Installation

The package is available on pip. To install it in a virtualenv:

$ virtualenv my_virtualenv
$ source my_virtualenv/bin/activate
$ pip install scaleway-sdk

General principle

If you’re looking to send a GET HTTP request against our APIs, like:

GET <api_url>/foo/bar

you only need to call the following pythonic code:

>>> from scaleway.apis import DummyAPI
>>> DummyAPI().query().foo.bar.get()

The magic here lies in scaleway.apis.*API instances, which all have a query method returning a slumber.API object. The latter handling all the excruciating details of the requests.

Documentation

Even if this SDK is designed to be developer-friendly and aim for self-service discovery, it is still recommended to read the official API documentation.

And because most of the provided helpers takes the form of pre-configured Slumber objects, a good read of Slumber documention is encouraged as well.

The list of available resources per API can be found [on the Scaleway API repository](https://github.com/scaleway/api.scaleway.com/blob/master/README.md#apis)

Examples

• List your organizations:

>>> from scaleway.apis import AccountAPI
>>> api = AccountAPI(auth_token='')  # Set your token here!
>>> print api.query().organizations.get()
{u'organizations': [...]}

• List your organizations, but get a flask.Response object instead of a dict:

>>> from scaleway.apis import AccountAPI
>>> api = AccountAPI(auth_token='')  # Set your token here!
>>> resp = api.query(serialize=False).organizations.get()
>>> print type(resp)
<Response [200]>
>>> print resp.headers
{...}  # Response HTTP headers.
>>> print resp.links
{...}  # Parsed "Link" HTTP header, for pagination.
>>> print resp.json()
{u'organizations': [...]}

• List your servers:

>>> from scaleway.apis import ComputeAPI
>>> api = ComputeAPI(auth_token='')  # Set your token here!
>>> print api.query().servers.get()
{u'servers': [...]}
# Or choose your region, as in apis/api_compute.py
>>> api = ComputeAPI(region='ams1', auth_token='')  # Set your token here!
>>> print api.query().servers.get()
{u'servers': [...]}

• Get details of a server:

>>> from scaleway.apis import ComputeAPI
>>> api = ComputeAPI(auth_token='')  # Set your token here!
>>> server_id = ''  # Set a server ID here!
>>> print api.query().servers(server_id).get()
{u'server': {...}}

• Check if your token has the permission servers:read for the service compute for the organization 9a096d36-6bf9-470f-91df-2398aa7361f7:

>>> from scaleway.apis import AccountAPI
>>> api = AccountAPI(auth_token='')  # Set your token here!
>>> print api.has_perm(service='compute', name='servers:read',
...     resource='9a096d36-6bf9-470f-91df-2398aa7361f7')
False

Development

Assuming you are in a virtualenv:

$ pip install -e .
$ python -c 'from scaleway.apis import AccountAPI'
  # it works!

Test

To submit a patch, you’ll need to test your code against python2.7 and python3.4. To run tests:

$ pip install nose coverage pycodestyle pylint
$ python setup.py nosetests --with-coverage
  (...)
$ pycodestyle scaleway
  (...)
$ pylint scaleway
  (...)

• Coverage score should never be lower than before your patch.

• PEP8 should never return an error.

• Pylint score should never be lower than before your patch.

Alternatively, to run nosetests on both Python2.7 and Python3.4, you can run tox.

Alternative libraries / clients

We maintain a list of the current library/client implementations on the api.scaleway.com repository.
