#initialize(node) ⇒ Entity

The Entity class provides a base class implementation for building API modules. The Entity class is typically not instantiated directly but serves as a super class with convenience methods used to work with the node.

Parameters:

  • :node (Node)

    This should be an instance of Rbeapi::Client::Node that is used to send and receive eAPI messages

end

Instance Attribute Details

#configString (readonly)

Returns the running configuration from the node instance. This is a convenience method to easily access the current running config from an API module

Returns:

  • (String)

    The current running-config from the node

#errorRbeapi::Eapilib::CommandError (readonly)

Provides a convenience method for access the connection error (if one exists) of the node’s connection instance

Class Method Details

.instance(node) ⇒ Object

Construct the node.

Parameters:

  • :node (Node)

    An instance of Rbeapi::Client::Node used to send and receive eAPI messages

Instance Method Details

#command_builder(cmd, opts = {}) ⇒ String

Method called to build the correct version of a command based on the modifier options. If value option is set then it is appended to the command. If the enable option is false then the ‘no’ keyword is prefixed to the command. If the default value is provided and set to true, then the default keyword is used. If both options are provided, then default option takes precedence.

Parameters:

  • :commands (String, Array)

    The commands to send to the node over the API connection to configure the system

  • :opts (Hash)

    the options for the command

Returns:

  • (String)

    Returns built command string

def command_builder(cmd, opts = {})
  enable = opts.fetch(:enable, true)
  default = opts.fetch(:default, false)
  cmd << " #{opts[:value]}" if opts[:value]
  return "default #{cmd}" if default
  return "no #{cmd}" unless enable
  cmd
end

#configure(commands) ⇒ Boolean

Method called to send configuration commands to the node. This method will send the commands to the node and rescue from CommandError or ConnectionError.

Parameters:

  • :commands (String, Array)

    The commands to send to the node over the API connection to configure the system

Returns:

  • (Boolean)

    Returns True if the commands were successful or returns False if there was an error issuing the commands on the node. Use error to further investigate the cause of any errors

  return true
rescue Rbeapi::Eapilib::CommandError, Rbeapi::Eapilib::ConnectionError
  return false
end

#configure_interface(name, commands) ⇒ Boolean

configure_interface sends the commands over eAPI to the destination node to configure a specific interface.

Parameters:

  • :name (String)

    The interface name to apply the configuration to. The name value must be the full interface identifier

  • :commands (Array)

    The list of commands to configure the interface

Returns:

  • (Boolean)

    Returns true if the commands complete successfully

  commands = [*commands]
  commands.insert(0, "interface #{name}")
  configure commands
end

#get_block(text) ⇒ Object

Returns a block of configuration from the current running config as a string. The argument is used to search the config and return the text along with any child configuration statements.

Parameters:

  • :text (String)

    The text to be used to find the parent line in the nodes configuration.
