#clear_location ⇒ void Originally defined in module Locatable

This method returns an undefined value.

Clear all location data

#clone(new_name, api: nil) ⇒ APIObject Originally defined in module Creatable

make a clone of this API object, with a new name. The class must be creatable

Parameters:

  • name (String) —

    the name for the new object

  • api (JSS::APIConnection) (defaults to: nil) —

    the API in which to create the object Defaults to the API used to instantiate this object

Returns:

  • (APIObject) —

  @id
end

#disassociate ⇒ void Also known as: unassign

This method returns an undefined value.

Disassociate this peripheral from any computer.

This seems to have no effect in the JSS, the computer/user/location data always shows the most recent.

Returns Does this item have location data?.

Returns:

  • (Boolean) —

    Does this item have location data?

#has_purchasing? ⇒ Boolean Originally defined in module Purchasable

Returns does this item have any purchasing info?.

Returns:

  • (Boolean) —

    does this item have any purchasing info?

#location ⇒ Hash<String> Originally defined in module Locatable

All the location data in a Hash, as it comes from the API.

The reason it isn’t stored this way is to prevent editing of the hash directly.

Returns:

#location_xml ⇒ REXML::Element Originally defined in module Locatable

This method is part of a private API. You should avoid using this method if possible, as it may be removed or be changed in the future.

Return a REXML <location> element to be included in the rest_xml of objects that have a Location subset

Returns:

  • (REXML::Element)

#name=(newname) ⇒ Object

periphs don’t have names

end

#parse_location ⇒ void Originally defined in module Locatable

This method returns an undefined value.

Call this during initialization of objects that have a Location subset and the location attributes will be populated (as primary attributes) from @init_data

#parse_purchasing ⇒ Object Originally defined in module Purchasable

This method is part of a private API. You should avoid using this method if possible, as it may be removed or be changed in the future.

Call this during initialization of objects that have a Purchasing subset and the purchasing attribute will be populated from @init_data

#purchasing ⇒ Hash<String> Originally defined in module Purchasable

All the purchasing data in a Hash, as it comes from the API.

The reason it isn’t stored this way is to prevent editing of the hash directly.

Returns:

#purchasing_xml ⇒ REXML::Element Originally defined in module Purchasable

This method is part of a private API. You should avoid using this method if possible, as it may be removed or be changed in the future.

Returns A <purchasing> element to be included in the rest_xml of objects that mix-in this module.

Returns:

  • (REXML::Element) —

    A <purchasing> element to be included in the rest_xml of objects that mix-in this module.

#set_field(field, value) ⇒ void

This method returns an undefined value.

Set the value of a field. It will be checked to ensure validity.

Parameters:

  • field (String) —

    the field to set
