Grab-N-Go - a little python tool to download files from Pivotal Network and upload them to one or many Ops Managers.

Python uses a package manager called pip - you will need this to install everything. Test if you have it by typing pip on a command line. If you don't have it try:

$ sudo easy_install pip

If that doesn't work - go read this. If you have dependency or permission problems your best bet is to use virtualenv (described in that link).

You need to edit conf.toml and enter your Pivotal Network API key:

Get your Pivotal Network API Key by logging into http://network.pivotal.io - it's at the bottom of your profile page.

Edit the conf.toml file and replace the dummy key:

api_key = "AG_u1blahblahblahMHqnF"

The first thing you need to do before downloading / uploading pivotal products is to update a local database of products. We will use the database for the other commands that follow.

$ python gng.py --update

Now that your local database is updated you can dump the contents to a file. I should just make this part of the update step. Next release perhaps?

$ python gng.py --dump-list [filename]

Open the dump you created, and cut / paste the lines that contain the files you want to download. You can name this new file whatever you want. Here's what it might look like:

Riak CS                                   1.5.7.0                     p-riak-cs-1.5.7.0.pivotal
Redis                                     1.5.2                       p-redis-1.5.2.0.pivotal
RabbitMQ                                  1.4.9                       p-rabbitmq-1.4.9.0.pivotal
Elastic Runtime                           1.6.8                       cf-1.6.8.pivotal

Now you have a list of files to download. Create a download directory and run the download command as follows:

$ mkdir [directory]
$ python gng.py --download [download-list-filename] --path [directory]

You can upload these files to more than one Ops Manager. Just create a TOML file of your choosing. We'll call ours opsmanager.toml

[[opsmanager]]
url = "54.86.17.2"
username = "admin"
password = "donkeybrain7"
[[opsmanager]]
url = "52.91.206.10"
username = "admin"
password = "monkeyhead8"

The upload command is as follows:

$ python gng.py --upload [ops-manager-list-toml-file] --path [directory]
