RE: Find event classes with transforms

community@zenoss.org — Mon, 15 Mar 2010 16:35:03 GMT

I am looking to inspect hundreds of mapping transforms for specific text. Extending Noel's solution above:

   for ec in dmd.Events.getSubOrganizers():
       if( ec.transform and ( ec.transform.find( 'TEXT-TO-FIND' ) >=0 ) ):
           print ec.getOrganizerName()

This is great for finding forgotten transforms defined on Event Classes, but what about transforms defined in Event Class Mappings? In zendmd, you can inspect a single mapping transform directly at (e.g.):

dmd.Events.Event.Class.Path.instances.mappingName.transform

but I have been playing with zendmd for a while and I am stuck on how to iterate down this far and check ALL mappings for ALL event classes.

I'm probably missing something that is obvious to a Python guru (which I am not) and I am guessing that I am working a problem that has been solved already. Does anyone in the community have a code fragment that can do what I am trying to do?

Thanks,

Persistence pays off, I figured this out:

#
# Print all event class mappings (not event classes) that have transforms with specific text in them:
#
for ec in dmd.Events.getSubEventClasses():
    for mapping in ec.instances():
        if mapping.transform and mapping.transform.find('TEXT-TO-FIND')>=0:
            print mapping.absolute_url_path()
