With IONOS Cloud Database as a Service, you have the ability to quickly set up and manage a MongoDB database. You can also delete clusters, manage backups and users via the API.
MongoDB is an open source, cross-platform, document-oriented database program. Classified as a NoSQL database program, it uses JSON-like documents with optional schemas.
The MongoDB API allows you to create additional database clusters or modify existing ones. Both tools, the Data Center Designer (DCD) and the API use the same concepts consistently and are well suited for smooth and intuitive use.
The IONOS Cloud SDK for Python provides you with access to the IONOS Cloud Dbaas Postgres API. The client library supports both simple and complex requests. It is designed for developers who are building applications in Python. All API operations are performed over SSL and authenticated using your IONOS Cloud portal credentials. The API can be accessed within an instance running in IONOS Cloud or directly over the Internet from any application that can send an HTTPS request and receive an HTTPS response.
Requirements:
- Python >= 3.5
Since this package is hosted on Pypi you can install it by using:
pip install ionoscloud-dbaas-mongoIf the python package is hosted on a repository, you can install directly using:
pip install git+https://github.com/ionos-cloud/sdk-python-dbaas-mongo.gitNote: you may need to run pip with root permission: sudo pip install git+https://github.com/ionos-cloud/sdk-python-dbaas-mongo.git
Then import the package:
import ionoscloud_dbaas_mongoInstall via Setuptools.
python setup.py install --useror sudo python setup.py install to install the package for all users
Then import the package:
import ionoscloud_dbaas_mongoNOTE: The Python SDK does not support Python 2. It only supports Python >= 3.5.
The username and password or the authentication token can be manually specified when initializing the SDK client:
configuration = ionoscloud_dbaas_mongo.Configuration(
username='YOUR_USERNAME',
password='YOUR_PASSWORD',
token='YOUR_TOKEN'
)
client = ionoscloud_dbaas_mongo.ApiClient(configuration)Environment variables can also be used. This is an example of how one would do that:
import os
configuration = ionoscloud_dbaas_mongo.Configuration(
username=os.environ.get('IONOS_USERNAME'),
password=os.environ.get('IONOS_PASSWORD'),
token=os.environ.get('IONOS_TOKEN')
)
client = ionoscloud_dbaas_mongo.ApiClient(configuration)Warning: Make sure to follow the Information Security Best Practices when using credentials within your code or storing them in a file.
You can use http proxies by setting the following environment variables:
IONOS_HTTP_PROXY- proxy URLIONOS_HTTP_PROXY_HEADERS- proxy headers
Base URL for the HTTP operation can be changed in the following way:
import os
configuration = ionoscloud_dbaas_mongo.Configuration(
username=os.environ.get('IONOS_USERNAME'),
password=os.environ.get('IONOS_PASSWORD'),
host=os.environ.get('IONOS_API_URL'),
server_index=None,
)
client = ionoscloud_dbaas_mongo.ApiClient(configuration)You can enable certificate pinning if you want to bypass the normal certificate checking procedure, by doing the following:
Set env variable IONOS_PINNED_CERT=<insert_sha256_public_fingerprint_here>
You can get the sha256 fingerprint most easily from the browser by inspecting the certificate.
