defaults¶

dict() → Dict[str, Any]¶

get(item: str, default: Any = None) → Any¶

Returns the value item from the host or hosts group variables.

Parameters:	item (`str`) – The variable to get default (`any`) – Return value if item not found

get_connection(connection: str, configuration: nornir.core.configuration.Config) → Any¶

The function of this method is twofold:

If an existing connection is already established for the given type return it

If none exists, establish a new connection of that type with default parameters and return it

Raises:	`AttributeError` – if it’s unknown how to establish a connection for the given type
Parameters:	connection – Name of the connection, for instance, netmiko, paramiko, napalm…
Returns:	An already established connection

get_connection_parameters(connection: Optional[str] = None) → nornir.core.inventory.ConnectionOptions¶

has_parent_group(group: Union[str, Group]) → bool¶: Returns whether the object is a child of the Group group

items() → ItemsView[str, Any]¶: Returns all the data accessible from a device, including the one inherited from parent groups

keys() → KeysView[str]¶: Returns the keys of the attribute data and of the parent(s) groups.

name¶

open_connection(connection: str, configuration: nornir.core.configuration.Config, hostname: Optional[str] = None, username: Optional[str] = None, password: Optional[str] = None, port: Optional[int] = None, platform: Optional[str] = None, extras: Optional[Dict[str, Any]] = None, default_to_host_attributes: bool = True) → nornir.core.plugins.connections.ConnectionPlugin¶

Open a new connection.

If default_to_host_attributes is set to True arguments will default to host attributes if not specified.

Raises:	`AttributeError` – if it’s unknown how to establish a connection for the given type
Returns:	An already established connection

classmethod schema() → Dict[str, Any]¶

values() → ValuesView[Any]¶: Returns the values of the attribute data and of the parent(s) groups.

defaults¶

dict() → Dict[str, Any]¶: Return serialized dictionary of inventory
