This example uses the steps that are described in the Create an Empty Library Item procedure.

use Com::Vmware::Content::Library;
use Data::GUID;

# 1 - Create an instance of the ItemModel class to specify the item settings.
my $item_model = new
   Com::Vmware::Content::Library::ItemModel();
$item_model->set_name('ESXi ISO image');
$item_model->set_description(
   'ISO image with atest security patches for ESXi 5.5 as of 2/3/2015');
$item_model->set_type('iso');

# 2 - Associate the new item with an existing library.
$item_model->set_library_id($my_library_id);

# 3 - Create the new instance of the Item class, using the specified model.
my $idem_token = Data::GUID->guid_string;
my $item_stub = new
   Com::Vmware::Content::Library::ItemService($my_stub_config);
$my_item_id = $item_stub->create(create_spec => $item_model,
                          client_token => $idem_token);
