Prerequisites
- Create an API Key from the Eachlabs Console
- Install the required dependencies for your chosen language (e.g., requests for Python)
API Integration Steps
1. Create a Prediction
Send a POST request to create a new prediction. This will return a prediction ID that you'll use to check the result. The request should include your model inputs and API key.
import requestsimport timeAPI_KEY = "YOUR_API_KEY" # Replace with your API keyHEADERS = {"X-API-Key": API_KEY,"Content-Type": "application/json"}def create_prediction():response = requests.post("https://api.eachlabs.ai/v1/prediction/",headers=HEADERS,json={"model": "flux-schnell","version": "0.0.1","input": {"megapixels": "1","num_outputs": "1","prompt": "your prompt here","aspect_ratio": "1:1","seed": null,"output_format": "webp","output_quality": "80","disable_safety_checker": "true","go_fast": "true","num_inference_steps": "4"}})prediction = response.json()if prediction["status"] != "success":raise Exception(f"Prediction failed: {prediction}")return prediction["predictionID"]
2. Get Prediction Result
Poll the prediction endpoint with the prediction ID until the result is ready. The API uses long-polling, so you'll need to repeatedly check until you receive a success status.
def get_prediction(prediction_id):while True:result = requests.get(f"https://api.eachlabs.ai/v1/prediction/{prediction_id}",headers=HEADERS).json()if result["status"] == "success":return resultelif result["status"] == "error":raise Exception(f"Prediction failed: {result}")time.sleep(1) # Wait before polling again
3. Complete Example
Here's a complete example that puts it all together, including error handling and result processing. This shows how to create a prediction and wait for the result in a production environment.
try:# Create predictionprediction_id = create_prediction()print(f"Prediction created: {prediction_id}")# Get resultresult = get_prediction(prediction_id)print(f"Output URL: {result['output']}")print(f"Processing time: {result['metrics']['predict_time']}s")except Exception as e:print(f"Error: {e}")
Additional Information
- The API uses a two-step process: create prediction and poll for results
- Response time: -
- Rate limit: 60 requests/minute
- Concurrent requests: 10 maximum
- Use long-polling to check prediction status until completion
