Hi splunkers,
I Create a Splunk custom commands which take information in another website, with the splunk sdk 'splunklib.searchcommands'. I have used the generatingCommand class, and my python script is like :
| getinfo url=<url> earliest=<timestamp> latest=<timestamp
the custom command is working, but i would tike to take the earliest time and last time from the timepicker ,when splunk user want to use it. my custom command will be then:
|getinfo url =<url>
and i will use the timepicker information in my 'earliest' and 'latest' option.
So, i can we get these earliest and latest time , from the UI timepicker to my python script, using the generatingCommand class ?
I hava alreay used this code below but it doen't work:
searchresults = GeneratingCommand.metadata
spl_earliest_time = int(searchresults.searchinfo.earliest_time)
spl_latest_time = int(searchresults.searchinfo.latest_time)
Also, if the time is like "-7d@d", how to change it to UTC timestamp
can someone help?
thanks in advance,
From what I can tell, these look like the right attributes. They show up with a float so you may have to convert them depending on what you're using it for.
earliest = self.search_results_info.api_et
latest = self.search_results_info.api_lt
I'd like to know how to create an Option() that uses the same validator as what search uses. LMK if you find that.
