Mon Sep 16 15:28:09 UTC 2024: ## LumaAI Python Library: Convenient Access to LumaAI REST API

**[City, State] – [Date]** – The LumaAI Python library has been released, offering Python developers a convenient way to access the LumaAI REST API from any Python 3.7+ application. The library simplifies API interaction with features including:

* **Typed Requests & Responses:** Type definitions for all request parameters and response fields ensure code completion and documentation within your editor.
* **Synchronous & Asynchronous Clients:** Both synchronous and asynchronous clients are provided, powered by httpx.
* **Error Handling:** Clear error handling with subclasses for API connection problems, non-success status codes, and timeouts.
* **Automatic Retries:** Certain errors are automatically retried twice by default, including connection errors, timeout issues, and specific server errors.
* **Logging:** Environment variable `LUMAAI_LOG` enables logging for debugging.
* **Streaming Responses:** Allows for efficient handling of large response bodies.
* **Undocumented Access:** Supports requests to undocumented endpoints, parameters, and response properties.
* **Customization:** Provides options to customize the underlying httpx client and add extra request parameters.

The library encourages best practices by recommending the use of environment variables for API keys to avoid storing them in source control.

**Installation:**
The library can be installed using the following command:

“`bash
pip install lumaai
“`
