NAME

Zenoss::Router::Process - A JSON/ExtDirect interface to operations on processes

SYNOPSIS

use Zenoss;
my $api = Zenoss->connect(
    {
        username    => 'zenoss username',
        password    => 'zenoss password',
        url         => 'http://zenossinstance:8080',
    }
);

# Replace SOMEMETHOD with one of the available methods provided by this module
my $response = $api->process_SOMEMETHOD(
    {
        parameter1 => 'value',
        parameter2 => 'value',
    }
);

DESCRIPTION

This module is NOT instantiated directly. To call methods from this module create an instance of Zenoss. This document serves as a resource of available Zenoss API calls available to Zenoss.

METHODS

The following is a list of available methods available for interaction with the Zenoss API. Please take note of the argument requirements, defaults and return content.

$obj->process_getTree()

ARGUMENTS

id (string) - Id of the root node of the tree to be returned

REQUIRED ARGUMENTS

id

target

DEFAULT ARGUMENTS

N/A

RETURNS

Object representing the tree

$obj->process_moveProcess()

Move a process or organizer from one organizer to another.

ARGUMENTS

uid (string) - UID of the process or organizer to move

targetUid (string) - UID of the organizer to move to

REQUIRED ARGUMENTS

uid

targetUid

DEFAULT ARGUMENTS

N/A

RETURNS

uid: (dictionary) The new uid for moved process or organizer

$obj->process_getInfo()

Get the properties of a process.

ARGUMENTS

uid (string) - Unique identifier of a process

keys (list) - List of keys to include in the returned dictionary. If None then all keys will be returned

REQUIRED ARGUMENTS

uid

DEFAULT ARGUMENTS

N/A

RETURNS

data: (dictionary) Object representing a process's properties

$obj->process_setInfo()

ARGUMENTS

uid (string) - Process UID to get instances of

start (integer) - Offset to return the results from; used in pagination

params (dictionary) - Key-value pair of filters for this search.

limit (integer) - Number of items to return; used in pagination

sort (string) - Key on which to sort the return results

dir (string) - Sort order; can be either 'ASC' or 'DESC'

REQUIRED ARGUMENTS

uid

DEFAULT ARGUMENTS

{start => 0, limit => 50, sort => 'name', dir => 'ASC'}

RETURNS

data: ([dictionary]) List of objects representing process instances

total: (integer) Total number of instances

$obj->process_getSequence()

Get the current processes sequence.

ARGUMENTS

NONE

REQUIRED ARGUMENTS

N/A

DEFAULT ARGUMENTS

N/A

RETURNS

data: ([dictionary]) List of objects representing processes in sequence order

$obj->process_setSequence()
