cloudgenix-idname 1.2.0

ID -> Name translator for the CloudGenix Python SDK

ID -> Name Translator for CloudGenix

ID -> Name translator for the CloudGenix Python SDK

Synopsis

CloudGenix's API uses unique ID values for all objects.

This quick module utilizes the CloudGenix Python SDK to create a dictionary object containing most common object lists, referenced by ID.

Once this object is created (ex: idname_dict), this allows for quick lookup of names where IDs are present:

idname_dict = cloudgenix_idname.generate_id_name_map(cgx_sess)

vpn_link_id = '15136303805980148'
print ('My VPN link is "{}".'.format(idname_dict.get(vpn_link_id, vpn_link_id)))

My VPN link is "SJC Branch ('AT&T' via 'Circuit to AT&T') <-> ('ATT2' via 'Circuit to ATT2') Charlotte DC".

Requirements
