Go API client for vpn
POC Docs for VPN gateway as service
Overview
The IONOS Cloud SDK for GO provides you with access to the IONOS Cloud API. The client library supports both simple and complex requests.
It is designed for developers who are building applications in GO . The SDK for GO wraps the IONOS Cloud API. All API operations are performed over SSL and authenticated using your IONOS Cloud portal credentials.
The API can be accessed within an instance running in IONOS Cloud or directly over the Internet from any application that can send an HTTPS request and receive an HTTPS response.
Installing
Use go get to retrieve the SDK to add it to your GOPATH workspace, or project's Go module dependencies.
go get github.com/ionos-cloud/sdk-go-bundle/products/vpn.git
To update the SDK use go get -u to retrieve the latest version of the SDK.
go get -u github.com/ionos-cloud/sdk-go-bundle/products/vpn.git
Go Modules
If you are using Go modules, your go get will default to the latest tagged release version of the SDK. To get a specific release version of the SDK use @ in your go get command.
To get the latest SDK repository, use @latest.
go get github.com/ionos-cloud/sdk-go-bundle/products/vpn@latest
Environment Variables
Environment Variable | Description |
---|
IONOS_USERNAME | Specify the username used to login, to authenticate against the IONOS Cloud API |
IONOS_PASSWORD | Specify the password used to login, to authenticate against the IONOS Cloud API |
IONOS_TOKEN | Specify the token used to login, if a token is being used instead of username and password |
IONOS_API_URL | Specify the API URL. It will overwrite the API endpoint default value api.ionos.com . Note: the host URL does not contain the /cloudapi/v6 path, so it should not be included in the IONOS_API_URL environment variable |
IONOS_LOG_LEVEL | Specify the Log Level used to log messages. Possible values: Off, Debug, Trace |
IONOS_PINNED_CERT | Specify the SHA-256 public fingerprint here, enables certificate pinning |
⚠️ Note: To overwrite the api endpoint - api.ionos.com
, the environment variable $IONOS_API_URL
can be set, and used with NewConfigurationFromEnv()
function.
Examples
Examples for creating resources using the Go SDK can be found here
Authentication
Basic Authentication
- Type: HTTP basic authentication
Example
import (
"context"
"fmt"
"github.com/ionos-cloud/sdk-go-bundle/shared"
vpn "github.com/ionos-cloud/sdk-go-bundle/products/vpn"
"log"
)
func basicAuthExample() error {
cfg := shared.NewConfiguration("username_here", "pwd_here", "", "")
cfg.LogLevel = Trace
apiClient := vpn.NewAPIClient(cfg)
return nil
}
Token Authentication
There are 2 ways to generate your token:
Generate token using sdk for auth:
import (
"context"
"fmt"
"github.com/ionos-cloud/sdk-go-bundle/products/auth"
"github.com/ionos-cloud/sdk-go-bundle/shared"
vpn "github.com/ionos-cloud/sdk-go-bundle/products/vpn"
"log"
)
func TokenAuthExample() error {
authClient := auth.NewAPIClient(authApi.NewConfigurationFromEnv())
jwt, _, err := auth.TokensApi.TokensGenerate(context.Background()).Execute()
if err != nil {
return fmt.Errorf("error occurred while generating token (%w)", err)
}
if !jwt.HasToken() {
return fmt.Errorf("could not generate token")
}
cfg := shared.NewConfiguration("", "", *jwt.GetToken(), "")
cfg.LogLevel = Trace
apiClient := vpn.NewAPIClient(cfg)
return nil
}
Generate token using ionosctl:
Install ionosctl as explained here
Run commands to login and generate your token.
ionosctl login
ionosctl token generate
export IONOS_TOKEN="insert_here_token_saved_from_generate_command"
Save the generated token and use it to authenticate:
import (
"context"
"fmt"
"github.com/ionos-cloud/sdk-go-bundle/products/auth"
vpn "github.com/ionos-cloud/sdk-go-bundle/products/vpn"
"log"
)
func TokenAuthExample() error {
authClient := auth.NewAPIClient(authApi.NewConfigurationFromEnv())
cfg.LogLevel = Trace
apiClient := vpn.NewAPIClient(cfg)
return nil
}
Certificate pinning:
You can enable certificate pinning if you want to bypass the normal certificate checking procedure,
by doing the following:
Set env variable IONOS_PINNED_CERT=<insert_sha256_public_fingerprint_here>
You can get the sha256 fingerprint most easily from the browser by inspecting the certificate.
Depth
Many of the List or Get operations will accept an optional depth argument. Setting this to a value between 0 and 5 affects the amount of data that is returned. The details returned vary depending on the resource being queried, but it generally follows this pattern. By default, the SDK sets the depth argument to the maximum value.
Depth | Description |
---|
0 | Only direct properties are included. Children are not included. |
1 | Direct properties and children's references are returned. |
2 | Direct properties and children's properties are returned. |
3 | Direct properties, children's properties, and descendants' references are returned. |
4 | Direct properties, children's properties, and descendants' properties are returned. |
5 | Returns all available properties. |
Changing the base URL
Base URL for the HTTP operation can be changed by using the following function:
requestProperties.SetURL("https://api.ionos.com/cloudapi/v6")
Debugging
You can inject any logger that implements Printf as a logger
instead of using the default sdk logger.
There are log levels that you can set: Off
, Debug
and Trace
.
Off
- does not show any logs
Debug
- regular logs, no sensitive information
Trace
- we recommend you only set this field for debugging purposes. Disable it in your production environments because it can log sensitive data.
It logs the full request and response without encryption, even for an HTTPS call. Verbose request and response logging can also significantly impact your application's performance.
