Appwrite Python SDK

Installation

pip install appwrite

Setting Up the Client

from appwrite.client import Client
from appwrite.id import ID
from appwrite.query import Query
from appwrite.services.users import Users
from appwrite.services.tables_db import TablesDB
from appwrite.services.storage import Storage
from appwrite.services.functions import Functions
from appwrite.enums.o_auth_provider import OAuthProvider

import os

client = (Client()
    .set_endpoint('https://<REGION>.cloud.appwrite.io/v1')
    .set_project(os.environ['APPWRITE_PROJECT_ID'])
    .set_key(os.environ['APPWRITE_API_KEY']))

Code Examples

User Management

users = Users(client)

# Create user
user = users.create(ID.unique(), '[email protected]', None, 'password123', 'User Name')

# List users
result = users.list([Query.limit(25)])

# Get user
fetched = users.get('[USER_ID]')

# Delete user
users.delete('[USER_ID]')

Database Operations

Note: Use TablesDB (not the deprecated Databases class) for all new code. Only use Databases if the existing codebase already relies on it or the user explicitly requests it.

Tip: Prefer keyword arguments (e.g., database_id='...') over positional arguments for all SDK method calls. Only use positional style if the existing codebase already uses it or the user explicitly requests it.

tables_db = TablesDB(client)

# Create database
db = tables_db.create(ID.unique(), 'My Database')

# Create row
doc = tables_db.create_row('[DATABASE_ID]', '[TABLE_ID]', ID.unique(), {
    'title': 'Hello World'
})

# Query rows
results = tables_db.list_rows('[DATABASE_ID]', '[TABLE_ID]', [
    Query.equal('title', 'Hello World'),
    Query.limit(10)
])

# Get row
row = tables_db.get_row('[DATABASE_ID]', '[TABLE_ID]', '[ROW_ID]')

# Update row
tables_db.update_row('[DATABASE_ID]', '[TABLE_ID]', '[ROW_ID]', {
    'title': 'Updated'
})

# Delete row
tables_db.delete_row('[DATABASE_ID]', '[TABLE_ID]', '[ROW_ID]')
