Hi Priyank, ODL can be controlled via RESTCONF and NETCONF northbound (probably other ways too that I am forgetting, others please chime in...). I am guessing you will have to write some middle-ware, but you should be able to do some cool things with the aforementioned northbound protocols.
For example, a while back I wrote a very basic application that monitored interface utilization and added an OpenFlow flow to redirect traffic over a less utilized link when one link hit a high watermark (I added the flow via RESTCONF, which programmed the flow appropriately through openflowplugin and openflowjava southbound). It really depends what you want to do; I would suggest inspecting the available protocols and figure out what works for your specific use case. RESTCONF includes a very convenient swagger ui to explore some of the available APIs; you can install it through the following: karaf> feature:install odl-mdsal-apidocs Then navigate to the following IP: http://{controller_ip}:8181/apidoc/explorer/index.html Username / password is admin/admin. Hope this helps spur some ideas at least!
