pydex
Python client for the Data Exchange Server REST service provided by ADAMS.
Example usage
In the following example, a file is uploaded to the server. Then, the data is downloaded from the server using the obtained token. Lastly, the data is removed from the server using the token again.
from pydex import upload_file, download, remove
# upload a file
token = upload_file("/some/where/file.txt", "http://localhost:8080/upload")
print("token for upload", token)
# download data associated with token
data = download(token, "http://localhost:8080/download")
print("data received for token", token)
print(data.decode())
# remove data from server
code = remove(token, "http://localhost:8080/remove")
print("status code for removing token", token, "is", code)Authentication
Depending on the DEX backend in use, you might have to provide credentials
as well in your calls. For instance, when using the BasicAuthentication
backend, you can provide user/password in your calls like this:
from pydex import upload_file, download, remove
params = {
'user': 'someuser',
'password': 'itspassword'
}
token = upload_file("/some/where/file.txt", "http://localhost:8080/upload", params=params)
print("token for upload", token)Installation
pip install pydex-client
