The DigitalOcean API allows you to manage Droplets and resources within the DigitalOcean cloud in a simple, programmatic way using conventional HTTP requests. The endpoints are intuitive and powerful, allowing you to easily make calls to retrieve information or to execute actions.
This library starts with a python wrapper for the API and aims to build tools to make it easier to manage, provision, and deploy to Digital Ocean.
Full featured: API wrapper covering the published DigitalOcean API v2
Tested: integration test coverage against most of the API
SSH integration: integrates paramiko
