Install from pip with pip install cloudpassage. If you want to make modifications to the SDK you can install it in editable mode by downloading the source from this github repo, navigating to the top directory within the archive and running pip install -e . (note the . at the end).

Quick Start

Here's the premise: you store your session configuration information (API credentials, proxy settings, etc) in the cloudpassage.HaloSession object. This object gets passed into the various class methods which allow you to interact with the CloudPassage Halo API.

Practical example: We'll print a list of all servers in our account:

import cloudpassage

api_key = MY_HALO_API_KEY
api_secret = MY_API_SECRET
session = cloudpassage.HaloSession(api_key, api_secret)
server = cloudpassage.Server(session)

list_of_servers = server.list_all()
for s in list_of_servers:
    print("ID: {}   Name: {}".format(s["id"], s["hostname"]))

v1.2.2 (2018-10-31)
-------------------

New
~~~
- Python 3.6.5 support. [Ash Wilson]


v1.2 (2018-10-28)
-----------------

New
~~~
- Python 3.7 support. [Ash Wilson]

Changes

Improved deduplication in TimeSeries class. [Ash Wilson]

Expanded deduplication routine to compare against prior batch of objects from API. In some extremely rare circumstances, multiple different events with the exact same timestamp would slip through the deduplication routine TimeSeries.remove_duplicate_items. This patch improves deduplication while still using the object's timestamp as a cursor.

Closes #142
Improve documentation of Server() instance methods. [Ash Wilson]

v1.1.5 (2018-09-15)

New

- Use connection pooling. [Ash Wilson]

  The SDK now uses connection pooling via the requests.Session() object. This
  brings performance benefits as the SDK will no longer need to open a new TLS
  connection for every interaction with the CloudPassage API.

  Connection pool minimum of 1, max of 10 concurrent connections in session.
  Closes #112

  Exponential backoff implemented via requests, 5 tries max.

  Retry happens in requests via HTTPAdapter for everything but re-auth, which is caught and retried in SDK.
  Closes #113

  Migrated CI testing environment.
  Closes #114

Changes

Codeclimate coverage for master branch. [Ash Wilson]

Closes #121
Testing matrix includes Python2.7.10 and 2.7.15. [Ash Wilson]

We can add more over time, as the need arises. Adding another version of Python adds around 12 minutes to total CI time per commit, and tests cannot be run in parallel. Closes #115
Updated requests version pin to >=2.18. [Ash Wilson]

Removed requirements.txt file, which was unnecessary. The setup.py file is used by easy_install to ensure dependencies are in place. Closes #118
