Welcome to the Python bindings to the Rackspace Cloud Backup API. These bindings will help you make the most of the Cloud Backup system and integrate it into your workflows.
Table of Contents
Features
Python 2.7 and 3.3+ supported
Easy to install (pip)
Easy to test (nose + tox)
- Designed to be easy to use with ipython
Tab-completion and smart introspection
verbs map to object functions: backup.start()
nouns map to object properties: backup.report
I’ll let the code speak for ease of use:
from rcbu.client.client import Client
from rcbu.client.connection import Connection
import rcbu.client.backup_configuration as backup_config
conn = Connection('username', apikey='981263y1hq82yh8y9q38q2')
client = Client(conn)
myconf = backup_config.from_file('backup_config.json', conn)
# Upload a new backup configuration to the Backup API
myconf.create()
backup = client.create_backup(myconf)
status = backup.start()
# block here until the backup completes
# polls once a minute by default
backup.wait_for_completion(poll_interval=.5)
# easy reporting and checking for success
report = backup.report
report.raise_if_not_ok()
Check out the backup_config.json
Install
Make sure you have libgmp, libssl, and the Python development headers installed:
sudo apt-get install libgmp-dev libssl-dev python-dev sudo apt-get install libgmp-dev libssl-dev python3-dev # for Py3
On Windows, make sure that the proper Visual Studio path is configured:
SET VS90COMNTOOLS=%VS100COMNTOOLS% # MSVS 2010 SET VS90COMNTOOLS=%VS110COMNTOOLS% # MSVS 2012
pip install git+https://github.com/rackerlabs/python-cloudbackup-sdk
Contributing
Some simple guidelines:
Unit tests for new features
Keep the code clean - flake8
Be wary of warnings and errors - pylint
>95% code coverage - keep it strong
Be Pythonic
