Apache Libcloud driver for Kamatera

Installation

• Install Libcloud (Version 2.8.2 or higher)
• Install the driver, using the same Python interpreter that Libcloud was installed in:
  • pip install libcloud-driver-kamatera

Usage

Enabling API access

To allow API access to your Kamatera account, you first need to add an API key by visiting Kamatera Console and adding a new key under API Keys. Use the created key Client ID and Secret as the arguments to the driver constructor.

Instantiating a driver

from libcloud_driver_kamatera import get_node_driver

cls = get_node_driver()
driver = cls('KAMATERA API CLIENT ID', 'KAMATERA API SECRET')

Getting server options

Select a location

locations = {location.id: location for location in driver.list_locations()}
for location in locations.values():
    print(location)

# <NodeLocation: id=AS, name=Hong Kong, country=China
# <NodeLocation: id=CA-TR, name=Toronto, country=Canada
# <NodeLocation: id=EU, name=Amsterdam, country=The Netherlands
# <NodeLocation: id=EU-FR, name=Frankfurt, country=Germany

location = locations['US-NY2']

Create a node size object

# get the capabilities for this location

capabilities = driver.ex_list_capabilities(location)

# choose a cpu type

cpuTypes = {cpuType['id']: cpuType for cpuType in capabilities['cpuTypes']}
for cpuType in cpuTypes.values():
    print('%s: %s' % (cpuType['name'], cpuType['description']))

# Type B - General Purpose: Server CPUs are assigned to a dedicated physical
#          CPU Thread with reserved resources guaranteed.
# Type D - Dedicated: Server CPU are assigned to a dedicated physical CPU Core
#          (2 threads) with reserved resources guaranteed.
# Type T - Burstable: Server CPUs are assigned to a dedicated physical CPU
#          thread with reserved resources guaranteed.
# Type A - Availability: Server CPUs are assigned to a non-dedicated physical
#          CPU thread with no resources guaranteed.

cpuType = cpuTypes['B']

# choose number of cpu cores

print(cpuType['cpuCores'])

# [1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36, 40, 48, 56, 64, 72]

# choose disk sizes

print(capabilities['diskSizeGB'])

# [5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 80, 100, 150, 200, 250, 300, 350, 400, 450,
#  500, 600, 700, 800, 900, 1000, 1500, 2000, 3000, 4000]

# primary disk size

diskSizeGB = 20

# additional disks (up to 3 additional disks)

extraDiskSizesGB = [100, 200]

# choose a billing cycle

billingCycle = driver.EX_BILLINGCYCLE_MONTHLY
# billingCycle = driver.EX_BILLINGCYCLE_HOURLY

# in case of monthly billing cycle, choose traffic package

print(capabilities['monthlyTrafficPackage'])

# {'b50': '50Mbit/sec unmetered on 10Gbit/sec port',
#  't5000': '5000GB/month on 10Gbit/sec port'}

monthlyTrafficPackage = 't5000'

# create node size object

size = driver.ex_get_size(ramMB, diskSizeGB, cpuType['id'], cpuCores,
                          extraDiskSizesGB=extraDiskSizesGB,
                          monthlyTrafficPackage=monthlyTrafficPackage)

Choose an OS image

images = {image.id: image for image in driver.list_images(location)}

for image in images.values():
    print('%s: %s' % (image.id, image.name))

# list is shortened, actual list will vary and provide more OS image options

image = images['US-NY2:6000C29a5a7220dcf84716e7bba74215']

Set network configurations (up to 4 interfaces can be added)

networks = []

Add a wan to get a public IP

networks.append({'name': 'wan', 'ip': 'auto'})

add a vlan interface to get a private IP (vlan network name and ip should be configured in the Kamatera console)

networks.append({'name': '12345-my-vlan', 'ip': 'auto'})

Create a server

node = driver.create_node(
    name='test_libcloud_server',
    size=size,
    image=image,
    location=location,
    ex_networks=networks,
    ex_dailybackup=False,  # create daily backups for the node?
    ex_managed=False,  # provide managed support for the node?
    ex_billingcycle=billingCycle
)

Get the SSH connection details

print('root@%s  /  %s' % (node.public_ips[0],
                          node.extra['generated_password']))

Server operations

List all nodes (quick operation, provides only basic details for each node)

nodes = driver.list_nodes()

Get more details for a specific node

node = driver.list_nodes(ex_id=nodes[0].id)[0]
print(node)

List nodes with full details based on regex of node name

nodes = driver.list_nodes(ex_name_regex='test_libcloud.*')
print(nodes[0])

# <Node: uuid=9566552b254b42063e87ba644a982d330602b06c,
#        name=test_libcloud_server, state=RUNNING,
#        public_ips=['138.128.241.118'], private_ips=[], provider=Kamatera

print(nodes[0].extra)

# {'billingcycle': 'monthly', 'priceOn': '25', 'priceOff': '25',
#  'location': <NodeLocation: id=US-NY2>, 'dailybackup': False,
#  'managed': False}

list all nodes with full details (slower operation)

nodes = driver.list_nodes(ex_full_details=True)
node = nodes[0]

run operations

driver.start_node(node)
driver.stop_node(node)
driver.reboot_node(node)
driver.destroy_node(node)
