Hi all,

Below is the sample script.yml that i found and when i execute the script in jsnappy then the outpout was in format xml. But i want the format into "text". I'm already add script format: 'text' but when execute it still in xml format. Appreciate any help.

BFD-Check:
- command: show bfd session
- iterate:
    tests:
    - err: BFD Session With {{post["session-neighbor"]}}, not UP , rather it's {{post["session-state"]}}
      info: All BFD Sessions are 'UP'
      is-equal: session-state, Up
    xpath: bfd-session

CORE-check:
- command: show system core-dumps
- item:
    id: re-name
    tests:
    - err: Core-Dumps found!!!
      info: Core-Dumps Check No Core dumps generated
      no-diff: /total-files
      ignore-null: true
    xpath: multi-routing-engine-item

Chassis-check:
- command: show chassis hardware detail
- iterate:
    id: name
    tests:
    - err: 'The FRU {{pre["chassis-module/name"]}} , Model Name {{pre["chassis-module/model-number"]}} Have
        Problem '
      info: Hardware Chassis check
      list-not-less: null
    xpath: //chassis


tests_include:
- BFD-Check
- Chassis-check
- CORE-check

Hi all,

any one can help?

Thanks

Can you elaborate on how you're executing these tests? For instance, here's my full terminal output for a test file I created. 

~$ jsnapy --snapcheck -f ../jsnapyconfig.yaml -v
Tests Included : test_applications
Taking snapshot of RPC: get-config
***************************** Device: 127.0.0.1 *****************************
Tests Included: test_applications

----------------------Performing is-equal Test Operation----------------------

PASS | All "destination-port" is equal to "30000" [ 1 matched ]
------------------------------- Final Result!! -------------------------------

Overall Tests passed!!!

Hi mattoswalt,

Can u do "cat file_name" of the  output result? Is it on XML format or not. The result that i want is the "text" format.

Thanks

FYI it's usually a lot faster/easier if you post everything you've done so others can try to reproduce and compare results. So I'll make some assumptions about what you're doing as a result. I am assuming by "output" you mean one of the snapshot files. You wish to write the retrieved configuration snapshot out as text rather than XML. This seems to work for me by adding the `format: text` statement to one of my tests as shown below (Note the wiki page covering this):

test_applications:
  - rpc: get-config
    format: text
  - item:
      id: ./name
      xpath: 'applications/application[name="k8sfrontend"]'
      tests:
        - is-equal: destination-port, 3058
          info: "Test Succeeded!!, destination-port is <{{post['destination-port']}}>"
          err: "Test Failed!!!, destination-port is <{{post['destination-port']}}>"

jsnapy --snap pre -f ../jsnapyconfig.yaml -v

~$ cat venv/etc/jsnapy/snapshots/127.0.0.1_pre_get_config.text
<configuration-text>
## Last changed: 2018-02-21 01:30:21 UTC

    host-name vsrx01;

Hi mattoswalt,

Yes, the config output is display as "text" but how about such as "show interface terse". Can u try that?

Thanks

Absolutely! Here's a test I wrote for this:

test_interfaces_terse:
  - command: show interfaces terse
    format: text
  - iterate:
      xpath: physical-interface
      id: './name'
      tests:
        - no-diff: oper-status       # element in which test is performed
          err: "Test Failed!! oper-status  got changed, before it was <{{pre['oper-status']}}>, now it is <{{post['oper-status']}}>"
          info: "Test Passed!! oper-status is same, before it is <{{pre['oper-status']}}> now it is <{{post['oper-status']}}>"

And the result after snapshot is the text you'd normally see in the terminal:

~$ jsnapy --snap pre -f jsnapyconfig.yaml -v
Tests Included : test_applications
Taking snapshot of RPC: get-config
Tests Included: test_interfaces_terse
Taking snapshot of COMMAND: show interfaces terse

~$ venv/etc/jsnapy/snapshots/127.0.0.1_pre_show_interfaces_terse.text                                                                                                                                                        [15:27:09]

Hi mattoswalt,

Thanks for your feedback. Let's me try the script as per your show in my lab first. I will feedback the result.

Thanks again

Hi mattoswalt,

Your script is worked!!. It's look like i miss put wrong location on format: text.

Thanks for your help.

Excellent - glad to hear!
