Hello list,
I'm implementing an API for a full virtualization solution with proxmox.
Isn't that the Proxmox API2 already? :-)
For a simple usage (create CT, start, reboot, ...) i need to get a
ticket each API call.
As i know the ticket validity is 2 hours.
Jokes aside, exactly, but the validity works so, that it only get's
invalid if not in use for 2 hours or when logging out.
So you could generate it and use it as long as valid, and if you didn't
fire up an API call for 2 hours catch the invalid ticket error and
request a new one.
Would be definitively the nicer and cleaner way, in my opinion.
My question is; is it better to save the ticket and use it for 2 hours?
Are there an inconvenient when generating a new ticket each api call
even when there will be a lot of calls?
If you plan to fire up a few thousands API calls it would be good if you
can avoid generating a new ticket each time, else you have to try it
(write a simple benchmark which loops on ticket generations and simple
API calls to see how your server performs).
cheers,
Thomas
