[!NOTE]
The@e2b/code-interpreterande2b-code-interpreterSDK sources now live in the E2B monorepo, underpackages/code-interpreter-jsandpackages/code-interpreter-python. Open SDK issues and pull requests there. This repository keeps the sandbox template and the chart data extractor.
What is E2B?
E2B is an open-source infrastructure that allows you to run AI-generated code in secure isolated sandboxes in the cloud. To start and control sandboxes, use our JavaScript SDK or Python SDK.
Run your first Sandbox
1. Install SDK
JavaScript / TypeScript
npm i @e2b/code-interpreter
Python
pip install e2b-code-interpreter
2. Get your E2B API key
- Sign up to E2B here.
- Get your API key here.
- Set environment variable with your API key.
E2B_API_KEY=e2b_***
3. Execute code with code interpreter inside Sandbox
JavaScript / TypeScript
import { Sandbox } from '@e2b/code-interpreter'
const sbx = await Sandbox.create()
await sbx.runCode('x = 1')
const execution = await sbx.runCode('x+=1; x')
console.log(execution.text) // outputs 2
Python
from e2b_code_interpreter import Sandbox
with Sandbox.create() as sandbox:
sandbox.run_code("x = 1")
execution = sandbox.run_code("x+=1; x")
print(execution.text) # outputs 2
4. Check docs
Visit E2B documentation.
5. E2B cookbook
Visit our Cookbook to get inspired by examples with different LLMs and AI frameworks.
Customizing the sandbox template
Need extra packages or a different runtime? You can build your own Code Interpreter sandbox template. See the template guide for a step-by-step walkthrough of creating, building, and using a custom template (as well as building the production code-interpreter-v1 template).
