cs3client 1.6.0

CS3 client for Python

CS3Client

CS3Client is a Python client for interacting with the CS3 (Cloud Sync&Share Storage) APIs. It allows users to seamlessly communicate with cloud storage services that support CS3 protocols, enabling file management, data transfer, and other cloud-based operations.

Features

• Simple and easy-to-use API client for CS3 services.
• Support for common file operations (read, write, delete, rename, ...).
• Support for common lock operations (set lock, get lock, unlock, ...).
• Support for common share operations (create share, update share, delete share, ...).
• Support for common user operations (get user, find users, get user groups, ...).
• support for common group operations (get group, find group, has member, ...).
• Support for restoring files through checkpoints (restore file version, list checkpoints).
• Support for applications (open in app, list app providers).
• Authentication and authorization handling.
• Cross-platform compatibility.
• Detailed error handling and logging.

Installation

To install cs3client, you need to have Python 3.7+ installed. You can install the package via pip:

pip install cs3client

Alternatively, you can clone this repository and install manually:

git clone [e-mail]:cs3org/cs3-python-client.git
cd cs3-python-client
pip install . 

Configuration

CS3Client can be configured by passing specific parameters when initializing the client through a ConfigParser instance.

• host

Optional (parameter - default)

• chunk_size - 4194384
• grpc_timeout - 10
• http_timeout - 10
• tus_enabled - False
• ssl_enabled - False
• ssl_client_cert - None
• ssl_client_key - None

Usage

To use cs3client, you first need to import and configure it. Here's a simple example of how to set up and start using the client. For configuration see Configuration. For more in depth examples see cs3-python-client/examples/.

Initilization and Authentication

import logging
import configparser
from cs3client.cs3client import CS3Client
from cs3client.auth import Auth

config = configparser.ConfigParser()
with open("default.conf") as fdef:
    config.read_file(fdef)
log = logging.getLogger(__name__)

client = CS3Client(config, "cs3client", log)
auth = Auth(client)
# Set the client id (can also be set in the config)
auth.set_client_id("<your_client_id_here>")
# Set client secret (can also be set in config)
auth.set_client_secret("<your_client_secret_here>")
# Checks if token is expired if not return ('x-access-token', <token>)
# if expired, request a new token from reva
auth_token = auth.get_token()

# OR if you already have a reva token
# Checks if token is expired if not return (x-access-token', <token>)
# if expired, throws an AuthenticationException (so you can refresh your reva token)
token = "<your_reva_token>"
auth_token = Auth.check_token(token)

File Example

# mkdir
directory_resource = Resource(abs_path=f"/eos/user/r/rwelande/test_directory")
res = client.file.make_dir(auth.get_token(), directory_resource)

# touchfile
touch_resource = Resource(abs_path="/eos/user/r/rwelande/touch_file.txt")
res = client.file.touch_file(auth.get_token(), touch_resource)

# setxattr
resource = Resource(abs_path="/eos/user/r/rwelande/text_file.txt")
res = client.file.set_xattr(auth.get_token(), resource, "iop.wopi.lastwritetime", str(1720696124))

# rmxattr
res = client.file.remove_xattr(auth.get_token(), resource, "iop.wopi.lastwritetime")

# stat
res = client.file.stat(auth.get_token(), resource)

# removefile
res = client.file.remove_file(auth.get_token(), touch_resource)

# rename
rename_resource = Resource(abs_path="/eos/user/r/rwelande/rename_file.txt")
res = client.file.rename_file(auth.get_token(), resource, rename_resource)

# writefile
content = b"Hello World"
size = len(content)
res = client.file.write_file(auth.get_token(), rename_resource, content, size)

# listdir
list_directory_resource = Resource(abs_path="/eos/user/r/rwelande")
res = client.file.list_dir(auth.get_token(), list_directory_resource)


# readfile
file_res = client.file.read_file(auth.get_token(), rename_resource)

Lock Example

WEBDAV_LOCK_PREFIX = 'opaquelocktoken:797356a8-0500-4ceb-a8a0-c94c8cde7eba'


def encode_lock(lock):
    '''Generates the lock payload for the storage given the raw metadata'''
    if lock:
        return WEBDAV_LOCK_PREFIX + ' ' + b64encode(lock.encode()).decode()
    return None

resource = Resource(abs_path="/eos/user/r/rwelande/lock_test.txt")

# Set lock
client.file.set_lock(auth_token, resource, app_name="a", lock_id=encode_lock("some_lock"))

# Get lock
res = client.file.get_lock(auth_token, resource)
if res is not None:
    lock_id = res["lock_id"]
    print(res)

# Unlock
res = client.file.unlock(auth_token, resource, app_name="a", lock_id=lock_id)

# Refresh lock
client.file.set_lock(auth_token, resource, app_name="a", lock_id=encode_lock("some_lock"))
res = client.file.refresh_lock(
    auth_token, resource, app_name="a", lock_id=encode_lock("new_lock"), existing_lock_id=lock_id
)

if res is not None:
    print(res)

res = client.file.get_lock(auth_token, resource)
if res is not None:
    print(res)

res, _ = client.share.list_existing_public_shares(filter_list=filter_list)

res = client.share.get_public_share(auth.get_token(), opaque_id=share_id, sign=True)
