## Requirements
pyYAHTS is an extension of pyATS, which is required, and only runs on Linux operating systems

## Using pyYAHTS

In any virtual environment with pyATS installed pyYAHTS can be executed several ways

1. Prompted Inputs

```python
(virtualenv)$ pyYAHTS
Hostname: dist-sw01
OS (ios, iosxe, iosxr, nxos): nxos
Username: cisco
Password:
Command: ospf
```

2. Directly supplying options

```python
(virtualenv)$ pyYAHTS --hostname dist-sw01 --os nxos --username cisco --password cisco --command ospf
```

3. Mixing supplied options and prompted responses

```python
(virtualenv)$ pyYAHTS --hostname dist-sw01 --os nxos --username cisco --password cisco
Command: ospf
```

## Creating Output files

If you include the optional --filetype flag you can create JSON and YAML files from the data 

```python
pyYAHTS --hostname dist-sw01 --os nxos --username cisco --password cisco --command ospf --filetype json
pyYAHTS --hostname dist-sw01 --os nxos --username cisco --password cisco --command ospf --filetype yaml
pyYAHTS --hostname dist-sw01 --os nxos --username cisco --password cisco --command ospf --filetype html
pyYAHTS --hostname dist-sw01 --os nxos --username cisco --password cisco --command ospf --filetype datatable
pyYAHTS --hostname dist-sw01 --os nxos --username cisco --password cisco --command ospf --filetype markdown
pyYAHTS --hostname dist-sw01 --os nxos --username cisco --password cisco --command ospf --filetype pdf
pyYAHTS --hostname dist-sw01 --os nxos --username cisco --password cisco --command ospf --filetype csv
```

## E-Mail Network State

If you include the optional E-Mail flags you can send the network state data using GMail 

You will have to enable IMAP permissions on your GMail Account [Enable IMAP in GMail](https://support.google.com/mail/answer/7126229?hl=en#zippy=%2Cstep-check-that-imap-is-turned-on)

You may also have to enable support for [Less Secure Apps](https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/6010255?hl=en)

The three required flags to send an email are:

--from_email - Your GMail Address

--email_password - Your Gmail Password

--to_email - The recipients Email

Additonally if you specify a filetype (--filetype) the output file will be automatically attached to the email
