Middleware API Client
Python client for the FAIRagro Middleware API with certificate-based authentication (mTLS).
Features
- ✅ Certificate-based authentication (mutual TLS)
- ✅ Configuration via YAML files, environment variables, or Docker secrets
- ✅ Async context manager support
- ✅ Comprehensive error handling
- ✅ Type-safe with Pydantic models
Installation
This package is part of the FAIRagro Advanced Middleware project and uses local dependencies.
Quick Start
1. Create Configuration File
# config.yaml
log_level: INFO
api_url: https://your-api-server:8000
client_cert_path: /path/to/client-cert.pem
client_key_path: /path/to/client-key.pem
ca_cert_path: /path/to/ca-cert.pem # optional
timeout: 30.0
verify_ssl: true
2. Use the Client
import asyncio
from pathlib import Path
from arctrl import ARC, ArcInvestigation
from middleware.api_client import Config, ApiClient
async def main():
# Load configuration
config = Config.from_yaml_file(Path("config.yaml"))
# Create ARC object
inv = ArcInvestigation.create(identifier="my-arc", title="My ARC")
arc = ARC.from_arc_investigation(inv)
# Use client with context manager
async with ApiClient(config) as client:
# Send a single ARC
response = await client.create_or_update_arc(
rdi="my-rdi",
arc=arc, # Can be ARC object, dict, or JSON string
)
print(f"ARC status: {response.status}")
# Or run a harvest workflow
async def arc_stream():
yield arc # Can yield ARC objects, dicts, or JSON strings
harvest = await client.harvest_arcs(
rdi="my-rdi",
arcs=arc_stream(),
expected_datasets=1,
)
print(f"Harvest status: {harvest.status}")
asyncio.run(main())
Configuration Options
| Option | Type | Required | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
log_level |
string | No | INFO | Logging level (DEBUG, INFO, WARNING, ERROR, CRITICAL) |
api_url |
string | Yes | - | Base URL of the Middleware API |
client_cert_path |
string | No | null | Path to client certificate (PEM format) |
client_key_path |
string | No | null | Path to client private key (PEM format) |
ca_cert_path |
string | No | null | Path to CA certificate for server verification |
timeout |
float | No | 30.0 | Request timeout in seconds |
verify_ssl |
bool | No | true | Enable SSL certificate verification |
max_concurrency |
int | No | 10 | Maximum concurrent API requests (also default for harvest_arcs) |
API Methods
create_or_update_arc(rdi: str, arc: ARC | dict | str) -> ArcResult
Create or update one ARC in the Middleware API.
Parameters:
rdi(str): The RDI identifier (e.g., "edaphobase").arc(ARC | dict | str): ARC object from arctrl, pre-serialised RO-Crate dict, or JSON string.
Returns:
ArcResult: Contains the result of the operation.
Raises:
ApiClientError: If the request fails due to HTTP errors, network issues, or invalid JSON.
Example:
from arctrl import ARC, ArcInvestigation
inv = ArcInvestigation.create(identifier="my-arc-001", title="My ARC")
arc = ARC.from_arc_investigation(inv)
response = await client.create_or_update_arc(
rdi="edaphobase",
arc=arc, # Can also be dict or JSON string
)
harvest_arcs(rdi: str, arcs: AsyncIterator[ARC | dict | str], expected_datasets: int | None = None) -> HarvestResult
Convenience workflow to create a harvest, upload all ARCs from an async iterator, and complete the harvest.
- Uses
config.max_concurrencyby default. - Continues on item-level submission errors and skips failed items.
- Cancels the harvest only for catastrophic errors.
- Supports ARC objects, pre-serialised RO-Crate dicts, and JSON strings.
All errors are raised as ApiClientError exceptions:
from middleware.api_client import ApiClientError
try:
response = await client.create_or_update_arc(
rdi="my-rdi",
arc=arc, # Can be ARC object, dict, or JSON string
)
except ApiClientError as e:
print(f"API Error: {e}")
