fabric-slice-manage

Instructions

When invoked, generate code for FABRIC slice lifecycle management operations. Determine which operation the user needs:

• List: Show all slices or filter by state
• Inspect: Get details of a specific slice (nodes, networks, interfaces)
• Renew: Extend a slice lease
• Modify: Add or remove nodes/networks from a running slice
• Delete: Remove a slice or all slices

Always assume FABlib is initialized as fablib.

API Reference

Listing Slices

fablib.list_slices(
    excludes: list[SliceState] = None,  # States to exclude
    output: str = None,                  # "text", "pandas", "json", "list"
    fields: list[str] = None,           # Fields to display
    quiet: bool = False,
    filter_function=None,
    pretty_names: bool = True,
)

Getting a Slice

# By name
slice = fablib.get_slice(name="my-slice")

# By ID
slice = fablib.get_slice(slice_id="abc-123-def")

# Get multiple slices
slices = fablib.get_slices(
    excludes: list[SliceState] = None,
    slice_name: str = None,
    slice_id: str = None,
    user_only: bool = True,
)

Slice Information

slice.show(fields=None, output=None, quiet=False, colors=False, pretty_names=True)
slice.list_nodes(output=None, fields=None, colors=False, quiet=False, filter_function=None, pretty_names=True)
slice.list_networks(output=None, fields=None, colors=False, quiet=False, filter_function=None, pretty_names=True)
slice.list_interfaces(output=None, fields=None, quiet=False, filter_function=None, pretty_names=True, refresh=False)

Accessing Nodes

node = slice.get_node(name="node1")
nodes = slice.get_nodes()

# Execute commands on a node
stdout, stderr = node.execute("hostname")

# SSH command for manual access
print(node.get_ssh_command())

# Management IP (IPv6)
print(node.get_management_ip())

Renewing a Slice

# Renew by number of days
slice.renew(days=14)

# Renew to a specific end date (UTC)
from datetime import datetime, timezone, timedelta
end_date = (datetime.now(timezone.utc) + timedelta(days=6)).strftime("%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S %z")
slice.renew(end_date=end_date)
