Getting started with the Dapr client Python SDK

How to get up and running with the Dapr Python SDK

The Dapr client package allows you to interact with other Dapr applications from a Python application.

Pre-requisites

Import the client package

The dapr package contains the DaprClient which will be used to create and use a client.

from dapr.clients import DaprClient

Building blocks

The Python SDK allows you to interface with all of the Dapr building blocks.

Invoke a service

from dapr.clients import DaprClient

with DaprClient() as d:
    resp = d.invoke_service(id='service-to-invoke', method='method-to-invoke', data='{"message":"Hello World"}')

Save & get application state

from dapr.clients import DaprClient

with DaprClient() as d:
    # Save state
    d.save_state(store_name="statestore", key="key1", value="value1")

    # Get state
    data = d.get_state(store_name="statestore", key="key1").data

    # Delete state
    d.delete_state(store_name="statestore", key="key1")

Publish messages

from dapr.clients import DaprClient

with DaprClient() as d:
    resp = d.publish_event(pubsub_name='pubsub', topic='TOPIC_A', data='{"message":"Hello World"}')

Interact with output bindings

from dapr.clients import DaprClient

with DaprClient() as d:
    resp = d.invoke_binding(name='kafkaBinding', operation='create', data='{"message":"Hello World"}')

Retrieve secrets

from dapr.clients import DaprClient

with DaprClient() as d:
    resp = d.get_secret(store_name='localsecretstore', key='secretKey')
