What it is and what it does
This is the official Azure SDK management client for Event Hubs, providing Python bindings to create, configure, and manage Event Hub namespaces, individual hubs, consumer groups, authorization rules, and related infrastructure through the Azure Resource Manager API. It requires authentication via Microsoft Entra using environment variables or credential objects.
Version 12.0.0 introduces a significant structural change: model properties are now nested under a `properties` object rather than exposed at the top level, which improves consistency with Azure's REST API but requires code migration for existing users. The package supports Python 3.10+ and depends on isodate, azure-mgmt-core, and typing-extensions.
Use it for
- Automate provisioning and teardown of Event Hub namespaces and hubs in CI/CD pipelines.
- Programmatically configure consumer groups and authorization rules for event processing applications.
- Manage disaster recovery settings, network security perimeter configurations, and TLS versions for Event Hub resources.
- Monitor and update Event Hub properties such as partition counts, message retention, and auto-inflate settings.
- Integrate Event Hub resource management into infrastructure-as-code tools and cloud automation frameworks.
