ultra-auth 0.1

A compact auth client for UltraDNS

ultra_auth

A compact Python client for managing a connection with the UltraDNS API. For the "official," and much more ambitious client, go here.

Features

• Support for authenticating with username and password, or directly with a bearer token.
• Automatic token refreshing when the token expires.
• Built-in handling of various content types.

Installation

You can easily install ultra_auth using pip:

pip install ultra_auth

Once installed, you can use the ultra_auth module in your Python scripts:

from ultra_auth import UltraApi
client = UltraApi(args)

Usage

Authenticating using Username and Password

client = UltraApi(your_username, your_password)

Authenticating using Bearer Token

client = UltraApi(your_bearer_token, use_token=True)

Authenticating using Bearer Token and Refresh Token

client = UltraApi(your_bearer_token, your_refresh_token, True)

Making API Calls

# Make a GET request
response = client.get("/ultra/api/endpoint")

# Make a POST request
response = client.post("/ultra/api/endpoint", payload={"key": "value"})

# ... similarly for PUT, PATCH, DELETE

Response Handling

The client can return data in the form of dictionaries, strings, or bytes depending on the response content type.

For example:

1. The zone export endpoint, when requesting more than one zone, will return a zip file
2. The zone export endpoint, when requesting one zone, returns a plain text response
3. Most endpoints return JSON

Note

Using a bearer token without a refresh token means the client state will expire in approximately 1 hour (assuming the token was just generated). Be warned.
