# Inventory Provider


## Overview

This module implements a Flask-based webservice which
provides some access to GÉANT network router inventory
information.

The webservice is communicates with clients over HTTP.
Responses to valid requests are returned as JSON messages.
The server will therefore return an error unless
`application/json` is in the `Accept` request header field.

HTTP communication and JSON grammar details are
beyond the scope of this document.
Please refer to [RFC 2616](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2616)
and www.json.org for more details.


## Configuration

Several configuration files must be provided when launching
the web service.

The runtime-accessible filename of the first configuration file
must be stored in the environment variable
`SETTINGS_FILENAME`.

The configuration file is python and defines a single variable.
The following is an example:

```python
INVENTORY_PROVIDER_CONFIG_FILENAME = "/somepath/config.json"
ENABLE_TESTING_ROUTES = True
```

- `INVENTORY_PROVIDER_CONFIG_FILENAME`: [REQUIRED] Run-time accessible filename
of a json file containing the server configuration parameters.  This file
must be formatted according to the following json schema:

    ```json
    {
        "$schema": "http://json-schema.org/draft-07/schema#",

        "definitions": {

- `ENABLE_TESTING_ROUTES`: [OPTIONAL (default value: False)]
Flat (can be any value that evaluates to True) to enable
routes to special utilities used for testing.
*This must never be enabled in a production environment.*


## Running this module

This module has been tested in the following execution environments:

- As an embedded Flask application.
For example, the application could be launched as follows:

```bash
$ export FLASK_APP=app.py
$ export SETTINGS_FILENAME=settings.cfg
$ flask run
```

- As an Apache/`mod_wsgi` service.
  - Details of Apache and `mod_wsgi`
    configuration are beyond the scope of this document.

- As a `gunicorn` wsgi service.
  - Details of `gunicorn` configuration are
    beyond the scope of this document.

        },

        "type": "array",
        "items": {"$ref": "#/definitions/equipment-info"}
    }
    ```

* /jobs/update

  This resource updates the inventory network data for juniper devices.
  The function completes asynchronously and a list of outstanding
  task id's is returned so the caller can
  use `/jobs/check-task-status` to determine when all jobs
  are finished.  The response will be formatted as follows:

  ```json
  {
    "$schema": "http://json-schema.org/draft-07/schema#",
    "type": "array",
    "items": {"type": "string"}
  }
  ```

* /jobs/reload-router-config/*`equipment-name`*

  This resource updates the inventory network data for
  the identified juniper device.  This function completes
  asynchronously and returns the same value as
  `/jobs/update`, except the return contains exactly
  one task id.

* /jobs/check-task-status/*`task-id`*

  This resource returns the current status of
   an asynchronous task started by `/jobs/update`
   or `jobs/reload-router-config`.  The return value
   will be formatted as follows:

  ```json
  {
    "$schema": "http://json-schema.org/draft-07/schema#",
    "type": "object",
    "properties": {
        "id": {"type": "string"},
        "status": {"type": "string"},
        "exception": {"type": "boolean"},
        "ready": {"type": "boolean"},
        "success": {"type": "boolean"},
        "result": {"type": "object"}
    },
    "required": ["id", "status", "exception", "ready", "success"],
    "additionalProperties": False
  }
  ```

* /classifier/juniper-link-info/*`source-equipment`*/*`source-interface`*

  The source-equipment is the equipment that causes the trap, not the NMS that
  sends it.
  
  The response will be an object containing the
  metadata, formatted according to the following schema:
  
    ```json
    {
        "$schema": "http://json-schema.org/draft-07/schema#",

* /classifier/peer-info/*`address`*

  The `address` parameter should be the ip address of
  a remote peer.  If this address is found in the system
  then information about the interface is returned, otherwise
  404 is returned (or 422 if the address can't be parsed)

  The response will be formatted according to the following syntax:

### Testing utilities

The following routes are only available if the server
was started with the `ENABLE_TESTING_ROUTES` flag.  These routes
are present only for testing, or for deprectated routes that
are intended to be deleted.


* `/testing/flushdb`

  This method erases all data in the backend redis
  database.

*  /testing/infinera-dna-addresses, /testing/coriant-tnmp-addresses, /testing/juniper-server-addresses`

  All of these resources return lists of source addresses
  of known senders of snmp traps.  Responses will be
  formatted as follows:

    ```json
    {
        "$schema": "http://json-schema.org/draft-07/schema#",
        "type": "array",
        "items": {"type": "string"}
    }
    ```


* /data/snmp/*`hostname`*

  The response will be a list of information about
   the interfaces discovered through snmp
    queries on the requested host
   and will be formatted as follows:

    ```json

        }
    }
    ```

* /data/bgp/*`hostname`*

  The response will be a list of information about
   the bgp peerings configured for the requested host
   and will be formatted as follows:
