pyxmatters

pyxmatters is a python3 sdk that provides a RESTful interface with xMatters. Additionally there are capabilities to interface with csv files.

Install, Upgrades, and use of pyxmatters

For Production use it is strongly recommended to download the pyxmatters package locally from GitHub, specifically the xmatters directory, and set the xmatters directory alongside the script leveraging it. For use locally, just enter import xmatters at the top of the calling script as documented in the steps below. This is import is the same procedure as if the package was downloaded using pip. Also, this SDK is a work in progress, not all REST API's are wrapped, so there is additional value in having a local copy to modify as needed.

For installing locally with the understanding the package will change and could break your script, follow the steps below:

To Install via pip, navigate to the terminal and enter:

pip3 install pyxmatters

To Upgrade via pip, navigate to terminal and enter:

sudo pip3 install --upgrade --force-reinstall pyxmatters

Quick Start

For a quick start sample file, see the sample source directory. If using a local copy of pyxmatters, just set the xmatters directory alongside the config.py and sample.py in the /sample directory.

pyxmatters/rest

This directory provides user, device, group, and site rest api capabilities.

Quick Notes on URL Filters in Methods

Check the url filter string in the signature to determine the proper use of ? or &
For any methods that include collections i.e. xMattersPerson.get_person_collection, xMattersGroup.get_group_collection, and _xMattersRoster.get_roster_collection by default offset and limit will be stripped. Only & is supported. So &status=ACTIVE or status=ACTIVE will work.
Lastly, by default anything that will be leveraged in a URL will be auto encoded, this applies to targetNames, id's, and the aforementioned filters. So for xMattersPerson.get_person_collection the following embed=roles&roles=Standard User is fine to pass to as this will be handled automatically.

pyxmatters/rest/person.py

For specific method signature detail see the file documented above for specifics.

Below is an example of interfacing with xMattersPerson. Below are the methods available:

get_person: Accepts the username or user id as well as an optional url filter string i.e. ?embed=roles,supervisors
get_people: Accepts an optional url filter string, i.e. ?embed=roles,devices&offset=0&limit=1000
create_person: Requires the json object to create the xMatters record as documented on the xMatters REST API
modify_person: Requires the json object to create the xMatters record as documented on the xMatters REST API
remove_person: Requires the users id
get_people_collection: A single threaded process to return all users from an instance, there is no limit on what is returned, the process will loop for all records requested. So if there are 60k records in the instance, all records will be returned. To refine the search this function also accepts an optional url filter string, i.e. &embed=roles&roles=Standard User

Script Example:

import xmatters
import logging
logging.basicConfig(filename='log.log',level=10,datefmt='%m-%d-%Y %H:%M:%S',format='%(asctime)s %(name)s %(levelname)s: %(message)s')
log = logging.getLogger(__name__)

environment = xmatters.xMattersAPI("https://<instance>.xmatters.com", "rest_username", "rest_password")
xm_person = xmatters.xMattersPerson(environment)

log.info("Starting Process")
xm_person.create_person({'targetName': 'username', 'firstName': 'firstname', 'lastName': 'lastName', 'roles': ['Group Supervisor']})
user_id = xm_person.get_person('username')['id']

    log.info("Received On Call Schedule for Group: " + json.dumps(group_on_call))

pyxmatters/rest/collection.py

Create, Update, Delete

Below is an example of leveraging the xMattersCollection. This python module is a powerful tool to be used increase throughput when executing updates in xMatters. This process was built only for Create, Modify, and Deletion methods. Getter methods should leverage the aforementioned collection methods that are found in the respective moduldes.

The value of this collection is that it provides the ability to include threading or concurrency. Below is an example of using it. The collection module itself is very dynamic, it will always require:

import xmatters
environment = xmatters.xMattersAPI("https://<instance>.xmatters.com", "rest_username", "rest_password")
xm_collection = xmatters.xMattersCollection(environment)
max_thread_count = 5

xm_collection.create_collection(INSERT_METHOD_NAME, ARRAY_OF_DATA, max_thread_count)

Where in the above INSERT_METHOD_NAME is the associated Create, Update, or Delete method. Where ARRAY_OF_DATA is the associated data to send to the function.

The ARRAY_OF_DATA must match the signature of the method being called, so for instance, since xMattersGroup.create_group accepts a parameter named data, ARRAY_OF_DATA in this case must look like to match the method signature:

[{"data":{"targetName": "groupname_1"}}, {"data":{"targetName": "groupname_2"}}, {"data":{"targetName": "groupname_3"}}]

In another scenario, since xMattersShift.add_member_to_shift accepts 3 parameters named group_id, shift_id, and member_id, ARRAY_OF_DATA in this case must look like to match the method signature:

[{"group_id": "groupname_1", "shift_id": "Default Shift", "member_id": "username_1"}, {"group_id": "groupname_1", "shift_id": "Default Shift", "member_id": "username_2"}, {"group_id": "groupname_1", "shift_id": "Default Shift", "member_id": "username_3"}]

Script Example:

import xmatters
import logging
import json

logging.basicConfig(filename="log.log",level=10,datefmt="%m-%d-%Y %H:%M:%S",format="%(asctime)s %(name)s %(levelname)s: %(message)s")
log = logging.getLogger(__name__)

environment = xmatters.xMattersAPI("https://<instance>.xmatters.com", "rest_username", "rest_password")
xm_collection = xmatters.xMattersCollection(environment)
max_thread_count = 5

# Example person thread creation
xm_person = xmatters.xMattersPerson(environment)

person_data = []
for x in range(10):
    person_data.append({"data":{"targetName": "username_"+str(x), "firstName": "username_"+str(x), "lastName": "username_"+str(x), "roles": ["Group Supervisor"]}})
person_create_response = xm_collection.create_collection(xm_person.create_person, person_data, max_thread_count)
log.info("Success Response: "+json.dumps(person_create_response["response"]))
log.info("Error Response: " + json.dumps(person_create_response["errors"]))

# Example group thread creation

log.info("Success Response: "+json.dumps(group_create_response["response"]))
log.info("Error Response: " + json.dumps(group_create_response["errors"]))


# Example of add member thread
xm_shift = xmatters.xMattersShift(environment)
member_data = []

pyxmatters/util

This directory contains misc. utilities that provide benefits to users executing ETL processes with pyxmatters.

pyxmatters/util/column.py

column.py is a class responsible for reading csv files. The intent of this class is to treat a csv like a sql db.

The core function leveraged in column.py is get_rows, below are the details for the function

    Method: def get_rows(self, columns, select=None, distinct=None, delimiter_to_array=None):

    columns [Array] (Required):
        Array of string objects that are to be retrieved from the file i.e.,
        ['targetName', 'roles'] will only return identified headers
        ["*"] will return all columns

    select [Set or Dict] (Optional): This is a single SELECT statement
        Pass either a set() i.e. {"targetName"}
        or Pass a dict() i.e. {"targetName": "Application Developers"}
        This will be default only accept the first value passed in either the set or dict

    distinct [Boolean] Optional: This field will return duplicate rows for a key if false, if true will
        return every occurrence for a key

    delimiter_to_array [String](Optional): delimiter to be used to split a field value to an array, i.e.
        if ";" provided: ldavid;jseinfeld --> ['ldavid', 'jseinfeld']

Save the file below as a dynamic_teams.csv in UTF-8 Encoding:

targetName,supervisors,observers,operand,criterionType,field,criterionOperand,value
Dynamic Teams 1,jerry.seinfeld,Company Supervisor,OR,CUSTOM_FIELD,City,EQUALS,Philadelphia
Dynamic Teams 1,jerry.seinfeld,Company Supervisor,OR,CUSTOM_FIELD,City,EQUALS,Washington D.C.
Dynamic Teams 2,larry.david;jerry.seinfeld,REST Web Service User;Company Supervisor,OR,CUSTOM_FIELD,City,EQUALS,Based at Home
