Bluecat BAM API Wrapper

Installation

Supported on python 2.7, no promises on 3.x

You can clone the repo, change to the top-level directory (with the setup.py file) and use pip to install the local files in "editable" mode (-e).

git clone https://github.com/ForrestT/pyBluecat.git
cd pybluecat
pip install --user .

---

How to Use

The library can be used within python

import pybluecat

bam = pybluecat.BAM(hostname, username, password)  

network_obj = bam.get_network('10.97.12.0')

ip_obj = bam.get_ip_address('10.97.12.101')

bam.logout()

In an interactive python interpreter, use help() to play with the available methods

>>> from pybluecat import BAM
>>> help(BAM)

You can also just use the CLI scripts interactively (use -h, --help)

bluecat --help

    usage: Bluecat CLI Tool [-h] {static,dhcp,search} ...

    optional arguments:
      -h, --help            show this help message and exit

        dhcp                dhcp IP record manipulation
