Client.factory.create

Nathan Gageby — Tue, 20 Mar 2018 20:17:33 GMT

I am new to all of this and attempting to automate some CSS/PT creation. I am having success when I have only an item to add/create. When I need to create an item like a CSS with members I am running into issue. I am trying to use the factory.create component of SUDS to build everything I need to pass to CCM for a new CSS. Sample below:

newCSS = client.factory.create('ns0:XCss')

newCSS.name = siteName + '-CSS'

This will generate the below object for me:

(XCss){

description = None

members =

(members){

member[] = <empty>

}

partitionUsage = None

name = None

My issue is populating the tier below "members =". I am not able to get that populated in the correct format to send to CCM. This same issue repeats itself when creating a hunt group. I have tried using the schema guide but find it less than helpful. I am not able to factory.create(members) in any variation 'ns0:members' 'ns0:addMembers' etc...

I would like a sample of how this works or some guidance on how to determine the method to populate memberships when working in Python with SUDS. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I Have made some progress from the above. I am able to add a member but only in the “none” partition. When I need to specify a partition for the directory number the number is not added to the line group.

def CreateHuntGroup(client):

client.factory.create('ns0:XHuntList')

lineGroup = client.factory.create('ns0:XLineGroup')

member = client.factory.create('ns0:XLineGroupMember')

member.directoryNumber.pattern = '4001'

member.directoryNumber.routePartitionName = 'PTid-PT'

lineGroup.members = member

lineGroup.name = 'Function1s'

client.service.addLineGroup(lineGroup)

return lineGroup

Thanks all

-—-not to confuse but the codes are for two different processes. The original post was for adding a css. I was able to complete that but as I progressed I then found I was not able to reliable use members. In the recent code attachment I am using members to add a line group member and have again become stuck.

If you don't have to use a client factory, just add the attributes in a dict when calling the axl method.

axl = Client(wsdl_url, location=service_url, username=username, password=password)

css_kwargs = {

   "name": "suds_css",
   "members": {

   "member": [

{

   "index": "1",
   "routePartitionName": "Phones_Pt"
   },
   {

   "index": "2",
   "routePartitionName": "Xlate_Pt"
   }

]

}

}

axl.service.addCss(css=css_kwargs)

Sadly, Jive's formatting stinks, but you need to supply a list of members if have more than one.

The attributes within "member" change between methods.

For Css:

               <member>

                  <routePartitionName uuid="?">?</routePartitionName>

                  <index>?</index>

               </member>

            </members>

Compared to LineGroup:

               <member>

                  <lineSelectionOrder>?</lineSelectionOrder>

                  <directoryNumber uuid="?">

                     <pattern>?</pattern>

                     <routePartitionName uuid="?">?</routePartitionName>

                  </directoryNumber>

               </member>

And HuntGroup:

               <member>

                  <lineGroupName uuid="?">?</lineGroupName>

                  <selectionOrder>?</selectionOrder>

               </member>

Below if my lineGroup to send via client.service.addLineGroup If I send this I will have no members. If I however remove the line from any partition and send this without that section it will add a member. What am I missing?

Thanks!

lineGroup

(XLineGroup){

distributionAlgorithm = None

rnaReversionTimeOut = None

huntAlgorithmNoAnswer = None

huntAlgorithmBusy = None

huntAlgorithmNotAvailable = None

members =

(XLineGroupMember){

lineSelectionOrder = ""

directoryNumber =

(XDirn){

pattern = "4001"

routePartitionName =

(routePartitionName){

value = "PTid-PT"

_uuid = "{7A7B4C11-F9BB-6322-CEA4-BC358AB581E9}"

}

_uuid = ""

}

name = "ThisIsIt"

autoLogOffHunt = None

}

>>> }

Thanks!

Can you share a sample script?

This is without the dictionary shown in prior posts.

Working for me:

wsdl = WSDL

location = LOCATION

UN = USERNAME

PW = PASSWORD

tns = 'http://schemas.cisco.com/ast/soap/'
   imp = Import('http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/', 'http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/')

ssl._create_default_https_context = ssl._create_unverified_context

client = Client(wsdl,location=location,faults=False, plugins=[ImportDoctor(imp)], username=UN, password=PW)

   return client

def CreateHuntGroup(client):

client.factory.create('ns0:XHuntList')

lineGroup = client.factory.create('ns0:XLineGroup')

m = client.factory.create('ns0:XLineGroupMember')

m.lineSelectionOrder = 1
   m.directoryNumber.pattern = '4007'
   m.directoryNumber.routePartitionName = 'Phones_Pt'
   lineGroup.members.member = [m]

lineGroup.name = 'Function1s_2'
   client.service.addLineGroup(lineGroup)

def main():

client = AXLConnect()

CreateHuntGroup(client)

if __name__ == '__main__':

main()

Thanks. I made this partition using another program so maybe it has a space or something I am not capturing. suggestion on a list line or list dn type code segment I can use to populate member so I am sure I don’t typo it?

Thanks again for all the help here.
