This repo is for two open-source integrations that will update and maintain in sync Cisco DNA Center Projects and CLI templates with GitHub and GitLab Repos hosting the templates files. The Repos will be used as a single source of truth for all desired settings, templates and profiles, providing consistent configurations across multiple Cisco DNA Center Clusters, lab and production.
Cisco Products & Services:
- Cisco DNA Center, devices managed by Cisco DNA Center
- Cisco DNA Center Python SDK
Tools & Frameworks:
- Python environment to run the application
- GitHub and GitLab accounts, private token and repos
- Optional: CI/CD platform if desired to automate the process
Usage
Usage details for each integration are provided in the README.md files from the folder of the integration.
Sample Output GitHub Sync:
# Cisco DNA Center
DNAC_URL = 'https://dnacenter'
DNAC_USER = 'user'
DNAC_PASS = 'password'
DNAC_PROJECT = 'Cisco DNA Center Project'
# GitHub
GITHUB_TOKEN = 'token' # GitHub access token
GITHUB_USERNAME = 'user'
GITHUB_REPO = 'repo'
