Basic usage

The following sections show how to import PyHPS Data Transfer and use some basic capabilities.

Request access token

The client library requires an access token to connect to the HPS Data Transfer service.

from ansys.hps.data_transfer.client.authenticate import authenticate

auth_url = "https://localhost:8443/hps/auth/realms/rep"

token = authenticate(username="repadmin", password="repadmin", verify=False, url=auth_url)
token = token.get("access_token", None)

Connect to data transfer service client

After obtaining the access token, you can connect to the data transfer service client:

from ansys.hps.data_transfer.client import Client    # Import the Client class
dt_url = f"https://localhost:8443/hps/dt/api/v1"
client = Client()   # Create a client object
client.binary_config.update(verbosity=3, debug=True, insecure=True, token=token, data_transfer_url=dt_url, log=True)
client.start()

api = DataTransferApi(client)
api.status(wait=True)
