I've been having trouble acquiring and changing some of the basic data available from the Nest thermostat.
Using a command line, how can I get or change individual settings or values on my thermostat?
This is a compilation from several users explaining how to retrieve or change some basic information with some of my own experiences added in. Wherever I use <VALUE>, replace that with the applicable information in your setup. If you're using Windows, you'll need something like git-scm.
The following a part of the authentication process. You'll need to have a client already made on Nest's developer page and followed the provided authorization URL to get your auth code. Run this line to get an access token:
curl --data 'code=<AUTH CODE>&client_id=<CLIENT ID>&client_secret=<CLIENT SECRET>&grant_type=authorization_code' https://api.home.nest.com/oauth2/access_token
To fetch some information about the thermostats associated with the authorization code:
curl -v -L https://developer-api.nest.com/devices/thermostats?auth=<AUTH CODE>
To fetch some information about a specific thermostat:
curl -v -L https://developer-api.nest.com/devices/thermostats/<THERMOSTAT ID>?auth=<AUTH CODE>
To fetch the target temperature in F from the specified thermostat. You can replace target_temperature_f with any other value listed under thermostat on Nest's API reference:
curl -v -L https://developer-api.nest.com/devices/thermostats/<THERMOSTAT ID>/target_temperature_f?auth=<AUTH CODE>
To change the target_temperature_f:
curl -v -L -X PUT "https://developer-api.nest.com/devices/thermostats/<THERMOSTAT ID>/target_temperature_f?auth=<AUTH CODE>" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d "65"
To change the specific structure to away. The value here is a string so be sure to include the single quotes:
curl -v -L -X PUT "https://developer-api.nest.com/structures/<STRUCTURE ID>/away?auth=<AUTH_TOKEN>" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '"away"'

I am trying to run an Azure DevOps pipeline from the windows command prompt using curl.
Based on Microsoft documentation ( Runs - Run Pipeline ) I should be able to run a pipeline by posting:
https://dev.azure.com/{organization}/{project}/_apis/pipelines/{pipelineId}/runs?api-version=6.0-preview.1
I am able to GET using the command:
curl -u :<PAT> https://dev.azure.com/{organization}/{project}/_apis/pipelines/{pipelineId}/runs?api-version=6.0-preview.1
However, I can't figure out how to do a POST for DevOps using curl to run the pipeline.
I have tried the following:
curl -s -X POST -L https://dev.azure.com/{organization}/{project}/_apis/pipelines/{pipelineId}/runs?api-version=6.0-preview.1 -H "Accept: application/json" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "Authorization: Basic <PAT>"
But this returns the error
HTTP Error 411. The request must be chunked or have a content length
I managed to solve my problem which consisted of numerous steps:
Log the API call from the DevOps website to get the correct format of the json-body ( See this question ).
Format the json-body with extra double quotation signs.
Use the {project}-id instead of the ascii-name since it included a special character which the command prompt misinterpret.
Hence the complete curl command was:
curl -X POST -u :<PAT> "https://dev.azure.com/{organization}/{project}/_apis/pipelines/{pipelineId}/runs?api-version=6.0-preview.1" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d "{""stagesToSkip"": ""[]"", ""resources"": {""repositories"": {""self"": {""refName"": ""refs/heads/master""}}}}"
I'm trying to explore the curl connect or retrieve the data with query API link but when I run my GET command in curl it runs without any error shown in -vv but the process stop. below the actual statement at the end of the posted process, may I know if this is normal or I need to add an additional arguments or parameters on my command for me to retrieve the data? If yes may I know how to do it?
Connection #1 to host myserver.com left intact
My command
curl -vv -k -X GET -H --user user123:password1 -H "Accept: application/json" https://myapplink/statement/EXE=sample
I implemented keycloak in my node.js project and call following API for add user in keycloak:
{{keycloak_url}}/admin/realms/{{realm}}/users
This API works and I can add user in keycloak but I need userId in response to this API how can I get this, any alternative way for this
Thanks in advance
I believe there is another way to do this which will save you an extra request. If you take a look at the reponse headers when you create a user, you should find a field named "Location". It looks like this:
Location: http://keycloak_address/auth/admin/realms/realm/users/3a11cc77-9871-4f6e-805b-bf17ea79fa3a
In this case the value "3a11cc77-9871-4f6e-805b-bf17ea79fa3a" would be the new user's id.
Update: The /auth path was removed starting with Keycloak 17 Quarkus distribution. So you might need to remove the /auth from the endpoint calls presented on this answer.
You use the Keycloak Admin REST API endpoint GET /{realm}/users with the query parameter username. For instance:
GET "{{keycloak_url}}/auth/admin/realms/{{realm}}/users/?username={{username}}"
NOTE: In some Keycloak version it will return all the users with a username that matches {{username*}}. Therefore, additional filtering of the list might be necessary. For those using bash script I have uploaded to my repo one example on how to do filter currently. From the response you just need to extract the field id.
The approach pointed out first by #Sillas Reis allows to create the user and get its ID in a single call, which is more performant. However, I am not a fan of relying on non documented behavior. Nonetheless, for those using bash and curl that solution could look like the following:
Call the Keycloak Admin REST API with an access token from a user with the proper permissions. For now, I will be using the admin user from the master realm:
curl “https://${KEYCLOAK_HOST}/auth/realms/master/protocol/openid-connect/token” \
-d "client_id=admin-cli" \
-d "username=${ADMIN_NAME}” \
-d "password=${ADMIN_PASSWORD}" \
-d "grant_type=password"
You get a JSON response with the admin's token. Extract the value of property access_token from that response. Let us save it in the variable $ACCESS_TOKEN for later reference.
To create the user in your realm $REALM_NAME and get back its id execute:
URL="https://${KEYCLOAK_HOST}/auth/admin/realms/${REALM_NAME}/users/"
curl --include -X -s POST "${URL}" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $ACCESS_TOKEN" \
-d "$USER_JSON" | grep "Location: ${URL}" | grep -o '[^/]\+$'
the flag --include will make curl include the headers, and the command grep "Location: ${URL}" will extract the location and the command grep -o '[^/]\+$' the user ID from that location.
How can i develop a script which automatically runs and fetches the details from puppetdb ? I am a newbie to puppet .Basically I would like to collect the inventory from puppetdb based on factor values like "web server" ,"app server" etc. I use opensource puppet.
querying puppetdb is as easy as running curl.
For example, if you have a fact named $role and some nodes have the role "web server" you can get an inventory dump of all nodes with that role running:
curl -G -H "Accept: application/json" 'http://localhost:8080/pdb/query/v4/inventory' --data-urlencode 'query=["=",["fact","role"], "web server"]' |jq '.'
Now, maybe you only want to know the hostname of servers and send each inventory to another application, that would be something like this:
#!/bin/bash
# Iterate over nodes if $role 'web server'
curl -s -G -H "Accept: application/json" 'http://localhost:8080/pdb/query/v4/nodes' --data-urlencode 'query=["=",["fact","role"], "web server"]' | jq -r '.[]|[ .certname ]| #tsv' |
while IFS=$'\t' read -r host; do
echo "Do something with $host"
# Save one dump per host
curl -s -G -H "Accept: application/json" 'http://localhost:8080/pdb/query/v4/inventory' --data-urlencode 'query=["=","certname","'${host}'"]' > "node-${host}.inventory.log"
done
This are very basic examples, their api is very powerful and very simple to use, you can query anything (facts, resources, catalogs, inventories) and doing even complex queries like speaking to a MySQL server, check their tutorial here: https://puppet.com/docs/puppetdb/5.1/api/query/tutorial.html .
Gitlab-CE v8.14.3
I'm reading the GitLAB API docs, and am trying to get the list of active users. I'm an admin and created a personal token. I do this
$ curl -XGET "Private-Token: kfjakjfkjkd" https://company.domain.com/api/v3/users?active=true
and keep getting 401 (Unauthorized) error. Like I said, I'm an admin. What gives?
You must specify the header using the -H option as noted in Bertrand Martel's answer. That will retrieve up to 20 users.
Above 20 users, you must get fancier. The JSON output is paginated, and each query is limited to 100 users per page. So to get 300 users, you must get three pages, 100 users at a time:
curl -H "Private-Token: kfjakjfkjkd" "https://company.domain.com/api/v4/users?active=true&per_page=100&page=1" > gitlabusers1.json
curl -H "Private-Token: kfjakjfkjkd" "https://company.domain.com/api/v4/users?active=true&per_page=100&page=2" > gitlabusers2.json
curl -H "Private-Token: kfjakjfkjkd" "https://company.domain.com/api/v4/users?active=true&per_page=100&page=3" > gitlabusers3.json
You need to specify that Private-Token: kfjakjfkjkd is an HTTP header with -H :
curl -H "Private-Token: kfjakjfkjkd" https://company.domain.com/api/v4/users?active=true
