Release v2.3.0 · Sage-Bionetworks/synapsePythonClient

Highlights

The index_files_for_migration and migrate_indexed_files functions are added to synapseutils to help migrate files in Synapse projects and folders between AWS S3 buckets in the same region. More details on using these utilities can be found here.
This version supports login programatically and from the command line using personal access tokens that can be obtained from your synapse.org Settings. Additional documentation on login and be found here.
```
# programmatic
syn = synapseclient.login(authToken=<token>)
```
```
# command line
synapse login -p <token>
```
The location where downloaded entities are cached can be customized to a location other than the user’s home directory. This is useful in environments where writing to a home directory is not appropriate (e.g. an AWS lambda).
```
syn = synapseclient.Synapse(cache_root_dir=<directory path>)
```
A helper method on the Synapse object has been added to enable obtaining the Synapse certification quiz status of a user.
```
passed = syn.is_certified(<username or user_id>)
```
This version has been tested with Python 3.9.
