A python implementation of a client that can access a remote CDCS server via its web API.
This repository provides a python package that is intended to be complete and knowledgeable client to the Configurable Data Curation System (CDCS) v2.0 web service API. That is, it presents the low-level semantics of the web API in a python programming interface. Currently, this software is experimental and, thus, not expected to be complete at this time.
This software requires Python 2.7.9 or Python 3.4 or greater.
The python module prerequisites are captured in the requirements.txt
file. The prerequisites include:
- requests (> 2.18.0)
These can be installed using the pip tool:
pip install -r requirements.txt
To build this package, use the included setup.py script:
python setup.py build
This installs the compiled Python code into a subdirectory called
build. To install the package, use the install command:
python setup.py install
Use the --prefix option to install the package in a specific
location (see setuptools documentation for details).
The unit tests can be executed via the included setup.py script:
python setup.py test
