From Foreman to Iot Platforme

Development
1

Hi everyone ,

 I m trying to develop a plugin in Foreman so i can manage  all the

devices that are connected to my IoT platform . I can communicate with my
IoT platform via REST API . In first place with GET request i can get all
the devices on Foreman with their parameters . My problem now is when i
change the parameters in foreman or deleting devices I need to see the
changes on my IoT platform . i really need help because i m trying to
convince my colleague that Foreman can do it .
THANKS

Is the plugin open source and available somewhere? That generally makes
it much easier to help.

For inspiration it might be good to look at foreman_hooks. That has
triggers when an object is changed or deleted. You might even find that
just using foreman_hooks could be enough for your use case.

In that case I would start with foreman_hooks and perform the POST
request. You can even do this in bash with curl if you want.

https://github.com/theforeman/foreman_hooks#usage describes how you can
create your own hooks.

So when we run the scripts of hook the changes will be seen on my iot
platform … !!! so it will allow me to see the new created device on
my platform
