class Portal(__builtin__.object) |
|
An object representing a connection to a single portal (via URL).
Notes:
To instantiate a Portal object execute code like this:
PortalPy.Portal(portalUrl, user, password)
There are a few things you should know as you use the methods below.
Group IDs
Many of the group functions require a group id. This id is
different than the group's name or title. To determine
a group id, use the search_groups function using the title
to get the group id.
Time
Many of the methods return a time field. All time is
returned as millseconds since 1 January 1970. Python
expects time in seconds since 1 January 1970 so make sure
to divide times from PortalPy by 1000. See the example
a few lines down to see how to convert from PortalPy time
to Python time.
Example - converting time
import time
.
.
.
group = portalAdmin.get_group('67e1761068b7453693a0c68c92a62e2e')
pythontime = time.ctime(group['created']/1000)
Example - list users in group
portal = PortalPy.Portal(portalUrl, user, password)
resp = portal.get_group_members('67e1761068b7453693a0c68c92a62e2e')
for user in resp['users']:
print user
Example - create a group
portal= PortalPy.Portal(portalUrl, user, password)
group_id = portalAdmin.create_group('my group', 'test tag', 'a group to share travel maps')
Example - delete a user named amy and assign her content to bob
portal= PortalPy.Portal(portalUrl, user, password)
portal.delete_user('amy.user', True, 'bob.user') |
|
Methods defined here:
- __init__(self, url, username=None, password=None, key_file=None, cert_file=None, expiration=60, referer=None, proxy_host=None, proxy_port=None, connection=None, workdir=r'c:\users\davi3690\appdata\local\temp\2')
- The Portal constructor. Requires URL and optionally username/password.
- add_group_users(self, user_names, group_id)
- Adds users to the group specified.
Note:
This method will only work if the user for the
Portal object is either an administrator for the entire
Portal or the owner of the group.
Arguments
user_names required string, comma-separated users
group_id required string, specifying group id
Returns
A dictionary with a key of "not_added" which contains the users that were not
added to the group.
- create_group(self, title, tags, description=None, snippet=None, access='public', thumbnail=None, is_invitation_only=False, sort_field='avgRating', sort_order='desc', is_view_only=False)
- Creates a group and returns a group id if successful.
Arguments
title required string, name of the group
tags required string, comma-delimited list of tags
description optional string, describes group in detail
snippet optional string, <250 characters summarizes group
access optional string, can be private, public, or org
thumbnail optional string, URL to group image
isInvitationOnly optional boolean, defines whether users can join by request.
sort_field optional string, specifies how shared items with the group are sorted.
sort_order optional string, asc or desc for ascending or descending.
is_view_only optional boolean, defines whether the group is searchable
Returns
a string that is a group id.
- create_group_from_dict(self, group, thumbnail=None)
- Creates a group and returns a group id if successful.
Note
Use create_group in most cases. This method is useful for taking a group
dict returned from another PortalPy call and copying it.
Arguments
group dict object
thumbnail url to image
Example
create_group({'title': 'Test', 'access':'public'})
- delete_group(self, group_id)
- Deletes a group.
Arguments
group_id is a string containing the id for the group to be deleted.
Returns
a boolean indicating whether it was successful.
- delete_user(self, username, cascade=False, reassign_to=None)
- Deletes a user from the portal, optionally deleting or reassigning groups and items.
Notes
You can not delete a user in Portal if that user owns groups or items. If you
choose to cascade then those items and groups will be reassigned to
the user identified in the reassign_to option. If you choose not to cascade
the deletion will either succeed or fail depending on whether the user's items
and groups have previously been transferred.
When cascading, this method will delete up to 10,000 items. If the user
has more than 10,000 items the method will fail.
Arguments
username required string, the name of the user
cascade: optional boolean, true means reassign items and groups
reassign_to optional string, new owner of items and groups
Returns
a boolean indicating whether the operation succeeded or failed.
- generate_token(self, username, password, expiration=60)
- Generates and returns a new token, but doesn't re-login.
Notes
This method is not needed when using the Portal class
to make calls into Portal. It's provided for the benefit
of making calls into Portal outside of the Portal class.
Portal uses a token-based authentication mechanism where
a user provides their credentials and a short-term token
is used for calls. Most calls made to the Portal REST API
require a token and this can be appended to those requests.
Arguments
username required string, name of the user
password required password, name of the user
expiration optional integer, number of minutes until the token expires
Returns
a string with the token
- get_group(self, group_id)
- Returns group information for the specified group group_id.
Arguments
group_id : required string, indicating group.
Returns
a dictionary object with the group's information. The keys in
the dictionary object will often include:
title: the name of the group
isInvitationOnly: if set to true, users can't apply to join the group.
owner: the owner username of the group
description: explains the group
snippet: a short summary of the group
tags: user-defined tags that describe the group
phone: contact information for group.
thumbnail: File name relative to http://<community-url>/groups/<groupId>/info
created: When group created, ms since 1 Jan 1970
modified: When group last modified. ms since 1 Jan 1970
access: Can be private, org, or public.
userMembership: A dict with keys username and memberType.
memberType: provides the calling user's access (owner, admin, member, none).
- get_group_members(self, group_id)
- Returns members of the specified group.
Arguments
group_id: required string, specifies the group
Returns
a dictionary with keys: owner, admins, and users.
owner string value, the group's owner
admins list of strings, typically this is the same as the owner.
users list of strings, the members of the group
Example (to print users in a group)
response = portal.get_group_members("67e1761068b7453693a0c68c92a62e2e")
for user in response['users'] :
print user
- get_group_thumbnail(self, group_id)
- Returns the bytes that make up the thumbnail for the specified group group_id.
Arguments
group_id: required string, specifies the group's thumbnail
Returns
bytes that representt he image.
Example
response = portal.get_group_thumbnail("67e1761068b7453693a0c68c92a62e2e")
f = open(filename, 'wb')
f.write(response)
- get_org_users(self, max_users=1000)

cache then you can set the force argument to True.
Arguments:
force boolean, true=make a request, false=use cache

a string with the version. The version is an internal number
that may not match the version of the product purchased. So

be adequately described here. The query syntax is
available in ArcGIS help. A short version of that URL
is http://bitly.com/1fJ8q31.
2. Most of the time when searching groups you want to
search within your organization in ArcGIS Online
or within your Portal. As a convenience, the method
automatically appends your organization id to the query by
default. If you don't want the API to append to your query
set add_org to false.
