from pydocumentdb import documents

Shows how to initialize the legacy DocumentDB client. This code is for the `pydocumentdb` package, which is no longer maintained. Users are strongly advised to migrate to `azure-cosmos` for any new development or existing applications connecting to Azure Cosmos DB.

import os from pydocumentdb.document_client import DocumentClient # These environment variables would be for an *old* DocumentDB account. # Modern Azure Cosmos DB accounts use the azure-cosmos SDK. HOST = os.environ.get("DOCUMENTDB_HOST", "https://your-old-documentdb-account.documents.azure.com:443/") MASTER_KEY = os.environ.get("DOCUMENTDB_MASTER_KEY", "YOUR_OLD_MASTER_KEY") if not HOST or not MASTER_KEY or HOST == "https://your-old-documentdb-account.documents.azure.com:443/": print("Warning: Skipping DocumentDB client init. Please set DOCUMENTDB_HOST and DOCUMENTDB_MASTER_KEY for an *old* DocumentDB account.") else: try: client = DocumentClient(HOST, {'masterKey': MASTER_KEY}) print(f"Successfully initialized legacy DocumentDB client for host: {HOST}") # Example: Read databases (requires an active old DocumentDB account) # databases = list(client.ReadDatabases()) # print(f"Found {len(databases)} databases.") except Exception as e: print(f"Error initializing legacy DocumentDB client: {e}")

Known footguns

breakingThe `pydocumentdb` library is officially abandoned and has been replaced by `azure-cosmos`. No new features, bug fixes, or security updates are being released for `pydocumentdb`.

gotchaConnecting to modern Azure Cosmos DB accounts using `pydocumentdb` will likely fail or have limited functionality, as the API versions, authentication methods, and underlying protocols have evolved significantly.

deprecatedWhile `pydocumentdb` might have worked with Python 2, modern Azure SDKs (including `azure-cosmos`) only support Python 3.7+. Attempting to use `pydocumentdb` with Python 2 is unsupported and discouraged.
