Overview

Resource is basic building block of Redfish client and serves as a container for the data that is retrieved from the Redfish service.

When we interact with the Redfish service, resource will wrap the data retrieved from the service API and offer us dot-notation accessors for values stored.

Resource will also load any sub-resource on demand when we access it. For example, if we have a root Redfish resource stored in root, accessing root.SessionService will automatically fetch the appropriate resource from the API.

In order to reduce the amount of requests being sent to the service, resource can also utilise caching connector. If we would like to get fresh values from the service, #refresh call will flush the cache and retrieve fresh data from the remote.

Constructor Details

#initialize(connector, oid: nil, raw: nil) ⇒ Resource

Create new resource.

Resource can be created either by passing in OpenData identifier or supplying the content (hash). In the first case, connector will be used to fetch the resource data. In the second case, resource only wraps the passed-in hash and does no fetching.

Parameters:

  • connector (RedfishClient::Connector)

    connector that will be used to fetch the resources

  • oid (String) (defaults to: nil)

    OpenData id of the resource

  • raw (Hash) (defaults to: nil)

    raw content to populate resource with

Raises:

  • (NoResource)

    resource cannot be retrieved from the service

    @raw = raw
  end
end

Dynamic Method Handling

This class handles dynamic methods through the method_missing method

#method_missing(symbol, *_args, &_block) ⇒ Object

Convenience access for resource data.

Calling resource.Value is exactly the same as resource["Value"].

124
# File 'lib/redfish_client/resource.rb', line 122

def method_missing(symbol, *_args, &_block)
  self[symbol.to_s]
end

Instance Attribute Details

#headersHash (readonly)

Headers, returned from the service when resource has been constructed.

Returns:

  • (Hash)

    resource headers

# File 'lib/redfish_client/resource.rb', line 37

def headers
  @headers
end

#rawHash (readonly)

Raw data that has been used to construct resource by either fetching it from the remote API or by being passed-in as a parameter to constructor.

Returns:

  • (Hash)

    resource raw data

end

Instance Method Details

#[](attr) ⇒ Object

Access resource content.

This function offers a way of accessing resource data in the same way that hash exposes its content.

Parameters:

  • attr (String)

    key for accessing data

Returns:

  • associated value or nil if attr is missing

# File 'lib/redfish_client/resource.rb', line 94

def [](attr)
  build_resource(raw[attr])
end

#delete(field: "@odata.id", path: nil, payload: nil) ⇒ RedfishClient::Response

Issue a DELETE requests to the endpoint of the resource.

If the resource has no @odata.id field, NoODataId error will be raised, since deleting non-networked resources makes no sense and probably indicates bug in library consumer.

Returns:

Raises:

  • (NoODataId)

    resource has no OpenData id



224
225
226
# File 'lib/redfish_client/resource.rb', line 224

def delete(field: "@odata.id", path: nil, payload: nil)
  request(:delete, field, path, payload)
end

#dig(*keys) ⇒ Object

Safely access nested resource content.

This function is an equivalent of safe navigation operator that can be used with arbitrary keys.

Calling res.dig("a", "b", "c") is equivalent to res.a&.b&.c and res["a"] && res["a"]["b"] && res["a"]["b"]["c"].

Returns:

  • associated value or nil if any key is missing



107
108
109
# File 'lib/redfish_client/resource.rb', line 107

def dig(*keys)
  keys.reduce(self) { |a, k| a.nil? ? nil : a[k] }
end

#get(field: "@odata.id", path: nil) ⇒ RedfishClient::Response

Issue a GET requests to the selected endpoint.

By default, GET request will be sent to the path, stored in @odata.id field. Source field can be changed by specifying the field parameter when calling this function. Specifying the path argument will bypass the field lookup altogether and issue a GET request directly to the selected path.

If the resource has no lookup field, NoODataId error will be raised, since posting to non-networked resources makes no sense and probably indicates bug in library consumer.

Parameters:

  • field (String, Symbol) (defaults to: "@odata.id")

    path lookup field

  • path (String) (defaults to: nil)

    path to post to

Returns:

Raises:

  • (NoODataId)

    resource has no OpenData id

# File 'lib/redfish_client/resource.rb', line 174

def get(field: "@odata.id", path: nil)
  request(:get, field, path)
end

#key?(name) ⇒ Boolean

Test if resource contains required key.

Parameters:

  • name (String, Symbol)

    key name to test

Returns:

  • (Boolean)

    inclusion test result

# File 'lib/redfish_client/resource.rb', line 115

def key?(name)
  raw.key?(name.to_s)
end

#patch(field: "@odata.id", path: nil, payload: nil) ⇒ RedfishClient::Response

Issue a PATCH requests to the selected endpoint.

Works exactly the same as the #post method, but issued a PATCH request to the server.

Parameters:

  • field (String, Symbol) (defaults to: "@odata.id")

    path lookup field

  • path (String) (defaults to: nil)

    path to patch

  • payload (Hash<String, >) (defaults to: nil)

    data to send

Returns:

Raises:

  • (NoODataId)

    resource has no OpenData id

214
# File 'lib/redfish_client/resource.rb', line 212

def patch(field: "@odata.id", path: nil, payload: nil)
  request(:patch, field, path, payload)
end

#post(field: "@odata.id", path: nil, payload: nil) ⇒ RedfishClient::Response

Issue a POST requests to the selected endpoint.

By default, POST request will be sent to the path, stored in @odata.id field. Source field can be changed by specifying the field parameter when calling this function. Specifying the path argument will bypass the field lookup altogether and POST directly to the requested path.

In order to avoid having to manually serialize data to JSON, this function call takes Hash as a payload and encodes it before sending it to the endpoint.

If the resource has no lookup field, NoODataId error will be raised, since posting to non-networked resources makes no sense and probably indicates bug in library consumer.

Parameters:

  • field (String, Symbol) (defaults to: "@odata.id")

    path lookup field

  • path (String) (defaults to: nil)

    path to post to

  • payload (Hash<String, >) (defaults to: nil)

    data to send

Returns:

Raises:

  • (NoODataId)

    resource has no OpenData id

#refreshObject

Caling this method will ensure that the resource data is in sync with the Redfis API, invalidating any caches as necessary.

  # refreshed.
  @connector.reset(self["@odata.id"])
  initialize_from_service(self["@odata.id"])
end

#request(method, field, path, payload = nil) ⇒ RedfishClient::Response

Issue a requests to the selected endpoint.

By default, request will be sent to the path, stored in @odata.id field. Source field can be changed by specifying the field parameter when calling this function. Specifying the path argument will bypass the field lookup altogether and issue a request directly to the selected path.

If the resource has no lookup field, NoODataId error will be raised, since posting to non-networked resources makes no sense and probably indicates bug in library consumer.

Parameters:

  • method (Symbol)

    HTTP method (:get, :post, :patch or :delete)

  • field (String, Symbol)

    path lookup field

  • path (String)

    path to post to

end

#wait(response, retries: 10, delay: 1) ⇒ RedfishClient::Response

Wait for the potentially async operation to terminate

Note that this can be safely called on response from non-async operations where the function will return immediately and without making any additional requests to the service.

Parameters:

  • response (RedfishClient::Response)

    response

  • retries (Integer) (defaults to: 10)

    number of retries

  • delay (Integer) (defaults to: 1)

    number of seconds between retries

Returns:

Raises:

  • (Timeout)

    if the operation did not terminate in time
