UnDatasIO

Official Website: https://undatas.io/

UnDatasIO provides powerful, cloud-based file parsing capabilities. This Python SDK offers a streamlined, developer-friendly interface for interacting with the UnDatasIO API. It allows you to programmatically manage workspaces, tasks, and files, enabling you to focus on data analysis and application development.


  • Workspace & Task Management: Easily list and navigate through your workspaces and tasks.
  • Comprehensive File Handling: Upload new files to specific tasks and list existing ones.
  • Asynchronous Parsing: Trigger parsing jobs for one or multiple files with configurable parameters.
  • Flexible Result Retrieval: Fetch structured parsing results as text or request a downloadable ZIP archive containing all artifacts.
  • Pythonic Design: Methods return data directly (e.g., a list of dictionaries) on success and None on failure, with detailed errors logged for easy debugging.

🤖You can easily install the UnDatasIO Python SDK using pip:

Terminal window
pip install undatasio

🥇 The new workflow follows a logical hierarchy: Workspace -> Task -> File. Here’s a complete example demonstrating the entire process:

import time
from undatasio import UnDatasIO
import pandas as pd
# 1. Initialize the UnDatasIO client with your token and the API base URL
client = UnDatasIO(
token='your_api_key_here'
)
# 2. List available workspaces and select the first one
workspaces = client.workspace_list()
if not workspaces:
exit("No workspaces found.")
first_workspace_id = workspaces[0]['work_id']
print(f"Using workspace: {first_workspace_id}")
# 3. List tasks within the selected workspace and select the first one
tasks = client.task_list(work_id=first_workspace_id)
if not tasks:
exit(f"No tasks found in workspace {first_workspace_id}.")
first_task_id = tasks[0]['task_id']
print(f"Using task: {first_task_id}")
# 4. Upload a new file to this task
# Make sure 'path/to/your/document.pdf' exists
if client.upload_file(task_id=first_task_id, file_path='path/to/your/document.pdf'):
print("File uploaded successfully!")
# 5. List all files in the task to get a file_id
files = client.get_task_files(task_id=first_task_id)
if not files:
exit("No files found in the task.")
file_to_process = files[0]
file_id = file_to_process['file_id']
print(f"Processing file: {file_to_process['file_name']} (ID: {file_id})")
# 6. Trigger the parsing process for the file
if client.parse_files(task_id=first_task_id, file_ids=[file_id]):
print("Parsing task successfully triggered. Waiting for completion...")
# In a real application, you might poll for status. Here, we just wait.
while True:
time.sleep(10)
get_task_files = pd.DataFrame(client.get_task_files(task_id=task_id))
if len(get_task_files):
print(get_task_files)
status = get_task_files[get_task_files['file_id'] == file_id].status.values[0]
if status == 'parser success':
break
# 7. Get the parsed text result
result_text = client.get_parse_result(task_id=first_task_id, file_id=file_id)
if result_text:
print("\n--- Parsed Result (Text) ---")
print("\n".join(result_text)[:500] + "...") # Print first 500 characters
# 8. Get the download URL for the result archive
download_url = client.download_parsed_results(task_id=first_task_id, file_ids=[file_id])
if download_url:
print("\n--- Download URL ---")
print(download_url)

🔥 The UnDatasIO Python SDK provides the following methods:

  • UnDatasIO(token: str)

    • 🛠️ Initializes the client.
      • token (str): Your API key, obtained from the UnDatasIO platform.
  • workspace_list(self) -> Optional[List[Dict]]

    • 🏢 Retrieves a list of all workspaces accessible by your API key.
      • file_dir_path (str): The path to the directory containing the files to upload.
      • Returns: A list of dictionaries, where each dictionary represents a workspace, or None on failure.
  • task_list(self, work_id: str) -> Optional[List[Dict]]

    • 📋 Retrieves a list of all tasks within a specific workspace.
      • task_id (str): The ID of the target task.
      • Returns: A list of dictionaries representing tasks, or None on failure.
  • get_task_files(self, task_id: str) -> Optional[List[Dict]]

    • 📂 Retrieves a list of all files within a specific task.
      • task_id (str): The ID of the target task.
      • Returns: A list of dictionaries representing files, or None on failure.
  • upload_file(self, task_id: str, file_path: str) -> bool

    • 📤 Uploads a single file to a specific task.
      • task_id (str): The ID of the task to upload the file to.
      • file_path (str): The local path to the file to be uploaded.
      • Returns: True on successful upload, False on failure.
  • parse_files(self, task_id: str, file_ids: List[str], **kwargs) -> bool

    • 🌟 Triggers a parsing job for one or more files.
      • task_id (str): The local path to the file to be uploaded.
      • file_ids (List[str]): The local path to the file to be uploaded.
      • Optional keyword arguments like lang='ch' or parse_mode='fast' can be passed.
      • Returns: True if the parsing job was successfully triggered, False otherwise.

📚 This SDK is designed for simplicity. All methods that fetch data will return the data directly on success or None on failure. Methods that perform an action will return True on success or False on failure.

  • Check for ``None`` or ``False``. :Always check the return value of a method call to handle potential failures gracefully.
  • Check the Logs In case of failure, the SDK will log detailed error information to the console using Python’s standard logging module. This is your primary tool for debugging.
