Support/Maintenance of this repository

Open localleon opened this issue 8 months ago β€’ 0 comments

Hi Rancher team πŸ‘‹

we are a Rancher Prime customer and are looking to integrate Rancher into our internal automation workflows β€” specifically using Python, since we already use Ansible heavily and Python ties in naturally.

Before diving in, I wanted to ask a couple of questions:

  1. Is this Python client still maintained?
    • There hasn't been any visible activity on this repository for quite a while, so I’m wondering if it’s still considered supported or deprecated.
  2. Future client direction / OpenAPI
    • I came across the Rancher API Reference that includes the OpenAPI specification. Is there any plan to publish or support a Python client generated from this spec (e.g. using openapi-generator)? Or would you recommend consumers of the API generate their own clients from that OpenAPI definition?

I'd prefer to stick to a supported or recommended path if one exists β€” and avoid investing in automation around an SDK that may no longer be maintained.

Appreciate any guidance on this β€” thanks for the great work on Rancher!

Best, Leon
