mreg-cli is a command line interface for the MREG API.
Options can be set in ~/.config/mreg-cli.conf. A typical config file looks like this:
[mreg]
USER=mreg-user
SERVER=https://mreg.example.com:8000Commands in mreg-cli take on the form of a fairly standard command line interface:
host add myhost.example.com 192.168.1.1 [email protected] -hinfo Linux -comment "My host"Here we are using the host add command to add a new host. The command takes a number of arguments, which are positional. The arguments in this case is a name and an ip address, followed by a contact and some optional arguments. The optional arguments are specified with a flag, followed by the value. The optional arguments can be specified in any order, but the positional arguments must be specified in the order they are defined in the command.
mreg-cli support output filtering via the operators | and |!. The | operator is used to filter the output to only show the lines matching the text specified after the operator. Using |! will show the lines not matching the text specified after the operator. The filter text is a standard python regular expression. Some examples:
mreg> host info one.example.com
Name: one.example.com
Contact: [email protected]
A_Records IP MAC
192.168.1.2 aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff
TTL: (Default)
TXT: v=spf1 -all
mreg> host info one.example.com | example
Name: one.example.com
Contact: [email protected]
mreg> host info one.example.com | me.*com
Contact: [email protected]
mreg> host info one.example.com |! me.*com
Name: one.example.com
A_Records IP MAC
192.168.1.2 aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff
TTL: (Default)
TXT: v=spf1 -allA number of commands take a -force flag. This flag is typically required when the operation will fail internal validation. However, please note that -force is emphatically not a "I know what I'm doing" flag. It is a "I know what I'm doing and I'm willing to take responsibility for the consequences" flag. If you're not sure what you're doing, don't use -force.
As an example, you may add a host to a network unknown to mreg, or a frozen network. You may want to assiciate a mac address to a host or an IP that already has a mac address associated with it. All of these examples will cause a validation failure, but you may bypass this failure by using -force. This is fine if you for example are certain the new mac address is supposed to replace the old one, but if you mistakenly associate a mac address to the wrong host, you may cause the host to be unreachable on the network. -force exists to alert you that you are doing something that may have unintended consequences, and you should be sure you know what you are doing before using it.
host add <name> <ip/net> <contact> [-hinfo <hinfo>] [-comment <comment>]
Add a new host with the given name, ip or subnet and contact. hinfo and comment
are optional.
!!!note Force is required when adding a host with an ip in a subnet not controlled by MREG or in a frozen subnet.
host remove <name|ip>
Remove host. If <name> is an alias the cname host is removed.
host info <name|ip>

The API doesn't differentiate between ipv4 and ipv6, so A/AAAA are only different on the client side.
Require force if the host already has A/AAAA record(s), or if the ip is in a subnet not controlled by MREG.
