Asynchronous Python client for the Syncthing REST API.

Inspired by python-syncthing, some snippets were copied from python-fumis

NOTE: The package is in active development. Not all features of the API are implemented.

pip install aiosyncthing

import asyncio

from aiosyncthing import Syncthing

async def main():

  async with Syncthing("API Key") as client:
    # interact with the client here
    pass

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

Syncthing is the entrypoint class, it acts as an async context manager and provides access to endpoint namespaces.

    def __init__(
        self,
        api_key, # your API Key
        url="http://127.0.0.1:8384", # A base URL of the server, https://syncthing.example.com:443/something is also possible
        timeout=DEFAULT_TIMEOUT, # Timeout in seconds
        verify_ssl=True, # Perform SSL verification
        loop=None, # event loop
        session=None # client session,
    )...

In case if the api_key is invalid, aiosyncthing.exceptions.SyncthingError will be raised on attempt to perform any request except client.system.ping(), this one only raises aiosyncthing.exceptions.PingError.

Provides access to the System Endpoints

Returns none if ping is successful or raises syncthing.exceptions.PingError

await client.system.ping()

Returns a dict with the server config or raises syncthing.exceptions.SyncthingError

await client.system.config()

Returns a dict with the server status or raises syncthing.exceptions.SyncthingError

await client.system.status()

Returns a dict with the server version or raises syncthing.exceptions.SyncthingError

await client.system.version()

Pauses synchronization with all devices or with the selected device or raises syncthing.exceptions.SyncthingError, in case if passed devices is unknown to the server, syncthing.exceptions.UnknownDeviceError will be raised. Always returns None

await client.system.pause() # pause all
await client.system.pause(device_id) # eg: 'MTLMICV-YE72URC-NF4LBO3-2LVPTFZ-LLCZHEZ-2F3OEJS-R6CWZVE-7VXHFQA"

Resumes synchronization with all devices or with a selected device or raises syncthing.exceptions.SyncthingError, in case if passed devices is unknown to the server, syncthing.exceptions.UnknownDeviceError will be raised. Always returns None

await client.system.resume() # resume all
await client.system.resume(device_id) # eg: 'MTLMICV-YE72URC-NF4LBO3-2LVPTFZ-LLCZHEZ-2F3OEJS-R6CWZVE-7VXHFQA"

Provides access to the Database Endpoints

Returns a dict with the folder status or raises syncthing.exceptions.SyncthingError. If the folder id is unknown to the server, syncthing.exceptions.UnknownFolderError will be raised.

await client.database.status(folder_id) # eg: 'GXWxf-3zgnU'

Provides access to the Events Endpoints

Is an async generator function that listens to the Event API, yields events one by one and hides the complexity of long polling. Raises syncthing.exceptions.SyncthingError in case of error, handles timeouts internally and reconnects to the endpoint.

async for event in client.events.listen():
  print(event)

Returns the id of the last received event of the previous batch.

async for event in client.events.listen():
  if events.last_seen_id == 0:
    continue # skip first batch because it's historical data
