The Python Foreman gets the methods and it’s definitions from a module named definitions. This module contains a dictionary that can be manually edited, but in case that you are just lazy (like me :) ) you can let the client generate it for you. Whe you import the client module if that file does not exist, it downloads it from the web.
CAUTION: it relies on the web structure so it may break anytime.
Let’s see it in action, if we have this on our directory:
client.py
|
\-- client.py
And we import the module foreman.client, we will end up with this:
client.py
|
|-- client.py
\-- definitions.py
Notice: it will not overwrite it if it does find the module, so to update the file you must rename it and import the module.
The function that generates the file is foreman.client.generate_defs_file.
