The openshift package can be used to interact with OpenShift in Python. pip install can be used to install the OpenShift package.

pip install openshift

You may want to first check out my article FreeKB - OpenShift - Login into OpenShift using Python.

And here is an example of how you could log into OpenShift with a username and password and list all Persistent Volumes.

from kubernetes import client
from openshift.dynamic import DynamicClient
from openshift.helper.userpassauth import OCPLoginConfiguration

apihost  = 'https://api.openshift.example.com:6443'
username = 'john.doe'
password = 'itsasecret'

kubeConfig = OCPLoginConfiguration(ocp_username=username, ocp_password=password)
kubeConfig.host = apihost
kubeConfig.verify_ssl = False
kubeConfig.get_token()

k8s_client = client.ApiClient(kubeConfig)
dyn_client = DynamicClient(k8s_client)

v1_persisent_volume_claims = dyn_client.resources.get(api_version='v1', kind='PersistentVolumeClaim')
persisent_volume_claims = v1_persisent_volume_claims.get()

for persisent_volume_claim in persisent_volume_claims.items:
  print(persisent_volume_claim)

Here is a bit more of a practical example with try / except / else error handling.

import sys
from kubernetes import client
from openshift.dynamic import DynamicClient
from openshift.helper.userpassauth import OCPLoginConfiguration

apihost  = 'https://api.openshift.example.com:6443'
username = 'john.doe'
password = 'itsasecret'

kubeConfig = OCPLoginConfiguration(ocp_username=username, ocp_password=password)
kubeConfig.host = apihost
kubeConfig.verify_ssl = False
kubeConfig.get_token()

k8s_client = client.ApiClient(kubeConfig)
dyn_client = DynamicClient(k8s_client)

try:
  v1_persisent_volume_claims = dyn_client.resources.get(api_version='v1', kind='PersistentVolumeClaim')
except ApiException as exception:
  print(f"got the following exception - {exception}")
  sys.exit(1)
  
persisent_volume_claims = v1_persisent_volume_claims.get()

for persisent_volume_claim in persisent_volume_claims.items:
  print(persisent_volume_claim

And here is now you could list a specific Persistent Volume.

persisent_volume_claim = v1_persisent_volume_claims.get(name='my-persistent-volume-claim')

And here is how you can print a specific key in the response using dot notation.

persisent_volume_claim = v1_persisent_volume_claims.get(name='my-persistent-volume-claim')
print(persisent_volume_claim.metadata.name)

Or like this.

persisent_volume_claim = v1_persisent_volume_claims.get(name='my-persistent-volume-claim')
print(persisent_volume_claim['metadata']['name'])
