Azure Data Box Edge Module for Go

The armdataboxedge module provides operations for working with Azure Data Box Edge.

Source code

Getting started

Prerequisites

• an Azure subscription
• Go 1.18 or above (You could download and install the latest version of Go from here. It will replace the existing Go on your machine. If you want to install multiple Go versions on the same machine, you could refer this doc.)

Install the package

This project uses Go modules for versioning and dependency management.

Install the Azure Data Box Edge module:

go get github.com/Azure/azure-sdk-for-go/sdk/resourcemanager/databoxedge/armdataboxedge

Authorization

When creating a client, you will need to provide a credential for authenticating with Azure Data Box Edge. The azidentity module provides facilities for various ways of authenticating with Azure including client/secret, certificate, managed identity, and more.

cred, err := azidentity.NewDefaultAzureCredential(nil)

For more information on authentication, please see the documentation for azidentity at pkg.go.dev/github.com/Azure/azure-sdk-for-go/sdk/azidentity.

Client Factory

Azure Data Box Edge module consists of one or more clients. We provide a client factory which could be used to create any client in this module.

clientFactory, err := armdataboxedge.NewClientFactory(<subscription ID>, cred, nil)

You can use ClientOptions in package github.com/Azure/azure-sdk-for-go/sdk/azcore/arm to set endpoint to connect with public and sovereign clouds as well as Azure Stack. For more information, please see the documentation for azcore at pkg.go.dev/github.com/Azure/azure-sdk-for-go/sdk/azcore.

options := arm.ClientOptions {
    ClientOptions: azcore.ClientOptions {
        Cloud: cloud.AzureChina,
    },
}
clientFactory, err := armdataboxedge.NewClientFactory(<subscription ID>, cred, &options)

Clients

A client groups a set of related APIs, providing access to its functionality. Create one or more clients to access the APIs you require using client factory.

client := clientFactory.NewUsersClient()

Fakes

The fake package contains types used for constructing in-memory fake servers used in unit tests. This allows writing tests to cover various success/error conditions without the need for connecting to a live service.

Please see https://github.com/Azure/azure-sdk-for-go/tree/main/sdk/samples/fakes for details and examples on how to use fakes.
