Methods

__init__(snippets, **kwargs)

Create an array snip from a list of snippets.

as_json([validate])

Return the snippet as a dictionary in basic snippet json format.

preview([token])

Generate a snippet preview.

upload([book_id, token, validate])

Upload the snippet to the labbook.

__init__(snippets: list[BaseSnip], **kwargs)

Create an array snip from a list of snippets.

Parameters:
as_json(validate=True) dict

Return the snippet as a dictionary in basic snippet json format.

Returns a dict in the basic snippet structure.

{
    "book_id": 123
    "type": "text"
    "data": {}
    "view": {}
}

If the schema is set in the class it is used to validate the snippet data before returning it.

Parameters:

validate (bool, optional) – If True, the snippet is validated against the schema. Defaults to True.

Raises:

jsonschema.ValidationError – If the snippet does not match the schema.

book_id: int | None

The identifier of the book the snippet belongs to

property bounding_box

Get the bounding box of the array.

At the moment rotation and other transformations are not considered.

Returns:

A tuple of floats [left, top, right, bottom]

Return type:

Bounds

deployment: str | None

The deployment URL of the snippet

property height

Height of the snippet.

Ignoring rotation and mirroring. For the actual size of the snippet on the page, use the bounding_box property.

property mirror

Mirror the snippet on the x axis.

property pos: Tuple[float, float] | None

Position of the snippet on a page.

Returns none if the position is not set yet.

preview(token: Token | None = None, **kwargs) Image | None

Generate a snippet preview.

This requests a server side rendering of the snippet and returns the preview image.

Returns:

  • token (Token) – The token to use for the request. If None, the token gets inferred if possible.

  • **kwargs (Any) – Additional keyword arguments to pass to the requests function.

property rotation

Rotation of the snippet on a page in degrees.

The rotation origin is the center of the snippet and is defined in degrees.

property schema: dict | None

Schema to validate the snippet.

The schema is used to validate the snippet and should be a valid jsonschema.Draft202012Validator schema.

Returns:

The schema for this snippet class if available. If none is available, None is returned and the schema functionality is disabled.

Return type:

schema

property size

Get the size of the array.

This is not implemented for ArraySnip. Use bounding_box instead!

type: str = 'array'

The type identifier of the snippet e.g. ‘text’, ‘image’ etc.

upload(book_id: int | None = None, token: BookToken | None = None, validate=True, **kwargs)

Upload the snippet to the labbook.

This method uploads this snippet to a labbok given the snippets book_id and deployment url.

If no token is provided, the token is inferred from the book_id and deployment.

Parameters:
  • book_id (int, optional) – The book_id of the snippet. Defaults to None. If None, the snippet book_id is derived

  • token (Token) – The token to use for the request. If None, the token gets inferred if possible.

  • validate (bool, optional) – Weather to validate the snippet before uploading. Defaults to True.

  • **kwargs (Any) – Additional keyword arguments to pass to the requests function.

property width

Width of the snippet.

Ignoring rotation and mirroring. For the actual size of the snippet on the page, use the bounding_box property.

property x

Vertical position of the snippet.

Returns none if the position is not set yet.

property y

Horizontal position of the snippet.

Returns none if the position is not set yet.
