    my $n = NIOS->new(
        username  => "username",
        password  => "password",
        wapi_addr => "10.0.0.1",
    );


    $x = $n->get(

        params => {
            _paging           => 1,

DESCRIPTION

Perl bindings for https://www.infoblox.com/company/why-infoblox/nios-platform/

Normal usage

Normally, you will add some traits to the client, primarily DNS::NIOS::Traits::ApiMethods since it provides methods for some endpoints.

Minimal usage

Without any traits, DNS::NIOS provides access to all API endpoints using the methods described below.

CONSTRUCTOR

new

The following attributes are required at construction time:

  • username

    Configures the username to use to authenticate the connection to the remote instance of NIOS.

  • password

    Specifies the password to use to authenticate the connection to the remote instance of NIOS.

  • wapi_addr

    DNS hostname or address for connecting to the remote instance of NIOS WAPI.

    my $n = NIOS->new(
        username  => "username",
        password  => "password",
        wapi_addr => "10.0.0.1",
    );

Optional attributes:

  • insecure

    Enable or disable verifying SSL certificates when scheme is https. Default is false.

  • scheme

    Default is https.

  • timeout

    The amount of time before to wait before receiving a response. Default is 10.

  • wapi_version

    Specifies the version of WAPI to use. Default is v2.7.

  • debug

  • traits

    List of traits to apply, see DNS::NIOS::Traits.

METHODS

  • All methods require a path parameter that can be either a resource type (eg: "record:a") or a WAPI Object reference.

  • All methods return a DNS::NIOS::Response object.

create

    # Create a new A record:
    my $x = $n->create(
        path => "record:a",
        payload => {
            name     => "rhds.ext.home",
            ipv4addr => "10.0.0.1",
            extattrs => {
                "Tenant ID"       => { value => "home" },
                "CMP Type"        => { value => "OpenStack" },
                "Cloud API Owned" => { value => "True" }
            }
        }
    );

delete

    # Delete a WAPI Object Reference
    $x = $n->delete(path => $object_ref);

get

    # List all A records with:
    #   pagination
    #   limiting results to 1
    #   returning response as an object
    $x = $n->get(
        path   => 'record:a',
        params => {
            _paging           => 1,
            _max_results      => 1,
            _return_as_object => 1
        }
    );

update

    # Update a WAPI Object Reference
    $x = $n->update(
        path    => $object_ref,
        payload => {
          name => "updated_name"
        }
    );
