SoftwareContainer class (Provider API)

The class Software Container represents software which hosts other software. Hosting means that software is deployed to, or runs on the container. An Application Server cluster, a Relational Database System (RDBMS), and a Database are all examples of {{SoftwareContainer}}s.

SoftwareContainer class APIs

The following tables list the basic APIs, operation APIs, and relationship APIs for the SoftwareContainer class.

Basic APIs

$body

Name

method

URI

Description

create

POST

csm/SoftwareContainer

Creates a SoftwareContainer object.

delete

DELETE

csm/SoftwareContainer/guid

Deletes a SoftwareContainer object.

$body

Operation APIs

$body

Name

HTTP
method

URI

Description

compare

POST

csm/SoftwareContainer/compare

Compare the referenceSoftwareContainer to the otherSoftwareConatiner. If isCompatibe is true, then return true iff said containers are compatible. Otherwise, return true iff the containers are incompatible.

decommission

POST

csm/SoftwareContainer/guid/decommission

getQualifiedHostingContainers

POST

csm/SoftwareContainer/guid/getQualifiedHostingContainers

If this SoftwareContainer is supported, then return the subset of candidateHostingContainers that qualify as hosts. Otherwise, return an error that indicates this SoftwareContainer is not supported. The semantics of a "qualifying host" is provider-dependent and may consider any substantive attributes of the software containers (but not attributes such as guid, name, description, externalId, isOnboarded, etc.)

getSupportedEditions

POST

csm/SoftwareContainer/getSupportedEditions

Return all supported container editions, if any.
The result is a set of (name,value) pairs, where:
name = "<provider-uri>:<type>:<subtype>"
value = "<edition>"
Meaning that <edition> is supported for the (<provider-uri>, <type>, <subtype>) tuple.
The * quantifier can be used to denote that an edition is supported to any type or subtype.

getSupportedHardwarePlatforms

POST

csm/SoftwareContainer/getSupportedHardwarePlatforms

Return all supported container hardware platforms, if any.
The result is a set of (name,value) pairs, where:
name = "<provider-uri>:<type>:<subtype>:<edition>"
value = "<hardware-platform>"
Meaning that <edition> is supported for the (<provider-uri>, <type>, <subtype>, <edition>) tuple.
The * quantifier can be used to denote that a software platform is supported on any type, subtype, etc.

getSupportedSoftwarePlatforms

POST

csm/SoftwareContainer/getSupportedSoftwarePlatforms

Return all supported container software platforms, if any.
The result is a set of (name,value) pairs, where:
name = "<provider-uri>:<type>:<subtype>:<edition>:<hardware-platform>"
value = "<software-platform>"
Meaning that <edition> is supported for the (<provider-uri>, <type>, <subtype>, <edition>, <hardware-platform>) tuple.
The * quantifier can be used to denote that a software platform is supported on any type, subtype, etc.

getSupportedSubtypes

POST

csm/SoftwareContainer/getSupportedSubtypes

Return all supported container subtypes, if any.
The result is a set of (name,value) pairs, where:
name = "<provider URI>:<type>"
value = "<subtype>"
Meaning that <subtype> is supported for the provider <<provider URI> and the type <type>.
To denote that a specific <subtype> is supported for any type use the * quantifier.

getSupportedTypes

POST

csm/SoftwareContainer/getSupportedTypes

Return all container types supported by the implementing provider.
The result is a set of (name,value) pairs, where:
name = "<provider-uri>"
value = "<type>"
Meaning that the <type> is supported for the <provider-uri> provider.

getSupportedVersions

POST

csm/SoftwareContainer/getSupportedVersions

Return all supported container versions, if any.
The result is a set of (name,value) pairs, where:
name = "<provider-uri>:<type>:<subtype>:<edition>:<hardware-platform>:<software-platform>"
value = "<software-platform>"
Meaning that <edition> is supported for the (<provider-uri>, <type>, <subtype>, <edition>, <hardware-platform>, <software-platform>) tuple.
The * quantifier can be used to denote that a software platform is supported on any type, subtype, etc.

offboard

POST

csm/SoftwareContainer/offboard

onboard

POST

csm/SoftwareContainer/onboard

start

POST

csm/SoftwareContainer/guid/start

Start the object specified by the <guid> in the URI.

stop

POST

csm/SoftwareContainer/guid/stop

Stop the object specified by the <guid> in the URI.
