pyazureutils

pyazureutils is a collection of utilities for interacting with Microsoft Azure.

Overview

pyazureutils is available:

• install using pip from pypi: https://pypi.org/project/pyazureutils
• browse source code on github: https://github.com/microchip-pic-avr-tools/pyazureutils
• read API documentation on github: https://microchip-pic-avr-tools.github.io/pyazureutils
• read the changelog on github: https://github.com/microchip-pic-avr-tools/pyazureutils/blob/main/CHANGELOG.md

Usage

pyazureutils is intended as a library as well as a stand-alone CLI. Its primary consumer is iotprovision. The CLI requires that the Azure CLI ('az') is installed.

Command-line interface

pyazureutils CLI is invoked with one command, one action and optional switches. See help and examples below for more details.

Getting help:

pyazureutils --help

Getting command-specific help (iotcentral command):

pyazureutils iotcentral --help

pyazureutils can optionally select the subscription to use:

Example:

pyazureutils --subscription "My Azure" iotcentral register-device

iotcentral command

The iotcentral command supports device registration with Azure IoT Central

Example:

pyazureutils iotcentral register-device

Device registration can optionally include the switches:

--application-name <application name (URL) to register with>
--display-name <display name to use for the device registration>
--certificate-file <certificate to use for registration, if not read from a kit>
--device-template-name <device template to use for registration>

Example:

pyazureutils --subscription "My Azure" iotcentral register-device --app custom-227clcx93h8 --template "PIC-IoT WM" --display-name "My PIC-IoT Kit"

Logging

This package uses the Python logging module for publishing log messages to library users. A basic configuration can be used (see example below), but for best results a more thorough configuration is recommended in order to control the verbosity of output from dependencies in the stack which also use logging.

import logging
logging.basicConfig(format="%(levelname)s: %(message)s", level=logging.WARNING)

Dependencies

This package uses pyedbglib through other libraries for USB communications. For more information see: https://pypi.org/project/pyedbglib/.

Versioning

pyazureutils version can be determined by:

from pyazureutils.version import VERSION as pyazureutils_version
print("pyazureutils version {}".format(pyazureutils_version))
