API
Kallithea has a simple JSON RPC API with a single schema for calling all API methods. Everything is available by sending JSON encoded http(s) requests to <your_server>/_admin/api.
API keys
Every Kallithea user automatically receives an API key, which they can view under "My Account". On this page, API keys can also be revoked, and additional API keys can be generated.
API access
Clients must send JSON encoded JSON-RPC requests:
{
"id": "<id>",
"api_key": "<api_key>",
"method": "<method_name>",
"args": {"<arg_key>": "<arg_val>"}
}
For example, to pull to a local "CPython" mirror using curl:
curl https://kallithea.example.com/_admin/api -X POST -H 'content-type:text/plain' \
--data-binary '{"id":1,"api_key":"xe7cdb2v278e4evbdf5vs04v832v0efvcbcve4a3","method":"pull","args":{"repoid":"CPython"}}'
- In general, provide
- id, a value of any type, can be used to match the response with the request that it is replying to.
- api_key, for authentication and permission validation.
- method, the name of the method to call -- a list of available methods can be found below.
- args, the arguments to pass to the method.
Note
api_key can be found or set on the user account page.
The response to the JSON-RPC API call will always be a JSON structure:
{
"id": <id>, # the id that was used in the request
"result": <result>|null, # JSON formatted result (null on error)
"error": null|<error_message> # JSON formatted error (null on success)
}
All responses from the API will be HTTP/1.0 200 OK. If an error occurs, the reponse will have a failure description in error and result will be null.
API client
Kallithea comes with a kallithea-api command line tool, providing a convenient way to call the JSON-RPC API.
For example, to call get_repo:
kallithea-api --apihost=<Kallithea URL> --apikey=<API key> get_repo Calling method get_repo => <Kallithea URL> Server response ERROR:"Missing non optional `repoid` arg in JSON DATA"
Oops, looks like we forgot to add an argument. Let's try again, now providing the repoid as a parameter:
kallithea-api --apihost=<Kallithea URL> --apikey=<API key> get_repo repoid:myrepo
Calling method get_repo => <Kallithea URL>
Server response
{
"clone_uri": null,
"created_on": "2015-08-31T14:55:19.042",
...
To avoid specifying apihost and apikey every time, run:
kallithea-api --save-config --apihost=<Kallithea URL> --apikey=<API key>
This will create a ~/.config/kallithea with the specified URL and API key so you don't have to specify them every time.
API methods
pull
Pull the given repo from remote location. Can be used to automatically keep remote repos up to date. This command can only be executed using the api_key of a user with admin rights.

API access for web views
Kallithea HTTP entry points can also be accessed without login using bearer authentication by including this header with the request:
Authentication: Bearer <api_key>
Alternatively, the API key can be passed in the URL query string using ?api_key=<api_key>, though this is not recommended due to the increased risk of API key leaks, and support will likely be removed in the future.
Exposing raw diffs is a good way to integrate with third-party services like code review, or build farms that can download archives.
