--- title: "Python" date: 2019-03-13T18:28:09-07:00 draft: false weight: 2 --- Here is some overview about using the Python commands an shell and some examples below: * [Hue API: Execute some builtin or shell commands](http://gethue.com/hue-api-execute-some-builtin-commands/). * [How to manage the Hue database with the shell](http://gethue.com/how-to-manage-the-hue-database-with-the-shell/). ## Users ### Making a user admin Via the Hue shell: build/env/bin/hue shell Then type something similar to: from django.contrib.auth.models import User a = User.objects.get(username='hdfs') a.is_staff = True a.is_superuser = True a.set_password('my_secret') a.save() ### Changing user password In the Hue shell: from django.contrib.auth.models import User user = User.objects.get(username='example') user.set_password('some password') user.save() ### Counting user documents On the command line: ./build/env/bin/hue shell If using Cloudera Manager, as a *root* user launch the shell. Export the configuration directory: export HUE_CONF_DIR="/var/run/cloudera-scm-agent/process/`ls -alrt /var/run/cloudera-scm-agent/process | grep HUE_SERVER | tail -1 | awk '{print $9}'`" echo $HUE_CONF_DIR > /var/run/cloudera-scm-agent/process/2061-hue-HUE_SERVER Get the process id: lsof -i :8888|grep -m1 hue|awk '{ print $2 }' > 14850 In order to export all Hue's env variables: for line in `strings /proc/$(lsof -i :8888|grep -m1 hue|awk '{ print $2 }')/environ|egrep -v "^HOME=|^TERM=|^PWD="`;do export $line;done And finally launch the shell by: HUE_IGNORE_PASSWORD_SCRIPT_ERRORS=1 /opt/cloudera/parcels/CDH/lib/hue/build/env/bin/hue shell > ALERT: This appears to be a CM Managed environment > ALERT: HUE_CONF_DIR must be set when running hue commands in CM Managed environment > ALERT: Please run 'hue --cm-managed' Then use the Python code to access a certain user information: Python 2.7.6 (default, Oct 26 2016, 20:30:19) Type "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
