cottonmouth's Issues

separate service modules

Following to MTVS architecture in Django framework, separate operational logic from views.py and use them as service module.

add error-handling logic for local file search

In service_utils.py, case if user-input values are not in device_*.yml, the error-handling process or user notifications should be raised by the programs.
Currently when this case would occur, user just come across Django debugging menu.
The assertion below would be better to be included in try ... except.

    connect_device = configs[input_vplex.replace('#','_')]['connect_devices']

Add brief instructions for implementation of apps

Implemented RESTful API

• Basic implementation of RESTful-API
  • with `Django REST-API Framework (DRF)
  • Test would be expected to run by curl comands
• Updated pre-requirements to install djangorestframework and django-filter python libs

Setting up basic Django architectures

Integrations with custom ansible modules

• Integrations with Django and ansible commands
  • make ansible root within application root
  • add service modules within Django MTV archtechtures
  • kick ansible commands from service module

Update Django templates

• Update Django templates within MTV architechtures
  • create home.html to create web-front page
  • allow UI-users to operate interactively

enabled to find vplex ports from vplex name

In ansible-vplex module named storage_views.py, add the function to find target VPLEX FE-ports by target VPLEX name, which user would input from UI.

Create master-playbook for ansible functions

• create site.yml kicked by service modules of Django
• the playbook allows user to:
  • select target operations comment/un-comment the role of ansible
• ansible role would be:
  • ansible-vplex
  • ansible-mds
  • ansible-unity
  • ansible-vsphere
