# arango

A simple Python wrapper for connecting to and interacting with ArangoDB.

## Installation

Install dependencies:

```bash
pip install -r requirements.txt
```

You also need to install `env_manager` to help set up environment variables for ArangoDB:

```bash
pip install git+https://github.com/lasseedfast/env_manager.git
```

## Usage

Environment variables:

- `ARANGO_HOST`
- `ARANGO_DB`
- `ARANGO_USERNAME`
- `ARANGO_PWD`

The package will use `env_manager` to set them automatically (first time you may need to provide a password).

Example:

```python
from _arango import arango

results = arango.execute_aql("FOR doc IN my_collection RETURN doc")
```

## AdminArango: Database and User Administration

The `AdminArango` class provides administrative functionality for ArangoDB, such as creating and deleting databases, managing users, and setting permissions. It connects to the `_system` database for these operations.

Example usage:

```python
from _arango.arango import AdminArango

admin = AdminArango()
admin.create_database("mydb")
admin.create_user("username", password="secret")
admin.set_user_permission("username", "rw", "mydb")
admin.list_databases()
admin.delete_user("username")
admin.delete_database("mydb")
```

Features:
- Create and delete databases
- List all databases
- Create and delete users
- Set user permissions for databases and collections

## Using as a Base for Your Own Project

If you want to use this package as a starting point for your own ArangoDB utilities, you can clone the repository:

```bash
git clone https://git.edfast.se/lasse/arango.git
```

You can then add your own methods and modify the code as needed. If you do not plan to sync changes back to the original repository, consider to remove or change the remote origin to avoid accidentally pushing changes to the original repo:
  ```bash
  git remote remove origin
  ```
