Installation

pip install uploadthing.py

Quickstart

Using UTApi

This is basically a 1:1 clone of the official TypeScript SDK

import asyncio, os

from uploadthing_py import UTApi


async def main():
    utapi = UTApi(os.getenv("UPLOADTHING_SECRET"))

    # List the files in your app
    res = await utapi.list_files()
    print("List files:", res)

    # Delete the first file from the list
    key = res[0].key
    res = await utapi.delete_file(key)
    print("Delete file:", res)

    # (TODO) Create a new file
    # res = await utapi.upload_files()


if __name__ == "__main__":
    asyncio.run(main())

Using FastAPI

You can use FastAPI like any of the JavaScript backend adapters.

Tip

You can use this example along with one of the client examples

UPLOADTHING_SECRET=sk_foo poetry run uvicorn examples.fastapi:app --reload --port 3000

Warning

This is a work in progress and not yet ready for production use.
