Trying to make a new model for Ubiquiti UFiber devices

[baldoarturo]

Those hosts execute Ubiquiti EdgeOS inside, but they keep part of the config on separate files in the filesystem. Most of the config is done (and pulled) via HTTP. There is an HTTP endpoint which downloads a config backup, in a tar.gz file

So, I know I can do something like this, manually:

To login: curl -s --output /dev/null --location --insecure --data 'username=myusername&password=mypassword' --cookie-jar /tmp/cookies https://hostname I saved cookies in /tmp/cookies

To request the device to generate a config backup curl --location --insecure --cookie /tmp/cookies https://hostname/api/edge/config/save.json

To actually pull that config backup curl -s --location --insecure --cookie /tmp/cookies --output /tmp/hostname.tar.gz https://#{@node.ip}/files/config/

This works manually and I have even automated this in Python... but I don't know anything about Ruby. I tried this:

class UFiber < Oxidized::Model

    prompt /@.*?:~\$\s/

    cmd :exec do 
        "curl -s --location --insecure --cookie /tmp/cookies https://#{@node.ip}/files/config/ | base64"
    end
    cfg :exec do
        exec "curl -s --output /dev/null --location --insecure --data 'username=#{@node.auth[:username]}&password=#{@node.auth[:password]}' --cookie-jar /tmp/cookies https://#{@node.ip}; curl --location --insecure --cookie /tmp/cookies https://#{@node.ip}/api/edge/config/save.json"
    end

end

So.. the cfg parth calls curl locally, but I don't know how to instruct oxidized to pull the backup file I tried encoding it in base64 and maybe decoding later as this is a binary file... without luck ye Any insight? thanks!

Allright, I have done this to get it on base64

class UFiber < Oxidized::Model

    prompt /.+@.+:~\$/

    cmd 'cat /tmp/config'

    cmd :all do |cfg|
        cfg.lines.to_a[1..-2].join
    end

    cfg :ssh do 
        post_login "curl -s --output /dev/null --location --insecure --data 'username=#{@node.auth[:username]}&password=#{@node.auth[:password]}' --cookie-jar /tmp/cookies https://localhost"
        post_login "curl -s --output /dev/null --location --insecure --cookie /tmp/cookies https://localhost/api/edge/config/save.json"
        post_login "curl -s --location --insecure --cookie /tmp/cookies https://localhost/files/config/ | base64 > /tmp/config"
        pre_logout 'exit'
    end 

end

Not sure if we can decode the output to the original binary tar.gz after the cmd block gets the output @ytti if you have any ideas, I would love to send a pull request for this

I sent #2440 for this
