Almanach Python API
===================
.. module:: almanachclient
:synopsis: A python client for the Almanach API.
.. currentmodule:: almanachclient
Usage
-----
First, create an Almanach Client instance with your credentials::
>>> from almanachclient.v1.client import Client
>>> almanach = Client(ALMANACH_URL, AUTH_TOKEN)
Here ``ALMANACH_URL`` will be a string that represents the url of Almanach API.
``AUTH_TOKEN`` will be the authorization token you use to acces the API.
You can also create a Keystone Client instance and access the API with it::
>>> from almanachclient.keystone_client import KeystoneClient
>>> keystone_client = KeystoneClient(KEYSTONE_URL, USERNAME, PASSWORD, SERVICE, REGION)
>>> almanach_url = keystone_client.get_endpoint_url('admin')
In this case ``KEYSTONE_URL`` will be a string that represents the url of your keystone catalog.
The nature of ``USERNAME`` and ``PASSWORD`` speak for themselves. ``SERVICE`` will be a string
you use to identify the "almanach" service. ``REGION`` is used to determine which region the
"almanach" service is being used in.
Examples
--------
>>> import datetime
>>> from almanachclient.v1.client import Client
>>> start_date = datetime.datetime(2017, 01, 05)
>>> end_date = datetime.datetime(2017, 02, 05)
>>> almanach = Client('http://api.region.example.org', 'myApiAuthorizationToken')
>>> almanach.get_info()
>>> almanach.get_volume_types()
>>> almanach.get_volume_type('f1c2db7b-946e-47a4-b443-914a669a6673')
>>> almanach.create_volume_type('f1c2db7b-946e-47a4-b443-914a669a5555', 'VolumeTypeName')
>>> almanach.delete_volume_type('f1c2db7b-946e-47a4-b443-914a669a5555')
>>> almanach.get_tenant_entities('my-tenant-uuid', start_date, end_date)
>>> almanach.delete_instance('f1c2db7b-946e-47a4-b443-914a669a3333')
>>> almanach.update_instance_entity(instance_id='f1c2db7b-946e-47a4-b443-914a669a2222', start=start_date, end=end_date)
