netauth 0.1.0

netauth-python

A NetAuth client library for Python.

Installation

pip install netauth

Usage

netauth-python centers around the NetAuth object:

na = netauth.NetAuth("netauth.example.org")

try:
    resp = na.system_status()
    print(resp)
except netauth.error.NetAuthRpcError as e:
    print(f"Request failed: {e}")

na.close()

NetAuth can also be used as a context manager and be initialized from a NetAuth configuration file:

with netauth.NetAuth.with_config(Path("/etc/netauth/config.toml")) as na:
    try:
        resp = na.system_status()
        print(resp)
    except netauth.error.NetAuthRpcError as e:
        print(f"Request failed: {e}")

For interactive or dynamic applications, operations that require authentication can use a callback to retrieve the user's secret:

def secret_cb() -> str:
    return getpass(prompt="Secret: ")

with netauth.NetAuth("netauth.example.org", entity="demo", secret=secret_cb) as na:
    try:
        na.entity_kv_add("demo", "foo", ["bar", "baz"])
    except error.NetAuthRpcError as e:
        print(e)
