CyPerf REST API

This package is a client API for the Keysight CyPerf Controller.

This is a full implementation of all features supported by CyPerf. It requires a minimum CyPerf version of 6.0.

Getting started

To connect to a controller running at https://my-controller, just run the following:

import cyperf

config = cyperf.Configuration(host="https://my-controller",
                              username="admin",
                              refresh_token="get a token from CyPerf UI > Gear > Offline Token")
# if you don't have a valid HTTPS certificate for controller, uncomment this line
# config.verify_ssl = False

client = cyperf.ApiClient(config)

sessions_api = cyperf.SessionsApi(client)

sessions = sessions_api.get_sessions()

sessions[0].config.config.traffic_profiles[0].name = "My API Traffic Profile"

Integrating in a regression

This package also includes a cyperf.utils component that can be used for easily writing scripts that can be run from a console and receive credentials through environment variables.

Say sample.py contains this code:

import cyperf

client = cyperf.utils.create_api_client_cli(verify_ssl=False)

sessions_api = cyperf.SessionsApi(client)

sessions = sessions_api.get_sessions()

sessions[0].config.config.traffic_profiles[0].name = "My API Traffic Profile"

You can then simply run this script like:

export CYPERF_OFFLINE_TOKEN="get a token from CyPerf UI > Gear > Offline Token"
python sample.py --controller my-controller --user admin
