Get project retention policy

Fetching the retention policy for a given project is somewhat convoluted in the API, as there is no endpoint that directly returns the retention policy for a given project. Normally, we would have to fetch the project, inspect its metadata, and then fetch the retention policy using the ID from the metadata.

harborapi adds the helper method get_project_retention_id for fetching the retention policy ID for a given project. With this method, we can first fetch the retention policy ID, and then use that ID to fetch the retention policy itself.

import asyncio

from harborapi import HarborAsyncClient

client = HarborAsyncClient(...)


async def main() -> None:
    # Get the retention policy ID for the project "library"
    project_name = "library"
    retention_id = await client.get_project_retention_id(project_name)
    if not retention_id:
        print(f"No retention policy found for project {project_name!r}")
        exit(1)

    # Get the retention policy for the project "library"
    policy = await client.get_retention_policy(retention_id)

    # work with the policy...
    print(policy)


asyncio.run(main())
