Object model reference

Tim Object Model

Please read: REST API Reference for description of all the objects in Tim.

As well as through the API, you can access all Tim models from Ruby code. All the models are namespaced under Tim. e.g.

  Tim::Template.new

Templates

The template object has a one to many mapping with BaseImages. i.e. One Template can have many BaseImages, a BaseImage can have a single template.

The Template model has a single field called xml. The xml stores the TDL for this template.

  template_xml = "<template><name>mock</name><os><name>RHELMock</name><version>1</version><arch>x86_64</arch><install type=\"iso\"><iso>http://mockhost/RHELMock1-x86_64-DVD.iso</iso></install><rootpw>password</rootpw></os><description>Mock Template</description></template>"

  template = Tim::Template.create(:xml => template_xml)

BaseImage

base_image = Tim::BaseImage.new(:name => "BaseImage")
base_image.template = template
base_image.save

Image Versions

image_version = Tim::ImageVersion.new
image_version.base_image = base_image
image_version.save

TargetImages

target_image = Tim::TargetImage.new(:target => "MockSphere")
target_image.image_version = image_version
target_image.save

Provider Image

provider_image1 = Tim::ProviderImage.new(:provider => "MockSphere")
provider_image1.provider_account = provider_account
provider_image1.target_image = target_image
provider_image1.save
