Tool to import schedules saved as CSV files into PagerDuty

Project description

Import schedules from a CSV file. Currently supports weekly shift-based schedules and standard rotation-based schedules.

Usage

1. Create a CSV file with the following format depending upon your schedule type:

Weekly Shifts:

escalation_level,user_or_team,type,day_of_week,start_time,end_time

escalation_level (int): Level to place user/team on the escalation policy

user_or_team (str): The name/email of the user/team

type (str): Must be one of user, team

day_of_week (str or int): Must be one of 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, sunday, monday, tuesday, wednesday, thursday, friday, saturday, weekday, weekdays, weekend, weekends, all

start_time (str): Start time of the shift for that day (i.e. 13:00)

end_time (str): End time of the shift for that day (i.e. 21:00)

Standard Rotation:

user,layer,layer_name,rotation_type,shift_length,shift_type,handoff_day,handoff_time,restriction_start_day,restriction_start_time,restriction_end_date,restriction_end_time

user (str): The name/email of the user

layer (int): The schedule layer

layer_name (str): The name of the layer

rotation_type (str): The type of rotation. Can be one of daily, weekly, custom.

shift_length (int): Length of the on-call shift in a custom rotation

shift_type (str): The unit of measure for the shift_length. Can be one of hours, days, weeks.

handoff_day (str or int): The day of the week to handoff the on-call shift. Can be one of 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, monday, tuesday, wednesday, thursday, friday, saturday, sunday

handoff_time (str):The time of day to handoff the shift (i.e. 08:00)

restriction_start_day (str): Day of the week to start the restriction. Can be one of 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, monday, tuesday, wednesday, thursday, friday, saturday, sunday

restriction_start_time (str): Time of day to start the restriction (i.e. 08:00)

restriction_end_time (str): Time of day to end the restriction (i.e. 17:00)

2. Save all CSV files into one directory

3. If running from the command line, execute the import_schedules.py script with the command line arguments for your schedule type:

Weekly Shifts:

./scheduleduty/scheduleduty.py --schedule-type weekly_shifts --csv-dir examples/weekly_shifts --api-key EXAMPLE_TOKEN --base-name "Weekly Shifts" --level-name Level --multiple-name Multi --start-date 2017-01-01 --end-date 2017-02-01 --time-zone UTC --num-loops 1 --escalation-delay 30

Standard Rotation:

./scheduleduty/scheduleduty.py --schedule-type standard_rotation --csv-dir examples/standard_rotation --api-key EXAMPLE_TOKEN --base-name "Standard Rotation" --start-date 2017-01-01 --end-date 2017-02-01 --time-zone UTC

4. If importing into a script, use the execute function within the Import class to import your schedules:

Weekly Shifts:

from scheduleduty import scheduleduty
importer = scheduleduty.Import("weekly_shifts","./examples/weekly_shifts","EXAMPLE_TOKEN","Weekly Shifts","Level","Multi","2017-01-01","2017-02-01","UTC",1,30)
importer.execute()

Standard Rotation:

from scheduleduty import scheduleduty
importer = scheduleduty.Import("standard_rotation","./examples/standard_rotation","EXAMPLE_TOKEN","Standard Rotation",None,None,"2017-01-01","2017-02-01","UTC",None,None)
importer.execute()

--level-name: The base name for each new escalation policy level to be appended by the integer value of the level number. Required for weekly_shifts schedule type.

--multiple-name: The base name for each schedule on the same escalation policy level to be appended by the integer value of the schedule number. Required for weekly_shifts schedule type.

Testing

  1. Create a file config.json that includes your command-line arguments for testing:

    {
      "api_key": "EXAMPLE_KEY",
      "base_name": "Weekly Shifts",
      "level_name": "Level",
      "multi_name": "Multi",
      "start_date": "2017-01-01",
      "end_date": null,
      "time_zone": "UTC",
      "num_loops": 1,
      "escalation_delay": 30
    }
  2. Save config.json within the tests directory

  3. Run the test suite in test_suite.py:

    python tests/test_suite.py
