IonosEnterprise API Client Library for Python

Project description

Python SDK

Version: ionosenterprise-sdk-python 5.2.0

Table of Contents

Description

The IonosEnterprise SDK for Python provides you with access to the IonosEnterprise API. The client library supports both simple and complex requests. It is designed for developers who are building applications in Python.

This guide will walk you through getting setup with the library and performing various actions against the API.

The SDK for Python wraps the IonosEnterprise API. All API operations are performed over SSL and authenticated using your IonosEnterprise portal credentials. The API can be accessed within an instance running in IonosEnterprise or directly over the Internet from any application that can send an HTTPS request and receive an HTTPS response.

Getting Started

Before you begin you will need to have signed-up for a IonosEnterprise account. The credentials you setup during sign-up will be used to authenticate against the IonosEnterprise API.

Installation

The IonosEnterprise SDK for Python is available on PyPi. You can install the latest stable version using pip:

pip install ionosenterprise

Done!

Authenticating

Connecting to IonosEnterprise is handled by first setting up your authentication credentials.

from ionosenterprise.client import IonosEnterpriseService

client = IonosEnterpriseService(
    username='YOUR_USERNAME', password='YOUR_PASSWORD')

Replace the values for YOUR_USERNAME and YOUR_PASSWORD with the IonosEnterprise credentials you established during sign-up.

You can now use client for any future request.

Error Handling

The SDK will raise custom exceptions when the IonosEnterprise API returns an error. There are five exception types:

Exception HTTP Code Description
ICNotAuthorizedError 401 The supplied user credentials are invalid.
ICNotFoundError 404 The requested resource cannot be found.
ICValidationError 422 The request body includes invalid JSON.
ICRateLimitExceededError 429 The API rate limit has been exceeded.
ICError Other A generic exception for all other status codes.

Reference

This section provides details on all the available operations and the arguments they accept. Brief code snippets demonstrating usage are also included.

client is the IonosEnterpriseService class imported from ionosenterprise.client import IonosEnterpriseService

Depth

Many of the get_ or list_ operations will accept an optional depth argument. Setting this to a value between 0 and 5 affects the amount of data that is returned. The detail returned varies somewhat depending on the resource being queried, however it generally follows this pattern.

Depth Description
0 Only direct properties are included. Children are not included.
1 Direct properties and children's references are returned.
2 Direct properties and children's properties are returned.
3 Direct properties, children's properties, and descendant's references are returned.
4 Direct properties, children's properties, and descendant's properties are returned.
5 Returns all available properties.

This SDK sets the depth=1 by default as that works well in the majority of cases. You may find that setting depth to a lower or higher value could simplify a later operation by reducing or increasing the data available in the response object.

Data Centers

Virtual Data Centers (VDCs) are the foundation of the IonosEnterprise platform. VDCs act as logical containers for all other objects you will be creating, e.g., servers. You can provision as many VDCs as you want. VDCs have their own private network and are logically segmented from each other to create isolation.

List Data Centers

This operation will list all currently provisioned VDCs that your account credentials provide access to.

There are no request arguments that need to be supplied. You may supply the optional depth argument.

Name Required Type Description
depth no int An integer value of 0 - 5 that affects the amount of detail returned. See the Depth section.

Call list_datacenters:

response = client.list_datacenters()

Retrieve a Data Center

Pass the arguments to get_datacenter:

response = client.get_datacenter(datacenter_id='UUID')

Create a Data Center

Use this operation to create a new VDC. You can create a "simple" VDC by supplying just the required name and location arguments. This operation also has the capability of provisioning a "complex" VDC by supplying additional arguments for servers, volumes, LANs, and/or load balancers.

The following table describes the request arguments:

Name Required Type Description
datacenter yes object A Datacenter object describing the VDC being created.

Build the Datacenter resource object:

datacenter = Datacenter(

Note: You will need to provide either the image or the licence_type arguments when creating a volume. A licence_type is required, but if image is supplied, it is already set and cannot be changed. Either the image_password or ssh_keys arguments need to be supplied when creating a volume using one of the official IonosEnterprise images. Only official IonosEnterprise provided images support the ssh_keys and image_password arguments.


Update a Volume

You can update various attributes of an existing volume; however, some restrictions are in place:

You can increase the size of an existing storage volume. You cannot reduce the size of an existing storage volume. The volume size will be increased without requiring a reboot if the relevant hot plug settings (disc_virtio_hot_plug, disc_virtio_hot_unplug, etc.) have been set to true. The additional capacity is not added automatically added to any partition, therefore you will need to handle that inside the OS afterwards. Once you have increased the volume size you cannot decrease the volume size.

Since an existing volume is being modified, none of the request arguments are specifically required as long as the changes being made satisfy the requirements for creating a volume.

The following table describes the request arguments:

Name Required Type Description

Examples

Below are some examples using the SDK for Python. These examples will assume credentials are being set with environment variables:

export IONOS_USERNAME=username
export IONOS_PASSWORD=password

List All Data Centers

This simple example will list all data centers under an account.

#!/usr/bin/python

import json
import os

from ionosenterprise.client import IonosEnterpriseService

# Instatiate IonosEnterprise connection
client = IonosEnterpriseService(
    username=os.getenv('IONOS_USERNAME'),
    password=os.getenv('IONOS_PASSWORD'))

# List data centers
datacenters = client.list_datacenters()
print json.dumps(datacenters, indent=4)

Search for Images

The following example will provide a method for retrieving a list of images based on a partial case-insensitive name and location match.

#!/usr/bin/python

import os

from ionosenterprise.client import IonosEnterpriseService


def find_image(conn, name, location):
    '''
    Find image by partial name and location
    '''
    images = []
    for item in conn.list_images()['items']:
        if (item['properties']['location'] == location and
           item['properties']['imageType'] == 'HDD' and
           name.lower() in item['properties']['name'].lower()):
            images.append(item)
    return images

# Instantiate IonosEnterprise connection
client = IonosEnterpriseService(
    username=os.getenv('IONOS_USERNAME'),
    password=os.getenv('IONOS_PASSWORD'))

# Search criteria based on partial case-insensitive name and location
name = 'Ubuntu'
location = 'de/fkb'

# Find images based on above search criteria
for image in find_image(client, name, location):
    print "{0}\t{1}\t{2}".format(
        image['id'],
        image['properties']['name'],
        image['properties']['location'])

Reserve an IP Block

Here we will reserve a public IP block.

#!/usr/bin/python

import json
import os

from ionosenterprise.client import IonosEnterpriseService, IPBlock


# Instatiate IonosEnterprise connection
client = IonosEnterpriseService(
    username=os.getenv('IONOS_USERNAME'),
    password=os.getenv('IONOS_PASSWORD'))

ipblock = IPBlock(location='us/las', size=5)

response = client.reserve_ipblock(ipblock)

print json.dumps(response, indent=4)

Wait for Resources

The remaining examples will require dependent resources. A volume cannot be attached to a server before the server and volume are finished provisioning. Therefore, we require the wait_for_completion method that will stop and wait for the server and volume to finish provisioning before attaching the volume to the server.

Component Build

IonosEnterprise allows servers to be built by their individual components. That is, by connecting customized components such as servers, volumes, and NICs together. For example, a server can be provisioned in one request followed by one or more NICs and volumes in following requests. The volumes can then be attached separately to the server.

It is important to note that you will need to wait for each individual component to finish provisioning before it can be used in subsequent operations. This behavior is demonstrated below.

#!/usr/bin/python

import json
import os

from ionosenterprise.client import IonosEnterpriseService
from ionosenterprise.client import (
    Datacenter, LAN, Server, NIC, Volume, FirewallRule)

client = IonosEnterpriseService(
    username=os.getenv('IONOS_USERNAME'),
    password=os.getenv('IONOS_PASSWORD'))

timeout = 1800

# Create data center
datacenter = Datacenter(
    name='Python SDK Data Center',
    description='Python SDK data center',
    location='us/las')

response = client.create_datacenter(datacenter=datacenter)
client.wait_for_completion(response, timeout)
datacenter_id = response['id']

# Create public LAN
lan = LAN(name="Public LAN", public=True)

response = client.create_lan(datacenter_id, lan=lan)
client.wait_for_completion(response, timeout)
lan_id = response['id']

# Create server
server = Server(
    name='Python SDK Server',
    ram=4096,
    cores=4,
    cpu_family='INTEL_XEON')

response = client.create_server(datacenter_id=datacenter_id, server=server)
client.wait_for_completion(response, timeout)
server_id = response['id']

# Create public NIC
nic = NIC(
    name='Public NIC',
    dhcp=True,
    lan=lan_id,
    firewall_active=True,
    nat=False)

response = client.create_nic(
    datacenter_id=datacenter_id,
    server_id=server_id,
    nic=nic)
client.wait_for_completion(response, timeout)
nic_id = response['id']

# Create firwall rule
fwrule = FirewallRule(
    name='Allow SSH',
    protocol='TCP',
    source_ip='0.0.0.0',
    port_range_start=22,
    port_range_end=22,
    icmp_type=None)

response = client.create_firewall_rule(
    datacenter_id=datacenter_id,
    server_id=server_id,
    nic_id=nic_id,
    firewall_rule=fwrule)
client.wait_for_completion(response, timeout)

# Create system volume
volume1 = Volume(
    name='System Volume',
    size=20,
    image='0d4f97f0-1689-11e7-97ce-525400f64d8d',
    bus='VIRTIO',
    type='HDD',
    ssh_keys=['ssh-rsa AAAAB3NzaC1yc2EAAAADAQ...'],
    image_password='s3cr3tpass0rd',
    availability_zone='ZONE_3')

response = client.create_volume(
    datacenter_id=datacenter_id,
    volume=volume1)
client.wait_for_completion(response, timeout)
volume1_id = response['id']

# Attach system volume
response = client.attach_volume(
    datacenter_id=datacenter_id,
    server_id=server_id,
    volume_id=volume1_id)
client.wait_for_completion(response, timeout)

# Create data volume
volume2 = Volume(
    name='Data Volume',
    size=100,
    type='SSD',
    bus='VIRTIO',
    license_type='OTHER')

response = client.create_volume(
    datacenter_id=datacenter_id,
    volume=volume2)
client.wait_for_completion(response, timeout)
volume2_id = response['id']

# Attach data volume
response = client.attach_volume(
    datacenter_id=datacenter_id,
    server_id=server_id,
    volume_id=volume2_id)
client.wait_for_completion(response, timeout)

live_datacenter = client.get_datacenter(datacenter_id=datacenter_id, depth=5)
print json.dumps(live_datacenter, indent=4)

Composite Build

The IonosEnterprise platform also allows fully operational servers to be provisioned with a single request. This is accomplished by nesting related resources.

Multiple servers, volumes, LANs, and load balancers can be nested under a data center, multiple NICs and volumes can be nested under servers, and firewall rules under NICs.

This example will demonstrate composite resources.

#!/usr/bin/python

import json
import os

from ionosenterprise.client import IonosEnterpriseService
from ionosenterprise.client import Datacenter, Server, NIC, Volume, FirewallRule

# Instatiate IonosEnterprise connection
client = IonosEnterpriseService(
    username=os.getenv('IONOS_USERNAME'),
    password=os.getenv('IONOS_PASSWORD'))

# Define a firewall rule
fwrule1 = FirewallRule(
    name='Allow SSH',
    protocol='TCP',
    source_ip='0.0.0.0',
    port_range_start=22,
    port_range_end=22,
    icmp_type=None)

# Define a public NIC
nic1 = NIC(
    name='Public NIC',
    dhcp=True,

    nat=False)

# Define a private NIC

    name='Private NIC',
    dhcp=True,
    lan=2)

    name='System Volume',
    size=20,
    image='0d4f97f0-1689-11e7-97ce-525400f64d8d',
    bus='VIRTIO',
    type='HDD',
    ssh_keys=['ssh-rsa AAAAB3NzaC1yc2EAAAADAQ...'],
    image_password='s3cr3tpass0rd',
    availability_zone='ZONE_3')

# Define a data volume
volume2 = Volume(
    name='Data Volume',
    size=100,
    type='SSD',
    bus='VIRTIO',
    licence_type='OTHER')

# Define a server with associated NICs and volumes
server = Server(
    name='Python SDK Server',
    ram=4096,
    cores=4,
    cpu_family='INTEL_XEON',
    nics=[nic1, nic2],
    create_volumes=[volume1, volume2])

# Define a data center with the server
datacenter = Datacenter(
    name='Python SDK Data Center',
    description='Python SDK data center',
    location='us/las',
    servers=[server])

# Initiate the data center and nested resource provisioning
response = client.create_datacenter(datacenter)

# Wait for the data center and nested resources to finish provisioning
client.wait_for_completion(response)

datacenter_id = response['id']

# Set the first LAN to public
response = client.update_lan(
    datacenter_id=datacenter_id,
    lan_id=1,
    name='Public LAN',
    public=True)

client.wait_for_completion(response)

# Print the data center properties and nested resources
response = client.get_datacenter(datacenter_id=datacenter_id, depth=5)
print json.dumps(response, indent=4)
