Prerequisites

To get the most out of this guide, you’ll need to:

2

Install the SDK

Get the Livepeer Python SDK.

pip install livepeer
3

Initialize the SDK

The first step is to initialize the SDK with your Livepeer Studio API key.

import livepeer
from livepeer.models import operations

lpClient = livepeer.SDK(
    api_key="", # Your API key
)
4

Use the SDK

Now that you have the SDK installed and initialized, you can use it in your app. Let’s create a stream.

import livepeer
from livepeer.models import components

lpClient = livepeer.SDK(
    api_key="",
)

req = components.NewStreamPayload(
    name='test_stream'
)

res = lpClient.stream.create(req)

if res.data is not None:
    # handle response
    pass
