Morpheus API Calls from Python

Wed, 30 Mar 2022 20:59:28 GMT

I use Python to interact with Morpheus for internal and external clients and I wanted an easy way to make calls to the Morpheus API without dealing with Python requests. Enter pymorpheus, an easy Python module to act as a wrapper to the Morpheus API.

If I wanted to get a list of instances with a phrase matching “test”, it’s super easy:

from pymorpheus import MorpheusClient
morpheus = MorpheusClient("https://yoururl", username="youruser", password="yourpass")
results = morpheus.call("get", path="instances", options=[("phrase","testing")])
print(results)

Adding json payloads to POST calls is handled within the same call as well. You can also use a token to authenticate.

@jwheeler 's solution will work for user level. If using it in a Python task in Morpheus, you can put pymorpheus into the Additional Packages box of the task.

Absolutely. Those will be ephemeral for the duration of the task.

Instead of username, password and url, can we use morpheus[‘morpheus’][‘apiAccessToken’] and morpheus[‘morpheus’][‘applianceUrl’] ?

How do I install pymorpheus?

As a matter of fact, it is!

It’s just a wrapper to make requests easier to deal with. Not incredibly robust.
