Submodules

com.vmware.vcenter.namespaces.user_client module

The com.vmware.vcenter.namespaces.user_client module provides classes to access namespaces for non-administrative users.

class com.vmware.vcenter.namespaces.user_client.Instances(config)

Bases: vmware.vapi.bindings.stub.VapiInterface

The Instances class provides methods to access namespaces for non-administrative users.

Parameters

config (vmware.vapi.bindings.stub.StubConfiguration) – Configuration to be used for creating the stub.

class FilterSpec(username=None, groups=None)

Bases: vmware.vapi.bindings.struct.VapiStruct

The Instances.FilterSpec class contains attributes used to filter the results when listing user namespaces (see Instances.list()). This class was added in vSphere API 8.0.0.1.

Tip

The arguments are used to initialize data attributes with the same names.

Parameters
  • username (str or None) – Identifier of the user. This attribute was added in vSphere API 8.0.0.1. If set, only return namespaces the given user has permissions to access. If None, this filter is not applied.

  • groups (list of str or None) – List of group names. This attribute was added in vSphere API 8.0.0.1. If set, only return namespaces that are associated with the given group(s). If None, this filter is not applied.

class Summary(namespace=None, master_host=None)

Bases: vmware.vapi.bindings.struct.VapiStruct

The Instances.Summary class contains information about a namespace that user is authorized to access.

Tip

The arguments are used to initialize data attributes with the same names.

Parameters
  • namespace (str) – Identifier of the namespace. When clients pass a value of this class as a parameter, the attribute must be an identifier for the resource type: com.vmware.vcenter.namespaces.Instance. When methods return a value of this class as a return value, the attribute will be an identifier for the resource type: com.vmware.vcenter.namespaces.Instance.

  • master_host (str) – IP address or FQDN of the API endpoint for the given namespace.

list(filter=None)

Returns namespaces matching the Instances.FilterSpec.

Parameters

filter (Instances.FilterSpec or None) – Specification of matching principals for which namespaces should be returned. This parameter was added in vSphere API 8.0.0.1. If None, the behavior is equivalent to a FilterSpec with all attributes None, and this method will return the namespaces that user making the call is authorized to access.

Return type

list of Instances.Summary

Returns

List of Namespace identifiers together with the API endpoint for each namespace.

Raise

com.vmware.vapi.std.errors_client.Error if the system reports an error while responding to the request.

Raise

com.vmware.vapi.std.errors_client.Unauthenticated If the user can not be authenticated.

Raise

com.vmware.vapi.std.errors_client.Unauthorized If the user does not have Namespaces.ListAccess privilege to perform this operation.

class com.vmware.vcenter.namespaces.user_client.StubFactory(stub_config)

Bases: vmware.vapi.bindings.stub.StubFactoryBase

Initialize StubFactoryBase

Parameters

stub_config (vmware.vapi.bindings.stub.StubConfiguration) – Stub config instance
