Azure Python example

Azure Python example

I'd be happy to help!

Here is an example of using Azure services with Python:

Azure Storage Blob

from azure.storage.blob import BlobServiceClient
Create a blob service client object
blob_service_client = BlobServiceClient.from_connection_string("DefaultEndpointsProtocol=https;AccountName=<account_name>;AccountKey=<account_key>;BlobEndpoint=<blob_endpoint>")
Get a reference to the container
container_client = blob_service_client.get_container_client("mycontainer")
List all blobs in the container
blobs = list(container_client.list_blobs())
for blob in blobs:
print(blob.name)
Download a specific blob
blob_client = container_client.get_blob_client("myblob")
data = blob_client.download_blob().content_as_text()
print(data)

Azure Cognitive Search

from azure.cognitiveservices.search.services import SearchServiceClient
Create a search client object
search_service_client = SearchServiceClient.from_connection_string("https://<service_name>.search.windows.net;Key=<api_key>")
Perform a search query
results = search_service_client.Documents.query({"query": "mysearchquery"})
for result in results:
print(result.DocumentID)
Create an index
index_client = search_service_client.Indexes.create("myindex", {"fields": ["myfield1", "myfield2"]})

Azure Cosmos DB

from azure.cosmos import CosmosClient
Create a cosmos client object
cosmos_client = CosmosClient("<account_name>", "<account_key>")
Get a reference to the database and container
database_name = "mydatabase"
container_name = "mycontainer"
database = cosmos_client.get_database_client(database_name)
container = database.get_container_client(container_name)
Create a document
document = {"id": 1, "name": "John"}
container.create_item(document)
Query for documents with name matching "John"
query = "SELECT * FROM mycontainer WHERE name = 'John'"
results = list(container.query_items(query, enable_cross_partition_query=True))
for result in results:
print(result)

Azure Function

import logging
from azure.functions import *
@app.function(
name="myfunction",
methods=["POST"],
auth_level=AUTH_LEVEL.ANY,
)
def main(req: func.HttpRequest) -> func.HttpResponse:
Get the request body as JSON
req_body = req.get_json(silent=False)
logging.info(req_body)
Perform some processing on the request body
result = {"processed_data": "myprocesseddata"}
Return a response with the processed data
return func.HttpResponse(result, status_code=200)

These are just a few examples of using Azure services with Python. There are many more services and features available in Azure, so I hope this gives you a good starting point for exploring what's possible!

Python Azure package

I'm happy to help!

The Python Azure package you're referring to is likely the Azure SDK for Python, which provides a set of libraries and tools that enable developers to create applications that interact with various Azure services, such as storage, compute, networking, and more.

Here are some key features and capabilities of the Azure SDK for Python:

Some notable packages within the Azure SDK for Python include:

To get started with the Azure SDK for Python, you can install the required packages using pip:

pip install azure-storage-blob
pip install azure-mgmt-compute
pip install azure-mgmt-network
pip install azure-identity

After installation, you can import the necessary packages and begin interacting with your Azure resources. For example, to upload a file to Blob Storage using the azure-storage-blob package, you might use code like this:

from azure.storage.blob import BlobServiceClient
blob_service_client = BlobServiceClient("https://yourstorageaccount.blob.core.windows.net/", credential=DefaultAzureCredential())
blob_client = blob_service_client.get_blob_client("my-container", "my-file.txt")
with open("path/to/local/file.txt", "rb") as file:
blob_client.upload_blob(file, overwrite=True)

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any further questions.
