cloudconvert-python

This is the official Python SDK v2 for the CloudConvert API v2. For API v1, please use v1 branch of this repository.

Build Status

Installation

 pip install cloudconvert

Creating API Client

  import cloudconvert
 
  cloudconvert.configure(api_key = 'API_KEY', sandbox = False)

Or set the environment variable CLOUDCONVERT_API_KEY and use:

  import cloudconvert
 
  cloudconvert.default()

Creating Jobs

 import cloudconvert

 cloudconvert.configure(api_key = 'API_KEY')

 cloudconvert.Job.create(payload={
     "tasks": {
         'import-my-file': {
              'operation': 'import/url',
              'url': 'https://my-url'
         },
         'convert-my-file': {
             'operation': 'convert',
             'input': 'import-my-file',
             'output_format': 'pdf',
             'some_other_option': 'value'
         },
         'export-my-file': {
             'operation': 'export/url',
             'input': 'convert-my-file'
         }
     }
 })

Downloading Files

CloudConvert can generate public URLs for using export/url tasks. You can use these URLs to download output files.

exported_url_task_id = "84e872fc-d823-4363-baab-eade2e05ee54"
res = cloudconvert.Task.wait(id=exported_url_task_id) # Wait for job completion
file = res.get("result").get("files")[0]
res = cloudconvert.download(filename=file['filename'], url=file['url'])
print(res)

Uploading Files

Uploads to CloudConvert are done via import/upload tasks (see the docs). This SDK offers a convenient upload method:

job = cloudconvert.Job.create(payload={
    'tasks': {
        'upload-my-file': {
            'operation': 'import/upload'
        }
    }
})

upload_task_id = job['tasks'][0]['id']

upload_task = cloudconvert.Task.find(id=upload_task_id)
res = cloudconvert.Task.upload(file_name='path/to/sample.pdf', task=upload_task)

res = cloudconvert.Task.find(id=upload_task_id)

Webhook Signing

The node SDK allows to verify webhook requests received from CloudConvert.

payloadString = '...'; # The JSON string from the raw request body.
signature = '...'; # The value of the "CloudConvert-Signature" header.
signingSecret = '...'; # You can find it in your webhook settings.

isValid = cloudconvert.Webhook.verify(payloadString, signature, signingSecret); # returns true or false

Unit Tests
