Usage

Set up a virtual environment (virtualenv is used in these examples)

virtualenv -p /usr/local/bin/python3 venv
source venv/bin/activate

Install supporting packages

Install from PyPi

pip install fabric-comanage-api

OR

Install for Local Development

pip install -r requirements.txt

Configure your environment

Create a .env file from the included template if you don't want to put the API credentials in your code. Example code makes use of python-dotenv

cp template.env .env

Configure .env based on your COmanage Registry settings

# COmanage API user and pass
COMANAGE_API_USER=co_123.api-user-name
COMANAGE_API_PASS=xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx
# COmanage CO Information
COMANAGE_API_CO_NAME=RegistryName
COMANAGE_API_CO_ID=123
# COmanage registry URL
COMANAGE_API_URL=https://FQDN_OF_REGISTRY
# COmanage SshKeyAuthenticatorId (optional)
COMANAGE_API_SSH_KEY_AUTHENTICATOR_ID=123

Example Code

See code in examples for a demonstration of how to use each endpoint

SSH Key Authenticator Plugin

The SSH Key Authenticator plugin manages SSH Public Keys for CO People.

• The SSH Key Authenticator plugin is available as of Registry v3.3.0. Prior to this version, SSH Key management is available via the CO Person canvas.

After registration you can find the value for COMANAGE_API_SSH_KEY_AUTHENTICATOR_ID in the URL for editing the Authenticator:

• It would be 3 in this example URL: https://registry.cilogon.org/registry/authenticators/edit/3

NOTE:

• Experimental

  • The SshKey API is implemented via the SSH Key Authenticator Plugin. REST APIs provided by plugins are currently considered Experimental, and as such this interface may change without notice between minor releases.

• Implementation Notes

  • Only JSON format is supported. XML format is not supported.
  • Note the URLs for this API use plugin syntax. (There is an extra component to the path.)
  • As defined in the SshKey Schema, an SSH Key Authenticator ID is required as part of the request. This refers to the Authenticator instantiated for the CO.
  • Authenticators that are locked cannot be managed by the API.

Adding a new SSH Key Authenticator in COmanage

To create a new SSH Key Authenticator first select the "Authenticators" option from the COmanage configuraiton page

Next select the "Add Authenticator" option

Populate the required fields and set Status to "Active" and "Add" the Authenticator

Upon success a green box will denote the new Authenticator has been added

Now when choosing the "Authenicators" option from the COmanage configuration page you should see your newly created Authenticator

Pressing the "Edit" option will display the fields for the Authenticator along with its SshKeyAuthenticatorId value in the URL (3 in this example)
