Simple utility to generate a configuration manifest from a live CloudFoundry installation

Project description

# cf-configuration-exporter

`cf-configuration-exporter` is a simple utility whose aim is to generate a
configuration manifest from a live installation of CloudFoundry.

The utility is meant to be used in combination with 2 other projects:

- https://github.com/SpringerPE/python-cfconfigurator
- https://github.com/SpringerPE/ansible-cloudfoundry-role

and helps you get started with an initial manifest without having to extract manually
all the information needed.

The code is compatible with Python 3

Documentation of the APIs used:

* https://apidocs.cloudfoundry.org
* https://docs.cloudfoundry.org/api/uaa

#INSTALLATION

## Example

Install via pip: `pip install cf-configuration-exporter`

## Upload to PyPI

1. Create a `.pypirc` configuration file. This file holds your information for authenticating with PyPI.

[pypi]
repository=https://pypi.python.org/pypi
username=your_username
password=your_password
```
2. Login and upload it to PyPI

```
python setup.py register -r pypi
python setup.py sdist upload -r pypi
```

#USAGE

```
Define the following env variables:

`EXPORTER_API_URL` = the endpoint of the Cloudfoundry API
`EXPORTER_ADMIN_USER` = username used for logging in to CloudFoundry
`EXPORTER_ADMIN_PASSWORD` = password used for logging in to Cloudfoundry
`EXPORTER_EXCLUDE_ENV_VARS` = list of `,` separated strings. The env variables whose name starts by
one of the prefixes listed will not be exported.
```

You can run the utility by executing the run script:
