ViperPy
=======

#### A Python library for interacting with the EMC ViPR API

**Note:** [ViPR](https://www.emc.com/vipr) is an EMC product, trademarked, copyrighted, etc.

Using this library is pretty straight forward. ViperPy can be installed from [PyPi](http://pypi.python.org/):


```
$ pip install viperpy
```

Creating an instance of the ViperPy class requires the following arguments:

Name | Required | Default Value | Description
:--- | :--- | :--- | :---
`username` | No | None | The username used to fetch the ViPR token
`password` | No | None | The password used to fetch the ViPR token
`token` | No | None | Pass a token to ViperPy (username/password are ignored then)
`vipr_endpoint` | Yes | None | The ViPR API endpoint, ex: `https://192.168.1.146:4443`
`token_endpoint` | Yes | None | The ViPR API endpoint, ex: `https://192.168.1.146:4443/login`
`verify_ssl` | No | False | Whether to check a host's SSL certificate
`token_filename` | No | `ViperPy.tkn` | The filename of the temporary token
`token_location` | No | `/tmp` | The location to store the temporary token file
`request_timeout` | No | 15.0 | Stop waiting for a response after a given number of seconds, this is a decimal value. Ex: 10.0 is ten seconds
`cache_token` | No | True | Whether to cache the token, by default this is true you should only switch this to false when you want to directly fetch a token for a user

Here is an example that goes through most of the API calls. Please note that some calls
take longer to complete than others. Sometimes you may need to set your `request_timeout` to `60.0`.

```
from viperpy import Viperpy, ViperpyException
from viperpy.util.common import get_formatted_time_string

try:
client = Viperpy(username='someone',
password='password',
token_endpoint='https://192.168.1.146:4443/login',
vipr_endpoint='https://192.168.1.146:4443',
request_timeout=15.0)

print(client.user_info.whoami())

print(client.user_info.get_tenant(username=None))

audit_time_bucket = get_formatted_time_string(2014, 12, 4, 0, None)
print(client.audit.get_audit_log(audit_time_bucket))

print(client.fabric_capacity.get_capacity())

print(client.disk.get_disks(maximum=-3, index=1))

single_disk_info = client.disk.get_disk_by_urn(
urn='urn:fabric:disk:00b0b99b-a395-4179-8838-f121b99061fb')
print(single_disk_info)

print(health_info)

print(client.upgrade.get_cluster_state(True))
print(client.upgrade.get_download_progress())

for tenant_id in tenants_list:
tenant_info = client.tenants.get_tenant(tenant_id)
print(tenant_info)
print(tenant_info['name'])

try:
subtenant = client.tenants.get_subtenants(tenant_id)
if subtenant:
print(subtenant)
except:
pass

# Beta Billing API:
print(client.billing.get_bucket_billing_info('namespace1', 'bucket1'))

except ViperpyException as viperpy_ex:
print('Message: {0}'.format(viperpy_ex.message))
print('Status Code Returned: {0}\n'.format(viperpy_ex.http_status_code))
print('ViPR API Message: {0}'.format(viperpy_ex.vipr_message))
except Exception as ex:

```

#### Example: Use a valid token instead of supplying a username and password

You pass an authentication token directly to ViperPy which means you
don't need to supply a username/password. Here is an example
(the token has been shortened):

```
client = Viperpy(token='DLAcbGZtbjh6eVB3eUF1TzFEZWNmc0M2VVl2QjBVPQM',
token_endpoint='https://192.168.1.146:4443/login',
vipr_endpoint='https://192.168.1.146:4443',
request_timeout=15.0)
```

#### Example: Create, list, and remove object users

```
from viperpy import Viperpy, ViperpyException


if __name__ == "__main__":
try:
client = Viperpy(username='someone',
password='password',
token=None,
token_endpoint='https://192.168.1.146:4443/login',
vipr_endpoint='https://192.168.1.146:4443',
request_timeout=15.0)

print(client.user_management.add_objectuser(user='mytest1', namespace='namespace1'))
print(client.user_management.get_objectusers())

# This next line won't print anything useful as the body is empty
# If an HTTP 200 is not returned an error with raise, otherwise you can
# assume that the call was successful
client.user_management.deactivate_objectuser(user='mytest1')
print(client.user_management.get_objectusers())

except ViperpyException as viperpy_ex:
print('Message: {0}'.format(viperpy_ex.message))
print('Status Code Returned: {0}\n'.format(viperpy_ex.http_status_code))
print('ViPR API Message: {0}'.format(viperpy_ex.vipr_message))
except Exception as ex:
print(ex.message)
```

#### Example: Fetching tokens

Fetching a token for a user can be done as follows by setting the `cache_token`
parameter to false and then calling `get_token`:

```
from viperpy import Viperpy, ViperpyException


if __name__ == "__main__":
try:
client = Viperpy(username='someone',
password='password',
token=None,
token_endpoint='https://192.168.1.146:4443/login',
vipr_endpoint='https://192.168.1.146:4443',
request_timeout=15.0,
cache_token=False)

print(client.get_token())

except ViperpyException as viperpy_ex:
print('Message: {0}'.format(viperpy_ex.message))
print('Status Code Returned: {0}\n'.format(viperpy_ex.http_status_code))
print('ViPR API Message: {0}'.format(viperpy_ex.vipr_message))
except Exception as ex:
print(ex.message)
```

#### Example: Removing a cached token

```
from viperpy import Viperpy, ViperpyException


if __name__ == "__main__":
try:
client = Viperpy(username='someone',
password='password',
token=None,
token_endpoint='https://192.168.1.146:4443/login',
vipr_endpoint='https://192.168.1.146:4443',
request_timeout=15.0,
cache_token=False)

print(client.remove_cached_token())

except ViperpyException as viperpy_ex:
print('Message: {0}'.format(viperpy_ex.message))
print('Status Code Returned: {0}\n'.format(viperpy_ex.http_status_code))
print('ViPR API Message: {0}'.format(viperpy_ex.vipr_message))
except Exception as ex:
print(ex.message)
```

## ViPR Beta APIs

Support has been added for the ViPR 2.1.1 (beta) release of the new Billing
and Soft Quota APIs.

## Running PEP8

There are some example JSON comments in the source code that are over the
allowed PEP8 length. You can ignore those by running:

```
$ pep8 --ignore=E501 .
