NetXMS Support Forum

Hi all,

I'd like to use the python library "requests" with Jython, but I can't seem to find where NetXMS installs it. Is it balled up in the nxshell Jar? Is there a way I could add libraries to Jython? I looked, and apparently requests is compatible with Jython.

Thanks,
Zach

Like any  pure-python library, just add it to search path.

mkdir c:\tmp
cd c:\tmp
git clone git://github.com/kennethreitz/requests.git
java -jar nxshell-2.0.5.jar

Fancy! Thanks for the suggestion. I'll give it a shot.

Thanks,

Worked like a charm! Just had to change something in the python hmac_auth library because Jython is strongly typed, but otherwise it was no sweat.

Thanks again for the help!
