The Flux Kontext Python SDK is the language-specific package for Flux Kontext on RunAPI. Use this package for image generation, image editing, and creative production workflows when your application needs request bodies, task status lookup, and consistent RunAPI errors in Python.
This README is the Python package guide inside the public flux-kontext-sdk repository. For the repository overview, start at ../README.md; for model details, use https://runapi.ai/models/flux-kontext; for API reference, use https://runapi.ai/docs#flux-kontext; for SDK docs, use https://runapi.ai/docs#sdk-flux-kontext.
pip install runapi-flux-kontextfrom runapi.flux_kontext import FluxKontextClient
client = FluxKontextClient() # reads RUNAPI_API_KEY, or pass api_key="sk-..."
task = client.text_to_image.create(
model="flux-kontext-pro",
prompt="A cinematic product photo on warm paper",
aspect_ratio="1:1",
)
status = client.text_to_image.get(task.id)Use create when you want to submit a task and return quickly, get when you need the latest task state, and run when a script should create and poll until completion:
result = client.text_to_image.run(
model="flux-kontext-pro",
prompt="A futuristic cityscape at dusk",
)
print(result.images[0].url)In web request handlers, prefer create plus webhook or later get polling so a worker is not held open.
RunAPI-generated file URLs are temporary. Download and store generated images, videos, audio, or other files in your own durable storage within 7 days; do not treat returned URLs as long-term assets.
Pass parameters as keyword arguments and catch the runapi.flux_kontext error classes when building image jobs or scripts. The available resource is text_to_image. Keep RUNAPI_API_KEY in the environment or your secret manager; never commit API keys or callback secrets.
