Lightweight Java wrapper around OVH's APIs. Handles all the hard work including credential creation and requests signing.

import com.ovh.api.OvhApi;

public class OvhApiTest {

        public void testCall() throws OvhApiException {
                String endpoint = "ovh-eu";
                String appKey = "0000000000000000";
                String appSecret = "00000000000000000000000000000000";
                String consumerKey = "00000000000000000000000000000000";

                OvhApi api = new OvhApi(endpoint, appKey, appSecret, consumerKey);
                try {
                        api.get("/me");
                } catch (OvhApiException e) {
                        System.out.prinln(e);
                }
        }
}

The wrapper accepts and returns raw json Strings. You can serialize/deserialize it with any external library, the following example uses Gson from Google.

import com.ovh.api.OvhApi;
import com.google.gson.Gson;

public class OvhApiTest {

        public class Me {

                public String firstname;
                public String name;
                public String nichandle;

                @Override
                public String toString() {
                        return "Me [firstname=" + firstname + ", name=" + name + ", nichandle=" + nichandle + "]";
                }

        }

        public void testCall() throws OvhApiException {
                String endpoint = "ovh-eu";
                String appKey = "0000000000000000";
                String appSecret = "00000000000000000000000000000000";
                String consumerKey = "00000000000000000000000000000000";

                OvhApi api = new OvhApi(endpoint, appKey, appSecret, consumerKey);
                try {
                        String json = api.get("/me");
                        Gson gson = new Gson();
                        Me me = gson.fromJson(json, Me.class);
                        System.out.println(json);
                        System.out.println(me.toString());
                } catch (OvhApiException e) {
                        System.out.prinln(e);
                }
        }
}

The straightforward way to use OVH's API keys is to embed them directly in the application code. While this is very convenient, it lacks of elegance and flexibility.

Alternatively it is suggested to use configuration files or environment variables so that the same code may run seamlessly in multiple environments. Production and development for instance.

This wrapper will first look for direct instantiation parameters then OVH_ENDPOINT, OVH_APPLICATION_KEY, OVH_APPLICATION_SECRET and OVH_CONSUMER_KEY environment variables. If either of these parameter is not provided, it will look for a configuration file of the form:

endpoint=ovh-eu
application_key=my_app_key
application_secret=my_application_secret
consumer_key=my_consumer_key

The client will successively attempt to locate this configuration file in

1. Current working directory: ./ovh.conf
2. Current user's home directory ~/.ovh.conf
3. System wide configuration /etc/ovh.conf

This lookup mechanism makes it easy to overload credentials for a specific project or user.

The project is hosted on github and uses gradle as a build system.

git clone https://github.com/ovh/java-ovh.git
cd java-ovh
./gradlew build

The compiled library will be at build/libs/java-ovh.jar

You've developed a new cool feature ? Fixed an annoying bug ? We'd be happy to hear from you !

./gradlew test
