Developer Interface¶
This part of the documentation covers all the available interfaces of haproxyadmin package. Public and internal interfaces are described.
HAProxy
, Frontend
, Backend
and server
classes are the main 4 public interfaces.
These classes provide methods to run various operations. HAProxy provides a
several statistics which can be retrieved by calling metric()
, see
HAProxy statistics for the full list of statistics.
haproxyadmin.internal
module provides a set of classes that are not
meant for external use.
haproxyadmin.haproxy¶
This module implements the main haproxyadmin API.
- class haproxyadmin.haproxy.HAProxy(socket_dir=None, socket_file=None, retry=2, retry_interval=2, timeout=1)¶
Build a user-created
HAProxy
object for HAProxy.This is the main class to interact with HAProxy and provides methods to create objects for managing frontends, backends and servers. It also provides an interface to interact with HAProxy as a way to retrieve settings/statistics but also change settings.
ACLs and MAPs are also managed by
HAProxy
class.- Parameters:

a user-created
HAProxy

object
HAProxy assigns unique ids to each object during the startup. The id can change when configuration changes, objects order is reshuffled or additions/removals take place. In those cases the id we store at the instantiation of the object may reference to another object or even to non-existent object when configuration takes places afterwards.
The technique we use is quite simple. When an object is created we store the name and the id. In order to detect if iid is changed, we simply send a request to fetch data only for the given iid and check if the current id points to an object of the same type (frontend, backend, server) which has the same name.
- property iid¶
Return Proxy ID

An object that holds field/value of a CSV line.
The field name becomes the attribute of the class. Needs the header line of CSV during instantiation.
- Parameters:
parts (list) – A list with field values
Usage:
>>> from haproxyadmin import utils >>> heads = ['pxname', 'type', 'lbtol'] >>> parts = ['foor', 'backend', '444'] >>> utils.CSVLine.heads = heads >>> csvobj = utils.CSVLine(parts) >>> csvobj.pxname 'foor' >>> csvobj.type 'backend' >>> csvobj.lbtol '444' >>> csvobj.bar Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> File "/.../haproxyadmin/haproxyadmin/utils.py", line 341, in __getattr__ _index = self.heads.index(attr) ValueError: 'bar' is not in list
- haproxyadmin.utils.calculate(name, metrics)¶
Perform the appropriate calculation across a list of metrics.
- Parameters:
name (
string
) – name of the metric.metrics (
list
) – a list of metrics. Elements need to be eitherint
orfloat
type number.
- Returns:
either the sum or the average of metrics.
- Return type:
integer
- Raise:
ValueError
when matric name has unknown type of calculation.
- haproxyadmin.utils.check_command(results)¶
Check if command was successfully executed.
After a command is executed. We care about the following cases:
The same output is returned by all processes
If output matches to a list of outputs which indicate that command was valid
- Parameters:
results (
list
) –a list of tuples with 2 elements.
process number of HAProxy
message returned by HAProxy
- Returns:
True
if command was successfully executed otherwiseFalse
.- Return type:
bool
- Raise:
MultipleCommandResults
when output differers.
- haproxyadmin.utils.check_command_addr_port(change_type, results)¶
Check if command to set port or address was successfully executed.
Unfortunately, haproxy returns many different combinations of output when we change the address or the port of the server and trying to determine if address or port was successfully changed isn’t that trivial.
So, after we change address or port, we check if the same output is returned by all processes and we also check if a collection of specific strings are part of the output. This is a suboptimal solution, but I couldn’t come up with something more elegant.
- Parameters:
change_type (
string
) – eitheraddr
orport
results (
list
) –a list of tuples with 2 elements.
process number of HAProxy
message returned by HAProxy
- Returns:
True
if command was successfully executed otherwiseFalse
.- Return type:
bool
- Raise:
MultipleCommandResults
,CommandFailed
andValueError
.
- haproxyadmin.utils.check_output(output)¶
Check if output contains any error.
Several commands return output which we need to return back to the caller. But, before we return anything back we want to perform a sanity check on on the output in order to catch wrong input as it is impossible to perform any sanitization on values/patterns which are passed as input to the command.
- Parameters:
output (
list
) – output of the command.- Returns:
True
if no errors found in output otherwiseFalse
.- Return type:
bool
- haproxyadmin.utils.cmd_across_all_procs(hap_objects, method, *arg, **kargs)¶
Return the result of a command executed in all HAProxy process.
Note
Objects must have a property with the name ‘process_nb’ which returns the HAProxy process number.
- Parameters:
hap_objects (
list
) – a list of objects.method – a valid method for the objects.
- Returns:
list of 2-item tuple
HAProxy process number
what the method returned
- Return type:
list
- haproxyadmin.utils.compare_values(values)¶
Run an intersection test across values returned by processes.
It is possible that not all processes return the same value for certain keys(status, weight etc) due to various reasons. We must detect these cases and either return the value which is the same across all processes or raise
<IncosistentData>
.- Parameters:
values (
list
) –a list of tuples with 2 elements.
process number of HAProxy process returned the data
value returned by HAProxy process.
- Returns:
value
- Return type:
string
- Raise:
- haproxyadmin.utils.connected_socket(path, timeout)¶
Check if socket file is a valid HAProxy socket file.
We send a ‘show info’ command to the socket, build a dictionary structure and check if ‘Name’ key is present in the dictionary to confirm that there is a HAProxy process connected to it.
- Parameters:
path (
string
) – file name pathtimeout (
float
) – timeout for the connection, in seconds
- Returns:
True
is socket file is a valid HAProxy stats socket file False otherwise- Return type:
bool
- haproxyadmin.utils.converter(value)¶
Tries to convert input value to an integer.
If input can be safely converted to number it returns an
int
type. If input is a valid string but not an empty one it returns that. In all other cases we return None, including the ones which anTypeError
exception is raised byint()
. For floating point numbers, it truncates towards zero.Why are we doing this? HAProxy may return for a metric either a number or zero or string or an empty string.
It is up to the caller to correctly use the returned value. If the returned value is passed to a function which does math operations the caller has to filtered out possible
None
values.- Parameters:
value (
string
) – a value to convert to int.- Return type:
integer or ``string
orNone
if value can’t be converted toint
or tostring
.
Usage:
>>> from haproxyadmin import utils >>> utils.converter('0') 0 >>> utils.converter('13.5') 13 >>> utils.converter('13.5f') '13.5f' >>> utils.converter('') >>> utils.converter(' ') >>> utils.converter('UP') 'UP' >>> utils.converter('UP 1/2') 'UP 1/2' >>>
- haproxyadmin.utils.elements_of_list_same(iterator)¶
Check is all elements of an iterator are equal.

>>> from haproxyadmin import utils >>> iterator = ['OK', 'ok'] >>> utils.elements_of_list_same(iterator) False >>> iterator = ['OK', 'OK'] >>> utils.elements_of_list_same(iterator) True >>> iterator = [22, 22, 22] >>> utils.elements_of_list_same(iterator) True >>> iterator = [22, 22, 222] >>> utils.elements_of_list_same(iterator) False
- haproxyadmin.utils.info2dict(raw_info)¶

bool
- Raise:
ValueError
when value can’t be converted to an integer
- haproxyadmin.utils.should_die(old_implementation)¶
Build a decorator to control exceptions.
When a function raises an exception in some cases we don’t care for the reason but only if the function run successfully or not. We add an extra argument to the decorated function with the name
die
to control this behavior. When it is set toTrue
, which is the default value, it raises any exception raised by the decorated function. When it is set toFalse
it returnsTrue
if decorated function run successfully orFalse
if an exception was raised.
