I have a portainer on a remote server with containers inside. With following code I can list stacks and the stack details of the containers without problem, when the control of the stacks are “total” and the type is “compose”. But for stacks that are built outside of Portainer (control=limited, type=swarm), I get them not listed. I am looking for a code that can list also these.
My current code:
public static async Task Export_Portainer_Main()
{
string baseUrl = "myurl"; //
string username = "myuser";
string password = "mypassword";
string exportPath = @"C:\temp\Portainer\Export"; //
string stacksFilePath = @"C:\temp\Portainer\Export\stacks.txt"; //
try
{
// Authenticate and get token
string token = await Authenticate(baseUrl, username, password);
// List endpoints and stacks
await ListEndpointsAndStacks(baseUrl, token, stacksFilePath);
// Export all stacks
await ExportAllStacks(baseUrl, token, exportPath);
Console.WriteLine("All stacks exported successfully.");
Console.ReadKey();
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
Console.WriteLine($"An error occurred: {ex.Message}");
Console.ReadKey();
}
}
private static async Task<string> Authenticate(string baseUrl, string username, string password)
{
using (var client = new HttpClient())
{
var authData = new { Username = username, Password = password };
var content = new StringContent(Newtonsoft.Json.JsonConvert.SerializeObject(authData));
content.Headers.ContentType = new MediaTypeHeaderValue("application/json");
var response = await client.PostAsync($"{baseUrl}/api/auth", content);
response.EnsureSuccessStatusCode();
var responseData = await response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync();
return JObject.Parse(responseData)["jwt"].ToString(); // Extract JWT token
}
}
private static async Task ListEndpointsAndStacks(string baseUrl, string token, string filePath)
{
using (var client = new HttpClient())
{
client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Authorization = new AuthenticationHeaderValue("Bearer", token);
var sb = new StringBuilder();
// Fetch all endpoints
var endpointsResponse = await client.GetAsync($"{baseUrl}/api/endpoints");
endpointsResponse.EnsureSuccessStatusCode();
var endpoints = JArray.Parse(await endpointsResponse.Content.ReadAsStringAsync());
// Fetch all stacks globally
var stacksResponse = await client.GetAsync($"{baseUrl}/api/stacks");
stacksResponse.EnsureSuccessStatusCode();
var stacks = JArray.Parse(await stacksResponse.Content.ReadAsStringAsync());
sb.AppendLine("Endpoints and Stacks:");
sb.AppendLine("=====================");
foreach (var endpoint in endpoints)
{
string endpointId = endpoint["Id"].ToString();
string endpointName = endpoint["Name"].ToString();
sb.AppendLine($"Endpoint: {endpointName} (ID: {endpointId})");
// Filter stacks for this endpoint
var stacksForEndpoint = stacks.Where(stack => stack["EndpointId"].ToString() == endpointId);
