NAME
Net::Intermapper::Vertice - Interface with the HelpSystems Intermapper HTTP API - Vertices
SYNOPSIS
use Net::Intermapper;
my $intermapper = Net::Intermapper->new(hostname=>"10.0.0.1", username=>"admin", password=>"nmsadmin");
# Options:
# hostname - IP or hostname of Intermapper 5.x server
# username - Username of Administrator user
# password - Password of user
# ssl - SSL enabled (1 - default) or disabled (0)
# port - TCP port for querying information. Defaults to 8181
# modifyport - TCP port for modifying information. Default to 443
# cache - Boolean to enable smart caching or force network queries
my %users = $intermapper->users;
my $users_ref = $intermapper->users;
# Retrieve all users from Intermapper, Net::Intermapper::User instances
# Returns hash or hashref, depending on context
my %devices = $intermapper->devices;
my $devices_ref = $intermapper->devices;
# Retrieve all devices from Intermapper, Net::Intermapper::Device instances
# Returns hash or hashref, depending on context
my %maps = $intermapper->maps;
my $maps_ref = $intermapper->maps;
# Retrieve all maps from Intermapper, Net::Intermapper::Map instances
# Returns hash or hashref, depending on context
my %interfaces = $intermapper->interfaces;
my $interfaces_ref = $intermapper->interfaces;
# Retrieve all interfaces from Intermapper, Net::Intermapper::Interface instances
# Returns hash or hashref, depending on context
my %vertices = $intermapper->vertices;
my $vertices_ref = $intermapper->vertices;
# Retrieve all vertices from Intermapper, Net::Intermapper::Vertice instances
# Returns hash or hashref, depending on context
my $user = $intermapper->users->{"admin"};
print $user->header;
print $device->header;
print $map->header;
print $interface->header;
print $vertice->header;
# Generate 'directive' needed for manipulation. Mostly used internally.
# $user->mode("create"); # This changes the header fields
# $user->mode("update"); # This also changes the header fields
# Both are NOT needed when adding or updating a record
print $user->toTAB;
print $device->toXML;
print $map->toCSV;
# Works on ALL classes
# Produce human-readable output of each record.
my $user = Net::Intermapper::User->new(Name=>"testuser", Password=>"Test12345");
my $response = $intermapper->create($user);
# Create new user
# Return value is HTTP::Response object
my $device = Net::Intermapper::Device->new(Name=>"testDevice", MapName=>"TestMap", MapPath=>"/TestMap", Address=>"10.0.0.1");
my $response = $intermapper->create($device);
# Create new device
# Return value is HTTP::Response object
$user->Password("Foobar123");
my $response = $intermapper->update($user);
# Update existing user
# Return value is HTTP::Response object
my $user = $intermapper->users->{"bob"};
my $response = $intermapper->delete($user);
# Delete existing user
# Return value is HTTP::Response object
my $device = $intermapper->devices->{"UniqueDeviceID"};
my $response = $intermapper->delete($device);
# Delete existing device
# Return value is HTTP::Response object
my $users = { "Tom" => $tom_user, "Bob" => $bob_user };
$intermapper->users($users);
# At this point, there is no real reason to do this as update, create and delete work with explicit arguments.
# But it can be done with users, devices, interfaces, maps and vertices
# Pass a hashref to each method. This will NOT affect the smart-caching (only explicit calls to create, update and delete do this - for now).
USAGE
- new
-
Class constructor. Returns object of Net::Intermapper::Vertice on succes. Attributes are:
- MapName (read-only)
-
Name of the map file containing the vertex.
- Id (read-only)
-
A unique, persistent identifier for this vertex instance. The id will be unique across all maps on a single InterMapper server. This value is used for lookups in the
users
method in Net::Intermapper. - Name (read-only)
-
The name of the vertex. The name is the first non-empty line in a device or network's label on a map.
- Color (read-write)
-
Color (valid names: white, black, red, orange, yellow, blue, green, brown)
- FontName (read-write)
-
Font name, eg. Bodoni MT
- FontSize (read-write)
-
Font size in points.
- FontStyle (read-write)
-
Font style (bold, italic, plain)
- Label (read-only)
-
Vertex label.
- LabelPosition (read-write)
-
Label position. Valid values are topleft, top, topright, left, center, right, bottomleft, bottom, bottomright
- LabelTemplate (read-write)
-
Vertex label template.
- LabelVisible (read-write)
-
True if the vertex label is visible (only used when the device is represented by an icon)
- MapId (read-only)
-
The unique Id of the map file containing the vertex.
- Origin (read-write)
-
The origin determines whether the vertex coordinates are relative to the center or one of the sides of the vertex. Valid values: center, top, left, right, botom, topleft, topright, bottomright, bottomleft.
- Shape (read-write)
-
Vertex shape (rect, oval, wire, cloud, text, or icon name).
- VantagePoint (read-write)
-
True if the vertex is a vantage point of the graph
- XCoordinate (read-write)
-
Horizontal map coordinate, the positive direction is to the right.
- YCoordinate (read-write)
-
Vertical map coordinate, the positive direction is to the bottom.
- VertexId (read-only)
-
The Vertex Id of the vertex. Corresponds to the device with a matching VertexID in the devices table.
- header
-
Returns the
directive
aka data header required by the Intermapper API to perform CRUD actions. This is handled through thecreate
,update
anddelete
method and should not really be used.
- toTAB
-
Returns the object data formatted in TAB delimited format. Used in combination with the
header
and theformat
method in Net::Intermapper to perform CRUD actions. This is handled through thecreate
,update
anddelete
method and should not really be used.
- toCSV
-
Returns the object data formatted in Comma Separated delimited format. Used in combination with the
header
and theformat
method in Net::Intermapper to perform CRUD actions. This is handled through thecreate
,update
anddelete
method and should not really be used.
- toXML
-
Returns the object data formatted in XML format. Used in combination with the
header
and theformat
method in Net::Intermapper to perform CRUD actions. This is handled through thecreate
,update
anddelete
method and should not really be used.
- mode
-
Internal method to properly format the data and header for CRUD actions. Typically not used.
- $ERROR
-
NEEDS TO BE ADDED
This variable will contain detailed error information.
REQUIREMENTS
For this library to work, you need an instance with Intermapper (obviously) or a simulator like Net::Intermapper::Mock.
