Uploads

class astrometry_net_client.uploads.BaseUpload(session: Session, *args, **kwargs)

Extends from:

  1. astrometry_net_client.request.AuthorizedRequest,

  2. astrometry_net_client.request.PostRequest,

  3. Submitter

Base class for uploads to be made with the Astrometry.net API. Combines some abstact classes useful for an upload request (e.g. a submit method, default post request and authorization)

Meant as an abstact/base class, not to be called directly.

class astrometry_net_client.uploads.FileUpload(filename: str, *args, **kwargs)

Request for submitting a file

Extends from BaseUpload

Class for uploading a file to Astrometry.net upload file endpoint

Example

>>> s = Session(api_key='XXXXX')
>>> upl = FileUpload('some/file', session=s)
>>> submission = upl.submit()

You can then use the resulting submission to inspect the result of your upload.

Parameters:

  • filename (str) – The path to the file which you want to upload.

  • session (astrometry_net_client.session.Session) – The login session (required by the astrometry_net_client.request.AuthorizedRequest class)

Returns:

The submission object, which is created when you upload a file.

Return type:

astrometry_net_client.statusables.Submission

class astrometry_net_client.uploads.SourcesUpload(session: Session, *args, **kwargs)

Extends from BaseUpload

Class for uploading a list of sources. (inspired by astroquery implementation)

class astrometry_net_client.uploads.Submitter

Abstract class intended to use as a mixin class with a Request object (and hence assumes a _make_request method). Provides a new submit method, similar to make, but creates a Submission object out of the resulting response (from the subid entry).

Example

>>> upl = FileUpload(filename, session)
>>> submission = upl.submit()
submit() → Submission

Submit function, similar to make but in addition creates and returns the resulting submission.

Returns:

The submission which is created by the API. Use this to get the status & result(s) of your upload.

Return type:

astrometry_net_client.statusables.Submission

class astrometry_net_client.uploads.URLUpload(session: Session, *args, **kwargs)

Extends from BaseUpload

Class for making a url upload to Astrometry.net http://astrometry.net/doc/net/api.html#submitting-a-url
