Description: # Python Cohesive Networks SDK
        [![contact][contact-image]][contact-url]
        
        Cohesive Networks SDK is Python tool providing access to the VNS3 API from applications written in Python. It also includes common pipelines and macro functions
        for building network topologies.
        
        VNS3 API version: [4.8](https://github.com/cohesive/cohesive-api-specs/blob/master/vns3/vns3-v48-api/spec.yaml)
        
        ## Installation
        
        You can PIP install with
        
        ```sh
        pip install cohesivenet
        ```
        (you may need to run `pip` with root permission: `sudo pip install cohesivenet`)
        
        or Install via [Setuptools](http://pypi.python.org/pypi/setuptools).
        
        ```sh
        python setup.py install --user
        ```
        (or `sudo python setup.py install` to install the package for all users)
        
        ## Usage
        
        ### Configuring a Client
        
        ```python
        import cohesivenet
        from pprint import pprint
        
        configuration = cohesivenet.Configuration(
            host='https://[vns3-host]:8000',
            username='api',         
            password='YOUR_PASSWORD',
            verify_ssl=False) # Local cert is used by default. Can add your own cert.
        # Configure HTTP basic authorization: basicAuth
        configuration.username = 'api'
        configuration.password = 'YOUR_PASSWORD'
        configuration.host = "https://[vns3-host]:8000"
        # Create an instance of the API class
        vns3_controller = cohesivenet.VNS3Client(configuration)
        
        try:
            api_response = vns3_controller.config.get_config()
            pprint(api_response)
        except cohesivenet.ApiException as e:
            print("Exception fetching VNS3 Configuration get_config(): %s\n" % e)
        ```
        
        ### Methods
        All endpoints are documented [here](https://github.com/cohesive/python-cohesivenet-sdk/blob/master/endpoints.md). Each sub-api is available from the VNS3Client instance as follows:
        
        ```python
        
        vns3_client.config                # ConfigurationApi provides VNS3 config methods
        vns3_client.bgp                   # BGPApi for Border Gateway Protocol methods
        vns3_client.firewall              # FirewallApi for configuring VNS3 policies
        vns3_client.high_availability     # HighAvailabilityApi for configuration HA for VNS3
        vns3_client.ipsec                 # IPsecApi for IPsec tunnel methods
        vns3_client.interfaces            # InterfacesApi for viewing VNS3 interfaces
        vns3_client.monitoring            # MonitoringAlertingApi
        vns3_client.network_edge_plugins  # NetworkEdgePluginsApi
        vns3_client.overlay_network       # OverlayNetworkApi for managing the overlay network
        vns3_client.peering               # PeeringApi for peering VNS3 controllers
        vns3_client.routing               # RoutingApi for configuring routing
        vns3_client.snapshots             # SnapshotsApi for managing backups
        vns3_client.sys_admin             # SystemAdministrationApi for access and sys admin tasks
        vns3_client.licensing             # LicensingApi for controller licensing 
        ```
        
        ### Common API patterns: `cohesivenet.macros`
        Many API calls are called together to configure a topology or update a network configuration. More macros will be added to 
        increasingly simplify VNS3 topology creation and configuration. More documentation to come.
        
        ```python
        macros.admin             # Admin operations typically applied to multiple controllers at once
        macros.config            # configuring multiple clients
        macros.connect           # connecting to clients
        macros.ipsec             # ipsec operations like creating a tunnel and then a route
        macros.overlay_network   # overlay network functions like calculating network segments of the overlay
        macros.peering           # topology peering operations like creating a peering mesh between controllers
        macros.routing           # Operations for updating routing in your topology
        macros.state             # Methods for fetching the state of your controller(s)
        ```
        
        ### Logging
        The SDK can be configured to emit logs for better visibility into what it's doing. The SDK supports INFO, DEBUG, and ERROR logging.
        
        There are two ways to enable it:
        
        1. Set the environment variable `COHESIVE_LOG_LEVEL` to the value `debug`, `info` or `error`
        
           ```sh
           $ export COHESIVE_LOG_LEVEL=debug
           ```
        
        2. Enable it through Python's logging module:
        
           ```python
           import logging
           logging.basicConfig()
           logging.getLogger('cohesivenet').setLevel(logging.DEBUG)
           ```
