Class: Jamf::Group

Inherits:
APIObject show all
Includes:
Creatable, Criteriable, Sitable, Updatable
Defined in:
lib/jamf/api/classic/base_classes/group.rb

Overview

This is the parent class of the smart/static group objects in the JSS namely, ComputerGroup, MobileDeviceGroup, and UserGroup

It provides methods for working with the membership of static groups and, by including Criteriable, the criteria for smart groups.

When changing the criteria of a smart group, use the #criteria attribute, which is a Criteria instance.

Subclasses must define these constants:

  • MEMBER_CLASS: the ruby-jss class to which the group members belong (e.g. Jamf::MobileDevice)

  • ADD_MEMBERS_ELEMENT: the XML element tag for adding members to the group wuth a PUT call to the API, e.g. ‘computer_additions’

  • REMOVE_MEMBERS_ELEMENT: the XML element tag for removing members from the group wuth a PUT call to the API, e.g. ‘computer_deletions’

.change_membership(group, add_members: [], remove_members: [], api: nil, cnx: Jamf.cnx) ⇒ void

This method returns an undefined value.

Immediatly add and/or remove members in a static group without instantiating it first. Uses the <x_additions> and <x_deletions> XML elements available when sending a PUT request to the API.

Parameters:

  • group (String, Integer) —

    The name or id of the group being changed

  • add_members (String, Integer, Array<String, Integer>) (defaults to: []) —

    valid identifier(s) for members to add

  • remove_members (String, Integer, Array<String, Integer>) (defaults to: []) —

    valid identifier(s) for members to remove

  • cnx (Jamf::Connection) (defaults to: Jamf.cnx) —

    The API connetion to use, uses the default connection if not specified

  • retries (Integer) (defaults to: 10) —

    If calculate_members is true, refetching the group to re-read the membership can happen too fast, the JSS won’t know it exists yet and will throw a NoSuchItem error. If that happens, try again this many times with a 1 second pause between attempts.

Raises:
