__salt__ module imports

[geo dezix]

Get errors like this in my watchtower.py script

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./watchtower.py", line 45, in <module>
    saltmasterservices('CRPdgMUSsaltlab01', 'httpd')
  File "./watchtower.py", line 42, in saltmasterservices
    getStatusAndStart(var)
  File "./watchtower.py", line 19, in getStatusAndStart
    __salt__['event.send']('watchtower/%s/saltmasterservices/fail' % sensor.split('-')[0], data={"sensor": sensor, "service": services })
NameError: global name '__salt__' is not defined

is there a site that tells all the imports needed for __salt__ modules; for example:

 __salt__['service.restart'](services)

and

__salt__['service.status'](services)

and

__salt__['event.send']('watchtower/%s/saltmasterservices/fail' % sensor.split('-')[0], data={"sensor": sensor, "service": services })

If you want to use the salt modules directly, you should use them through the loader interface described here.

Thanks,

Maybe I'm missing something:

#!/usr/bin/env python

import salt.config
import salt.loader

services = 'httpd'

__salt__['test.ping']()

gives same "NameError: name '__salt__' is not defined" errors,

thanks, BTW

If you follow the example in the link, you need to make the __salt__ object.

import salt.config
import salt.loader

__opts__ = salt.config.minion_config('/etc/salt/minion')
__grains__ = salt.loader.grains(__opts__)
__opts__['grains'] = __grains__
__utils__ = salt.loader.utils(__opts__)
__salt__ = salt.loader.minion_mods(__opts__, utils=__utils__)
__salt__['test.ping']()

Thanks, I tested and it worked, Also, this is another way to go:

import salt.client

local = salt.client.LocalClient()
x = local.cmd('*', 'cmd.run', ['whoami'])
