Create method

[semihyonet]

We have to add a create a record option into our CLI. This method will work with the command create. It will check the parameters it needs through the response it gets on our option request to our API ( an example of the response body can be found under).

We get the needed parameters from the following json in "methods"-> "POST"->"fields"->0 . Request the details from the user like this.

Plusclouds > create iaas virtual-machines

name (required) :  <user-input>
hostname ( required ) : <user-input> 
total_cpu  ( required ) : <user-input>
total_ram ( required ) : <user-input>
description : <user-input>
datacenter_node_ref ( required ) : <user-input>
compute_member_ref : <user-input>

extra to do's

• check if the 'POST' method exists in data["methods"] and has a 'fields' field.
• At the first version you only need to get the name and if it's required or not.
• Set it null if pressed entered and field is not required and throw error if it is.
• After the operation is completed send it to our api with the post method of our httpgateway file
