starlette_admin.export.ExportConfig
dataclass
Capacity and security limits for the export endpoint.
Attributes:
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
max_rows |
int | None
|
Maximum number of rows that may be exported in a single
request (default: 100,000). When the filtered row count exceeds
this limit, the endpoint returns HTTP 400 so you can narrow your
filter or request a scheduled export instead. Set to |
restrict_url_download |
bool
|
When |
max_download_size |
int | None
|
Maximum number of bytes to accept from a single
URL-only file download (default: 20 MB). Files whose response body
exceeds this limit are silently skipped with a warning so the export
still completes. Set to |
safe_download_url |
Callable[[str, Request], str | None] | None
|
Optional callback Typical use-cases:

starlette_admin.export.BaseExporter
Bases: ABC
Base class for all export-format implementations.
Sub-classes implement :meth:generate to produce format-specific bytes
from already-cleaned row data. This base class handles:
- replacing
FileInfodict values with their ZIP-relative paths (assets/<storage_name>/<key>) when any visible field has stored files, - downloading those files from their storage backends via
:meth:
~starlette_admin.storage.BaseStorage.read, - wrapping the format bytes and downloaded files in a ZIP archive.
Minimal sub-class example::
class CsvExporter(BaseExporter):
content_type = "text/csv"
extension = "csv"
async def generate(
self,
fields: list[BaseField],
rows: list[dict[str, Any]],
) -> bytes:
output = io.StringIO()
writer = csv.DictWriter(
output, fieldnames=[f.label or f.name for f in fields]
)
writer.writeheader()
for row in rows:
writer.writerow(
{(f.label or f.name): row.get(f.name, "") for f in fields}
)
return output.getvalue().encode()
ZIP layout when file fields are present::
export.csv ← the formatted data file
assets/
local/ ← storage name

build_response(ctx)
async
Build the HTTP :class:~starlette_admin.responses.Response for this export.
When any visible :class:~starlette_admin.fields.FileField column
carries stored file values, the response is a .zip archive with:
<filename>.<extension>: the formatted data file,assets/<storage>/<key>: one entry per unique stored file.
Otherwise, the format file is served directly with the appropriate
Content-Type and Content-Disposition headers.
