Command line tool for EOS
Goal: take in a list of eos devices in json format, execute cli command via eapi against them all and return the result in a series of text files Inputs: json file, command, output directory Outputs: multiple text files for each switch and command run + timestamp? Note: user may need to create a directory called "output" in their cloned repo, until further development is done
e.g.
cat devices.json | eoscmd "show tech" -o ./showtech
=======
Device format is based on JSON verison of Ansible inventory list. Here is an example file: (devices.json)[devices.json]. If not using a pipe, it will optionally look for a devices.json file in the local directory
- TODO: Make this a cli parameter
-f devices.json
Can be specified in the devices JSON mentioned above. Or can be specified as environment variables EAPI_USERNAME, EAPI_PASSWORD. Device file and pipes override the environment variables.
Output is directed to a path given by the -o parameter
