name	contentstack-utils
description	Use for Stack initialization, queries, entries, assets, live preview, taxonomy, and variants in contentstack-python.

Contentstack CDA SDK – Contentstack Python CDA SDK

When to use

• Implementing or changing Stack, content-type, query, entry, or asset behavior.
• Working with live preview, taxonomy, global fields, variants, or image transforms.
• Assessing CDA API alignment or extending the public SDK surface.

Instructions

Stack entry

• Stack in contentstack/stack.py: validates api_key, delivery_token, environment; resolves region → host via ContentstackRegion; builds endpoint; wires HTTPSConnection with headers, timeout, urllib3.Retry, and optional live_preview / branch / early_access.

Features

• Content types & entries — contenttype.py, entry.py, entryqueryable.py.
• Queries — basequery.py, query.py; chain methods align with CDA query parameters.
• Assets — asset.py, assetquery.py.
• Taxonomy, global fields, variants, image transform — taxonomy.py, globalfields.py, variants.py, image_transform.py.
• Sync — Stack.sync_init, pagination, sync_token → /stacks/sync via __sync_request.

Live preview

• live_preview dict (enable, host, authorization, etc.) merged in deep_merge_lp.py / stack setup; keep behavior aligned with tests/test_live_preview.py.

HTTP layer

• https_connection.py — requests.Session, HTTPAdapter, get_request from controller.py; user-agent uses contentstack.__title__ / __version__.

Extending

• Add query or stack methods consistent with CDA query parameters.
• Keep transport logic in HTTPSConnection / controller rather than duplicating requests setup.

Dependencies

• requests, urllib3 (Retry), python-dateutil
