A Python package for automating VideoIPath configuration workflows.

PyPI versionGitHub Workflow StatusPython VersionsLicense: AGPL v3


⚠️ Attention ⚠️
This Python package, the VideoIPath Automation Tool, is still under development and currently in the beta phase. Features and interfaces may change as development progresses. Feel free to use the module and provide feedback, but be aware that breaking changes may occur in future versions.

Introduction

The VideoIPath Automation Tool is a Python package designed to simplify and optimize interactions with the VideoIPath API. The focus is on providing a user-friendly and efficient way to automate configuration tasks and bulk operations on VideoIPath servers. The package abstracts the complexity of the API and provides a high-level interface. Currently, the package offers methods for managing devices in the Inventory and Topology apps, as well as the configuration of multicast pools and profiles.

The provided methods and data models ensure easy handling, robust validation, comprehensive logging, and enhanced reliability.

Quick Start Guide

Prerequisites

  • Access to a VideoIPath Server (version 2023.4.2 or higher, LTS versions recommended)
  • Username and Password for a user account with API access
  • Python 3.11 or higher

Installation

The package is available via the Python Package Index (PyPI) and can be installed directly using pip.

Install the package using pip

pip install videoipath-automation-tool

Note: By default, the latest Long-Term Support (LTS) version (currently 2024.4.30) is used for schema validation and IntelliSense.

To switch to a specific version, see the Driver Versioning Guide

A Simple Example: Adding a Device to the Inventory

# Import the `VideoIPathApp` class from the videoipath_automation_tool packagefromvideoipath_automation_toolimportVideoIPathApp# Initialize the VideoIPathAppapp=VideoIPathApp(server_address="10.1.100.10", username="api-user", password="veryStrongPassword", use_https=False, verify_ssl_cert=False)
# Create a device object with NMOS Multidevice driverstaged_device=app.inventory.create_device(driver="com.nevion.NMOS_multidevice-0.1.0")
# Set the device label, description, address, nmos port and disable 'Use indices in IDs' optionstaged_device.configuration.label="Media-Node-1"staged_device.configuration.description="Hello World"staged_device.configuration.address="10.100.100.1"staged_device.configuration.custom_settings.port=8080staged_device.configuration.custom_settings.indices_in_ids=False# Add the configured device to the inventory of the VideoIPath server# This immediately registers the device and returns the assigned device object.try:

print(f"Device added successfully: {device.device_id}")
#> Device added successfully: device34exceptExceptionase:
print(f"Failed to add device: {e}")

A Python package for automating VideoIPath configuration workflows.

PyPI versionGitHub Workflow StatusPython VersionsLicense: AGPL v3


⚠️ Attention ⚠️
This Python package, the VideoIPath Automation Tool, is still under development and currently in the beta phase. Features and interfaces may change as development progresses. Feel free to use the module and provide feedback, but be aware that breaking changes may occur in future versions.

Introduction

The VideoIPath Automation Tool is a Python package designed to simplify and optimize interactions with the VideoIPath API. The focus is on providing a user-friendly and efficient way to automate configuration tasks and bulk operations on VideoIPath servers. The package abstracts the complexity of the API and provides a high-level interface. Currently, the package offers methods for managing devices in the Inventory and Topology apps, as well as the configuration of multicast pools and profiles.

The provided methods and data models ensure easy handling, robust validation, comprehensive logging, and enhanced reliability.

Quick Start Guide

Prerequisites

  • Access to a VideoIPath Server (version 2023.4.2 or higher, LTS versions recommended)
  • Username and Password for a user account with API access
  • Python 3.11 or higher

Installation

The package is available via the Python Package Index (PyPI) and can be installed directly using pip.

Install the package using pip

pip install videoipath-automation-tool

Note: By default, the latest Long-Term Support (LTS) version (currently 2024.4.30) is used for schema validation and IntelliSense.

To switch to a specific version, see the Driver Versioning Guide

A Simple Example: Adding a Device to the Inventory

# Import the `VideoIPathApp` class from the videoipath_automation_tool packagefromvideoipath_automation_toolimportVideoIPathApp# Initialize the VideoIPathAppapp=VideoIPathApp(server_address="10.1.100.10", username="api-user", password="veryStrongPassword", use_https=False, verify_ssl_cert=False)
# Create a device object with NMOS Multidevice driverstaged_device=app.inventory.create_device(driver="com.nevion.NMOS_multidevice-0.1.0")
# Set the device label, description, address, nmos port and disable 'Use indices in IDs' optionstaged_device.configuration.label="Media-Node-1"staged_device.configuration.description="Hello World"staged_device.configuration.address="10.100.100.1"staged_device.configuration.custom_settings.port=8080staged_device.configuration.custom_settings.indices_in_ids=False# Add the configured device to the inventory of the VideoIPath server# This immediately registers the device and returns the assigned device object.try:
device=app.inventory.add_device(staged_device)
print(f"Device added successfully: {device.device_id}")
#> Device added successfully: device34exceptExceptionase:
print(f"Failed to add device: {e}")
