Usage

Create a Session object. Session object contains the Url and authentication information for the VMware vRealize Orchestrator appliance.

from vmwvro import Session

vro_url = 'https://some_vro_server:8281'
vro_usr = 'some_user'
vro_pwd = 'some_password'

session = Session(url=vro_url, username=vro_usr, password=vro_pwd)

Create a Client object and pass in the session object. Client object exposes methods to interact with VMware vRealize Orchestrator.

from vmwvro import Client

client = Client(session)

Start a workflow - without any parameters.

wf = client.get_workflow(workflow_id)

wf_run = wf.start()
print("Workflow state: %s" % wf_run.state)

Start a workflow - with parameters.

from vmwvro.workflows import WorkflowParameters

param = WorkflowParameters()
param.add(name="vmname", value="some_vm_name", _type="VC:VirtualMachine")
param.add(name="user", "some_user")

wf_run = wf.start(param)
print("Workflow state: %s" % wf_run.state)

Wait for a workflow to complete.

wf_run.wait_until_complete()
print("Workflow completed with state: %s" % wf_run.state)
