### Get information about softwares versions

`ardl` comes witth a tool to get version information from Arista website.

#### Get information about available versions

```bash
ardl info versions --help
Usage: ardl info versions [OPTIONS]

List available versions of Arista packages (eos or CVP) packages

Options:
--format [json|text|fancy] Output format
--package [eos|cvp]
-b, --branch TEXT
--release-type TEXT
--help Show this message and exit.
```

With this CLI, you can specify either a branch or a release type when applicable to filter information:

```bash
# Get F version in branch 4.29 using default fancy mode
ardl info versions --branch 4.29 --release-type F

╭──────────────────────────── Available versions ──────────────────────────────╮
│ │
│ - version: 4.29.2F │
│ - version: 4.29.1F │
│ - version: 4.29.0.2F │
│ - version: 4.29.2F │
│ - version: 4.29.1F │
│ - version: 4.29.0.2F │
│ │
╰──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────╯

# Get M version in branch 4.29 using text output
❯ ardl info versions --branch 4.29 --release-type M --format text
Listing versions
- version: 4.29.10M
- version: 4.29.9.1M
- version: 4.29.9M
- version: 4.29.8M
- version: 4.29.7.1M
...
```

You can also specify JSON as output format:

```bash
ardl info versions --branch 4.29 --release-type F --format json
[
{
"version": "4.29.2F",
"branch": "4.29"
},
{
"version": "4.29.1F",
"branch": "4.29"
},
{
"version": "4.29.0.2F",
"branch": "4.29"
},
{
"version": "4.29.2F",
"branch": "4.29"
},
{
"version": "4.29.1F",
"branch": "4.29"
},
{
"version": "4.29.0.2F",
"branch": "4.29"
}
]
```

##### Get information about latest version available

CLI has option to get latest version available. Like `ardl info versions`, you can filter by `branch` and/or `release-type` when applicable.

```bash
ardl info latest --help
Usage: ardl info latest [OPTIONS]

List available versions of Arista packages (eos or CVP) packages

Options:
--format [json|text] Output format
--package [eos|cvp]
-b, --branch TEXT
--release-type TEXT
--log-level, --log [debug|info|warning|error|critical]
Logging level of the command
--help Show this message and exit.
```

## FAQ

On EVE-NG, you may have to install/upgrade __pyOpenSSL__ in version `23.0.0`:

```bash
# Error when running ardl: AttributeError: module 'lib' has no attribute 'X509_V_FLAG_CB_ISSUER_CHECK'

$ pip install pyopenssl --upgrade
```
