pip install raindrop-ai

Common errors

error ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'raindrop' ↓

cause Importing with incorrect package name (using hyphen instead of underscore).

fix

Use 'from raindrop_ai import RaindropClient' (underscore).

error raindrop_ai.exceptions.AuthenticationError: Invalid API key ↓

cause API key not provided or invalid.

fix

Set RAINDROP_API_KEY environment variable or pass api_key='your_key' to RaindropClient().

error TypeError: extract() got an unexpected keyword argument 'file_path' ↓

cause Using deprecated 'file_path' parameter in newer SDK version.

fix

Use 'url' parameter instead of 'file_path'.

Warnings

deprecated The 'extract' method signature changed in 0.0.40: 'url' parameter is now required, and 'file_path' is deprecated. ↓

fix Use 'url' parameter instead of 'file_path'.

gotcha API key must be set via 'RAINDROP_API_KEY' environment variable or passed to RaindropClient constructor. Omitting it leads to authentication errors. ↓

fix Set RAINDROP_API_KEY environment variable or pass api_key parameter.

breaking In version 0.0.35, the 'parse' method was renamed to 'extract'. Old method no longer works. ↓

fix Use 'extract' instead of 'parse'.
