These code samples will show you how to manage Communication Service resources using Azure SDK for Python.

This project framework provides examples for the following services:

• Using the Azure SDK for Python - Communication Management Library azure-mgmt-communication for the Azure Communication API

1. Before we run the samples, we need to make sure we have setup the credentials. Follow the instructions in register a new application using Azure portal to obtain subscription id,client id,client secret, and application id

2. Store your credentials an environment variables. For example, in Linux-based OS, you can do

export AZURE_TENANT_ID="xxx"
export AZURE_CLIENT_ID="xxx"
export AZURE_CLIENT_SECRET="xxx"
export AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID="xxx"
export AZURE_NOTIFICATION_HUB_ID="xxx"
export AZURE_NOTIFICATION_HUB_CONNECTION_STRING="xxx"

1. If you don't already have it, install Python.

   This sample (and the SDK) is compatible with Python 2.7, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5 and 3.6.

2. General recommendation for Python development is to use a Virtual Environment. For more information, see https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/venv.html

   Install and initialize the virtual environment with the "venv" module on Python 3 (you must install virtualenv for Python 2.7):

   python -m venv mytestenv # Might be "python3" or "py -3.6" depending on your Python installation
   cd mytestenv
   source bin/activate      # Linux shell (Bash, ZSH, etc.) only
   ./scripts/activate       # PowerShell only
   ./scripts/activate.bat   # Windows CMD only
   

1. Clone the repository.

   git clone https://github.com/Azure-Samples/azure-samples-python-management.git
   

2. Install the dependencies using pip.

   cd azure-samples-python-management/samples/communication
   pip install -r requirements.txt
   

A demo app is included to show how to use the project. This app covers the following scenarios:

• Create a Communication Service
• Fetch a Communication Service
• Update a Communication Service
• Delete a Communication Service
• List all Communication Services in the subscription
• List all Communication Services in the resource group
• List the Primary and Secondary key pairs
• Regenerate the Primary or Secondary key pair
• Link a Notification Hub to the Communication Service

To view all available commands for the demo, execute python manage_communication.py -h

To run the complete demo, execute python manage_communication.py all

The sample files do not have dependency each other and each file represents an individual end-to-end scenario. Please look at the sample that contains the scenario you are interested in
