Go SDK

Version: profitbricks-sdk-go 4.0.2

The ProfitBricks Client Library for Go provides you with access to the ProfitBricks REST API. It is designed for developers who are building applications in Go.

This guide will walk you through getting setup with the library and performing various actions against the API.

Description

The Go SDK wraps the latest version of the ProfitBricks REST API. All API operations are performed over SSL and authenticated using your ProfitBricks portal credentials. The API can be accessed within an instance running in ProfitBricks or directly over the Internet from any application that can send an HTTPS request and receive an HTTPS response.

Getting Started

Before you begin you will need to have signed-up for a ProfitBricks account. The credentials you setup during sign-up will be used to authenticate against the API.

Installation

Install the Go language from: Go Installation

The GOPATH environment variable specifies the location of your Go workspace. It is likely the only environment variable you'll need to set when developing Go code. This is an example of pointing to a workspace configured underneath your home directory:

mkdir -p ~/go/bin
export GOPATH=~/go
export GOBIN=$GOPATH/bin
export PATH=$PATH:$GOBIN

The following go command will download profitbricks-sdk-go to your configured GOPATH:

go get "github.com/profitbricks/profitbricks-sdk-go"

The source code of the package will be located at:

$GOBIN\src\profitbricks-sdk-go

Create main package file example.go:

package main

import (
	"fmt"
)

func main() {
}

Import GO SDK:

import(
	"github.com/profitbricks/profitbricks-sdk-go"
)

Authenticating

Add your credentials for connecting to ProfitBricks:

profitbricks.SetAuth("username", "password")

Caution: You will want to ensure you follow security best practices when using credentials within your code or stored in a file.

Error Handling

The SDK will raise custom exceptions when the Cloud API returns an error. There are four response types:

HTTP Code	Description
401	The supplied user credentials are invalid.
404	The requested resource cannot be found.
422	The request body includes invalid JSON.
429	The Cloud API rate limit has been exceeded.

Concepts

Getting Started

Before you begin you will need to have signed-up for a ProfitBricks account. The credentials you setup during sign-up will be used to authenticate against the API.

Install the Go language from: Go Installation

mkdir -p ~/go/bin
export GOPATH=~/go
export GOBIN=$GOPATH/bin
export PATH=$PATH:$GOBIN

Installation

The following go command will download profitbricks-sdk-go to your configured GOPATH:

go get "github.com/profitbricks/profitbricks-sdk-go"

The source code of the package will be located at:

$GOBIN\src\profitbricks-sdk-go

Create main package file example.go:

package main

import (
	"fmt"
)

func main() {
}

Import GO SDK:

import(
	"github.com/profitbricks/profitbricks-sdk-go"
)

Add your credentials for connecting to ProfitBricks:

profitbricks.SetAuth("username", "password")

Set depth:

profitbricks.SetDepth("5")

Depth controls the amount of data returned from the REST server ( range 1-5 ). The larger the number the more information is returned from the server. This is especially useful if you are looking for the information in the nested objects.

Caution: You will want to ensure you follow security best practices when using credentials within your code or stored in a file.

Reference

This section provides details on all the available operations and the arguments they accept. Brief code snippets demonstrating usage are also included.

Depth

Many of the List or Get operations will accept an optional depth argument. Setting this to a value between 0 and 5 affects the amount of data that is returned. The detail returned varies somewhat depending on the resource being queried, however it generally follows this pattern.

Depth	Description
0	Only direct properties are included. Children are not included.
1	Direct properties and children's references are returned.
2	Direct properties and children's properties are returned.
3	Direct properties, children's properties, and descendant's references are returned.
4	Direct properties, children's properties, and descendant's properties are returned.
5	Returns all available properties.

This SDK sets the Depth=5 by default as that works well in the majority of cases. You may find that setting Depth to a lower or higher value could simplify a later operation by reducing or increasing the data available in the response object.

Data Centers

Virtual Data Centers (VDCs) are the foundation of the ProfitBricks platform. VDCs act as logical containers for all other objects you will be creating, e.g., servers. You can provision as many VDCs as you want. VDCs have their own private network and are logically segmented from each other to create isolation.

List Data Centers

This operation will list all currently provisioned VDCs that your account credentials provide access to.

There are no request arguments that need to be supplied.

Call ListDatacenters:

ListDatacenters()

The following table describes the request arguments:

Name	Required	Type	Description
datacenter	yes	object	A Datacenter object describing the VDC being created.

Build the Datacenter resource object:

Note: You will need to provide either the Image or the LicenceType arguments when creating a volume. A LicenceType is required, but if Image is supplied, it is already set and cannot be changed. Either the ImagePassword or SshKeys arguments need to be supplied when creating a volume using one of the official ProfitBricks images. Only official ProfitBricks provided images support the SshKeys and ImagePassword arguments.

Update a Volume

You can update various attributes of an existing volume; however, some restrictions are in place:

You can increase the size of an existing storage volume. You cannot reduce the size of an existing storage volume. The volume size will be increased without requiring a reboot if the relevant hot plug settings (disc_virtio_hot_plug, disc_virtio_hot_unplug, etc.) have been set to true. The additional capacity is not added automatically added to any partition, therefore you will need to handle that inside the OS afterwards. Once you have increased the volume size you cannot decrease the volume size.

Since an existing volume is being modified, none of the request arguments are specifically required as long as the changes being made satisfy the requirements for creating a volume.

The following table describes the request arguments:

Name	Required	Type	Description
datacenterId	yes	string	The ID of the VDC.
volumeId	yes	string	The ID of the volume.
Name	no	string	The name of the volume.

LicenceType	no	string	The licence type of the volume. Options: LINUX, WINDOWS, WINDOWS2016, UNKNOWN, OTHER. You may get an error trying to update `LicenceType` depending on the `Image` that was used to create the volume. For example, you cannot update the `LicenceType` for a volume created from a ProfitBricks supplied OS image.

Note: Trying to change the Image, Type, or AvailabilityZone in an update request will result in an error.
