iControlREST: Ruby: To Output a List of Virtual Servers and their Associated Pools and Pool Members.

Problem this snippet solves:

This script enumerates virtual servers and their associated pools and pool members and their status, each virtual server on a line of its own in the ";' delimited format. Essentially, the code shows a way to parse the 'ltm/virtual' object and get the information required. It had a specific need to address when it was written, and it can be modified to suit other similar requirements.

How to use this snippet:

This code has been tested with Ruby 2.3.1p112.

Code :

#!/usr/local/bin/ruby -w
    #
    # This script enumerates virtual servers and their associated pools and 
    # pool members and their status, each virtual server on a line of its own 
    # in the ";' delimited format.

    require 'rest-client'
    require 'json'

    # define program-wide variables
    BIGIP_ADDRESS = 'mgmt_IP_addr'
    BIGIP_USER = 'admin'
    BIGIP_PASS = 'admin'
    SLEEP_TIME = 20

    bigip = RestClient::Resource.new(
           "https://#{BIGIP_ADDRESS}/mgmt/tm/", 
           :user => BIGIP_USER, 
           :password => BIGIP_PASS, 
           :headers => { :content_type => 'application/json' },
           :verify_ssl => false
    )

    # Get virtual servers:

    vservers = bigip['ltm/virtual'].get
    vservers_obj = JSON.parse(vservers)

    # Get pools:

    pools = bigip['ltm/pool?expandSubcollections=true'].get
    pools_obj = JSON.parse(pools)

    # Output header:
