This is a Python client for the Transloadit service, which is a cloud encoder for images, video, and other content that needs marshalling around the internet. Before you get started you'll want to enable API authentication.
The following example shows you how to import an image from somewhere on the internet and run it through one of your templates.
from transloadit.client import Client
AUTH_KEY = 'Your_Key_Here'
AUTH_SECRET = 'Your_Secret_Here'
client = Client(AUTH_KEY, AUTH_SECRET)
params = {
'steps': {
':original': {
'robot': '/http/import',
'url': 'http://example.com/some_image.jpg'
}
},
'template_id': 'your_template_id_here'
}
result = client.request(**params)
print result
The package depends on the json
module added in Python 2.7, but we fall
back to importing simplejson
if json
is not available. To make
python-transloadit
to work in Python 2.6 or older, install simplejson
:
$ pip install simplejson
