Activate and Deactivate - Gravix Layer

Deactivate a snapshot when you want to keep it but stop new creates. Activate it again when you are ready to use it. Sandboxes that already started from the snapshot keep running.

Deactivate

POST /v1/agents/snapshots/{id}/deactivate

from gravixlayer import GravixLayer

client = GravixLayer()  # defaults to cloud="aws", region="us-east-1"

snap = client.snapshots.deactivate("after-warmup")
print(snap.state, snap.is_active)  # inactive, False

import { GravixLayer } from 'gravixlayer';

const client = new GravixLayer(); // defaults to cloud="aws", region="us-east-1"

const snap = await client.snapshots.deactivate("after-warmup");
console.log(snap.state, snap.isActive); // inactive, false

print(snap.state, snap.is_active)  # active, True

sandbox = client.runtime.create(snapshot="after-warmup")
sandbox.kill()

import { GravixLayer } from 'gravixlayer';

const client = new GravixLayer(); // defaults to cloud="aws", region="us-east-1"

const snap = await client.snapshots.activate("after-warmup");
console.log(snap.state, snap.isActive); // active, true

const sandbox = await client.runtime.create({ snapshot: 'after-warmup' }); // defaults to template="base-small"
await sandbox.kill();
