NetWorker: Sådan gør du kommandolinjen REST API JSON-svar menneskelig læsbar

NetWorker REST (Representational State Transfer)-API-kald kan udføres fra kommandolinjen på en Linux NetWorker-server ved hjælp af curl kommando. F.eks.:

curl -k -u USERNAME:'PASSWORD' https://localhost:9090/nwrestapi/v3/global/RESTAPI-ENDPOINT

Svardataene for en GET-handling er i JSON. Standardsvaret kan være svært at analysere, da det typisk er en gang kontinuerlig linje. F.eks.:

nve:~ # curl -k -u Administrator:'!Password1' https://localhost:9090/nwrestapi/v3/global

JSON-outputtet er uformateret og kan være svært at analysere. Outputtet kan dog formateres til et lettere at læse "Pretty Print" -format.

For NetWorker Virtual Edition-systemer (NVE) kan du tilføje python -m json.tool til curl kommando. F.eks.:

nve:~ # curl -k -u Administrator:'!Password1' https://localhost:9090/nwrestapi/v3/global | python -m json.tool

            "title": "List of alert messages"
        },
        {
            "href": "https://localhost:9090/nwrestapi/v3/global/auditlogconfig",
            "title": "Audit log configuration"
        },
        {
            "href": "https://localhost:9090/nwrestapi/v3/global/auditlogconfigs",
            "title": "Audit log configurations"
        },
        {
            "href": "https://localhost:9090/nwrestapi/v3/global/backups",
            "title": "List of backups"
        },
        {
            "href": "https://localhost:9090/nwrestapi/v3/global/clients",
            "title": "List of clients"
        },
        ******* Removed for brevity *******
    ]
}

For andre Linux-systemer kan dette opnås ved at tilføje jq til curl kommando:

[root@nsr ~]# curl -k -u Administrator:'!Password1' https://localhost:9090/nwrestapi/v3/global | jq
  % Total    % Received % Xferd  Average Speed   Time    Time     Time  Current
                                 Dload  Upload   Total   Spent    Left  Speed

  "links": [
    {
      "href": "https://localhost:9090/nwrestapi/v3/global/alerts",
      "title": "List of alert messages"
    },
    {
      "href": "https://localhost:9090/nwrestapi/v3/global/auditlogconfig",
      "title": "Audit log configuration"
    },
    {
      "href": "https://localhost:9090/nwrestapi/v3/global/auditlogconfigs",
      "title": "Audit log configurations"
    },
    {
      "href": "https://localhost:9090/nwrestapi/v3/global/backups",
      "title": "List of backups"
    },
    {
      "href": "https://localhost:9090/nwrestapi/v3/global/clients",
      "title": "List of clients"
    },

For Windows-værter er det usandsynligt, at det bruger kommandolinjen til at opnå dette. Dette gøres typisk via PowerShell, som kræver yderligere funktioner, der ofte involverer scripting. De fleste Windows-baserede systemer bruger en brugergrænseflade som Post-Man til at formatere REST API GET-anmodninger.
