Some questions about adding device

Hi everyone, now I am making a zenpack. I have a question that how can I add some simple devices with some codes in my zenpack. I want to make that like the interface like the "Add a simple device " in the page. But I want to only use the method to add simple devices. What's the method or way should I make? I know the code "dmd.DeviceLoader.loadDevice(deviceName='', discoverProto=None, devicePath='')" that can add a device.

But it will run as following:

But I want to submit a task, then it runs commands in the background. How was it?

 

 

Thanks!

    Have a look at my MenuExamples ZenPack - it creates a device.  docs/DOC-12937

     

    Cheers,

    Not that. It is not what I want to have. In fact, my dream is that when I have find a new IP, I can automatically to add the device, not to add it from the page. I have seen your example zenpack. Although it is very useful, it is not really what I think about.

     

    Anything else.

     

    Thank you, jcurry!

    Re: Some questions about adding device

    Go and look again at the __init__.py in the main directory.  An instance of a device called Example1 is created.

    Re: Some questions about adding device

    Do you mean the code as following:

     

    if dc.devices._getOb('ExampleDevice1', None): return

             myInst = dc.createInstance('ExampleDevice1')

             myInst.setPerformanceMonitor('localhost')

     

    Whether the method createInstance is only to create a device instance, can the device be modeled? And if I write the code in the __init__.py in the main directory, can the zenoss automatically add the device when it find a new IP?

     

    Now I am making a zenpack. It needs that If it finds a new IP address, the zenoss can automatically add the device, Not only the device instance but also modeling the device.

     

     

    Cheers,
