ID -> Name translator for the CloudGenix Python SDK
Project description
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.
Simple usage:
idname_dict = cloudgenix_idname.generate_id_name_map(cgx_sess)
# takes 30-40 seconds to generate.
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".
Efficient usage:
# create constructor to make and cache queries
idname = cloudgenix_idname.CloudGenixIDName(cgx_sess)
# get just VPN id to name maps.
vpnpaths_id_to_name = idname.generate_anynets_map()
# takes < 3 seconds to generate
# query for VPN
vpn_link_id = '15136303805980148'
print ('My VPN link is "{}".'.format(vpnpaths_id_to_name.get(vpn_link_id, vpn_link_id)))
# output: My VPN link is "SJC Branch ('AT&T' via 'Circuit to AT&T') <-> ('ATT2' via 'Circuit to ATT2') Charlotte DC".
# lets query a link that is new since last time.
new_vpn_link_id = '15136303805980182'
print ('My VPN link is "{}".'.format(vpnpaths_id_to_name.get(vpn_link_id, vpn_link_id)))
# output: My VPN link is "15136303805980182".
vpnpaths_id_to_name = idname.generate_anynets_map()
# takes < 0.1 seconds
print ('My VPN link is "{}".'.format(vpnpaths_id_to_name.get(vpn_link_id, vpn_link_id)))
# output: My VPN link is "SJC Branch ('Verizon' via 'Circuit to Verizon') <-> ('ATT2' via 'Circuit to ATT2') Charlotte DC".
