gornir
Gornir is a pluggable framework with inventory management to help operate collections of devices. It's similar to nornir but in golang.
The goal is to be able to operate on many devices with little effort. For instance:
package main
import (
"context"
"os"
"github.com/nornir-automation/gornir/pkg/gornir"
"github.com/nornir-automation/gornir/pkg/plugins/connection"
"github.com/nornir-automation/gornir/pkg/plugins/inventory"
"github.com/nornir-automation/gornir/pkg/plugins/logger"
"github.com/nornir-automation/gornir/pkg/plugins/output"
"github.com/nornir-automation/gornir/pkg/plugins/runner"
"github.com/nornir-automation/gornir/pkg/plugins/task"
)
func main() {
log := logger.NewLogrus(false)
file := "/go/src/github.com/nornir-automation/gornir/examples/hosts.yaml"
plugin := inventory.FromYAML{HostsFile: file}
inv, err := plugin.Create()
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
gr := gornir.New().WithInventory(inv).WithLogger(log).WithRunner(runner.Parallel())
// Open an SSH connection towards the devices
results, err := gr.RunSync(
context.Background(),
&connection.SSHOpen{},
)
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
// defer closing the SSH connection we just opened
defer func() {
results, err = gr.RunSync(
context.Background(),
&connection.SSHClose{},
)
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
}()
// Following call is going to execute the task over all the hosts using the runner.Parallel runner.
// Said runner is going to handle the parallelization for us. Gornir.RunS is also going to block
// until the runner has completed executing the task over all the hosts
results, err = gr.RunSync(
context.Background(),
&task.RemoteCommand{Command: "ip addr | grep \\/24 | awk '{ print $2 }'"},
)
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
// next call is going to print the result on screen
output.RenderResults(os.Stdout, results, "What is my ip?", true)
}
would render:
# What is my ip?
@ dev5.no_group
- err: failed to retrieve connection: couldn't find connection
@ dev1.group_1
- stdout: 10.21.33.101/24
- stderr:
@ dev6.no_group
- stdout: 10.21.33.106/24
- stderr:
@ dev4.group_2
- stdout: 10.21.33.104/24
- stderr:
@ dev3.group_2
- stdout: 10.21.33.103/24
- stderr:
@ dev2.group_1
- stdout: 10.21.33.102/24
- stderr:
Examples
You can see more examples in the examples folder and run them with Docker-Compose as follows:
- Create a development enviroment
make start-dev-env
- Run any of the examples in the examples folder with
make example
. Specify the name of the example withEXAMPLE
; for instance2_simple_with_filter
.
make example EXAMPLE=2_simple_with_filter
- After you are done, make sure you stop the development enviroment
make stop-dev-env
The project is still work in progress and feedback/help is welcomed.
