Common errors

error AttributeError: module 'alibabacloud_rds20140815' has no attribute 'Client' ↓

cause Trying to import Client from package root instead of client submodule.

fix

Use: from alibabacloud_rds20140815.client import Client

error ImportError: cannot import name 'RuntimeOptions' from 'alibabacloud_rds20140815.models' ↓

cause RuntimeOptions is not part of the RDS SDK; it belongs to alibabacloud_tea_openapi.

fix

Use: from alibabacloud_tea_openapi.models import RuntimeOptions

error TypeError: __init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'access_key_id' ↓

cause Directly passing access_key_id to Client constructor instead of a Config object.

fix

Wrap credentials in a Config object: Client(Config(access_key_id=..., ...))

Warnings

breaking Dropped Python 2.7 support; requires Python >=3.7. ↓

fix Use Python 3.7+.

breaking Constructor arguments for Client changed from positional to keyword-only Config object. ↓

fix Pass a Config object: Client(Config(...)).

deprecated `DescribeDBInstancesRequest` is deprecated; use `DescribeDBInstancesRequestV2` for newer features. ↓

fix Check the model index for the latest request class.

gotcha Region ID is required in Config even for global endpoints. ↓

fix Always set region_id in Config.

Quickstart

Initialize client and list RDS instances.

import os
from alibabacloud_rds20140815.client import Client
from alibabacloud_rds20140815.models import DescribeDBInstancesRequest
from alibabacloud_tea_openapi.models import Config

config = Config(
    access_key_id=os.environ.get('ALIBABA_CLOUD_ACCESS_KEY_ID', ''),
    access_key_secret=os.environ.get('ALIBABA_CLOUD_ACCESS_KEY_SECRET', ''),
    region_id='cn-hangzhou'
)
client = Client(config)
request = DescribeDBInstancesRequest()
response = client.describe_db_instances(request)
print(response.body)
