What is Darwin.py Client?

As you probably know, Darwin.py is a tool that allows you to perform actions on your V7 assets either via a CLI or programmatically.
Darwin.py SDK, allows you to do the second task. It is a SDK that you can import into your own Python code as any other library and then use it as part of your application.

The following snippet illustrates how you can do this:

import darwin.importer as importer
from darwin.client import Client
from darwin.importer import get_importer

client = Client.from_api_key(API_KEY)

dataset = client.get_remote_dataset(dataset_identifier=dataset_identifier)

parser = get_importer(format_name)

importer.import_annotations(dataset, parser, annotation_paths, append=true)

There is a lot to unpack here, so in the following sections we will be covering the following topics:

Authentication
Creating datasets
Listing datasets
Exports/Releases (download data)
Importing data from different format
Uploading data to datasets
Annotation Classes
PyTorch Integration
