Using ARouteServer as a library¶

External programs can take advantage of ARouteServer’s features to automatically build route server configurations by using the following builder classes:

BIRDConfigBuilder
OpenBGPDConfigBuilder

How to use it¶

The __init__ method takes care of initializing the builder object; this method also gathers any external information needed by the input route server configuration.

The render_template method generates the output configuration.

Example:

import sys
from pierky.arouteserver.builder import BIRDConfigBuilder
builder = BIRDConfigBuilder(
        template_dir="~/arouteserver/templates/bird",
        template_name="main.j2",
        cfg_general="~/arouteserver/config.d/general.yml",
        cfg_clients="~/arouteserver/config.d/clients.yml",
        cfg_bogons="~/arouteserver/config.d/bogons.yml",
        cache_dir="~/arouteserver/var",
        ip_ver=4
)
builder.render_template(sys.stdout)
