The same can be done with python SDK:

mgmt.tm.sys.crypto.keys.key.create(name='www.testing.com.key', options=[{"gen-csr":"www.testing.com"}], commonName='www.testing.com', country='BE', city='Brussels', organization='AEL Lab', ou='IT', subjectAlternativeName='DNS:www.testing.com, DNS:testing.com')

But couldn't find a way to retrieve the CSR file or text directly with SDK? I guess we have to go via mgmt.tm.util.bash.exec_cmd
