create(**kwargs)

Implement this by overriding it in a subclass of Resource

Raises:InvalidResource

delete(**kwargs)

Implement this by overriding it in a subclass of Resource

Raises:InvalidResource

get_collection(**kwargs)

Get an iterator of Python Resource objects that represent URIs.

The returned objects are Pythonic Resource`s that map to the most recently `refreshed state of uris-resources published by the device. In order to instantiate the correct types, the concrete subclass must populate its registry with acceptable types, based on the kind field returned by the REST server.

Note

This method implies a single REST transaction with the Collection subclass URI.

Raises:UnregisteredKind Returns:list of reference dicts and Python Resource objects

raw

Display the attributes that the current object has and their values.

Returns:A dictionary of attributes and their values

refresh(**kwargs)

Use this to make the device resource be represented by self.

This method makes an HTTP GET query against the device service. This method is run for its side-effects on self. If successful the instance attribute __dict__ is replaced with the dict representing the device state. To figure out what that state is, run a subsequest query of the object like this: As with all CURDLE methods use a “requests_params” dict to pass parameters to requests.session.HTTPMETHOD. See test_requests_params.py for an example. >>> resource_obj.refresh() >>> print(resource_obj.raw)

update(**kwargs)

Implement this by overriding it in a subclass of Resource

class f5.bigip.ltm.monitor.Http(https)

Bases: f5.bigip.ltm.monitor.UpdateMonitorMixin, f5.bigip.resource.Resource

BigIP Http monitor resource.

create(**kwargs)

Create the resource on the BigIP.

Uses HTTP POST to the collection URI to create a resource associated with a new unique URI on the device.

Parameters:kwargs – All the key-values needed to create the resource

NOTE: If kwargs has a ‘requests_params’ key the corresponding dict will be passed to the underlying requests.session.post method where it will be handled according to that API. THIS IS HOW TO PASS QUERY-ARGS! :returns: self - A python object that represents the object’s

configuration and state on the BigIP.

delete(**kwargs)

Delete the resource on the BigIP.

Uses HTTP DELETE to delete the resource on the BigIP.

After this method is called, and status_code 200 response is received instance.__dict__ is replace with {'deleted': True}

Parameters:kwargs – The only current use is to pass kwargs to the requests

API. If kwargs has a ‘requests_params’ key the corresponding dict will be passed to the underlying requests.session.delete method where it will be handled according to that API. THIS IS HOW TO PASS QUERY-ARGS!

exists(**kwargs)

Check for the existence of the named object on the BigIP

Sends an HTTP GET to the URI of the named object and if it fails with a :exc:~requests.HTTPError` exception it checks the exception for status code of 404 and returns False in that case.

If the GET is successful it returns True.

For any other errors are raised as-is.

Parameters:kwargs – Keyword arguments required to get objects

NOTE: If kwargs has a ‘requests_params’ key the corresponding dict will be passed to the underlying requests.session.get method where it will be handled according to that API. THIS IS HOW TO PASS QUERY-ARGS! :returns: bool – The objects exists on BigIP or not. :raises: requests.HTTPError, Any HTTP error that was not status

code 404.

load(**kwargs)

The returned objects are Pythonic Resource`s that map to the most recently `refreshed state of uris-resources published by the device. In order to instantiate the correct types, the concrete subclass must populate its registry with acceptable types, based on the kind field returned by the REST server.

Note

This method implies a single REST transaction with the Collection subclass URI.

Raises:UnregisteredKind Returns:list of reference dicts and Python Resource objects

raw

Display the attributes that the current object has and their values.

Returns:A dictionary of attributes and their values

refresh(**kwargs)

Use this to make the device resource be represented by self.

This method makes an HTTP GET query against the device service. This method is run for its side-effects on self. If successful the instance attribute __dict__ is replaced with the dict representing the device state. To figure out what that state is, run a subsequest query of the object like this: As with all CURDLE methods use a “requests_params” dict to pass parameters to requests.session.HTTPMETHOD. See test_requests_params.py for an example. >>> resource_obj.refresh() >>> print(resource_obj.raw)

update(**kwargs)

Parameters:kwargs – All the key-values needed to create the resource

NOTE: If kwargs has a ‘requests_params’ key the corresponding dict will be passed to the underlying requests.session.post method where it will be handled according to that API. THIS IS HOW TO PASS QUERY-ARGS! :returns: self - A python object that represents the object’s

configuration and state on the BigIP.

delete(**kwargs)

Delete the resource on the BigIP.

Uses HTTP DELETE to delete the resource on the BigIP.

After this method is called, and status_code 200 response is received instance.__dict__ is replace with {'deleted': True}

Parameters:kwargs – The only current use is to pass kwargs to the requests

API. If kwargs has a ‘requests_params’ key the corresponding dict will be passed to the underlying requests.session.delete method where it will be handled according to that API. THIS IS HOW TO PASS QUERY-ARGS!

exists(**kwargs)

Delete the resource on the BigIP.

Uses HTTP DELETE to delete the resource on the BigIP.

After this method is called, and status_code 200 response is received instance.__dict__ is replace with {'deleted': True}

Parameters:kwargs – The only current use is to pass kwargs to the requests

API. If kwargs has a ‘requests_params’ key the corresponding dict will be passed to the underlying requests.session.delete method where it will be handled according to that API. THIS IS HOW TO PASS QUERY-ARGS!

exists(**kwargs)

Check for the existence of the named object on the BigIP

Sends an HTTP GET to the URI of the named object and if it fails with a :exc:~requests.HTTPError` exception it checks the exception for status code of 404 and returns False in that case.

If the GET is successful it returns True.

For any other errors are raised as-is.

Parameters:kwargs – Keyword arguments required to get objects

NOTE: If kwargs has a ‘requests_params’ key the corresponding dict will be passed to the underlying requests.session.get method where it will be handled according to that API.

Sends an HTTP GET to the URI of the named object and if it fails with a :exc:~requests.HTTPError` exception it checks the exception for status code of 404 and returns False in that case.

If the GET is successful it returns True.

For any other errors are raised as-is.

Parameters:kwargs – Keyword arguments required to get objects

NOTE: If kwargs has a ‘requests_params’ key the corresponding dict will be passed to the underlying requests.session.get method where it will be handled according to that API. THIS IS HOW TO PASS QUERY-ARGS! :returns: bool – The objects exists on BigIP or not. :raises: requests.HTTPError, Any HTTP error that was not status

code 404.

load(**kwargs)

Load an already configured service into this instance.

This method uses HTTP GET to obtain a resource from the BigIP.

Parameters:kwargs – typically contains “name” and “partition”

NOTE: If kwargs has a ‘requests_params’ key the corresponding dict will be passed to the underlying requests.session.get method where it will be handled according to that API. THIS IS HOW TO PASS QUERY-ARGS! :returns: a Resource Instance (with a populated _meta_data[‘uri’])

raw

Returns:A dictionary of attributes and their values

refresh(**kwargs)

Use this to make the device resource be represented by self.

This method makes an HTTP GET query against the device service. This method is run for its side-effects on self. If successful the instance attribute __dict__ is replaced with the dict representing the device state. To figure out what that state is, run a subsequest query of the object like this: As with all CURDLE methods use a “requests_params” dict to pass parameters to requests.session.HTTPMETHOD.

The returned objects are Pythonic Resource`s that map to the most recently `refreshed state of uris-resources published by the device. In order to instantiate the correct types, the concrete subclass must populate its registry with acceptable types, based on the kind field returned by the REST server.

Note

This method implies a single REST transaction with the Collection subclass URI.

Raises:UnregisteredKind Returns:list of reference dicts and Python Resource objects

raw

Display the attributes that the current object has and their values.

Returns:A dictionary of attributes and their values

refresh(**kwargs)

Use this to make the device resource be represented by self.

This method makes an HTTP GET query against the device service. This method is run for its side-effects on self. If successful the instance attribute __dict__ is replaced with the dict representing the device state. To figure out what that state is, run a subsequest query of the object like this: As with all CURDLE methods use a “requests_params” dict to pass parameters to requests.session.HTTPMETHOD. See test_requests_params.py for an example. >>> resource_obj.refresh() >>> print(resource_obj.raw)

class f5.bigip.ltm.snat.Snats(ltm)

Bases: f5.bigip.resource.Collection

BigIP LTM Snat collection

create(**kwargs)

Implement this by overriding it in a subclass of Resource

Raises:InvalidResource

delete(**kwargs)

Implement this by overriding it in a subclass of Resource

Raises:InvalidResource

get_collection(**kwargs)

Get an iterator of Python Resource objects that represent URIs.

The returned objects are Pythonic Resource`s that map to the most recently `refreshed state of uris-resources published by the device. In order to instantiate the correct types, the concrete subclass must populate its registry with acceptable types, based on the kind field returned by the REST server.

Note

This method implies a single REST transaction with the Collection subclass URI.

Raises:UnregisteredKind Returns:list of reference dicts and Python Resource objects

raw

Display the attributes that the current object has and their values.

Returns:A dictionary of attributes and their values

refresh(**kwargs)

Use this to make the device resource be represented by self.

This method makes an HTTP GET query against the device service. This method is run for its side-effects on self. If successful the instance attribute __dict__ is replaced with the dict representing the device state. To figure out what that state is, run a subsequest query of the object like this: As with all CURDLE methods use a “requests_params” dict to pass parameters to requests.session.HTTPMETHOD. See test_requests_params.py for an example. >>> resource_obj.refresh() >>> print(resource_obj.raw)

update(**kwargs)

Implement this by overriding it in a subclass of Resource

Raises:InvalidResource

class f5.bigip.ltm.snat.Snat(snat_s)

Bases: f5.bigip.resource.Resource

BigIP LTM Snat resource

create(**kwargs)

Call this to create a new snat on the BigIP.

Uses HTTP POST to ‘containing’ URI to create a service associated with a new URI on the device.

Note this is the one of two fundamental Resource operations that returns a different uri (in the returned object) than the uri the operation was called on. The returned uri can be accessed as Object.selfLink, the actual uri used by REST operations on the object is Object._meta_data[‘uri’]. The _meta_data[‘uri’] is the same as Object.selfLink with the substring ‘localhost’ replaced with the value of Object._meta_data[‘bigip’]._meta_data[‘hostname’], and without query args, or hash fragments.

The following is done prior to the POST * Ensures that one of automap, snatpool, translastion

parameter is passed in.

Parameters:kwargs – All the key-values needed to create the resource Returns:An instance of the Python object that represents the device’s

uri-published resource. The uri of the resource is part of the object’s _meta_data.

delete(**kwargs)

Delete the resource on the BigIP.

Uses HTTP DELETE to delete the resource on the BigIP.

After this method is called, and status_code 200 response is received instance.__dict__ is replace with {'deleted': True}

Parameters:kwargs – The only current use is to pass kwargs to the requests

API. If kwargs has a ‘requests_params’ key the corresponding dict will be passed to the underlying requests.session.delete method where it will be handled according to that API. THIS IS HOW TO PASS QUERY-ARGS!

exists(**kwargs)

Check for the existence of the named object on the BigIP

Sends an HTTP GET to the URI of the named object and if it fails with a :exc:~requests.HTTPError` exception it checks the exception for status code of 404 and returns False in that case.

If the GET is successful it returns True.

For any other errors are raised as-is.

Parameters:kwargs – Keyword arguments required to get objects

NOTE: If kwargs has a ‘requests_params’ key the corresponding dict will be passed to the underlying requests.session.get method where it will be handled according to that API. THIS IS HOW TO PASS QUERY-ARGS! :returns: bool – The objects exists on BigIP or not. :raises: requests.HTTPError, Any HTTP error that was not status

code 404.

load(**kwargs)

Load an already configured service into this instance.

This method uses HTTP GET to obtain a resource from the BigIP.

Parameters:kwargs – typically contains “name” and “partition”

NOTE: If kwargs has a ‘requests_params’ key the corresponding dict will be passed to the underlying requests.session.get method where it will be handled according to that API. THIS IS HOW TO PASS QUERY-ARGS! :returns: a Resource Instance (with a populated _meta_data[‘uri’])

raw

Display the attributes that the current object has and their values.

Returns:A dictionary of attributes and their values

refresh(**kwargs)

Use this to make the device resource be represented by self.

This method makes an HTTP GET query against the device service. This method is run for its side-effects on self. If successful the instance attribute __dict__ is replaced with the dict representing the device state. To figure out what that state is, run a subsequest query of the object like this: As with all CURDLE methods use a “requests_params” dict to pass parameters to requests.session.HTTPMETHOD. See test_requests_params.py for an example. >>> resource_obj.refresh() >>> print(resource_obj.raw)

update(**kwargs)

Update the configuration of the resource on the BigIP.

This method uses HTTP PUT alter the resource state on the BigIP.

The attributes of the instance will be packaged as a dictionary. That dictionary will be updated with kwargs. It is then submitted as JSON to the device.

Various edge cases are handled: * read-only attributes that are unchangeable are removed

Parameters:kwargs – keys and associated values to alter on the device

NOTE: If kwargs has a ‘requests_params’ key the corresponding dict will be passed to the underlying requests.session.put method where it will be handled according to that API. THIS IS HOW TO PASS QUERY-ARGS!
