py_viptela

A Python SDK for Cisco SD-WAN vManage API(20.6.2)

This is a wrapper around Cisco's vManage API. All endpoints in the API are implemented. There's a similar solution provided by Cisco and can be accessed from DevNet website

Also from github

There's a separate repo for a postman collection to use with vManage API. That collection included all endpoints and can be found here

• Why another solution?

  It's a great way to learn new things by building things.

• Is it completed or a work-in-progress project?

  This started as a hobby project and still in progress.

• How can I use this?

  A How-To document will be available after phase-1, which is implementing all the API endpoints, is completed.

• Contributions?

  Highly appreciated and welcome.

All Endpoints in vManage API are implemented using the vmanage.json file available through vmanage/apidocs page as a reference

How to install using pip

pip install py-viptela

How to Use

• Clone this repo into your computer.

git clone https://github.com/aatikturk/py-viptela

• Change directory to "py-viptela"

cd py-viptela

• Import vmanage module and initiate an instance, and import any api module
  Required parameters are as follows:
  host: Ip address of the vManage
  port: port to access vmanage
  username: vManage username
  password: vManage password

>>>from py_viptela.vmanage import Vmanage
>>>from py_viptela import api
>>>
>>>vmanage = Vmanage(host='198.18.1.10', port=443, username='admin', password='testpassword')
>>>vmanage.login()

You're ready to make requests using api endpoints.

Example: Get all users from the vManage

>>>
>>>users = api.admin.user.findUsers(vmanage)
>>>
>>>users
[{'userName': 'admin', 'locale': 'en_US', 'group': []},
 {'userName': 'dclouddemo',
  'description': 'Administrator',
  'locale': 'en_US',
  'resGroupName': 'global',
  'group': ['netadmin']}]
