Anyone know of or have a scipt to download multiple device configurations at once? I'm thinking of writing a script that will identify resources within a group and then download their configurations for a specific configsource instance. I can't be the first one to want this though so thought I'd check here.

Just now, mnagel said: It is not JSON, it is YAML. Example: --- companies: PORTALNAME: access_id: 'ACCESS-ID' access_key: 'ACCESS-KEY' I probably should sync up to our current version -- we've had to add exceptions regularly to keep from being inundated with fake changes due to inadequate error handling in the LM code. Wish we could just integrate Oxidized sometimes. At least there if problems are found, people generally fix them. Oops, sorry -- was thinking this was a reference to my script for some reason... :).

https://github.com/willingminds/lmapi-scripts See lm-get-configs and the run-lm-get-configs wrapper. There are a fair number of workarounds in the main script due to various problems with module behavior. I am currently battling an apparent API bug where the query we use (basically, sort in reverse by version and provide the first result) triggers a bizarre "too many predicates" error. Sent that back to dev when they wanted to wash their hands of it because our API code is in Perl and is "unsupported". To use the API module, you need a .lmapi file in the caller's home directly with one set of credentials per portal in YAML. For example: --- companies: willingminds: access_id: '****' access_key: '****' The wrapper runs the script and checks into git -- not necessary, but we want to track changes and have post-commit hooks to get email reports on what changed. This was the original reason we wrote it, but it is also super helpful to be able to scan all configs at once with grep or with template-validation tools, etc.

Just to be sure, you're not talking about downloading from the device to LM. You're talking about downloading from LM to your laptop. I thought the first until I saw @mnagel's response.

I thought the first until I saw @mnagel's response. You may be right, I just could not see how that would make sense given the way LM does it or why it would be useful :).

@Stuart Weenig Correct, download a collection of configs from LM to a local device. @mnagel Thank for the link. However, I am going to be a choosy beggar since I am useless with perl. I decided to go ahead and write something in python and will link it here if it turns out to be any good.
