otupy.profiles.ctxd.data.server.Server

class Server(server=None)

Bases: Record

Physical server

A Serveer is a true computing hardware, currently intended for any kind of high-end or low-end computer (namely, it includes laptops and desktops). This might be changed in the future with additional revisions and refinements of the model.. It provides real hardware as network interfaces, virtual CPUs, virtual RAM, and storage. Since this model shares most of the components with any other network host, it will inherit from the Host abstraction and will extend with additional information.

Methods

fromdict	Builds instance from dictionary
todict	Converts to dictionary

__init__(server=None)

classmethod fromdict(dic, e)

Builds instance from dictionary

It is used during deserialization to create an otupy instance from the text message. It takes an Encoder instance that is used to recursively build instances of the inner objects (the Encoder provides standard methods to create instances of base objects like strings, integers, boolean).

Parameters:

• dic – The intermediary dictionary representation from which the object is built.

• e – The Encoder that is being used.

Returns:

An instance of this class initialized from the dictionary values.

todict(e)

Converts to dictionary

It is used to convert this object to an intermediary representation during serialization. It takes an Encoder argument that is used to recursively serialize inner data and structures (the Encoder provides standard methods for converting base types to dictionaries)..

Parameters:

e – The Encoder that is being used.

Returns:

A dictionary compliants to the Language Specification’s serialization rules.
