vROPS REST API Java Sample

[Phil_K]

Can anyone help me get a clear sample of how to instantiate the client and run a basic get command with Java?

I see from the documentation it's recommended to use something like:

Client client =

        ClientConfig.builder()

                .serverUrl("https://{ip}/suite-api/")

                .basicAuth("username", "password")

                .useJson()

                .build();

System.out.println(client.platformMetadatas().listAdapterTypes());

but how do I build off of this for a get command, say get all adapters? For one, the platformMetadatas class isn't recognized so they don't even provide a good example.

I understand I should just go learn Java and then it will all make sense eventually, but the documentation didn't seem very clear to me.

Hello

To get all adapter instances you could try something like this:

Client client = ClientConfig.builder().serverUrl("https://{ip}/suite-api")

    .basicAuth("user", "pass")

    .userJson()

    .build()

    .newClient();

AdapterInstancesInfoDto adapters = client.adapterInstancesClient().list();

Basically, after you get the client running, you can get different 'subclients' from it like adapterInstancesClient above.

Hope this helps

        Client client = ClientConfig.builder().serverUrl("https://localhost/suite-api")

                .basicAuth(restUser, restPass)

                .build()

                .newClient();

        AdapterInstancesInfoDto adapters = client.adapterInstancesClient().list();

        for (AdapterInstanceInfoDto adapter : adapters.getAdapterInstancesInfoDto()) {

            System.out.println(adapter);

        }

Hello,

The code throws no errors, and I do believe it is correct. There is one minor issue, and maybe you could help? I get an error 404; invoking handler error. I must not have all the appropriate packages listed at the top of my code.

When I figure that out I'm sure this will work. Do you know, will the java command line prompt for the password if I leave it out of the code?
