Syntax
Connection
In order to execute remote commands it is first required to provide connection parameters to the XpoLog instance:
Connection Parameters
Key | Description | Values |
|
xpologURL | The URL to the XpoLog instance | URL | Mandatory |
user | Authentication user name | Text | Optional (Mandatory if security is enabled) |
password | Authentication password | Text | Optional (Mandatory if security is enabled) |
Example for base command to connect to a remote XpoLog:
java -cp xpologClient.jar com.xpolog.sdk.client.XpoLogSDKClient -xpologURL http://<xpolog-machine>:<xpolog-port>/logeye -user USER_NAME -password PASSWORD
When using scripts, it is recommended to set the above as parameters, as they should be used on any command which is being executed:
Windows:
set JAVA_RUN=java -cp xpologClient.jar com.xpolog.sdk.client.XpoLogSDKClient
set XPOLOG_CONN=-xpologURL http://<xpolog-machine>:<xpolog-port>/logeye -user USER_NAME -password PASSWORD
Linux:
JAVA_RUN=”java -cp xpologClient.jar com.xpolog.sdk.client.XpoLogSDKClient”
XPOLOG_CONN=”-xpologURL http://<xpolog-machine>:<xpolog-port>/logeye -user USER_NAME -password PASSWORD”
Commands
After a connection is established the following command may be executed against the connected XpoLog instance:
