Client for 3scale web service management system API

3scale integration plugin for Python applications. 3scale is an API Infrastructure service which handles API Keys, Rate Limiting, Analytics, Billing Payments and Developer Management. Includes a configurable API dashboard and developer portal CMS. More product stuff at http://www.3scale.net/, support information at http://support.3scale.net/.

Installation:

Standard distutils installation: unpack ThreeScale-2.0.tar.gz, and from ThreeScale-2.0 directory run

sudo python setup.py install

or you may put ThreeScalePY.py to the same directory as your program

libxml2 is required, if you are unable to install (as in Google AppEngine), please use the ElementTree branch.

Usage:

AuthRep, the recommended approach:

Doing an authrep for the AppId or OAuth authenthication patterns is as follows:

import ThreeScalePY
authrep = ThreeScalePY.ThreeScaleAuthRep(provider_key, app_id, app_key)
if authrep.authrep():
    # all was ok, proceed normally
else: # something was wrong
    sys.stdout.write(" reason = %s \n" % authrep.build_response().get_reason())

if you are using the UserKey auth pattern do this:

import ThreeScalePY
authrep = ThreeScalePY.ThreeScaleAuthRepUserKey(provider_key, user_key)
if authrep.authrep():
    # all was ok, proceed normally
else: # something was wrong
    sys.stdout.write(" reason = %s \n" % authrep.build_response().get_reason())

These examples are doing a default authrep call to the metric 'hits' with usage 1, you can pass several metrics by doing:

authrep.authrep({"hits": 10, "metric1": 12, ...}):

check the implementation and authrep's active docs for more parameters.

Authorize transactions:

ThreeScalePY.ThreeScaleAuthorize("provider key", "app id", "app key").authorize()

ThreeScalePY.ThreeScaleAuthorizeUserKey("provider key", None, None, "user key").authorize()

Report transactions:

ThreeScalePY.ThreeScaleReport("provider key").report([{"app_id":"app id", "usage":{"hits":1, "max_value":5}}]

OR

ThreeScalePY.ThreeScaleReport("provider key").report([{"user_key":"user key", "usage":{"hits":1, "max_value":5}}]
