Ruby Library for ViPR

#Vipruby 0.1.4 Ruby Library for ViPR

####Install and usage: gem install vipruby
require 'vipruby'

####Example usage files: -SBUX.rb
-settings.conf

####Create a vipr object: vipr = Vipruby.new([base_url]:[port],[user],[password])

####Create a host object: host = Host.new(type: 'other',name: [name],fqdn: [fqdn],initiator_node: [wwnn],initiators_port: ['WWPN1','WWPN2'],protocol: [fc/iscsi],discoverable: [true/false])

####Add a vCenter Server: vipr.add_vcenter(fqdn_or_ip, name, port, user_name, password) ex. vipr.add_vcenter('vcenter.mycompany.com', 'Company-vCenter', '443', 'CORP\user', 'mypassword')

####Delete a vCenter Server: vipr.delete_vcenter(vcenter_id)

ex1. vcenter_id = vipr.get_all_vcenters['id'][0] 
or
ex2. myvc = vipr.find_vcenter_object("myvc")
ex2. vcenter_id = vcenter_id['resource'][0]['id']

####Add Storage: Will figure out a better way to show each method... YARD?

####Methods that matter: vipr.add_host(hostObject.generate_json)
vipr.add_initiators(hostObject.generate_initiators_json,host_href)
vipr.add_host_and_initators(hostObject)
vipr.host_exists?(hostObject.name)
vipr.find_host_object(hostObject.name) vipr.get_all_hosts
vipr.get_host(host_href)
vipr.get_all_hosts
vipr.deactivate_host(host_href) vipr.add_vcenter(fqdn_or_ip, name, port, user_name, password) vipr.delete_vcenter(vcenter_id)

####Fun facts To get a host href -> vipr.find_host_object(host.name)['resource'][0]['link']['href']

####To Do:

• Breakout vipruby.rb into multiple classes and files. Host, Vcenter, Storage, Filesystems, Snapshots, etc... it's already getting large
• Add more and more and more things
• figure out if adding by JSON or XML is easier for future proof.
• Add documentation via Yard
