BSM Builder

NOTE: This repo is an example of working with the OpenNMS REST API for building Business Services. This repo is provided as is.

Getting Started

• Install Python dependencies.

  • pip3 install -r requirements.txt

• Create a .env file and set values to connect to your server.

  • bsm_hostname=http://localhost:8980)
  • bsm_username=admin
  • bsm_password=admin

• ALTERNATIVELY, you can set those three values as environment variables instead of creating a .env file.

See bsm_builder.py for an example. In this file, there verify the values for CRITICAL_SERVICES and MANUFACTURERS match values on your nodes.

Logging

The bsm_builder.py script will append logs to a logs/bsm_topo_YYYY-MM-DD.log file. This file can be changed by specifying a full path to a file with the log_file environment variable (via .env). If the filename contains the string DATE, it will be replaced with the current date in the format YYYY-MM-DD.
