Thymus — is a config browser. Thymus does not require a connection to any network device (but it can be used itself over SSH from a remote machine). You just need to save a configuration file, open it anytime, and navigate through it. Thymus mimics to CLI of a selected platform.
Thymus supports:
- Juniper JunOS (and probably other JunOS-like systems, e.g. SR-OS with MD-CLI)
- Cisco IOS/IOS-XE/NX-OS (and probably other IOS-like systems)
- Arista EOS
This is the early alpha version! So some glitches can be appearing.

Use pip to install the project right from its sources (e.g., pip install thymus/ or python -m pip install thymus/).
Thymus operates in two modes:
-
TUI-based. This mode draws the full-scale user interface in your console with mouse support. From the Textual documentation:
On modern terminal software (installed by default on most systems), Textual apps can use 16.7 million colors with mouse support and smooth flicker-free animation. A powerful layout engine and re-usable components makes it possible to build apps that rival the desktop and web experience.
Textual runs on Linux, macOS, Windows and probably any OS where Python also runs.
-
CLI-based. This is a hardcore mode for old men who yell at clouds. At least, it works for old terminals without mouse support.
To run the TUI-mode use the command:
python -m thymus
python -m thymus tuier
The CLI-mode is invoked by:
python -m thymus clier
