        # Roboflow Python Package
        
        [Roboflow](https://roboflow.com) provides everything you need to build and deploy computer vision models. `roboflow-python` is the official Roboflow Python package. `roboflow-python` enables you to interact with models, datasets, and projects hosted on Roboflow.
        
        With this Python package, you can:
        
        1. Create and manage projects;
        2. Upload images, annotations, and datasets to manage in Roboflow;
        3. Start training vision models on Roboflow;
        4. Run inference on models hosted on Roboflow, or Roboflow models self-hosted via [Roboflow Inference](https://github.com/roboflow/inference), and more.
        
        The Python package is documented on the [official Roboflow documentation site](https://docs.roboflow.com/api-reference/introduction). If you are developing a feature for this Python package, or need a full Python library reference, refer to the [package developer documentation](https://roboflow.github.io/roboflow-python/).
        
        ## 💻 Installation

        ## 🚀 Getting Started
        
        To use the Roboflow Python package, you first need to authenticate with your Roboflow account. You can do this by running the following command:
        
        ```python
        import roboflow
        roboflow.login()
        ```
        
        <details>
        <summary>Authenticate with an API key</summary>
        
        You can also authenticate with an API key by using the following code:
        
        ```python
        import roboflow
        
        rf = roboflow.Roboflow(api_key="")
        ```
        
        [Learn how to retrieve your Roboflow API key](https://docs.roboflow.com/api-reference/authentication#retrieve-an-api-key).
        
        </details>
        
        ## Quickstart
        
        Below are some common methods used with the Roboflow Python package, presented concisely for reference. For a full library reference, refer to the [Roboflow API reference documentation](https://docs.roboflow.com/api-reference).
        
        ```python
        import roboflow
        
        # Pass API key or use roboflow.login()
        rf = roboflow.Roboflow(api_key="MY_API_KEY")
        
        workspace = rf.workspace()
        
        # creating object detection model that will detect flowers
        project = workspace.create_project(
            project_name="Flower detector",
            project_type="object-detection", # Or "classification", "instance-segmentation", "semantic-segmentation"
            project_license="MIT", # "private" for private projects, only available for paid customers
            annotation="flowers" # If you plan to annotate lillys, sunflowers, etc.
        )
        
        # upload a dataset
        workspace.upload_dataset(
            dataset_path="./dataset/",
            num_workers=10,
            dataset_format="yolov8", # supports yolov8, yolov5, and Pascal VOC
            project_license="MIT",
            project_type="object-detection"
        )
        
        version = project.version("VERSION_NUMBER")
        
        # upload model weights - yolov10
        version.deploy(model_type="yolov10", model_path=f”{HOME}/runs/detect/train/”, filename="weights.pt")
        
        # run inference
        model = version.model
        
        img_url = "https://media.roboflow.com/quickstart/aerial_drone.jpeg"
        
        predictions = model.predict(img_url, hosted=True).json()
        
        print(predictions)
        ```
        
        ## Library Structure
        
        The Roboflow Python library is structured using the same Workspace, Project, and Version ontology that you will see in the Roboflow application.
        
        ```python
        import roboflow
        
        roboflow.login()
        
        rf = roboflow.Roboflow()
        
        workspace = rf.workspace("WORKSPACE_URL")
        project = workspace.project("PROJECT_URL")
        version = project.version("VERSION_NUMBER")
        ```
        
        The workspace, project, and version parameters are the same as those you will find in the URL addresses at app.roboflow.com and universe.roboflow.com.
        
        Within the workspace object you can perform actions like making a new project, listing your projects, or performing active learning where you are using predictions from one project's model to upload images to a new project.
        
        Within the project object, you can retrieve metadata about the project, list versions, generate a new dataset version with preprocessing and augmentation settings, train a model in your project, and upload images and annotations to your project.
        
        Within the version object, you can download the dataset version in any model format, train the version on Roboflow, and deploy your own external model to Roboflow.
