Current versions should utilize the local authentication mechanism. The remote authentication mechanism is intended only for development and test purposes for the time being.

See the VERSION.rst for detailed information about current version.

pypowervm provides a Python-based API wrapper for interaction with IBM PowerVM-based systems.

The library's license can be found in the LICENSE file. It must be reviewed prior to use.

• debian/: Debian packaging metadata and controls.
• pypowervm/: Project source code.
  • helpers/: Decorator methods suitable for passing to the helpers parameter of the pypowervm.adapter.Adapter initializer.
  • locale/: Translated message files for internationalization (I18N).
  • tasks/: Modules for performing complex tasks on PowerVM objects.
    • monitor/: Modules for tasks specific to the PowerVM Performance and Capacity Monitoring (PCM) API.
  • tests/: Functional and unit tests. The directory and file structure mirrors that of the project code. For example, tests for module pypowervm/wrappers/logical_partition.py can be found in pypowervm/tests/wrappers/test_logical_partition.py.
    • data/: Data files used by test cases. These are generally XML dumps obtained from real PowerVM REST API servers, often via the utilities found in pypowervm/tests/test_utils/.
    • helpers/: Tests for modules under pypowervm/helpers/.
    • locale/: Directory structure containing sample internationalization (I18N) files for I18N testing.
    • tasks/: Tests for modules under pypowervm/tasks/.
      • monitor/: Tests for modules under pypowervm/tasks/monitor/.
    • test_utils/: Utilities useful for test development and implementation.
    • utils/: Tests for modules under pypowervm/utils/.
    • wrappers/: Tests for modules under pypowervm/wrappers/.
      • pcm/: Tests for modules under pypowervm/wrappers/pcm/.
  • utils/: Common helper utilities.
  • wrappers/: Modules presenting intuitive hierarchical views and controls on PowerVM REST objects. Simple operations involving getting or setting single, independent attributes on an object are handled by the wrappers defined here.
    • pcm/: Wrapper modules specific to the PowerVM Performance and Capacity Monitoring (PCM) API.

To enable sonar code scans through tox there are a few steps involved.

• Install sonar locally. See: http://www.sonarqube.org/downloads/

• Create a host mapping in /etc/hosts for the name 'sonar-server'. If the sonar server were on the local host then the entry might be:

  127.0.0.1  sonar-server

  Alternatively, you can set the environment variable SONAR_SERVER prior to invoking tox, to specify the server to use.

• The following environment variable must be set in order to log onto the sonar server:

  SONAR_USER
  SONAR_PASSWORD

  An example invocation:

  # SONAR_USER=user SONAR_PASSWORD=password tox -e sonar

• Sonar output is placed in:

  .sonar/
