pip3 install --user pywisp_emibcn
Then configure as per ~/.pywisp
Finally, create the python script which implements the WISP infrastructure and authentication mechanisms, as per wisp.py

In this example, we hardcode relations between IPs, some device names, users and passwords. We could be getting those relations from where ever, for example, an SQL database, a secure wallet downloaded from an S3, an spreadsheet at GoogleDocs (sic), an internal REST API, etc. Examples are welcome via pull request.
You can add more types of devices (for example, Mimosa) subclassing SSHDevice
and instantiating it correctly from your wisp.py
. If you do so, I appreciate pull requests ;)
You can create a complete subclassed Wisp
object and pass it to PyWisp
on instantiation. This way you can use PyWisp from within other projects, like from your Django APP or from your Zabbix scripts, mantaining your infrastructure and authentication mechanisms centralized.
- Move
print
s and similars to agoodlogging system. - Enhance logging system
- Create examples repo with one
wisp.py
example - Create more examples (useful for testing, too)
- Create more and useful documentation
- Testing
- Testing, testing, testing...
