Juan Hernandez has submitted this change and it was merged. Change subject: Add "is_link" attribute ...................................................................... Add "is_link" attribute This patch adds a new "is_link" attribute to struct and list types. This attribute indicates if the object is used as a link or as a normal object. When an object is used as a link the server will only populate the identifier and "href" attributes. For example, in the specification of the virtual machine type the "cluster" attribute is defined as a link: @Type interface VmBase extends Identified { ... @Link Cluster cluster(); ... } This means that the server won't return the complete entity, but just the identifier and the "href" attributes: <vm ...> ... <cluster id="123" href=".../clusters/123"/> ... </vm> The Ruby SDK will mark these uses of the objects, using the "is_link" flag, so that the users of the SDK can decide, based on the value of this flag, if furhter loading is needed: # Get the VM: vm = ... # Check if the cluster is a link, in which case we need to # load its complete representation explicitly: if vm.cluster.is_link? vm.cluster = clusters_service.get({:id => vm.cluster.id}) end Change-Id: Ifac0d857942e8ca32a2fa5fb24d845a79c4380a7 Signed-off-by: Juan Hernandez <juan.hernandez@redhat.com> --- M generator/src/main/java/org/ovirt/sdk/ruby/ReadersGenerator.java M sdk/lib/ovirt/sdk/v4/types/list.rb M sdk/lib/ovirt/sdk/v4/types/struct.rb M sdk/spec/vm_reader_spec.rb 4 files changed, 93 insertions(+), 9 deletions(-) Approvals: Juan Hernandez: Verified; Looks good to me, approved Jenkins CI: Passed CI tests -- To view, visit https://gerrit.ovirt.org/52350 To unsubscribe, visit https://gerrit.ovirt.org/settings Gerrit-MessageType: merged Gerrit-Change-Id: Ifac0d857942e8ca32a2fa5fb24d845a79c4380a7 Gerrit-PatchSet: 3 Gerrit-Project: ovirt-engine-sdk-ruby Gerrit-Branch: master Gerrit-Owner: Juan Hernandez <juan.hernandez@redhat.com> Gerrit-Reviewer: Jenkins CI Gerrit-Reviewer: Juan Hernandez <juan.hernandez@redhat.com> Gerrit-Reviewer: gerrit-hooks <automation@ovirt.org>
