Arguments:

  • port int - The port to open the preview link on.

Returns:

  • PortPreviewUrl - The response object for the preview link, which includes the url and the token (to access private sandboxes).

AsyncSandbox.archive

python
@intercept_errors(message_prefix="Failed to archive sandbox: ")
@with_instrumentation()
async def archive() -> None

Archives the sandbox, making it inactive and preserving its state. When sandboxes are archived, the entire filesystem state is moved to cost-effective object storage, making it possible to keep sandboxes available for an extended period. The tradeoff between archived and stopped states is that starting an archived sandbox takes more time, depending on its size. Sandbox must be stopped before archiving.

AsyncSandbox.resize

python
@intercept_errors(message_prefix="Failed to resize sandbox: ")
@with_timeout()
@with_instrumentation()
async def resize(resources: Resources, timeout: float | None = 60) -> None

Resizes the Sandbox resources.

Changes the CPU, memory, or disk allocation for the Sandbox. Hot resize (on running sandbox) only allows CPU/memory increases. Disk resize requires a stopped sandbox.

Arguments:

  • resources Resources - New resource configuration. Only specified fields will be updated.
    • cpu: Number of CPU cores (minimum: 1). For hot resize, can only be increased.
    • memory: Memory in GiB (minimum: 1). For hot resize, can only be increased.
    • disk: Disk space in GiB (can only be increased, requires stopped sandbox).
  • timeout Optional[float] - Timeout (in seconds) for the resize operation. 0 means no timeout. Default is 60 seconds.

Raises:

  • DaytonaError - If hot resize constraints are violated (CPU/memory decrease on running sandbox).
  • DaytonaError - If disk resize attempted on running sandbox.
  • DaytonaError - If disk size decrease is attempted.
  • DaytonaError - If resize operation times out.
  • DaytonaError - If no resource changes are specified.

Example:

python
# Increase CPU/memory on running sandbox (hot resize)
await sandbox.resize(Resources(cpu=4, memory=8))

# Change disk (sandbox must be stopped)
await sandbox.stop()
await sandbox.resize(Resources(cpu=2, memory=4, disk=30))

AsyncSandbox.wait_for_resize_complete

python
@intercept_errors(
    message_prefix="Failure during waiting for resize to complete: ")
@with_timeout()
@with_instrumentation()
async def wait_for_resize_complete(timeout: float | None = 60) -> None

Waits for the Sandbox resize operation to complete. Polls the Sandbox status until the state is no longer 'resizing'.

Arguments:

  • timeout Optional[float] - Maximum time to wait in seconds. 0 means no timeout. Default is 60 seconds.

Raises:

  • DaytonaError - If timeout is negative. If resize operation times out.

AsyncSandbox.create_ssh_access

AsyncSandbox.refresh_activity

python
@intercept_errors(message_prefix="Failed to refresh sandbox activity: ")
async def refresh_activity() -> None

Example:

python
await sandbox.refresh_activity()
