Manageengine-netflow-api-wrapper

Wrapper for undocumented manageengine netflow API. Only works for v12.

WORK IN PROGRESS, NOT FINISHED

TODO:

• Implement modify functions to translate between JSON returned from get methods to data structure required for modify methods. (maybe feature as a class)
• Update all docstrings
• Convert all methods to use url encoding instead of string replacement

Installation

This library can be installed using PIP:

pip install manageengineapi

Alternatively you can install it from cloned respository:

python setup.py install

Usage

Every object within in the API has 4 methods: get, add, modify, and delete. Every method takes object parameters as a dictionary. For example...

Add IP Group to track Google DNS traffic:

import manageengineapi

session = manageengineapi.NFApi(
    'your_server_here',
    'your_api_key', #API key found in settings
    'apiuser', #User with administrative privs
    'apipassword', #password
)

session.login()

#Add IP Group
ip_group_params = {
    'GroupName': 'Google DNS',
    'Desc': 'API test',
    'speed': 50000,
    'DevList': '-1',
    'status': 'include,include',
    'IPData': '8.8.8.8-8.8.4.4',
    'IPType': 'ipaddress,ipaddress',
}

result = session.add_ip_group(ip_group_params)

JSON returned to us shows group was successfully created.

>>> result
{'message': 'IPGroup added successfully', 'GName': 'Google DNS'}
