ABSTRACT:
A method and system are provided for a script driven framework that produces and uses a transactional document. The transactional document provides an interface for modifying configuration information associated with a network resource. In one example, a framework for creating the transactional document includes a transformation file for converting between file formats, multiple responders, a responders file, a mapping configuration file, and a service manager. The responders file assigns at least one responder to create a specified portion of the transactional document based on the configuration information. The mapping configuration file maps between the transactional document and a user interface, which enables the configuration information to be modified through the transactional document via the user interface. The service manager shuts down and restarts services in a predefined order so that the network resource will be configured as defined by the modified configuration information.
