Hey, We have official python SDK [1], i think it's worth for you using it as HTTP abstraction layer. [1] http://www.ovirt.org/wiki/SDK On 05/08/2012 11:58 AM, Hui Kai Ran wrote:
Hi, all
When I access the REST API like this ==================================== import urllib2 theurl = 'http://9.181.129.112:8080/api' username = 'admin@internal' password = 'abcd1234' # a great password
passman = urllib2.HTTPPasswordMgrWithDefaultRealm()
passman.add_password('ENGINE', theurl, username, password)
authhandler = urllib2.HTTPBasicAuthHandler(passman)
opener = urllib2.build_opener(authhandler)
urllib2.install_opener(opener) pagehandle = urllib2.urlopen(theurl) ========================================= urlopen failed.
then We do that another way like this, it is ok ======================================== import urllib2 import sys import re import base64 import xml.etree.ElementTree as etree
username='admin@internal' password='abcd1234'
request = urllib2.Request("http://9.181.129.112:8080/api") base64string = base64.encodestring('%s:%s' % (username, password)).replace('\n', '') request.add_header("Authorization", "Basic %s" % base64string) result = urllib2.urlopen(request)
by catching the packets transfered, we found the response from ovirt-engine server as below for failing case: ================================================================ GET /api HTTP/1.1 Accept-Encoding: identity Host: 9.181.129.112:8080 Connection: close User-Agent: Python-urllib/2.7
HTTP/1.1 401 Unauthorized Server: Apache-Coyote/1.1 WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm = "ENGINE" Content-Type: text/html;charset=utf-8 Content-Length: 956 Date: Fri, 04 May 2012 09:18:06 GMT Connection: close
Is there anything wrong for oVirt-engine?
Thanks!
