Description

The index function in the hosts controller could be changed to something like the following:

  def index
    @search = Host.search(params[:search])
    @hosts = @search.paginate :page => params[:page], :include => [:hostgroup, :domain, :operatingsystem, :environment]
    @via    = "fact_values_" 
    @last_reports = Report.maximum(:id, :group => :host_id, :conditions => {:host_id => @hosts})
    respond_to do |format|
        format.html
        format.yml { render :text => @search.map(&:name).to_yaml }
    end
  end

This would output a list of hosts in simple YAML format which can be directly fed to other scripts.

This is similar to what happens in the OutofSync and Error page.

Related to Foreman - Refactor #288: move dashboard controller actions (besides index) to hosts controllerClosedOhad Levy05/29/2010Actions
Actions #1

Updated by Ohad Levy over 13 years ago

I think it makes more sense to handle this in one common controller (e.g. get out all of the hosts actions out of the dashboard controller, then we can unify them all to provide yaml / json output.

Actions #2

Updated by Jochen Schalanda over 13 years ago

The proposed patch adds a responder for YAML output in HostsController#index.

It also changes the JSON output to a simple array of the hosts instead of the nested hash with only one key/value-pair and makes it possible to use the search parameter to narrow down the returned hosts.
