Network device configuration backups and change alerts for the 21st century - inspired by RANCID!

See: http://gosweet.org

##Features:

• Stores device configs in Git
• Simple configuration file
• Single binary - only runtime dependency is Git
• Email notifications
• Built-in web status dashboard
• Embedded Cisco IOS/ASA and Juniper JunOS support
• Supports external collection scripts (such as clogin, jlogin, etc.)
• Currently supports Linux and OSX

##Quickstart:

• Download the sweet binary for your system: https://github.com/AppliedTrust/sweet/releases
• Make it executable: chmod 755 sweet32
• Create a minimal sweet.conf file with device access info:

[router1.example.com]
method = cisco
user = sweetuser
pass = SecretPW4sweet

• Start sweet with: sweet32 --web sweet.conf
• Check out the web status at: http://localhost:5000

##Usage:

• All command-line flags can also be set in the config file.
• See the sample config for more options: https://github.com/AppliedTrust/sweet/blob/master/sweet-sample.conf
