IBM Cloud SDK for Power Cloud

The power-go-client project provides the Go SDK for IBM® Power Systems™ Virtual Server.

Prerequisites

• An IBM Cloud Account
• An IBM Cloud IAM API key or Token allow the SDK to access your account
• Go 1.17+
  • Homebrew
  • Source

Install

Install the SDK using the following methods.

go get command

Use this command to download and install the SDK to allow your Go application to use it:

go get -u github.com/IBM-Cloud/power-go-client

Go modules

If your application is using Go modules, you can add a suitable import to your Go application, like this:

import (
  "github.com/IBM-Cloud/power-go-client"
)

then run go mod tidy to download and install the new dependency and update your Go application's go.mod file.

dep dependency manager

If your application is using the dep dependency management tool, you can add a dependency to your Gopkg.toml file. Here is an example:

[[constraint]]
  name = "github.com/IBM-Cloud/power-go-client"
  version = "1.1.0"

then run dep ensure.

Usage

First you need to create a session and use it for creating the client.

import "github.com/IBM-Cloud/power-go-client/ibmpisession"

func main(){
    o := &ibmpisession.IBMPIOptions{
		Authenticator: authenticator,
		UserAccount:   accountID,
		Zone:          zone,
	}
    s, err := ibmpisession.NewIBMPISession(o)
    .....
}

Type IBMPIOptions required fields:

• Authenticator: Please check https://github.com/IBM/go-sdk-core/blob/main/Authentication.md for different options available for authenticating API calls.
• UserAccount: Account ID of the Power Cloud Service Instance.
• Zone: Location of the Power Cloud Service Instance.

Other optional fields:

• Debug: Enable/Disable http transport debugging log.
• Region: Region of the Power Cloud Service Instance. This is used for generating the default service URL. Deprecated: The region and endpoint is auto generated based on Zone.
• URL: Power Virtual Server host or URL endpoint. By default it uses power-iaas.cloud.ibm.com. In case of test environment you can set the value to power-iaas.test.cloud.ibm.com. You can also use env variable IBMCLOUD_POWER_API_ENDPOINT. Note that the region value is prepended to the host string if not present eg: <region>.power-iaas.cloud.ibm.com.

Also you can refer to the examples directory for some resources that shows how to use the SDK.
