Python SDK

Beta

The Python SDK is not production-ready. Its async SQL and live-query APIs are documented, but the kalamdb package is not available on PyPI for the 0.8 release. See Python SDK status before using these examples. For a Python application today, use the HTTP API or the PostgreSQL wire listener with psycopg.

python

1from kalamdb import Auth, KalamClient2 3async with KalamClient("http://localhost:2900", Auth.basic("admin", "AdminPass123!")) as client:4    rows = await client.query_rows("SELECT * FROM app.messages LIMIT 20")5    print(rows)

Live APIs

Use these three methods for realtime work:

Method	Returns	Use for
`live(sql, ...)`	`LiveRows`	Materialized row snapshots for a supported `SELECT` query
`live_table(table, ...)`	`LiveRows`	Materialized row snapshots for `SELECT * FROM table`
`live_events(sql, ...)`	`LiveEvents`	Low-level protocol events such as `subscription_ack`, `initial_data_batch`, `change`, and `error`
