This gem wraps certain operations with the Bluecat Address Management API via savon. I use this specifically to integrate with Foreman so there is a lot that this gem cannot do, yet. That said, I am open to pull requests to add more features.
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'bluecat'And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install bluecat
require 'bluecat'
require 'pp'
client = Bluecat::Client.new(wsdl: 'https://hostname/Services/API?wsdl')
client.login('api-username', 'api-password')
# This is the object ID of where to start
# your search.
container_id = 1
pp client.ip4_networks(container_id).to_a
client.logoutIt is a "best practice" (according to Bluecat's documentation) to logout at the end of a session. When I use this in other projects, I might expose it like so:
class SomeUseCase
# All access to API happens through this method
def bluecat
username = HammerCLI::Settings.get(:bluecat, :username)
password = HammerCLI::Settings.get(:bluecat, :password)
client = Bluecat::Client.new(wsdl: HammerCLI::Settings.get(:bluecat, :wsdl))
client.login(username, password)
yield client
client.logout
end
def execute
bluecat do |client|
# Do things with the client
client.ip4_networks(@container_id).take(10)
end
end
endIn this way, the client will log in and out for every operation. This may not be best for your use-case.
