NetWarden - network automation controller written in Python

This is the repository with the code written live on the streams. It is going to be built over multiple streams.
The goal of this project is to build a network automation controller using state-of-the-art technologies: Python asyncio / FastAPI web framework / RESTCONF/NETCONF / Vue.JS.
Unlike other open-source NMS/controllers (e.g. eNMS), this project is not planned to be released on PyPi and maintained. Instead, it is a sample code to show what is possible and how hard/easy it is to build your custom network controller from scratch.

Controller functions

This controller should be able to do the following:

• Display overview of the inventory
• Gather some operational statistics from the whole network on-demand
• Make configuration changes either high-level services or some low-level details
• Perform network testing on schedule or on-demand to verify the network health
• Provision new devices (ZTP)
• Manage software images on the devices
