🚀 Quick Start

Installation

Install the package from PyPI:

pip install graphiant-sdk

Basic Usage

import graphiant_sdk
from graphiant_sdk.exceptions import (
    ApiException, BadRequestException, UnauthorizedException, 
    ForbiddenException, NotFoundException, ServiceException
)

# Create client configuration
config = graphiant_sdk.Configuration(
    host="https://api.graphiant.com",
    username="your_username",
    password="your_password"
)

# Initialize API client
api_client = graphiant_sdk.ApiClient(config)
api = graphiant_sdk.DefaultApi(api_client)

# Authenticate and get bearer token
auth_request = graphiant_sdk.V1AuthLoginPostRequest(
    username=config.username,
    password=config.password
)

try:
    auth_response = api.v1_auth_login_post(v1_auth_login_post_request=auth_request)
    bearer_token = f'Bearer {auth_response.token}'
    print(f"Authentication successful")
except Exception as e:
    print(f"Authentication failed: {e}")
    exit(1)

# Get device summary
try:
    edges_summary = api.v1_edges_summary_get(authorization=bearer_token)
    print(f"Found {len(edges_summary.edges_summary)} devices")
    
    for device in edges_summary.edges_summary:
        print(f"Device: {device.hostname}, Status: {device.status}")
        
except Exception as e:
    print(f"Failed to get device summary: {e}")

Device Configuration Management

# Verify device portal status before configuration

    for edge in edges_summary.edges_summary:
        if edge.device_id == device_id:
            if edge.portal_status == "Ready" and edge.tt_conn_count == 2:
                return True
            else:
                raise Exception(f"Device {device_id} not ready. "
                              f"Status: {edge.portal_status}, "
                              f"TT Connections: {edge.tt_conn_count}")
