Service Orders

The service orders collection and actions are provided for managing Shopping Carts and their related service requests.

/api/service_orders

Available actions on service_orders instances include:

Some important points on Shopping Carts:

• There is one and only one shopping cart for the authenticated user

• A shopping cart is an /api/service_orders resource with a state of cart

• Shopping carts can be referenced by their resource id or preferably via the alphanumeric cart identifier.

• resource id’s need to be used for accessing non-cart service_orders states of wish list and ordered

Items to add to a shopping cart are service_requests that are specified similarly to when services are ordered from a service template.

      "Basic_Host_Name" : "super_vm_a",
      "Basic_Host_Ip" : "192.168.120.101"
    },
    {
      "service_template_href" : "http://localhost:3000/api/service_templates/3",
      "Basic_Host_Name" : "super_vm_b",
      "Basic_Host_Ip" : "192.168.120.102"
    },
    ...
  ]
}

Creating a wish list service_order:

POST /api/service_orders

{
  "state" : "wish",
  "service_requests" : [
    {
      "service_template_href" : "http://localhost:3000/api/service_templates/2",
      "host_name" : "sample_service_order_host_name",
      "host_ip" : "192.168.120.101"
    }
  ]
}

Adding Service Requests

Adding service requests to a shopping cart can be done by either of the create methods shown above which will all add the service requests to the existing shopping cart:

POST /api/service_orders

or specifically to the shopping cart or any wish list service_orders via its id instead of cart as follows:

POST /api/service_orders/cart/service_requests

POST /api/service_orders/:id/service_requests

{
  "action" : "add",
  "resources" : [
    {
      "service_template_href" : "http://localhost:3000/api/service_templates/3",
      "Basic_Host_Name" : "sample_service_order_host_name_2",
      "Basic_Host_Ip" : "192.168.120.102"
    },
    {
      "service_template_href" : "http://localhost:3000/api/service_templates/3",
      "Basic_Host_Name" : "sample_service_order_host_name_3",
      "Basic_Host_Bad_Ip" : "192.168.120.103"
    },
    ...
  ]
}

Note: * POST /api/service_orders is atomic, requests are validated for all requests before adding them. * POST /api/service_orders/cart/service_requests will add the requests one by one, the action responses have the success field for each requests reflecting the success or failure of each request.
