Install the Azure SDK libraries:

pip install azure-storage-file-datalake

Import the required libraries:

import os, uuid, sys
from azure.storage.filedatalake import DataLakeServiceClient
from azure.core._match_conditions import MatchConditions
from azure.storage.filedatalake._models import ContentSettings

Initialize the account storage through connection string method:

def initialize_storage_account_connect_str(my_connection_string):
    
    try:  
        global service_client
        print(my_connection_string)
   
        service_client = DataLakeServiceClient.from_connection_string(conn_str=my_connection_string, headers={'x-ms-version': '2020-02-10'})
    
    except Exception as e:
        print(e)

Prepare the connection string:

def prepare_connect_str():
    try:
        
        connect_str = "DefaultEndpointsProtocol=https;AccountName=${privacera_access_key}-{storage_account_name};AccountKey=${base64_encoded_value_of(privacera_access_key|privacera_secret_key)};BlobEndpoint=https://ds.privaceracloud.com;"
        
       # sample value is shown below
       #connect_str = "DefaultEndpointsProtocol=https;AccountName=MMTTU5Njg4Njk0MDAwA6amFpLnBhdGVsOjE6MTY1MTU5Njg4Njk0MDAw==-pqadatastorage;AccountKey=TVRVNUTU5Njg4Njk0MDAwTURBd01UQTZhbUZwTG5CaGRHVnNPakU2TVRZMU1URTJOVGcyTnpVMTU5Njg4Njk0MDAwVZwLzNFbXBCVEZOQWpkRUNxNmpYcjTU5Njg4Njk0MDAwR3Q4N29UNFFmZWpMOTlBN1M4RkIrSjdzSE5IMFZic0phUUcyVHTU5Njg4Njk0MDAwUxnPT0=;BlobEndpoint=https://ds.privaceracloud.com;"

        return connect_str
    except Exception as e:
      print(e)

Define a sample access method to get Azure file and directories:

def list_directory_contents(connect_str):
    try:
        initialize_storage_account_connect_str(connect_str)
        
        file_system_client = service_client.get_file_system_client(file_system="{storage_container_name}")
        #sample values as shown below
        #file_system_client = service_client.get_file_system_client(file_system="infraqa-test")

        paths = file_system_client.get_paths(path="{directory_path}")
        #sample values as shown below
        #paths = file_system_client.get_paths(path="file data/data/format=csv/sample/")

        for path in paths:
            print(path.name + '\n')

    except Exception as e:
      print(e)

To verify that the proxy is functioning, call the access methods:

connect_str = prepare_connect_str()
list_directory_contents(connect_str)
