Error with Custom Object Not Making It Back Through StackStorm CLI

[chavenor]

We tested my key on seperate StackStorm systems. No results were present for any of the API calls.

cat << "EOF" > /opt/stackstorm/packs/digitalocean/actions/get_all_droplets.py
import digitalocean
from st2actions.runners.pythonrunner import Action


class GetAllDropletsAction(Action):

    def __init__(self, config):
        super(GetAllDropletsAction, self).__init__(config)
        self._token = config['token']

    def run(self, **kwargs):
        manager = digitalocean.Manager(token=self._token)
        return manager.get_all_droplets()
EOF

The results from the API package need to be modified to standard python objects.

Investigation

The get_all_droplets action is completing successfully, however returning no results.

I then created a simply python test to confirm that the token we were using was correct and had valid permissions:

import digitalocean
manager = digitalocean.Manager(token="secretspecialuniquesnowflake")
my_droplets = manager.get_all_droplets()
print(my_droplets)

This printed:

[<Droplet: 46166796 sendy>]

As you can see the API call is returning a list of digitalocean.Droplet objects, and when returned from the action StackStorm doesn't know what to do with them, so they're dropped.

Solution

Convert the digitalocean.Droplet objects into lists and dicts so that StackStorm can work with them.
