- remove the old username and password from the `.stagingrc` file
- The script is Python2 compatible, there is a Dockerfile available for Python2 testing in `./tests/docker`
- The requests library is a required dependency. If you care about Python2 compatability, you can use at most version 2.22.0 of requests. Otherwise, you can install any version (note: you can also `pip install -r 'requirements.txt'`, which will install version 2.22.0)
### Deprecated functions: Due to changes in the backend, some functions have been deprecated. Those can be called, but this will result in a warning and raise a `NotImplementedError`. The following tables shows the functions together with the rationale to deprecate them:
|function | reason |
| ------------- | ------------- |
| get_stuck_requests(min_retries, days_without_activity) | `stuck` status does not exist anymore |
| reschedule_on_status() | failed jobs reschedule automatically for a few times before failing, manual reschedule still possible|
| get_storage_info() | this is not really user functionality and has been superseded by views for the operators |
| reschedule_on_hold() | `on hold` status does not exist anymore |
| print_on_hold() | `on hold` status does not exist anymore |
| reschedule_aborted() | `aborted` status does not exist anymore |
