Methods

ImageAnnotatorClient

ImageAnnotatorClient(
    transport=None,
    channel=None,
    credentials=None,
    client_config=None,
    client_info=None,
    client_options=None,
)

Constructor.

Parameters
Name Description
channel grpc.Channel

DEPRECATED. A Channel instance through which to make calls. This argument is mutually exclusive with credentials; providing both will raise an exception.
credentials google.auth.credentials.Credentials

The authorization credentials to attach to requests. These credentials identify this application to the service. If none are specified, the client will attempt to ascertain the credentials from the environment. This argument is mutually exclusive with providing a transport instance to transport; doing so will raise an exception.
client_config dict

DEPRECATED. A dictionary of call options for each method. If not specified, the default configuration is used.
client_info google.api_core.gapic_v1.client_info.ClientInfo

The client info used to send a user-agent string along with API requests. If None, then default info will be used. Generally, you only need to set this if you're developing your own client library.
client_options Union[dict, google.api_core.client_options.ClientOptions]

Client options used to set user options on the client. API Endpoint should be set through client_options.

annotate_image

annotate_image(request, retry=None, timeout=None)

Run image detection and annotation for an image.

.. rubric:: Example

from google.cloud.vision_v1 import ImageAnnotatorClient client = ImageAnnotatorClient() request = { ... 'image': { ... 'source': {'image_uri': 'https://foo.com/image.jpg'}, ... }, ... } response = client.annotate_image(request)

Parameters
Name Description
retry Optional[google.api_core.retry.Retry]

A retry object used to retry requests. If None is specified, requests will not be retried.
timeout Optional[float]

The amount of time, in seconds, to wait for the request to complete. Note that if retry is specified, the timeout applies to each individual attempt.

async_batch_annotate_files

async_batch_annotate_files(requests, retry=<object object>, timeout=<object object>, metadata=None)

Run asynchronous image detection and annotation for a list of generic files, such as PDF files, which may contain multiple pages and multiple images per page. Progress and results can be retrieved through the google.longrunning.Operations interface. Operation.metadata contains OperationMetadata (metadata). Operation.response contains AsyncBatchAnnotateFilesResponse (results).

.. rubric:: Example

from google.cloud import vision_v1p3beta1

client = vision_v1p3beta1.ImageAnnotatorClient()

TODO: Initialize requests:

requests = []

response = client.async_batch_annotate_files(requests)

def callback(operation_future): ... # Handle result. ... result = operation_future.result()

response.add_done_callback(callback)

metadata = response.metadata()

Parameters
