(Updated Oct. 23, 2013, 9:38 p.m.) Review request for cloudstack, Marcus Sorensen and Prasanna Santhanam. Changes ------- Small bug fixed. Repository: cloudstack-git Description ------- I have a requirement for some work I am doing to "fail early". The existing marvin cloudstackAPI classes give me both the "legal" and "required" elements for each API call as well as the response attributes. However, they do not tell me the types of each value. I've gone ahead and exposed that type information to python and to commands.xml as well. I decided to try and expose things so we're being as descriptive as possible. It's a little deflating how the Request/Response annotations aren't equal (Requests can expose "strings" as "uuid's", allowing me to auto generate regex's for validation). Responses however, simply fall back to the specific java type, (Integer, Long, String, Boolean). I believe cloudmonkey could take advantage of this, by stopping invalid parameters from being sent to Cloudstack in the first place (client side validation is good, right?) I also think the UI could use this as part of their validation routines, if they're using commands.xml as part of their build process.
