sirix-python-client

The home of the SirixDB python client

This package is currently in alpha stage.

The python client supports both sync and async programs.

The api docs can be found here. The api docs can also be built locally with the following:

cd docs
make html

Some example code:

from pysirix import sirix_sync, DBType, Insert
from httpx import Client

client = Client(base_url="http://localhost:9443")
sirix = sirix_sync("admin", "admin", client)

db = sirix.database("json-diff", DBType.JSON)
db.create()

resource = db.resource("json-resource")
resource.create(
    {
        "foo": ["bar", None, 2.33],
        "bar": {"hello": "world", "helloo": True},
        "baz": "hello",
        "tada": [{"foo": "bar"}, {"baz": False}, "boo", {}, []]
    }
)

resource.update(4, {"new": "stuff"}, insert=Insert.RIGHT)

Or with Async Support:

from pysirix import sirix_async, DBType, Insert
from httpx import AsyncClient
import asyncio


async def main():
    client = AsyncClient(base_url="http://localhost:9443")
    sirix = await sirix_async("admin", "admin", client)
    
    db = sirix.database("json-diff", DBType.JSON)
    await db.create()
    
    resource = db.resource("json-resource")
    await resource.create(
        {
            "foo": ["bar", None, 2.33],
            "bar": {"hello": "world", "helloo": True},
            "baz": "hello",
            "tada": [{"foo": "bar"}, {"baz": False}, "boo", {}, []]
        }
    )
    
    await resource.update(4, {"new": "stuff"}, insert=Insert.RIGHT)

loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()
loop.run_until_complete(asyncio.run(main()))

Installing

If you are not installing pysirix as part of a project, the preferred install method is to use pipx:

pipx install pysirix

Configuring

In your home directory, create a folder named pysirix-shell, and create a file named config.json in this folder. This file will hold the configuration for the shell. It should have the following form:

{
    "localhost": {
        "url": "http://localhost:9443",
        "username": "admin",
        "timeout": 4
    },
    "cloud": {
        "url": "https://sirix-demo.com:9443",
        "username": "administrator"
    }
}

The timeout field is optional, and defaults to 5 (seconds).
