Java client for accessing Algorithmia's algorithm marketplace and data APIs.
The Algorithmia java client is published to Maven central and can be added as a dependency via:
<dependency>
<groupId>com.algorithmia</groupId>
<artifactId>algorithmia-client</artifactId>
<version>[,1.1.0)</version>
</dependency>Instantiate a client using your API Key:
AlgorithmiaClient client = Algorithmia.client(apiKey);Notes:
- API key may be omitted only when making calls from algorithms running on the Algorithmia cluster
- Using version range
[,1.1.0)is recommended as it implies using the latest backward-compatible bugfixes.
Now you are ready to call algorithms.
The following examples of calling algorithms are organized by type of input/output which vary between algorithms.
Note: a single algorithm may have different input and output types, or accept multiple types of input, so consult the algorithm's description for usage examples specific to that algorithm.
Call an algorithm with text input by simply passing a string into its pipe method.
If the algorithm output is text, call the asString method on the response.
Algorithm algo = client.algo("algo://demo/Hello/0.1.1");
AlgoResponse result = algo.pipe("HAL 9000");
System.out.println(result.asString());
// -> Hello HAL 9000Call an algorithm with JSON input by simply passing in a type that can be serialized to JSON,
including most plain old java objects and collection types.
If the algorithm output is JSON, call the as method on the response with a TypeToken
containing the type that it should be deserialized into:
Algorithm algo = client.algo("algo://WebPredict/ListAnagrams/0.1.0");
List<String> words = Arrays.asList(("transformer", "terraforms", "retransform");
AlgoResponse result = algo.pipe(words);
// WebPredict/ListAnagrams returns an array of strings, so cast the result:
List<String> anagrams = result.as(new TypeToken<List<String>>(){});
// -> List("transformer", "retransform")Alternatively, you may work with raw JSON input by calling pipeJson,
and raw JSON output by calling asJsonString on the response:
String jsonWords = "[\"transformer\", \"terraforms\", \"retransform\"]";
AlgoResponse result2 = algo.pipeJson(jsonWords);
String anagrams = result2.asJsonString();
// -> "[\"transformer\", \"retransform\"]"
Double durationInSeconds = response.getMetadata().duration;Call an algorithm with binary input by passing a byte[] into the pipe method.
If the algorithm response is binary data, then call the as method on the response with a byte[] TypeToken
to obtain the raw byte array.
byte[] input = Files.readAllBytes(new File("/path/to/bender.jpg").toPath());
AlgoResponse result = client.algo("opencv/SmartThumbnail/0.1").pipe(input);
byte[] buffer = result.as(new TypeToken<byte[]>(){});
// -> [byte array]API errors will result in the call to pipe throwing APIException.
Errors that occur durring algorithm execution will result in AlgorithmException when attempting to read the response.
Algorithm algo = client.algo('util/whoopsWrongAlgo')
try {
AlgoResponse result = algo.pipe('Hello, world!');
String output = result.asString();
} catch (APIException ex) {
System.out.println("API Exception: " ex.getMessage());
} catch (AlgorithmException ex) {
System.out.println("Algorithm Exception: " ex.getMessage());
System.out.println(ex.stacktrace);
}The client exposes options that can configure algorithm requests. This includes support for changing the timeout or indicating that the API should include stdout in the response.:
Algorithm algo = client.algo("algo://demo/Hello/0.1.1")
.setTimeout(1, TimeUnit.MINUTES)
.setStdout(true);
AlgoResponse result = algo.pipe("HAL 9000");
Double stdout = response.getMetadata().stdout;Note: setStdout(true) is ignored if you do not have access to the algorithm source.
The Algorithmia Java client also provides a way to manage both Algorithmia hosted data and data from Dropbox or S3 accounts that you've connected to you Algorithmia account.
This client provides a DataFile type (generally created by client.file(uri))
and a DataDir type (generally created by client.dir(uri)) that provide
methods for managing your data.
Create directories by instantiating a DataDirectory object and calling create():
DataDirectory robots = client.dir("data://.my/robots");
robots.create();
DataDirectory dbxRobots = client.dir("dropbox://robots");
dbxRobots.create();Upload files by calling put on a DataFile object, or by calling putFile on a DataDirectory object.
DataDirectory robots = client.dir("data://.my/robots");
// Upload local file
robots.putFile(new File("/path/to/Optimus_Prime.png"));
// Write a text file
robots.file("Optimus_Prime.txt").put("Leader of the Autobots");
// Write a binary file
robots.file("Optimus_Prime.key").put(new byte[] { (byte)0xe0, 0x4f, (byte)0xd0, 0x20 });Download files by calling getString, getBytes, or getFile on a DataFile object:
DataDirectory robots = client.dir("data://.my/robots");
// Download file and get the file handle
File t800File = robots.file("T-800.png").getFile();
// Get the file's contents as a string
String t800Text = robots.file("T-800.txt").getString();
// Get the file's contents as a byte array
byte[] t800Bytes = robots.file("T-800.png").getBytes();Delete files and directories by calling delete on their respective DataFile or DataDirectory object.
DataDirectories take an optional force parameter that indicates whether the directory should be deleted
if it contains files or other directories.
client.file("data://.my/robots/C-3PO.txt").delete();
client.dir("data://.my/robots").delete(false);Iterate over the contents of a directory using the iterator returned by calling files, or dirs on a DataDirectory object:
// List top level directories
DataDirectory myRoot = client.dir("data://.my");
for(DataDirectory dir : myRoot.dirs()) {
System.out.println("Directory " + dir + " at URL " + dir.url());
}
// List files in the 'robots' directory
DataDirectory robots = client.dir("data://.my/robots");
for(DataFile file : robots.files()) {
System.out.println("File " + file + " at URL: " + file.url());
}Directory permissions may be set when creating a directory, or may be updated on already existing directories.
DataDirectory fooLimited = client.dir("data://.my/fooLimited");
// Create the directory as private
fooLimited.create(DataAcl.PRIVATE);
// Update a directory to be public
fooLimited.updatePermissions(DataAcl.PUBLIC);
// Check a directory's permissions
if (fooLimited.getPermissions().getReadPermissions() == DataAclType.PRIVATE) {
System.out.println("fooLimited is private");
