OOP Bindings

I got inspired by Django and decided to implement a bit of their object model on top of the base Linode bindings. Thankfully the API is already pretty object oriented. A quick example of usage:

from oop import *

for d in Domain.list():
  print d.name
  for record in Resource.list(domain=d):
    print "\t%s\t%s\t%s" % (record.name, record.type, record.target)

results in

example.com
		A	127.0.0.1
	www	A	127.0.0.1
	mail	A	127.0.0.1
		MX	mail.example.com
	trac	CNAME	www.example.com
	svn	CNAME	trac.example.com

There is a class for each of the sections listed on the main API documentation page. A list (that may change in the future) of the classes currently available:

• Linode
• LinodeConfig
• LinodeDisk
• LinodeIP
• LinodeJob
• LinodePlan
• Datacenter
• Distribution
• Kernel
• Domain
• Resource

These classes (depending on their underlying abilities) have save/delete/list/get methods. To list all the configs for instance you may do: LinodeConfig.list(linode=l) where l is either a Linode object or an integer. The list() methods returns a generator object, and get() returns a specific object. There is also a builtin cache.
