# sc-napalm

This repo is for building custom [NAPALM](https://napalm.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) "getters" to pull operational data from network devices, as well as
override existing NAPALM getters with custom code if needed. At the moment only one custom getter is implemented: `get_inventory`. This getter
pulls model and serial numbers of device components: fans, psus, and optics.

What's cool about NAPALM is that if you nest your custom drivers under `custom_napalm` as is done in this project, you can install your custom drivers
in the same virtual environment as the main NAPALM package, and they will override NAPALM's core drivers. This allows us to leverage NAPALM in a pretty 
seamless way - by that I mean applications that leverage NAPALM (like Nautobot or Nornir) can be easily altered to use this code instead.


## Using sc-napalm
The package comes with a cli script called `sc-napalm-get` that will run a particular getter against a particular device and output the results
to your terminal.

Right now to use this code you must do the following things:
1. [Install uv](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/getting-started/installation/)
2. Clone the repo onto your local machine, then do a local development install of the repo into a uv virtual environment.
```
git clone https://scinet.supercomputing.org:8443/automation/sc25/sc-napalm.git
cd sc-napalm
uv run pip install -e .
```
3. Copy `sample_env` file into `.env` and fill out `.env` with the credentials you need. Note that you could also specify these credentials
when you run the script, or in your local environment. The script prefers manual input, then `.env` then environment values.

4. Run the script with `uv run sc-napalm-get`.
```
amylieb@m-n76107kqmh sc-napalm % uv run sc-napalm-get -h
usage: sc-napalm-get [-h] [-l {DEBUG,INFO,WARNING,ERROR,CRITICAL} | -L {DEBUG,INFO,WARNING,ERROR,CRITICAL}] [--logfile LOGFILE] [--username USERNAME]
                     [--password PASSWORD]
                     device {iosxr,nxos,junos,sros,srl,eos} {get_config,get_facts,get_lldp_neighbors,get_inventory}

Run a specific sc_napalm "getter" against a device.

positional arguments:
  device                device hostname or IP address
  {iosxr,nxos,junos,sros,srl,eos}
                        The platform of this device
  {get_config,get_facts,get_lldp_neighbors,get_inventory}
                        The getter command to run against this device

options:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -l, --log-level {DEBUG,INFO,WARNING,ERROR,CRITICAL}
                        Set log level for sc_napalm only
  -L, --LOG-LEVEL {DEBUG,INFO,WARNING,ERROR,CRITICAL}
                        set global log level
  --logfile LOGFILE     Save logging to a file (specified by name) instead of to stdout
  --username USERNAME   Specify credentials
  --password PASSWORD   Specify credentials

## Developing sc-napalm
Currently, the getters that are exposed as options in the `get` script are defined in the [base class](https://scinet.supercomputing.org:8443/automation/sc25/sc-napalm/-/blob/main/src/custom_napalm/base.py?ref_type=heads) of the custom drivers.
Note that because all the custom classes inherit the NAPALM getters, we could easily define all the other NAPALM getters there, but I've only included ones I think are obviously useful to us.

My hope is that instead of just printing out results we can write code that saves data in Nautobot, or some other place.
This could be done with Nornir or Nautobot jobs.

## To-dos
* Decide where this code is run and how (periodically? Manually? From Nautobot? if so, how?)
* Decide what output we want to capture (eg "show version"? "show lldp neighbor"?) and where it should go
* Fuctions/tasks that transform output and save it appropriately
* `get_inventory` methods for sros
* Test/mock classes for custom getters
