Overview
========

The zhmcclient package (also known as python-zhmcclient) is a client library
written in pure Python that interacts with the Web Services API of the Hardware
Management Console (HMC) of `z Systems`_ or `LinuxONE`_ machines. The goal of
this package is to make the HMC Web Services API easily consumable for Python
programmers.

.. _z Systems: http://www.ibm.com/systems/z/
.. _LinuxONE: http://www.ibm.com/systems/linuxone/

The HMC Web Services API is the access point for any external tools to
manage the z Systems or LinuxONE platform. It supports management of the
lifecycle and configuration of various platform resources, such as partitions,
CPU, memory, virtual switches, I/O adapters, and more.

The zhmcclient package encapsulates both protocols supported by the HMC Web
Services API:

* REST over HTTPS for request/response-style operations driven by the client.
  Most of these operations complete synchronously, but some long-running tasks
  complete asynchronously.

* JMS (Java Messaging Services) for notifications from the HMC to the client.
  This is used for notification about changes in the system, or about
  completion of asynchronous tasks started using REST.

Installation
============

The quick way:

.. code-block:: bash

    $ pip install zhmcclient

For more details see the `Installation section`_ in the documentation.

.. _Installation section: http://python-zhmcclient.readthedocs.io/en/stable/intro.html#installation

Quickstart
===========

.. code-block:: python

    #!/usr/bin/env python

    import zhmcclient
    import requests.packages.urllib3

    # Set these variables for your environment:
    zhmc = "<IP address or hostname of the HMC>"
    userid = "<userid on that HMC>"
    password = "<password of that HMC userid>"

    requests.packages.urllib3.disable_warnings()

    session = zhmcclient.Session(zhmc, userid, password)
    client = zhmcclient.Client(session)

    vi = client.version_info()
    print("HMC API version: {}.{}".format(vi[0], vi[1]))

    print("Listing CPCs ...")
    cpcs = client.cpcs.list()
    for cpc in cpcs:
        print(cpc)

Documentation
=============

The zhmcclient documentation is on RTD:

* `Documentation for version on Pypi`_
* `Documentation for master branch in Git repo`_
