This document is intended to provide a set of example Redfish client commands for OpenBMC usage. This document uses cURL. This document assumes several ids, such as ManagerId, "bmc", and ComputerSystemId, "system". Assuming an id is not correct and any software written to use the Redfish API should not. From the Redfish Specification, DSP0266, "Clients shall not make assumptions about the URIs for the members of a resource collection."
export bmc=xx.xx.xx.xx
curl -k https://${bmc}/redfish/v1
export bmc=xx.xx.xx.xx
curl --insecure -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST -D headers.txt https://${bmc}/redfish/v1/SessionService/Sessions -d '{"UserName":"root", "Password":"0penBmc"}'
A file, headers.txt, will be created. Find the "X-Auth-Token" in that file. Save it away in an env variable like so:
export bmc_token=<token>
export bmc=xx.xx.xx.xx
export token=`curl -k -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST https://${bmc}/login -d '{"username" : "root", "password" : "0penBmc"}' | grep token | awk '{print $2;}' | tr -d '"'`
curl -k -H "X-Auth-Token: $token" https://${bmc}/redfish/v1/...
Note: Method 2 is used in this document.
