Build Status PyPi version

GLPI SDK written in Python.

Description

This SDK is written in Python to help developers integrate their apps, APIS and scripts in GLPI infrastructure. This SDK abstract the GLPI Rest API.

To usage it, you should have username, password and API-Token from your GLPI server.

To create an API token: Setup > General > API :

  • Enable Rest API : Yes

See also:

Install

Just install from:

  • PyPi:

    pip install glpi
  • repository (development):

    pip install -e git+https://github.com/truly-systems/glpi-sdk-python.git@master#egg=glpi
  • requirements.txt (development)

    pip install -r requirements-dev.txt

Usage

You should enable the GLPI API and generate an App Token.

Please, export these environments variables with yours config:

export username = "GLPI_USER"
export password = "GLPI_USER"
export url = 'http://glpi.example.com/apirest.php'
export glpi_app_token = "GLPI_API_TOKEN"

Then import it in your script and create a glpi API connection:

import os
from glpi import GLPI

url = os.getenv("GLPI_API_URL") or None
user = os.getenv("GLPI_USERNAME") or None
password = os.getenv("GLPI_PASSWORD") or None
token = os.getenv("GLPI_APP_TOKEN") or None

glpi = GLPI(url, token, (user, password))
glpi.kill() #Destroy a session identified by a session token

To usage the SDK, you just set the DBTM item that you want and get information from GLPI.

The Item value must be valid, otherwise you will get the following error.

[
    "ERROR_RESOURCE_NOT_FOUND_NOR_COMMONDBTM",
    "resource not found or not an instance of CommonDBTM; view documentation in your browser at http://<GLPI_URL>/apirest.php/#ERROR_RESOURCE_NOT_FOUND_NOR_COMMONDBTM"
]

ticket_payload = {
  'name': 'New ticket from SDK',
  'content': '>>>> Content of ticket created by SDK API <<<'
}

ticket_dict = glpi.create(item_name='ticket', item_data=ticket_payload)
if isinstance(ticket_dict, dict):
  print "The create ticket request was sent. See results: "

print json.dumps(ticket_dict,
                  indent=4,

if isinstance(ticket_dict, dict):
  print "The update ticket request was sent. See results: "

print json.dumps(ticket_dict,
                  indent=4,
                  separators=(',', ': '),
                  sort_keys=True)

ticket_dict = glpi.delete(item_name='ticket', item_id=1, force_purge=true) 
#force_purge (default false): boolean, if the itemtype have a dustbin, you can force purge (delete finally)
if isinstance(ticket_dict, dict):
  print "The delete ticket request was sent. See results: "

print json.dumps(ticket_dict,
                  indent=4,
                  separators=(',', ': '),
                  sort_keys=True)

List searchOptions

print "Getting a list of search options for the item type provided: "
print json.dumps(glpi.search_options('ticket'),
                  indent=4,
                  separators=(',', ': '),
                  sort_keys=True)

Search with GLPI search engine

GLPI has a powerfull search engine builtin, which is exposed via the API. See the documentation at your GLPI instance via apirest.php#search-items.

The usage sample using curl is:

query 'name' and return the ID

curl -X GET 'http://path/to/apirest.php/search/Knowbaseitem?
    criteria\[0\]\[field\]\=6
    &criteria\[0\]\[searchtype\]=contains
    &criteria\[0\]\[value\]=sites-multimidia
    &criteria\[0\]\[link\]\=AND
    &criteria\[1\]\[field\]\=2
    &criteria\[1\]\[searchtype\]\=contains
    &criteria\[1\]\[value\]\=
    &criteria\[1\]\[link\]\=AND'

You can use it as follows:

  print "Search 'Computers': "
  criteria = { "criteria": [
                {
                  # "link": "AND", # this is optional for the first criterion
                  "searchtype": None, # default to "contains"
                  "field": "name",
                  "value": "TEST"
                },
                {
                  "link": "AND",
                  #"searchtype": "bb", # default to "contains"
                  "field": "otherserial",
                  "value": "xxx"
                }
             ]}
  print json.dumps(glpi.search_engine('computer', criteria),
                    indent=4,
                    separators=(',', ': '),
                    sort_keys=True)

Usage:

  • field parameter:
    • You can use field names instead of their integer IDs (see output from /listSearchOptions)
      • These names are taken from their uid, but the item type is stripped.
      • If you need a special field from a plugin, just find out the corresponding uid and strip the item type.
      • Example: {"1": {"uid": "Computer.name"}} gets {"name": 1} for type Computer
    • If you provide an integer or a number as string, it won't be touched before use.
    • If you provide an unmappable field name, an exception is raised.
  • searchtype is entirely optional, accepts garbage and None.
  • link is only enforced on criterions that are not the first.
  • value is entirely optional like searchtype.

Limitations:

  • You cannot use other search parameters other than criteria right now.
  • You cannot use the metacriteria parameter, which makes linked searches unavailable.
