The main FMClient class#

The REST API Python client makes it easy to write client programs for the Fleet Manager REST API in Python. The REST API Python client is in the dataikuapi Python package.

The client is the entrypoint for many of the capabilities listed in this chapter.

Creating a Fleet Manager client#

To work with the API, a connection needs to be established with Fleet Manager, by creating an FMClient object. Once the connection is established, the FMClient object serves as the entry point to the other calls.

Depending on your cloud provider, you will have to create the dedicated FMClient:

  • a FMClientAWS for Amazon Web Services

  • a FMClientAzure for Microsoft Azure

  • a FMClientGCP for Google Cloud Platform

To connect you will need to provide the URL of your Fleet Manager server, and a key identifier and secret

import dataikuapi

key_id = "<my key id>"
key_secret = "<my key secret>"

client = dataikuapi.FMClientAWS("https://localhost", key_id, key_secret)

client = dataikuapi.FMClientAzure("https://localhost", key_id, key_secret)

client = dataikuapi.FMClientGCP("https://localhost", key_id, key_secret)

# client is now a FMClient and can perform all authorized actions.
# For example, list the DSS instances in the fleet for which you have access
client.list_instances()
