tacPy
I don't know about you, but some things about the Talend Administration Center UI are obnoxious to do, or at least monotonous.
Fortunately there's an API, so I figure I'd cook up a Python library to work with it.
This thing isn't exactly polished, but it seems to do the trick.
API Documentation
This is what I got my start with:
Note that these reference version 6.3
Usage
Quick Example
Let's get a list of tasks:
tac = tacPy.Client(tac_host='your.tachost.com', tac_name='org.talend.administrator', auth_user='user@company.com', auth_pass='p4ssw0rd')
r = tac.endpoint.listTasks()
for task in r.json()['result']:
print('Project: {project} Task: {label} taskId: {id}'.format(project=task['projectName'], label=task['label'], id=task['id']))
Addtionally, the jr method is available, which returns the dict directly:
for task in tac.endpoint.listTasks.jr():
print('Project: {project} Task: {label} taskId: {id}'.format(project=task['projectName'], label=task['label'], id=task['id']))
Pass in params like so:
tl_req_obj = tac.endpoint.taskLog(taskId=123)
task_log_data = tac.endpoint.taskLog.jr(taskId=123)
The Details
When a Client object is initiated, the help API method is called and output is processed.
This builds a list of attributes under the endpoint attribute of the
Client object that represent the various methods available. Which can
then be called as shown in the example above.
Calling the Method object returns the response object that the
requests library emits. This also gets stored in the last_response
attribute for that particular object.
Specific parameters for the method are passed as arguments like so:
r = tac.endpoint.taskLog(taskId=25, lastExecution=True)
