iRODS is an open source distributed data management system. This is a client API implemented in python.
Currently supported:
- Establish a connection to iRODS, authenticate
- Implement basic Gen Queries (select columns and filtering)
- Support more advanced Gen Queries with limits, offsets, and aggregations
- Query the collections and data objects within a collection
- Execute direct SQL queries
- Execute iRODS rules
- Support read, write, and seek operations for files
- PUT/GET data objects
- Create data objects
- Delete data objects
- Create collections
- Delete collections
- Rename data objects
- Rename collections
- Register files and directories
- Query metadata for collections and data objects
- Add, edit, remove metadata
- Replicate data objects to different resource servers
- Connection pool management
- Implement gen query result sets as lazy queries
- Return empty result sets when CAT_NO_ROWS_FOUND is raised
- Manage permissions
- Manage users and groups
- Manage resources
- GSI authentication
- Unicode strings
- Ticket based access
- iRODS connection over SSL
- Python 2.7, 3.4 or newer
PRC requires Python 2.7 or 3.4+. To install with pip:
pip install python-irodsclient
or:
pip install git+https://github.com/irods/python-irodsclient.git[@branch|@commit|@tag]
pip uninstall python-irodsclient
