Instance Method Details

#query(search) ⇒ Object

Query the search field. The search can either be a key or a set of keys separated by “#” signs.

Examples:

query(:os) # => "linux"
query("arch") # => "i686"
query("os#arch") # => "linux_i686"
query("os#arch#distro#release") # => "linux_i686_ubuntu_6.06"

Fields that may be provided by drivers:

• :arch – Hardware architecture, e.g., “i686”

• :os – Operating system, e.g., “linux”

• :distro – Operating system distribution, e.g., “ubuntu”

• :release – Operating system distribution release, e.g., “6.06”

# File 'lib/automateit/platform_manager.rb', line 20

def query(search) dispatch(search) end

#single_vendor? ⇒ Boolean

Is this a single-vendor operating system? E.g., Windows is, while Linux isn’t. This method helps the TagManager determine how to name tags. A single-vendor product uses the “os#release” format (e.g., “windows_xp”), while a multi-vendor product uses a “distro#release” format (“ubuntu_6.06”).

Returns:

• (Boolean)

# File 'lib/automateit/platform_manager.rb', line 27

def single_vendor?() dispatch() end

#tags ⇒ Object

Return an array of tags for this platform.

# File 'lib/automateit/platform_manager.rb', line 30
