I've made some more progress in a solution for my initial issue using
openwisp_ipam. I've managed to request an IP address and save the resulting
ip in the subnet with my signal function, now I need to assign to the
static interface config of the device I'm trying to save.
I've defined the JSON with the network interface that I want to use, next
step is set column config of the config_config table that has the device
id, I'm not so sure how to access the confg_config with the foreign key
pointing to my device object, should I import another model?
I noticed that when I'm manually adding the device from the Django admin
interface I need to create the device config manually, but devices
subscribing to the controller create this entry automatically.
Still need some improvements but the code looks like this:
if created:
#get device_id and device_org_id in device object
device = Device.objects.first()
device_id = str(getattr(device, 'id'))
device_org_id = str(getattr(device, 'organization_id'))
#define a config object
config = Config.objects.filter(device_id=device_id).first
# to be use later to filer subnets inside same orgs
#get org subnet_id
r = requests.get('http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/v1/subnet/',auth=('user',
'pass')).json()
sub_id= str(r["results"][0]['id'])
mask = str(r["results"][0]['subnet'].split('/',3)[1])
req_ip = requests.get('http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/v1/subnet/'+str(
sub_id)+'/get-first-available-ip/',auth=('user','pass')).json()
p_data = { 'description': 'auto generated ip', 'ip_address': temp_ip,
'subnet': sub_id }
#save ip to device's subnet config
r = requests.post('http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/v1/subnet/'+str(sub_id)+
'/request-ip/', json=p_data, auth=('user','pass'))
#config to be inserted in the database
config_list = {'interfaces': [{'type': 'bridge', 'bridge_members': [
'eth0.1', 'eth0.2'], 'name': 'cable', 'disabled': False, 'addresses': [{
'proto': 'static', 'family': 'ipv4', 'address': req_ip, 'mask': mask}],
'network': 'cable'}]}
#insert json in config column of config_device table
setattr(config, 'config',json.dumps(config_list))
#get device config_id
Thanks for the suggestions so far. I'm open to feedback how to improve this
.
Cheers
