I looked at the documentation and I understood something about defferd and
callbacks. I edited my code but it does nothing...
I'm going to explain the scenario and what I want to do:
- there is an api that provides some methods (connect, start, disconnect).
- all those methods return a deferred object
- I have an object that first tries to connect, then reads a file and calls
the start method many times in a loop cicle of his method.
I want to use the connect and wait until I'm really connected. How can I do
this using the deferred object that the api returns to me?
I want to do the same thing each time I call the start method from the api:
I want to wait the completing of start operation before doing another start
invocation.
so I do:
in the main process:
d = gest.connettiCLI_to_CTRL()
in gest class I have:
def connettiCLI_to_CTRL(self):
d = api.connect(self.ctrl_ip, self.ctrl_port, self.user, self.pwd)
d.addCallback(self.cbConnected)
return d
def cbConnected(self, connectResult):
return self.postConnection()
def postConnection(self):
# I do something but I don't call api's methods here
# then I go to the next step returning the next method
return self.interpretaNewVMCfg(self.vms_cfg)
def interpretaNewVMCfg(self, new_vms_cfg):
for i in candidati:
#start operation in loop
#here I want to control each start operation
d = api.startVM(new_vm, self.lnms[i])
return d
thank you so much
