From:
http://docs.python-requests.org/en/latest/

Installing Pip and Requests on Nutanix Controller VM/or any Linux system:
curl -O https://raw.github.com/pypa/pip/master/contrib/get-pip.py
 sudo python get-pip.py
sudo pip install requests
sudo pip install requests --upgrade
 cd /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/;sudo chmod -R 755 requests-1.2.3-py2.6.egg/
PYTHONPATH=${PYTHONPATH}:/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/requests-1.2.3-py2.6.egg;export PYTHONPATH


Sample Script:
 cat test_resp.py - to print container info

#!/usr/bin/python
import json as json
import requests

def main():
  base_url = "https://10.3.101.59:9440/PrismGateway/services/rest/v1/"
  s = requests.Session()
  s.auth = ('admin', 'admin')
  s.headers.update({'Content-Type': 'application/json; charset=utf-8'})

  print s.get(base_url + 'vstores', verify=False).json()

if __name__ == "__main__":
  main()


Output

./test_resp.py

  s = requests.Session()
  s.auth = ('admin', 'admin')
  s.headers.update({'Content-Type': 'application/json; charset=utf-8'})

  data = s.get(base_url + 'storage_pools', verify=False).json()
  spname= data ["entities"][0]["name"]
  size= data ["entities"][0]["capacity"]
  print spname,size/(1024*1024*1024*1024)
if __name__ == "__main__":
  main()
