Atlan Application SDK is a Python library for building applications on the Atlan platform.
Package manager: uv (task runner via poe in pyproject.toml).
Non-standard commands used across the repo:
uv sync --all-extras --all-groups(full dev/test deps)uv run poe start-deps(local Dapr + Temporal)uv run poe generate-apidocs(MkDocs + API docs)uv run pre-commit run --files <file>(run pre-commit on specific file)uv run pre-commit run --all-files(run pre-commit on all files)
IMPORTANT: Always run pre-commit checks before committing. CI will fail if pre-commit checks fail.
IMPORTANT: For Dockerfile or dependency changes, run security scans (trivy, grype) before pushing. See docs/standards/build-security.md.
IMPORTANT: Never add or edit CHANGELOG.md entries manually. Changelog updates are generated by CI.
Commit Rules:
- Never add Co-Authored-By lines to commits
- Follow Conventional Commits format from
docs/standards/commits.md
Confidentiality:
- Never include customer names, tenant names, run IDs, or any other customer-identifiable information in code, comments, docstrings, commit messages, or PR descriptions. Reference incidents generically ("a production RCA", "a prior incident") — not by the customer or run involved.
Path Semantics (ObjectStore):
- Key and prefix params for ObjectStore APIs accept either
./local/tmp/...workflow paths or object-store keys likeartifacts/...; the SDK normalizes these internally. - Local file params remain local paths:
upload_file(key, local_path)anddownload_file(key, local_path)—keyis an object-store key (normalised internally);local_pathis a local filesystem path and is never treated as an object-store key.
