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
2.0.1
Updated hashing algorithm to sha256 after reported errors interacting with some servers
2.0.0
Ported to Python 3. This version is dual compatible with Python 2 and 3.
Minor fix to script to improve error reporting
Added Vagrantfile to enable provisioning of test myproxy-server for use with the tests.

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

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.
