(
        name=name,
        width=1,
        image=my_image_file,
        active_flag=True,
        application_metadata=None,
    )

vws_client.wait_for_target_processed(target_id=target_id)

with image.open(mode="rb") as my_image_file:
    matching_targets = cloud_reco_client.query(image=my_image_file)

assert matching_targets[0].target_id == target_id
