Go API client for ionoscloud

NOTE: Please consider using SDK Go v6 releases that are using IONOS Cloud API Version 6, the latest stable API version. New features and improvements will be integrated in IONOS Cloud API Version 6.

An enterprise-grade Infrastructure is provided as a Service (IaaS) solution that can be managed through a browser-based "Data Center Designer" (DCD) tool or via an easy-to-use API.

The API allows you to perform a variety of management tasks such as spinning up additional servers, adding volumes, adjusting networking, and so forth. It is designed to allow users to leverage the same power and flexibility found within the DCD visual tool. Both tools are consistent with their concepts and lend well to making the experience smooth and intuitive.

Overview

This API client was generated by the OpenAPI Generator project. By using the OpenAPI-spec from a remote server, you can easily generate an API client.

• API version: 5.0
• Package version: 1.0.0
• Build package: org.openapitools.codegen.languages.GoClientCodegen

Installation

Install the following dependencies:

go get github.com/stretchr/testify/assert
go get golang.org/x/oauth2
go get golang.org/x/net/context

Put the package under your project folder and add the following in import:

import sw "./ionoscloud"

To use a proxy, set the environment variable HTTP_PROXY:

os.Setenv("HTTP_PROXY", "http://proxy_name:proxy_port")

Configuration of Server URL

Default configuration comes with Servers field that contains server objects as defined in the OpenAPI specification.

Select Server Configuration

For using other server than the one defined on index 0 set context value sw.ContextServerIndex of type int.

ctx := context.WithValue(context.Background(), sw.ContextServerIndex, 1)

Note: To overwrite the API endpoint - api.ionos.com, the environment variable $IONOS_API_URL can be set, and used with NewConfigurationFromEnv() function.

Templated Server URL

Templated server URL is formatted using default variables from configuration or from context value sw.ContextServerVariables of type map[string]string.

ctx := context.WithValue(context.Background(), sw.ContextServerVariables, map[string]string{
	"basePath": "v2",
})

Note, enum values are always validated and all unused variables are silently ignored.

URLs Configuration per Operation

Each operation can use different server URL defined using OperationServers map in the Configuration. An operation is uniquely identified by "{classname}Service.{nickname}" string. Similar rules for overriding default operation server index and variables applies by using sw.ContextOperationServerIndices and sw.ContextOperationServerVariables context maps.

ctx := context.WithValue(context.Background(), sw.ContextOperationServerIndices, map[string]int{
	"{classname}Service.{nickname}": 2,
})
ctx = context.WithValue(context.Background(), sw.ContextOperationServerVariables, map[string]map[string]string{
	"{classname}Service.{nickname}": {
		"port": "8443",
	},
})

Documentation For Models

Documentation For Authorization

Basic Authentication

• Type: HTTP basic authentication

Example

auth := context.WithValue(context.Background(), sw.ContextBasicAuth, sw.BasicAuth{
    UserName: "username",
    Password: "password",
})
r, err := client.Service.Operation(auth, args)

Token Authentication

• Type: API key
• API key parameter name: Authorization
• Location: HTTP header

Note, each API key must be added to a map of map[string]APIKey where the key is: Authorization and passed in as the auth context for each request.

Documentation for Utility Methods

Due to the fact that model structure members are all pointers, this package contains a number of utility functions to easily obtain pointers to values of basic types. Each of these functions takes a value of the given basic type and returns a pointer to it:

• PtrBool
• PtrInt
• PtrInt32
• PtrInt64
• PtrFloat
• PtrFloat32
• PtrFloat64
• PtrString
• PtrTime

Debugging

If you want to see the API call request and response messages, you need to set the Debug field in the Configuration struct:

package main

import "github.com/ionos-cloud/sdk-go/v5"

func main() {
    // create your configuration. replace username, password, token and url with correct values, or use NewConfigurationFromEnv()
    // if you have set your env variables as explained above
    cfg := ionoscloud.NewConfiguration("username", "password", "token", "hostUrl")
    // enable request and response logging
    cfg.Debug = true
    // create you api client with the configuration
    apiClient := ionoscloud.NewAPIClient(cfg)
}

Note: We recommend you only set this field for debugging purposes. Disable it in your production environments because it can log sensitive data. It logs the full request and response without encryption, even for an HTTPS call. Verbose request and response logging can also significantly impact your application’s performance.
