Python client for Gnetcli GRPC server

Gnetcli provides a universal way to execute arbitrary commands using a CLI, eliminating the need for screen scraping with expect.

See documentation on gnetcli server.

Example:

from gnetclisdk.client import Credentials, Gnetcli, HostParams
import os, asyncio

async def example():
    api = Gnetcli(insecure_grpc=True)
    # api = Gnetcli(insecure_grpc=True, auth_token="Basic " + base64.b64encode(f"{username}:{password}".encode('utf-8')).decode("ascii")
    dev_creds = Credentials(os.environ.get("LOGIN"), os.environ.get("PASSWORD"))
    res = await api.cmd(hostname="myhost", cmd="dis clock", host_params=HostParams(device="huawei", credentials=dev_creds))
    print("err=%s status=%s out=%s" % (res.error, res.status, res.out))

asyncio.run(example())

Output:

err=b'' status=0 out=b'2023-11-10 09:31:58\nFriday\nTime Zone(UTC) : UTC'

Tests

From this directory, with Go on PATH (to build gnetcli_server and gswitch):

python3 -m venv .venv && . .venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt -r requirements-test.txt -e .
pytest tests/

Optional: GNETCLI_TEST_PREBUILT_DIR — directory that already contains gnetcli_server and gswitch binaries (skip go build in tests).
