This repository contains the code samples that are presented by Eltjo van Gulik and Ryan Ververs-Bijkerk for the Citrix Converge presentation: Fight night: Scripting vs Programming
Based on the success of our previous Converge session we will continue the fighting championship. But this fight night, the battle will rise to a whole new level, as it is between scripting vs programming.
This session will discuss the scripting and programming language titans of the automation world, PowerShell, Python, C# and GO. Citrix technology professionals Ryan Ververs-Bijkerk and Eltjo van Gulik demonstrate how these languages can be used to consume the Citrix APIs.
In order to communicate with the Citrix API, authentication is required. Please follow the instruction from the Citrix Cloud API Overview site.
The best practice is to use a vault solution, but for these examples, the variables need to be stored in the environment variables.
| Name | Value |
|---|---|
| Citirx_Client_Id | API access ID |
| Citrix _Client_Secret | APS access secret |
| Citrix_Customer_Id | Customer ID |
No special requirements.
Examples make use of the package request, use the pip install requests command to install the required package.
Compile the example using the go build filename command.
The notifications example requires the google uuid module which can be installed using the following command: go get github.com/google/uuid
Before running ensure to run the following command to bypass the mod requirement: go env -w GO111MODULE=off
Ensure to install the Newtonsoft.Json package using the package manager.
