Aliyun ECS

To interact with the ECS API, use aliyun.ecs.connection.EcsConnection.

import aliyun.ecs.connection
conn = aliyun.ecs.connection.EcsConnection('cn-hangzhou')
my_instance_ids = conn.get_all_instance_ids()
for instance_id in my_instance_ids:
    print "Instance ID: ", instance_id
    instance = conn.get_instance(instance_id)
    print "Instance object: ", instance

The many methods in aliyun.ecs.connection.EcsConnection are split into two categories:

1. Direct API implementation
2. Helper and wrapper functionality

The following ECS API actions are nearly fully supported:

• DescribeRegions
• DescribeInstanceStatus
• DescribeInstanceAttribute
• StartInstance
• StopInstance
• RebootInstance
• DeleteInstance
• ModifyInstanceAttribute
• CreateInstance
• AllocatePublicIpAddress
• DescribeInstanceTypes
• JoinSecurityGroup
• LeaveSecurityGroup
• DescribeSecurityGroups
• CreateSecurityGroup
• DescribeSecurityGroupAttribute
• DeleteSecurityGroup
• AuthorizeSecurityGroup
• RevokeSecurityGroup
• DescribeInstanceDisks
• DeleteSnapshot
• DescribeSnapshotAttribute
• DescribeSnapshots
• CreateSnapshot
• DescribeImages
• DeleteImage
• CreateImage

Additional helper functionality is provided by:

• aliyun.ecs.connection.EcsConnection.get_all_region_ids()
• aliyun.ecs.connection.EcsConnection.get_all_instance_ids()
• aliyun.ecs.connection.EcsConnection.create_and_start_instance()
• aliyun.ecs.connection.EcsConnection.get_security_group_ids()
• aliyun.ecs.connection.EcsConnection.add_group_rule()
• aliyun.ecs.connection.EcsConnection.add_internal_cidr_ip_rule()
• aliyun.ecs.connection.EcsConnection.add_external_cidr_ip_rule()
• aliyun.ecs.connection.EcsConnection.remove_group_rule()
• aliyun.ecs.connection.EcsConnection.remove_internal_cidr_ip_rule()
• aliyun.ecs.connection.EcsConnection.remove_external_cidr_ip_rule()

The API’s models are reflected in aliyun.ecs.model and are generally not intended for direct use.
