# The SoftLayer API client package is here:
import SoftLayer
import pprint
# Usage:
# SoftLayer.Client(username=[Username], api_key=[API key])
#
# Username: Your SoftLayer API username.
# API key: Your SoftLayer API key,
username = 'SET ME'
api_key = 'SET ME'
client = SoftLayer.Client(username=username, api_key=api_key)
# Once your client object is created you can call API methods for that service
# directly against your client object. Each call may throw an raise a
# SoftLayerError exception.
#
# This example calls the getObject() method in the SoftLayer_Account API
# service. <http://sldn.softlayer.com/wiki/index.php/SoftLayer_Account::getObject>
# It retrieves basic account information, and is a great way to test your API
# account and connectivity.
pprint.pprint(client['Account'].getObject())
# For a more complex example we’ll retrieve a support ticket with id 123456
# along with the ticket’s updates, the user it’s assigned to, the servers
# attached to it, and the datacenter those servers are in. We’ll retrieve our
# extra information using a nested object mask. After we have the ticket we’ll
# update it with the text ‘Hello!’.
# Retrieve the ticket record.
ticket = client['Ticket'].getObject(
id=123456, mask='updates,assignedUser,attachedHardware.datacenter')
pprint.pprint(ticket)
# Now update the ticket.
update = client['Ticket'].addUpdate(id=123456, {'entry': 'Hello!'})
pprint.pprint(update)
