How to use AnyCLI - Githubissues

louisfrancoisSO commented 5 years ago

Hello again,

I'm starting to work more with your modules and I have questions on what's possible or not. In Aruba v16.04, there are new functionnalities AnyCLI and Batch_CLI. Those REST API functions are quite useful and I was wondering if it was possible to use them in your module.

FYI, the URI is http(s)://IP/rest/v3/cli with a JSON

{ "cmd" : "" }

For example, I would like do show version on my switchs. So something like

- host: switch1
tasks: 
  - name: show version
    aruba_cli: 
      cmd: show version

So first, is it possible to use it? I have not seen it in the different files on the Git If not, how to get info like this?

Thank you,

Louis

Hi!

There are a couple options to using AnyCli or even SSH CLI. Please see this post on our Airheads Developer Community! https://community.arubanetworks.com/t5/Developer-Community/How-to-install-use-CLI-modules-and-tasks-for-Switch-and-CX-in/td-p/534333

For 'How-To' questions, please use this forum as a resource!

Thanks!

Hello,

The post you sent use another github project. Yours is way simpler so I would prefer to keep everything in here. Moreover the inventories are different in both projects so it is not possible to use both at the same time for the same targets. That's why I was asking.

Yes but my goal is to use Ansible, that will use the API (or via SSH).

aruba / aruba-ansible-modules
