mininetRest 0.0.1
- Bottle Web framework:
sudo pip install bottle - mininet: see http://mininet.org/download/
MininetRest is a Bottle Web Application that wraps a Mininet Object and allows to interact with Mininet through a REST API.
File demo.py is an example of how to launch mininetRest.
MininetRest accepts a Mininet Object. 'demo.py' instantiates a singleSwitch with 2 hosts.
In order to test the launched webapp, we provide a postman collection (https://www.getpostman.com/)
that illustrate the available requests. The collection is the file mininet-api.json.postman_collection
At the moment the REST API allows:
- get a list of the mininet nodes.
- get a list of the mininet hosts.
- get a list of the mininet switches.
- get a list of the mininet links.
- get the interfaces of a node.
- set an interface of a node up or down.
- set the bandwidth and delay of an interface of a node.
- execute a command in a node.
MininetRest class at file mininet_rest.py is the core of mininetRest.
It is a derived class of the Bottle class (http://bottlepy.org/docs/dev/index.html)
