Prior to this change this template will not build with types
other than strings.

Add an example that tests this.

Phosphor Inventory Manager (PIM) is an implementation of the xyz.openbmc_project.Inventory.Manager DBus interface, and supporting tools. PIM uses a combination of build-time YAML files and run-time calls to the Notify method of the Manager interface to provide a generalized inventory state management solution.

YAML

PIM includes a YAML parser (pimgen.py). For PIM to do anything useful, a set of YAML files must be provided externally that tell it what to do. Examples can be found in the examples directory.

The following top level YAML tags are supported:

  • description - An optional description of the file.
  • events - One or more events that PIM should monitor.

events

Supported event tags are:

  • name - A globally unique event name.
  • description - An optional description of the event.
  • type - The event type. Supported types are: match.
  • actions - The responses to the event.

Subsequent tags are defined by the event type.

match

Supported match tags are:

  • signatures - A DBus match specification.
  • filters - Filters to apply when a match occurs.

filters

Supported filter tags are:

  • name - The filter to use.

Subsequent tags are defined by the filter type.

The available filters provided by PIM are:

  • propertyChangedTo - Only match events when the specified property has the specified value.

propertyChangedTo

Supported arguments for the propertyChangedTo filter are:

  • interface - The interface hosting the property to be checked.
  • property - The property to check.
  • value - The value to check.

actions

Supported action tags are:

  • name - The action to perform.

Subsequent tags are defined by the action type.

The available actions provided by PIM are:

  • destroyObject - Destroy the specified DBus object.
  • setProperty - Set the specified property on the specified DBus object.

destroyObject

Supported arguments for the destroyObject action are:

  • paths - The paths of the objects to remove from DBus.

setProperty

Supported arguments for the setProperty action are:

  • interface - The interface hosting the property to be set.
  • property - The property to set.
  • path - The object hosting the property to be set.
  • value - The value to set.

Building

After running pimgen.py, build PIM using the following steps:

    ./bootstrap.sh
    ./configure ${CONFIGURE_FLAGS}
    make

To clean the repository run:

 ./bootstrap.sh clean
