GA4GH TRS Client

TRS-cli

Client for implementations of the Global Alliance for Genomics and Health (GA4GH) Tool Registry Service API schema, including support for additional endpoints defined in ELIXIR Cloud & AAI's generic TRS-Filer TRS implementation.

Usage

To use the client import it as follows in your Python code after installation:

Create client instance

Via TRS hostname

A client instance can be created by specifying the domain name of a TRS instance, including the URL schema:

from trs_cli.client import TRSClient

client = TRSClient(uri="https://my-trs.app")
# Client instantiated for URL: https://my-trs.app:443/ga4gh/trs/v2

Fully spec-compliant TRS implementations will always be available at https URLs, served at port 443 and at the base path ga4gh/trs/v2. However, to allow the client to be used against development versions of TRS implementations, http URLs are supported as well (default port 80), and the port and base path at which the API endpoints are served can be overridden with the port and base_path arguments:

from trs_cli.client import TRSClient

client = TRSClient(
    uri="http://my-trs.app",
    port=8080,
    base_path="my/api/route",
)
# Client instantiated for URL: http://my-trs.app:8080/my/api/route

Via TRS URI

Clients can also be created by passing a hostname-based TRS URI:

from trs_cli.client import TRSClient

client = TRSClient(uri="trs://my-trs.app/SOME_TOOL")
# Client instantiated for URL: https://my-trs.app:443/ga4gh/trs/v1

NOTE: Only the hostname part of the TRS URI is evaluated, not the tool ID.

Port and base path can be overridden as described above. In addition, the client constructor also defines the use_http flag, which instantiates a client for an http URL when a TRS URI is passed. The flag has no effect when a TRS hostname URL is provided instead of a TRS URI:

from trs_cli.client import TRSClient

client = TRSClient(
    uri="trs://my-trs.app/SOME_TOOL",
    use_http=True,
)
# Client instantiated for URL: http://my-trs.app:443/ga4gh/trs/v1

Access endpoints

NOTES:

• All endpoint access methods require a client instance.
• For accessing endpoints that require authorization, see the dedicated section.
• Responses that do not return the tool ID as a single string return Pydantic models instead. If dictionaries are preferred instead, they can be obtained with response.dict(). See the Pydantic export documentation for further details.

Authorization

Authorization bearer tokens can be provided either during client instantiation or when calling an endpoint access method. The bearer token is sent along as an Authorization header with every request sent from the instantiated client instance.

NOTE: Whenever a token is specified when calling an API endpoint, the token variable of that particular client instance is overridden. Thus, subsequent calls from that client will all carry the new token value, unless overridden again.

The following example illustrates this behavior:

from trs_cli.client import TRSClient

# No token passed during client instantiation
client = TRSClient(uri="https://my-trs.app")
# Value of client.token: None

# Token passed during client instantiation
client_2 = TRSClient(
    uri="https://my-trs.app",
    token="MyT0k3n",
)
# Value of client_2.token: MyT0k3n

Automatically built API documentation is available.
