Not able to specify region because of the Hyphen

[Vad1mo]

Trying to list the RDB instances but I have difficulties to specify the region. That -Hyphen seems to be the problem, but I am not Python expert enough figure out how to escape is correctly.

api = API(base_url="https://api.scaleway.com", auth_token="yo")
api.make_requests_session()
instances = api.query().rdb.v1.regions.fr-par1.instances.get()

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "executeOrder.py", line 11, in <module>
    instances = api.query().rdb.v1.regions.fr-par1.instances.get()
NameError: name 'par1' is not defined

Hello,

List rdb instances:

api = API(base_url="https://api.scaleway.com", auth_token="your_token")
instances = api.query().rdb.v1.regions.__call__('fr-par').instances.get()

The rdb product is regional, you can only use fr-par or nl-ams.

adding this to improve the documentation would be nice

Better, you can create your own RDBAPI (until they add it in the library):

from scaleway.apis import API


REGIONS = {
    'fr-par': {
        'url': 'https://api.scaleway.com/rdb/v1/regions/fr-par/',
    },
    'nl-ams': {
        'url': 'https://api.scaleway.com/rdb/v1/regions/nl-ams/',
    }
}


class RDBAPI(API):
    def __init__(self, **kwargs):
        region = kwargs.pop('region', None)
        base_url = kwargs.pop('base_url', None)

        assert region is None or base_url is None, \
            "Specify either region or base_url, not both."

        if base_url is None:
            region = region or 'fr-par'

            assert region in REGIONS, \
                "'%s' is not a valid Scaleway region." % region

            base_url = REGIONS.get(region)['url']

        super(RDBAPI, self).__init__(base_url=base_url, **kwargs)

Then use it as any other API:

>>> rdb = RDBAPI(auth_token='xx', region='fr-par')
# or
>>> rdb = RDBAPI(auth_token='xx', region='nl-ams')

>>> rdb.query().instances.get()
{'instances': [], 'total_count': 0}
