Ardoqpy is a thin client library for the Ardoq REST API. It consists of 3 clients

• ArdoqClient
  • thin client for the rest-api
• ArdoqSyncClient
  • subclass of ArdoqClient
  • maintains a cache of aggregated workspace information
  • overrides write operations
    • only create components and references if they are not already in the cache
    • update cache for create and update operations
    • cache hit is based on
      • component: name, typeId
        • NB: name match is CASE_INSENSITIVE
      • reference: source, target, and type
  • overriders find_component (comp_name)
    • loads aggregated workspace to cache if its not present
    • finds component based on either of the following
      • name: substring or exact match
      • fieldname == fieldvalue (you need to ensure the types can handle equivalence)
        • fieldname, if not None, is checked first
  • can be run in simulate mode which updates the report but does not execute write operations in ardoq
• Ardoq V2 Client
  • this is a copy of the client provided by ardoq in their developer portal
  • v2 api functionality can be used from this client or built into the original ArdoqClient

(see the test client for examples)

    • pretty print responses from ardoq calls

from ardoqpy_sync import ArdoqSyncClient
ardoq = ArdoqSyncClient(hosturl=host, token=token)
ardoqsim = ArdoqSyncClient(hosturl=host, token=token, simulate=True)

ArdoqSyncClient Implemented:

• all interfaces from ArdoqClient
• component
  • create
    • cache check is based on name attribute only (case insensitive)
  • update
• reference
  • create
    • cache check is based on source, target, and type attributes
  • update

pip install ardoqpy

• Python 3
• Requests - ardoqpy uses requests package for http requests

To get started, simply install ardoqpy, create an ArdoqClient object and call methods:

edit `ardoq.cfg` to include your API token
make sure `ardoqpy.py` opens your `ardoq.cfg`configuration file
use `testclient.py`as a basis for your own client

or from the console

from ardoqpy import ArdoqClient
ardoq = ardoqpy.ArdoqClient(hosturl='https://YOURORG.ardoq.com', token='YOURTOKEN')
# to use v2 API
ardoq = ardoqpy.ArdoqClient(hosturl='https://YOURORG.ardoq.com', token='YOURTOKEN', version='v2')
ardoq.get_workspaces()

• 202401

  • add get reference for v2 client
  • added v2 api client. This is a copy of the one provided by ardoq on the developer portal

• 202307

• 202307

  • added del and update tag

• 202303

  • added audit log for support for components created, updated, deleted, and skipped due to cache_hit

• 202211

  • added support for Ardoq v2 REST API. Only for the ArdoqClient (not SyncClient)

• 202207
