go-pulse-vtm - Go Bindings for the Pulse Secure Virtual Traffic Manager (vTM)

Overview

This is the GoLang API wrapper for Pulse Secure Virtual Traffic Manager (vTM). Starting from version 0.4.0 the API has been redesigned.

This repository used to be called go-brocade-vtm. Since version 0.4.50, this repository has been renamed to go-pulse-vtm.

API usage

Importing the API

    import("github.com/sky-uk/go-pulse-vtm/api")

Connecting to a Pulse vTM server

The Connect API returns a client object or an error in case of issues. The APIVersion parameter can be used to specify a server API version to use; in case it is not provided, the list of available API versions is retrieved from the server and the highest available is used. Custom headers can be passed at connection time, if not passed the content type is anyhow set to "application/json"

    headers := make(map[string]string)
    // set your custom headers...
	params := Params{
		APIVersion: "3.8",
		Server:    server,
		Username:  username,
		Password:  password,
		IgnoreSSL: true,
		Debug:     true,
        Headers:   headers,
	}

	client, err := Connect(params)

Dealing with configuration resources

Setting (creating/updating) a resource

The Set API is provided to both create and update a configuration resource. The last input paramenter is a pointer to a map (or struct) where the new created/updated resource is provided back.

    err := client.Set(<resource type>,<resource name>, <resource profile>, <pointer to map/struct>)

    // example
	profile := make(map[string]interface{})
    name := "new_virtual_server_8347"
    // fill the profile...
    //...

	updatedRes := make(map[string]interface{})
	err = client.Set("virtual_servers", name, profile, &updatedRes)

Getting a resource

Retrieve a resource by its name

    err := client.GetByName(<resource type>, <resource name>, <pointer to map/struct>)

Retrieve a resource by its url

    err := client.GetByURL(<resource type>, <resource name>, <pointer to map/struct>)

Deleting a resource

    err := client.Delete(<resource type>, <resource name>)

Getting all resource types

The GetAllResourceTypes returns the list of all resource types

    types, err := client.GetAllResourceTypes()

Getting all resources of a type

The GetAllResources API returns a list of maps containing names/urls of all resources of the provided type.

    objs, err := client.GetAllResources(<resource type>)

Dealing with information resources

The GetInformation API returns the information section for the passed server name

    info, err := client.GetInformation(<server name>)

Dealing with statistics

The GetStatistics API returns all the statistics resources for a server node name

    stats, err := client.GetStatistics(<server name>)

Getting the server state

The GetState API returns the current state for the passed server node name

    state, err := client.GetState(<server name>)
