ECS Minion is deprecated. Please use python-ecsclient. https://github.com/EMCECS/python-ecsclient
Note: ECS is an EMC product, trademarked, copyrighted, etc.
This library follows the ECS API documentation located here.
Using this library is pretty straight forward. ECSMinion can be installed from PyPi:
$ pip install ecsminion
This library should be compatible with both Python 2.7.x and Python 3.4.x.
Creating an instance of the ECSMinion class allows the following arguments:
Name | Required | Default Value | Description |
---|---|---|---|
username |
No | None | The username used to fetch the ECS token |
password |
No | None | The password used to fetch the ECS token |
token |
No | None | Pass a token to ECSMinion (username/password are ignored then) |
ecs_endpoint |
Yes | None | The ECS API endpoint, ex: https://192.168.0.149:4443 |
token_endpoint |
Yes | None | The ECS API endpoint, ex: https://192.168.0.149:4443/login |
verify_ssl |
No | False | Whether to check a host's SSL certificate |
token_filename |
No | ecstoken.tkn |
The filename of the temporary token |
token_location |
No | /tmp |
The location to store the temporary token file |
request_timeout |
No | 15.0 | Stop waiting for a response after a given number of seconds, this is a decimal value. Ex: 10.0 is ten seconds |
cache_token |
No | True | Whether to cache the token, by default this is true you should only switch this to false when you want to directly fetch a token for a user |
Here is an example that goes through most of the API calls. Please note
that some calls take longer to complete than others. Sometimes you may
need to set your request_timeout
to 60.0
.

According to ECS API documentation, a call to POST /license
should contain
a payload like the following:
{ "license_feature": [ { "serial": "", "version": "", "issued_date": "", "expiration_date": "", "model": "", "product": "", "site_id": "", "issuer": "", "notice": "", "licensed_ind": "", "expired_ind": "", "license_id_indicator": "", "error_message": "", "storage_capacity_unit": "", "storage_capacity": "", "trial_license_ind": "" } ], "license_text": "" }
Thus, if you consume a JSON file with such license data, you may upload it
using the licensing.add_license()
method:
import json import pprint pp = pprint.PrettyPrinter() try: with open("ECS2.1_License.json") as data: license = json.load(data) pp.pprint(client.licensing.add_license(license)) except ValueError as val_ex: # includes simplejson.decoder.JSONDecodeError print("Couldn't parse JSON data: {0}".format(val_ex.message)) except ECSMinionException as ecsminion_ex: print('Message: {0}'.format(ecsminion_ex.message)) print('Status Code Returned: {0}\n'.format(ecsminion_ex.http_status_code)) print('ECS API Message: {0}'.format(ecsminion_ex.ecs_message)) except Exception as ex: print(ex.message)
ECSMinion leverages the Python logging
module. Enable it from your
application like so:
import logging # Default to INFO level logging logging.basicConfig() logging.getLogger().setLevel(logging.INFO)
Now ECSMinion will tell you about what it's doing (and so will the
requests
library). If you'd like even more information about the
HTTP requests and headers, use the following:
import logging import httplib # Default to DEBUG level logging logging.basicConfig() logging.getLogger().setLevel(logging.DEBUG) # Show HTTP headers and payloads httplib.HTTPConnection.debuglevel = 1
If you don't want to see any requests
logging, either filter it with
a logging
filter or change the logging level for just that library:
import logging # Default to INFO level logging logging.basicConfig() logging.getLogger().setLevel(logging.INFO) # Only show errors from requests lib logging.getLogger('requests.packages.urllib3').setLevel(logging.ERROR)
You pass an authentication token directly to ECSMinion which means you don't need to supply a username/password. Here is an example (the token has been shortened):
client = ECSMinion(token='ALAcbGZtbjh6eVB3eUF1TzFEZWNmc0M2VVl2QjBVPQM', token_endpoint='https://192.168.1.146:4443/login', ecs_endpoint='https://192.168.1.146:4443', request_timeout=15.0)
Fetching a token for a user can be done as follows by setting the
cache_token
parameter to false and then calling get_token
:
from ecsminion import ECSMinion, ECSMinionException if __name__ == "__main__": try: client = ECSMinion(username='someone', password='password', token=None, token_endpoint='https://192.168.1.146:4443/login', ecs_endpoint='https://192.168.1.146:4443', request_timeout=15.0, cache_token=False) print(client.get_token()) except ECSMinionException as ecsminion_ex: print('Message: {0}'.format(ecsminion_ex.message)) print('Status Code Returned: {0}\n'.format(ecsminion_ex.http_status_code)) print('ECS API Message: {0}'.format(ecsminion_ex.ecs_message)) except Exception as ex: print(ex.message)
