error importing restobject about python-ilorest-library

[tbarbette]

This file is still not distributed out of today's "pip install". Therefore the quick start example still does not work if followed "line by line".

@bihary84 _restobject.py is a file we created to help with the examples. You can download it here: https://github.com/HewlettPackard/python-ilorest-library/blob/master/examples/Redfish/_redfishobject.py

Hi Jack!
Thank you, I had the impression this is inside the library.
I downloaded it but not I got this error message:

python ex10_add_ilo_user_account.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "ex10_add_ilo_user_account.py", line 16, in <module>
    from _redfishobject import RedfishObject
  File "/root/python/_redfishobject.py", line 74, in <module>
    import redfish.ris.tpdefs
ImportError: No module named redfish.ris.tpdefs

Are you using the latest code branch? That file is available here: https://github.com/HewlettPackard/python-ilorest-library/blob/master/src/redfish/ris/tpdefs.py

I am using this:
https://github.com/HewlettPackard/python-ilorest-library

I just ran the pip install to obtain the library as you can see above.
I have this version:

pip3 show python-ilorest-library
Name: python-ilorest-library
Version: 1.9.2
Summary: iLO Rest Python Library
Home-page: https://github.com/HewlettPackard/python-ilorest-library
Author: Hewlett Packard Enterprise
Author-email: [email protected]
License: UNKNOWN
Location: /usr/lib/python3.4/site-packages
Requires: validictory, jsonpath-rw, jsonpatch, jsonpointer, urlparse2

Should I do the install in a different way? Or are there any prerequisite?

[LumbaJack]

@bihary84 installing from source is usually my recommendation. Also keep in mind that this library doesn't have support for python 3.

[bihary84]

I see. In that case I will try to manually put together the rest calls.

[LumbaJack]

@bihary84 you may want to see if the manually installation works. Just download the zip file and run "python setup.py install". Also we are working on releasing official support for python 3 in the next 2 months.

[bihary84]

I need python3 so if this is not supported I cannot use that. Actually, I created the python calls I need during this afternoon. I just needed to obtain/delete a token and create/list/del users.
Though, it was a bit tricky to figure out the calls based on the available documentation but finally i managed it:)
Thank you for your help!
How can I be notified about the next released which supports the python3?

[LumbaJack]

It will be in our 2.0.2+ release. To keep up with releases you can watch/start the project.

[bihary84]

Thank you! I started to watch the project!
