qBraid-CORE
Python client for developing software with qBraid cloud services
qBraid-CORE is a Python library providing core abstractions for software development within the qBraid ecosystem, and a low-level interface to a growing array of qBraid cloud services. The qbraid-core package forms the foundational base for the qBraid CLI, the qBraid SDK, and the jupyter-environment-manager. You can find the latest, most up to date, documentation here, including a list of services that are supported.

​
Getting Started

You can install qbraid-core from PyPI with: 
python -m pip install qbraid-core

​
Local configuration

After installing qbraid-core, you must configure your account credentials:
  1. Create a qBraid account or log in to your existing account by visiting account.qbraid.com
  2. Copy your API Key from the left side of your account page:
  3. Save your API key from step 2 in local configuration file ~/.qbraid/qbraidrc, where ~ corresponds to your home ($HOME) directory:
[default]
api-key = YOUR_KEY
url = https://api.qbraid.com/api
Or generate your ~/.qbraid/qbraidrc file via the qbraid-core Python interface: 
>>> from qbraid_core import QbraidSession
>>> session = QbraidSession(api_key='API_KEY')
>>> session.save_config()
>>> session.get_available_services()
['chat', 'environments', 'quantum', 'storage']
Other credential configuration methods can be found here.

​
Verify setup

After configuring your qBraid credentials, verify your setup by running the following from a Python interpreter: 
>>> import qbraid_core
>>> quantum_client = qbraid_core.client('quantum')
>>> device_data = quantum_client.search_devices()
>>> for item in device_data:
...     print(item['qbraid_id'])
