Net::Intermapper::Device - Interface with the HelpSystems Intermapper HTTP API - Devices

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 and 6.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"};

# Each class will generate specific header. These are typically only for internal use but are compliant to the import format Intermapper uses.
print $user->header; 
print $device->header;
print $map->header;
print $interface->header;
print $vertice->header;

print $user->toTAB;
print $device->toXML; # This one is broken still!
print $map->toCSV;
# Works on ALL subclasses
# Produce human-readable output of each record in the formats Intermapper supports

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).

DESCRIPTION

Net::Intermapper::Device is a perl wrapper around the HelpSystems Intermapper API provided through HTTP/HTTPS for access to device information.

All calls are handled through an instance of the Net::Intermapper class.

use Net::Intermapper;
my $intermapper = Net::Intermapper->new(hostname => '10.0.0.1', username => 'admin', password => 'nmsadmin');

USAGE

MapPath (read-only): Full path of the map containing the device, including the name of the map.
Address (read-write): The IP or AppleTalk address of the device that is probed by InterMapper. The IP address is represented in dotted-decimal notation, e.g. 'a.b.c.d'. The AppleTalk address is represented in slash notation, e.g. 'a/b'.
Id (read-only): A unique, persistent identifier for this device 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.

header: Returns the directive aka data header required by the Intermapper API to perform CRUD actions. This is handled through the create, update and delete method and should not really be used.

toTAB: Returns the object data formatted in TAB delimited format. Used in combination with the header and the format method in Net::Intermapper to perform CRUD actions. This is handled through the create, update and delete 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 the format method in Net::Intermapper to perform CRUD actions. This is handled through the create, update and delete method and should not really be used.

toXML: Returns the object data formatted in XML format. Used in combination with the header and the format method in Net::Intermapper to perform CRUD actions. This is handled through the create, update and delete method and should not really be used.

mode: Internal method to properly format the data and header for CRUD actions. Typically not used.
