CVPySDK

CVPySDK is a Python Package for Commvault Software.

CVPySDK uses Commvault REST API to perform operations on a Commcell via WebConsole.

Requirements

  • Python 2.7 or above
  • requests Python package
  • future Python package
  • xmltodict Python package
  • Commvault Software v11 SP7 or later release with WebConsole installed

Installing CVPySDK

CVPySDK is available on GitHub here

It can be installed from source. After downloading, from within the cvpysdk directory, execute:

python setup.py install

Using CVPySDK

Login to Commcell:
>>> from cvpysdk.commcell import Commcell
>>> commcell = Commcell(webconsole_hostname, commcell_username, commcell_password)
Print all clients:
>>> print(commcell.clients)
Get a client:
>>> client = commcell.clients.get(client_name)
Get an agent:
>>> agent = client.agents.get(agent_name)
Get a backupset:
>>> backupset = agent.backupsets.get(backupset_name)
Get a subclient:
>>> subclient = backupset.subclients.get(subclient_name)
Run backup for a backupset:
>>> job = backupset.backup()
Run backup for a subclient:
>>> job = subclient.backup(backup_level, incremental_backup, incremental_level)
Browsing content of a subclient:
>>> paths, dictionary = subclient.browse(path, show_deleted_files, vm_file_browse, vm_disk_browse)
Browsing content of a subclient in a specific time range:
>>> paths, dictionary = subclient.browse_in_time(path, show_deleted_files, restore_index, from_date, to_date)
Searching a file in subclient backup content:
>>> paths, dictionary = subclient.find(file_or_folder_name, show_deleted_files, restore_index)
Run restore in place job for a subclient:
>>> job = subclient.restore_in_place(paths, overwrite, restore_data_and_acl)
Run restore out of place job for a subclient:
>>> job = subclient.restore_out_of_place(client, destination_path, paths, overwrite, restore_data_and_acl)
Job Operations:
>>> job.pause()             # Suspends the Job
>>> job.resume()            # Resumes the Job
>>> job.kill()              # Kills the Job
>>> job.status              # Current Status the Job  --  Completed / Pending / Failed / .... / etc.
>>> job.finished            # Job finished or not     --  True / False
>>> job.delay_reason        # Job delay reason (if any)
>>> job.pending_reason      # Job pending reason (if any)

Uninstalling

On Windows, if CVPySDK was installed using an .exe or .msi installer, simply use the uninstall feature of "Add/Remove Programs" in the Control Panel.

Alternatively, you can uninstall using the pip command:

pip uninstall cvpysdk

Contribution Guidelines

  1. We welcome all the enhancements from everyone although we request the developer to follow some guidelines while interacting with the CVPySDK codebase.
  2. Before adding any enhancements/bug-fixes, we request you to open an Issue first.
  3. The SDK team will go over the Issue and notify if it is required or already been worked on.
  4. If the Issue is approved, the contributor can then make the changes to their fork and open a pull request.

Pull Requests

  • CVPySDK has 3 branches, namely:
    • master
    • dev
    • test
  • The contributor should Fork the dev branch, and make their changes on top of it, and open a Pull Request
  • The test branch will Synced with the dev branch after every n commits, depending on the commit size
  • The master branch will then be updated with the test branch, once everything is verified
Note: The SDK team will not accept any Pull Requests on the master branch

Coding Considerations

  • All python code should be PEP8 compliant.
  • All changes should be consistent with the design of the SDK.
  • The code should be formatted using autopep8 with line-length set to 99 instead of default 79.
  • All changes and any new methods/classes should be properly documented.
  • The doc strings should be of the same format as existing docs.

Code of Conduct

Everyone interacting in the CVPySDK project's codebases, issue trackers, chat rooms, and mailing lists is expected to follow the PyPA Code of Conduct.
