Support Projects

[andrewheiss]

On July 25, 2018, DigitalOcean added support for Projects. Currently, the API doesn't support anything with projects, but they say it will eventually in 2018.

When the API eventually supports them, it'd be cool to have a new argument in droplet_create() to create new images in a specific project (which would allow users to better separate the temporary images they might create with R from more important production images in their account)

Excellent idea @andrewheiss. I've been beta testing Projects for a bit and they're snazzy. Adding support for setting the Project for a new Droplet makes sense as the Dashboard lets you do this currently. And I suppose this would also extend to the creation of all other first-class DO resources (Spaces, Images, etc.). Other things I can imagine their API having (and analogsea supporting) might include:

• Create / edit / delete Project
• Fetching Project activity
• Move resources into Project / remove resources from Project

Any thoughts or other ideas?

thanks @andrewheiss - good idea. & thx @amoeba - i hadn't seen them yet, looks neat. I guess we'll wait to see it come out in the API

[andrewheiss]

@amoeba I think that all sounds great, as long as the API supports them.

Projects are in the API https://developers.digitalocean.com/documentation/v2/#projects but it doesn't look like there's a way to assign to a project in the create droplet endpoint, though it does look like you can create a droplet, then assign to a project

Hi @andrewheiss. While I'm not a manager or similar at DO, I have sent your request to a contact there, because I talked about this to him some time ago.

Here's an updated link to the Projects documentation.

thx, there's still no parameter to create droplets outside the default project https://docs.digitalocean.com/reference/api/api-reference/#operation/droplets_create
