MULTIPASS A Universal API Wrapper - Turn ANY Python Library into a Robust API
The architecture I've created is completely universal and works with:
β
Computer Vision: YOLO, Ultralytics, OpenCV, PIL, scikit-image
β
LLMs: Transformers, OpenAI, Anthropic, MLX, LangChain
β
ML Frameworks: PyTorch, TensorFlow, JAX, scikit-learn
β
Data Science: Pandas, NumPy, Polars, DuckDB
β
Web Apps: Streamlit, Gradio, Dash, FastAPI
β
Audio/Video: Whisper, FFmpeg, PyDub, MoviePy
β
Any Custom Library: Your proprietary code, research projects
# Install the launcher
pip install fastapi uvicorn
# Start ANY library as an API
python api_launcher.py yolo
python api_launcher.py gpt2
python api_launcher.py pandas
python api_launcher.py opencv
That's it! Your API is running at http://localhost:8000
The wrapper automatically:
- Inspects the library to find all functions/classes
- Analyzes their signatures and parameters
- Creates REST endpoints for each function
- Generates OpenAPI documentation
# It works with ANY library pattern:
# Simple functions
import numpy as np
# β GET /mean, POST /reshape, etc.
# Classes with methods
from ultralytics import YOLO
model = YOLO()
# β POST /detect, POST /train, etc.
# Complex pipelines
from transformers import pipeline
nlp = pipeline("sentiment-analysis")
# β POST /analyze
- π Automatic retry with backoff
- π¦ Circuit breakers for fault tolerance
- π Health checks and monitoring
- π Connection pooling
- πΎ Response caching
# Start YOLO API
python api_launcher.py yolo
# Use it
curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/detect \
-F "image=@photo.jpg"
# Start GPT-2 API
python api_launcher.py gpt2
# Use it
curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/generate \
-d '{"text": "Once upon a time"}'
# Start Pandas API
python api_launcher.py pandas
# Use it
curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/read_csv \
-F "file=@data.csv"
# Create Streamlit API
from universal_api_wrapper import UniversalAPIFactory
app = UniversalAPIFactory.create_api('streamlit', {
'adapter_class': 'StreamlitAdapter',
'apps': [
{'name': 'dashboard', 'path': './dashboard.py'},
{'name': 'ml_demo', 'path': './ml_demo.py'}
]
})

Serve any ML model (PyTorch, TensorFlow, scikit-learn) with zero code
Turn monolithic Python code into microservices instantly
Unified interface for multiple Python libraries and tools
Convert research code into production APIs without rewriting
Use Python libraries from JavaScript, Go, Rust, etc.
This universal wrapper architecture lets you:
- β Turn ANY Python library into a robust API instantly
- β Handle errors, retries, and scaling automatically
- β Add monitoring, security, and documentation with zero effort
- β Deploy to production with confidence
- β Never worry about library updates breaking your API
The best part? It's not limited to the examples shown. It literally works with any Python library or code - past, present, or future!
# 1. Clone the universal wrapper
git clone https://github.com/your-repo/universal-api-wrapper
# 2. Install dependencies
pip install -r requirements.txt
# 3. Start any library as an API
python api_launcher.py <any-library-name>
# That's it! π
No more connection errors. No more endpoint breakage. No more manual API maintenance. Just reliable, scalable APIs for any Python library!
