Digital ocean create snapshots - backups

backupOcean.py

import digitalocean
import random


api_key = 'REPLACE_API'


manager = digitalocean.Manager(token=api_key)


my_droplets = manager.get_all_droplets()

zmayDroplet=my_droplets[0]
zmayDroplet.take_snapshot('snapshot-'+str(random.randint(1,10000))) #this makes a snapshot
print "snapshot made"

snapshots=manager.get_all_snapshots()

if len(snapshots)>1:
	destroySnapshot=digitalocean.Snapshot.get_object(api_key, snapshots[0].id)
	destroySnapshot.destroy()
else:
	print "no snapshots to delete"

Ok thanks no worries
