Equinix Network Edge Go client

Equinix Network Edge (NE) client library written in Go.

---

Purpose

Equinix Network Edge client library was written in Go for purpose of managing NE resources from Terraform provider plugin.

Library gives possibility to manage virtual network devices and associated network services.

NOTE: scope of this library is limited to needs of Terraform provider plugin and it is not providing full capabilities of Equinix Network Edge API

Usage

Code

1. Add ne-go module to import statement. In below example, Equinix oauth2-go module is imported as well

   import (
   "github.com/equinix/oauth2-go"
   "github.com/equinix/ne-go"
   )

2. Define baseURL that will be used in all REST API requests

   baseURL := "https://api.equinix.com"

3. Create oAuth configuration and oAuth enabled http.Client

   authConfig := oauth2.Config{
     ClientID:     "someClientId",
     ClientSecret: "someSecret",
     BaseURL:      baseURL}
   ctx := context.Background()
   authClient := authConfig.New(ctx)

4. Create NE REST client with a given baseURL and oauth's http.Client

   var neClient ne.Client = ne.NewClient(ctx, baseURL, authClient)

5. Use NE client to perform some operation i.e. get device details

   device, err := neClient.GetDevice("existingDeviceUUID")
   if err != nil {
     log.Printf("Error while fetching device - %v", err)
   } else {
     log.Printf("Retrieved device - %+v", device)
   }
