Overview

The ``Com::Vmware::Vapi::Metadata::Authentication::Source`` class provides methods to manage the sources of authentication metadata information.


 The interface definition language infrastructure provides tools to generate various kinds of metadata in JSON format from the interface definition files and additional properties files. One of the generated files contains authentication information. The generated file can be registered as a source of metadata.  

 The authentication file contains all the data present in the interface definition files. Each authentication file contains data about one component element. When a authentication file is added as a source, each source contributes only one component element's metadata.  

 Authentication metadata can also be discovered from a remote server that supports the authentication metadata  classs  (see   :mod:`com.vmware.vapi.metadata.authentication`  ). Since multiple components can be registered with a single metadata server, when a remote server is registered as a source, that source can contribute more than one component.

Instance Method Details

- (Void) create(source_id, spec)

Creates a new metadata source. Once the server validates the registration information of the metadata source, the authentication metadata is retrieved from the source. This populates elements in all the classs defined in :mod:`com.vmware.vapi.metadata.authentication` package .

Parameters:

Returns:

  • (Void)

Raises:

        'source_id' => source_id,
        'spec' => spec,
    })
end

- (Void) delete(source_id)

Deletes an existing authentication metadata source from the infrastructure.

Parameters:

  • source_id (String)

    Identifier of the metadata source.

Returns:

  • (Void)

Raises:

    })
end

- (String) fingerprint(source_id = nil)

Returns the aggregate fingerprint of metadata from all the metadata sources or from a particular metadata source if ``source_id`` is specified.

Parameters:

  • source_id (String, nil) (defaults to: nil)

    Identifier of the metadata source. If unspecified, the fingerprint of all the metadata sources is returned.

Returns:

  • (String)

    Aggregate fingerprint of all the metadata sources or of a particular metadata source.

end

- (Com::Vmware::Vapi::Metadata::Authentication::Source::Info) get(source_id)

Retrieves information about the metadata source corresponding to ``source_id`` .

end

- (Array<String>) list

Returns the identifiers of the metadata sources currently registered with the infrastructure.

Returns:

  • (Array<String>)

- (Void) reload(source_id = nil)

Reloads the authentication metadata from all the metadata sources or of a particular metadata source if ``source_id`` is specified.

Parameters:

  • source_id (String, nil) (defaults to: nil)

    Identifier of the metadata source. If unspecified, all the metadata sources are reloaded.
