    Python SDK Pre-Release

    The Python SDK is in a  working state but needs to go through a round of testing and in depth unit tests must be created.  I would like to invite anyone who is interested in taking an early look to post here and let me know so I can send the pre-release version your way.

    The current functionality so far is:

    • Full API Represented through dynamic methods using the REST API.
    • Single File uploads based on the HTTP Partial File Upload using httplib.
    • Single file Downloads based on httplib.

    This is an early release but already its quite promising since most of the work has been done on the dynamic handler.

    Re: Python SDK Pre-Release

     Not quite yet, I am still wrapping up some of the upload calls.  Partial file upload using httplib is quite difficult due to the way Python handles sending the body and the way the data is handled.  I am considering using sockets instead to make it a bit more reliable and to a point where I feel its sufficient to handle large amounts of traffic / threading.  I don't get that comfort using httplib. 

    There is always the option of using cURL but that requires an additional install and I would prefer to use the native 2.5 Python library.

    I will try to get the first version up soon.
