pyixapi

Python API client library for IX-API.

Supported versions are:

• version 1
• version 2

Installation

To install run pip install pyixapi.

Quick Start

To begin, import pyixapi and instantiate the API.

import pyixapi
ixapi = pyixapi.api(
    "https://api.de-cix.net/api/v1/",
    "3LH3G72VH7H1SGogEsFeQOPsGjOQotMUZQRt2pK7YbH",
    "cEtrt8s0vR0CsG0vpAmcaxtnolzZj7DEG0B7izvwPlV",
)
ixapi.authenticate()

The first argument the .api() method takes is the IX-API URL. The second and third arguments are the API key and secret used for authentication.

Authenticating will generate a pair of access and refresh tokens that can be passed as argument to the .api() method.

Queries

The pyixapi API is setup so that IX-API's endpoints are attributes of the .api() object. Each endpoint has a handful of methods available to carry out actions on the endpoint. For example, in order to query all the objects in the network-service-configs endpoint you would do the following:

>>> nsc = ixapi.network_service_configs.all()
>>> for i in nsc:
...     print(i)
...
