Workspace Management

Workspaces are isolated development environments managed by Daytona. This guide covers how to create, manage, and remove workspaces using the SDK.

Creating Workspaces

Daytona SDK provides an option to create workspaces with default or custom configurations. You can specify the language, image, resources, environment variables, and volumes for the workspace.

Basic Workspace Creation

Python

from daytona_sdk import Daytona


daytona = Daytona()


# Create a basic workspace
workspace = daytona.create()


# Create a workspace with specific language
workspace = daytona.create(language="python")


# Create a workspace with custom ID
workspace = daytona.create(id="my-workspace")

TypeScript

import { Daytona } from '@daytona/sdk';


const daytona = new Daytona();


// Create a basic workspace
const workspace = await daytona.create();


// Create a workspace with specific language
const workspace = await daytona.create({ language: 'typescript' });


// Create a workspace with custom ID
const workspace = await daytona.create({ id: 'my-workspace' });

Managing Workspaces

Workspace Information

Daytona SDK provides methods to get information about a workspace, such as ID, root directory, and status.

Python

# Get workspace ID
workspace_id = workspace.id


# Get workspace root directory
root_dir = workspace.get_workspace_root_dir()

TypeScript

// Get workspace ID
const workspaceId = workspace.id;


// Get workspace root directory
const rootDir = await workspace.getWorkspaceRootDir();

Workspace Operations

Daytona SDK provides methods to perform operations on Workspaces, such as removing Workspaces.

Python

# Remove workspace
daytona.remove(workspace)

TypeScript

// Remove workspace
await daytona.remove(workspace);
