OpenAM Versions

This python module should work with the following versions of OpenAM:

  • 12.0.0
  • 13.0.0

Tests will validate that the module works on these versions. There is no plan yet to update the module so it can also handle older "legacy" versions.

Installation

Installation is very simple, execute the following command:

pip install python-openam

Module is installed and can be used.

Example usage

The following is a basic example for authenticating and doing an logout on OpenAM:

import openam

am = openam.Openam(openam_url="http://openam.example.com:8080/openam/")
am.authenticate(username="amadmin", password="password_openam")
am.logout()

You'll have to update the 'openam_url' and both the 'username' and 'password' for your setup.

Creating an identity

import openam
am = openam.Openam(openam_url="http://openam.example.com:8080/openam/")
auth_data = am.authenticate(username="amadmin", password="password_openam")
user_data = {"username": "bjensen", "userpassword": "secret12", "mail": "bjensen@example.com"}

am.create_identity(user_data=user_data)
{u'username': u'bjensen', u'dn': [u'uid=bjensen,ou=people,dc=openam,dc=forgerock,dc=org'], u'realm': u'/'..}
am.create_identity(user_data=user_data)
{u'reason': u'Conflict', u'code': 409, u'message': u'Resource already exists'}
am.logout()
