Client for interacting with Infoblox NIOS over WAPI.
- Free software: Apache license
- Documentation: https://infoblox-client.readthedocs.org.
Install infoblox-client using pip:
pip install infoblox-client
Configure logger prior to loading infoblox_client to get all debug messages in console:
import logging
logging.basicConfig(level=logging.DEBUG)Retrieve list of network views from NIOS:
from infoblox_client import connector
opts = {'host': '192.168.1.10', 'username': 'admin', 'password': 'admin'}
conn = connector.Connector(opts)
# get all network_views
network_views = conn.get_object('networkview')
# search network by cidr in specific network view
network = conn.get_object('network', {'network': '100.0.0.0/8', 'network_view': 'default'})For these request data is returned as list of dicts:
network_views:
[{u'_ref': u'networkview/ZG5zLm5ldHdvcmtfdmlldyQw:default/true',
u'is_default': True,
u'name': u'default'}]
network:
[{u'_ref': u'network/ZG5zLm5ldHdvcmskMTAwLjAuMC4wLzgvMA:100.0.0.0/8/default',
u'network': u'100.0.0.0/8',
u'network_view': u'default'}]Example of creating Network View, Network, DNS View, DNSZone and HostRecord using NIOS objects:
from infoblox_client import connector
from infoblox_client import objects
opts = {'host': '192.168.1.10', 'username': 'admin', 'password': 'admin'}
conn = connector.Connector(opts)Create a network view, and network:
nview = objects.NetworkView.create(conn, name='my_view')
network = objects.Network.create(conn, network_view='my_view', cidr='192.168.1.0/24')Create a DNS view and zone:
view = objects.DNSView.create(conn, network_view='my_view', name='my_dns_view')
zone = objects.DNSZone.create(conn, view='my_dns_view', fqdn='my_zone.com')Create a host record:
my_ip = objects.IP.create(ip='192.168.1.25', mac='aa:bb:cc:11:22:33')
hr = objects.HostRecord.create(conn, view='my_dns_view',
name='my_host_record.my_zone.com', ip=my_ip)Create host record with Extensible Attributes (EA):
ea = objects.EA({'Tenant ID': tenantid, 'CMP Type': cmptype,
'Cloud API Owned': True})
host = objects.HostRecord.create(conn, name='new_host', ip=my_ip, extattrs=ea)Create a host record with inherited Extensible Attributes (EA):
my_ip = objects.IP.create(ip='192.168.1.25', mac='aa:bb:cc:11:22:33', use_for_ea_inheritance=True)
hr = objects.HostRecord.create(conn, view='my_dns_view',
name='my_host_record.my_zone.com', ip=my_ip)Set the TTL to 30 minutes:
hr = objects.HostRecord.create(conn, view='my_dns_view',
name='my_host_record.my_zone.com', ip=my_ip,
ttl = 1800)Create a new host record, from the next available IP in a CIDR, with a MAC address, and DHCP enabled:
next = objects.IPAllocation.next_available_ip_from_cidr('default', '10.0.0.0/24')
my_ip = objects.IP.create(ip=next, mac='aa:bb:cc:11:22:33', configure_for_dhcp=True)
host = objects.HostRecord.create(conn, name='some.valid.fqdn', view='Internal', ip=my_ip)Reply from NIOS is parsed back into objects and contains next data:
In [22]: hr
Out[22]: HostRecordV4: _ref=record:host/ZG5zLmhvc3QkLjQuY29tLm15X3pvbmUubXlfaG9zdF9yZWNvcmQ:my_host_record.my_zone.com/my_dns_view, name=my_host_record.my_zone.com, ipv4addrs=[<infoblox_client.objects.IPv4 object at 0x7f7d6b0fe9d0>], view=my_dns_viewCreate a new fixed address, with a MS server DHCP reservation:
obj, created = objects.FixedAddress.create_check_exists(connector=conn,
ip='192.168.100.100',
mac='aa:bb:cc:11:22:33',
comment='My DHCP reservation',
name='My hostname',
network_view='default',
ms_server={'_struct': 'msdhcpserver',
'ipv4addr': '192.168.0.0'})Create a new fixed address, selecting it from the next available IP in a CIDR:
from infoblox_client.object_manager import InfobloxObjectManager
new_address = InfobloxObjectManager(conn).create_fixed_address_from_cidr(netview='default', mac='aa:bb:cc:11:22:33', cidr='10.0.0.0/24', extattrs=[])What you get back is a FixedAddressV4 object.
All top level objects support interface for CRUD operations. List of supported objects is defined in next section.
-
create(cls, connector, check_if_exists=True, update_if_exists=False, **kwargs)- Creates object on NIOS side.
Requires connector passed as the first argument,
check_if_existsandupdate_if_existsare optional. Object related fields are passed in as kwargs:field=value,field2=value2.
-
search(cls, connector, return_fields=None, search_extattrs=None, force_proxy=False, **kwargs)- Search single object on NIOS side, returns first object that match search criteria.
Requires connector passed as the first argument.
return_fieldscan be set to retrieve particular fields from NIOS, for examplereturn_fields=['view', 'name']. Ifreturn_fieldsis[]defaultreturn_fieldsare returned by NIOS side for currentwapi_version.search_extattrsis used to filter out results by extensible attributes.force_proxyforces search request to be processed on Grid Master (applies only in cloud environment)
-
search_all(cls, connector, return_fields=None, search_extattrs=None, force_proxy=False, **kwargs)- Search all objects on NIOS side that match search criteria. Returns a list of objects.
All other options are equal to
search().
-
update(self)- Update the object on NIOS side by pushing changes done in the local object.
-
delete(self)- Deletes the object from NIOS side.
All NIOS Objects are supported in the 0.6.1 version release. check infoblox_client/objects.py for description of the objects. Newly supported objects

Search for partial match is supported only by low-level API for now. Use '~' with field name to search by regular expressions. Not all fields support search by regular expression. Refer to wapidoc to find out complete list of fields that can be searched this way. Examples:
Find all networks that starts with '10.10.':
conn = connector.Connector(opts)
nw = conn.get_object('network', {'network~': '10.10.'})Find all host records that starts with '10.10.':
conn = connector.Connector(opts)
hr = conn.get_object('record:host', {'ipv4addr~': '10.10.'})Utilizing extensible attributes and searching on them can easily be done with the get_object function.
The default field in return_fields acts like the + does in WAPI.
> _return_fields+ Specified list of fields (comma separated) will be returned in addition
to the basic fields of the object (documented for each object).
This enables you to always get the default values in return, in addition to what you specify whether
you search for a network or a networkcontainer,
defined as place_to_check in the code below.
