Sync and Async Object-oriented Python SDK for the 3x-ui API.
Overview • Quick Start • Examples • Bugs and Feature Requests • PyPI
This SDK is designed to interact with the 3x-ui app in a more object-oriented way. It provides both synchronous and asynchronous methods to interact with the app. The SDK is designed to be as simple as possible to use, while still providing a lot of flexibility and uses Pydantic
models to validate the data.
Used dependencies:
requests
for synchronous APIhttpx
for asynchronous APIpydantic
for models
Supported Python versions:
- 3.11
- 3.12
Since the 3x-ui app is under development, the SDK may not be compatible with all versions of the app. The developer of SDK is not related to the 3x-ui app, therefore the latest versions of the software are not guaranteed to be compatible with the SDK.
The SDK does not support versions of the 3x-ui older than 2.3.7
.
You can use both synchronous and asynchronous methods to interact with the 3x-ui app. Both APIs have the same methods and return the same data, so it's up to you to choose which one to use.
After installing the SDK, you can create a new instance of the API. When creating a new instance, you can either use environment variables or pass the credentials directly. It's strongly recommended to use environment variables to store the API credentials.
On creation, the Api won't connect to the 3x-ui app, so you can spawn new instances without spending resources. But after creating an instance, you'll need to call the login
method to authenticate the user and save the cookie for future requests.
pip install py3xui
It's recommended to use an environment variable to store the API credentials:
import os
os.environ["XUI_HOST"] = "http://your-3x-ui-host.com:2053"
os.environ["XUI_USERNAME"] = "your-username"
os.environ["XUI_PASSWORD"] = "your-password"
To work synchronously:
from py3xui import Api
# Using environment variables:
api = Api.from_env()
# Or using the credentials directly:
api = Api("http://your-3x-ui-host.com:2053", "your-username", "your-password")
To work asynchronously:
from py3xui import AsyncApi
# Using environment variables:
api = AsyncApi.from_env()
# Or using the credentials directly:
api = AsyncApi("http://your-3x-ui-host.com:2053", "your-username", "your-password")
*️⃣ If you're using a custom URI Path, ensure that you've added it to the host, for example:
If your host is http://your-3x-ui-host.com:2053
and the URI Path is /test/
, then the host should be http://your-3x-ui-host.com:2053/test/
.
Otherwise, all API requests will fail with a 404
error.
*️⃣ If you're using a secret token, which is set in in the 3x-ui panel, you'll also add it, otherwise all API request will fail.
Same as for other credentials, you can use an environment variable to store the token:
...
os.environ["XUI_TOKEN"] = "your-token"
api = Api.from_env()
Or pass it directly, when creating an instance:
api = Api("http://your-3x-ui-host.com:2053", "your-username", "your-password", "your-token")
Interacting with server over HTTPS requires careful management of TLS verification to ensure secure communications. This SDK provides options for setting TLS configurations, which include specifying custom certificates for increased trust or disabling TLS verification when necessary.
For development, you can disable TLS verification. This is not recommended for production due to the increased risk of security threats like man-in-the-middle attacks.
api = Api("http://your-3x-ui-host.com:2053", "your-username", "your-password", use_tls_verify=False)
❗ Warning: Never disable TLS verification in production.
If you are interacting with a server that uses a self-signed certificate or one not recognized by the standard CA bundle, you can specify a custom certificate path:
api = Api(
"http://your-3x-ui-host.com:2053",
"your-username",
"your-password",
custom_certificate_path="/path/to/your/certificate.pem",
)
This allows you to maintain TLS verification by providing a trusted certificate explicitly.
No matter which API you're using or if was it created using environment variables or credentials, you'll need to call the login
method to authenticate the user and save the cookie for future requests.
from py3xui import Api, AsyncApi
api = Api.from_env()
api.login()
async_api = AsyncApi.from_env()
await async_api.login()
You'll find detailed docs with usage examples for both APIs and for used models in the corresponding package directories:
In this section, you'll find some examples of how to use the SDK. In the examples, we'll use the synchronous API, but you can use the asynchronous API in the same way, just remember to use await
before calling the methods.
from py3xui import Api, Inbound
api = Api.from_env()
api.login()
inbounds: List[Inbound] = api.inbound.get_list()
from py3xui import Api
from py3xui.inbound import Inbound, Settings, Sniffing, StreamSettings
api = Api.from_env()
api.login()
settings = Settings()
sniffing = Sniffing(enabled=True)
tcp_settings = {
"acceptProxyProtocol": False,
"header": {"type": "none"},
}
stream_settings = StreamSettings(security="reality", network="tcp", tcp_settings=tcp_settings)
inbound = Inbound(
enable=True,
port=443,
protocol="vless",
settings=settings,
stream_settings=stream_settings,
sniffing=sniffing,
remark="test3",
)
api.inbound.add(inbound)
from py3xui import Api, Client
api = Api.from_env()
api.login()
client: Client = api.client.get_by_email("some-email")
from py3xui import Api, Client
api = Api.from_env()
api.login()
new_client = Client(id=str(uuid.uuid4()), email="test", enable=True)
inbound_id = 1
api.client.add(inbound_id, [new_client])
