What are GLPI Agent Utils?

GLPI-Agent-Utils aims to be a toolkit to complement GLPI Agent. It's a set of scripts designed to improve how you use the GLPI Agent for managing IT assets. Currently, these are the scripts:

What is the GLPI Agent?

What do GLPI Agent Utils include?

glpi-agent-portable-inventory.sh

This script lets you start a local inventory process without installing any agents.

It relies on the GLPI Agent AppImage version and the glpi-agent-portable.sh generator script

Currently, it runs and saves a local inventory to /tmp

Supported OS

glpi-agent-portable-inventory.sh works with any operating system supporting Flatpak and the GLPI Agent.

It has been tested on:

  • Ubuntu

How to use it

To use GLPI-Agent-Utils, all you need to do is:

  1. Download it
  2. Run it as sudo
  3. This will create an inventory in the /tmp folder.

Alternatively, you can run this one-liner:

curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ticgal/glpiagentutils/master/glpi-agent-portable-inventory.sh | sudo bash

glpi-agent-wrapper.sh

A quick GLPI Agent updater script It relies on the glpi-agent-linux-installer.pl to perform the update.

Supported OS

glpi-agent-wrapper.sh works with any operating system supported by the official glpi-agent-linux-installer.pl

It has been tested on:

  • Ubuntu However, it should work on any glpi-agent-linux-installer.pl supported OS

How to use it

To use GLPI-Agent-Utils, all you need to do is:

  1. Download it
  2. Make it executable (chmod +x)
  3. Run it as sudo

There are three parameters:

  1. --install
  2. --update
  3. --help

--install

It works as a wrapper to the plugin, making the installation pass the parameters to the script. At least a --server or --local is needed to install and generate an inventory. All the installations are silent by default. If you want them lengthy, use the official script.

Alternatively, you can run this one-liner:

curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ticgal/glpiagentutils/master/glpi-agent-wrapper.sh | sudo bash /dev/stdin --install --server="https://yourserver.tld/" [add any other parameters needed]

--update

This is a helpful parameter since the official script won't update the agent, preserving the parameters nor the installed modules.

Running the agent with the `--update´ parameter will:

  • Check for the last version of the agent
  • Download it
  • Save your agent settings
  • Save your installed agent modules
  • Install the new agent with the previously installed modules
  • Retrieve previous settings
  • Run the agent

Another convenient one-liner:

curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ticgal/glpiagentutils/master/glpi-agent-wrapper.sh | sudo bash /dev/stdin --update

--help

Self-explanatory :)

glpi-agent-autoupdater.sh

A deployable script to automate the creation of a service to update glpi-agent at computer startup It relies on the glpi-agent-wrapper.sh to perform the update.

It has been tested on:

  • Ubuntu
