omnivista_py - An API Client for the Alcatel-Lucent OmniVista 2500

a Python library that simplifies interaction with the OmniVista API.

omnivista_py allows easy management of network devices, and querying of performance data. With integrated error handling and optional logging

Installation

Using PyPi

pip install omnivista_py

Usage example

With omnivista_py, it has never been easier to search for a device and retrieve information about it.

Here is an example of how to initialize the client, search for 3 devices using three different attributes, and then print out their software version, configured IP interfaces, and the current directory they are running in.

from omnivista_py import OVClient, Device

client = OVClient(
    url="https://omnivista.com",
    username="your_username",
    password="your_password"
)
client.login

device1 = client.Device(client, ip_address="192.168.1.1")
device2 = client.Device(client, hostname="myalcateldevice")
device3 = client.Device(client, mac_address="3a:5f:1c:7e:2b:9d")

devices = [device1, device2, device3]

for device in devices:
    print(device.get_software_version())
    print(device.get_ip_interfaces())
    print(device.get_running_directory())
