MyProxy Client
Project description
MyProxy Client Package
This a pure* Python implementation of a client to the MyProxy Credential Management Server (http://grid.ncsa.uiuc.edu/myproxy/). It provides both a Python API and a command line interface.
i.e. MyProxy C client libraries are not required for this package.
It uses pyOpenSSL to make an SSL connection to the server following the messaging interface as outlined in: http://grid.ncsa.uiuc.edu/myproxy/protocol/
The code is based on an original program myproxy_logon by Tom Uram of ANL.
Examples
These show how to retrieve a certificate bootstrapping trust in remote service:
API
` >>> from myproxy.client import MyProxyClient >>> myproxy_clnt = MyProxyClient(hostname="myproxy.somewhere.ac.uk") >>> cert, private_key = myproxy_clnt.logon(username, password, bootstrap=True) `
Command line interface
` $ myproxyclient logon -s myproxy.somewhere.ac.uk -l <username> -o creds.pem -b `
Releases
1.4.4
Minor changes for ready for inclusion in conda-forge. Thanks to Alex Goodman.
1.4.3
Fix for SSL to use TLS instead of SSLv3 to address POODLE vulnerability
Fix for SSL verification for PyOpenSSL version 0.14 - v1.3.1 was broken because it passed the call back method to OpenSSL using verification classes’ __call__ method.
Tested on CentOS 6.4.
1.3.1
Fix to MyProxyClient.writeProxyFile and MyProxyClient.readProxyFile to correctly pick-up overridden file setting. Thanks to Nicolas Carenton, IPSL.
Tests
Unit test module with test files is in test/. See the README in that directory.
Documentation
Sphinx generated documentation is available in documentation/. run the Makefile to regenerate if required.
