Devices
#######
Devices are objects that can be identified, and they are the
main entity in a Devicehub. Refer to :ref:`devices:Device` for more
info.
Schema
******
The following schema represents all the device types and their
properties.
.. dhlist::
:module: ereuse_devicehub.resources.device.schemas
API
***
You can retrieve devices using ``GET /devices/``, or a specific
device by ``GET /devices/24``.
You can **filter** devices ``GET /devices/?filter={"type": "Computer"}``,
**sort** them ``GET /devices/?sort={"created": 1}``, and perform
natural search with ``GET /devices/?search=foo bar. Of course
you can combine them in the same query, returning devices that
only pass all conditions.
Results are **paginated**; you get up to 30 devices and up to 30
groups in a page. Select the actual page by ``GET /inventory?page=3``.
By default you get the page number ``1``.
Query
*****
The query consists of 4 optional params:
- **search**: Filters devices by performing a full-text search over their
physical properties, events, and tags. Search is a string.
- **filter**: Filters devices field-by-field. Each field can be
filtered in different ways, see them in
:class:`ereuse_devicehub.resources.devices.Filters`. Filter is
a JSON-encoded object whose keys are the filters. By default
is empty (no filter applied).
- **sort**: Sorts the devices. You can specify multiple sort clauses
as it is a JSON-encoded object whose keys are fields and values
are truthy for *ascending* order, or falsy for *descending* order.
By default it is sorted by ``Device.created`` descending (newest
devices first).
- **page**: A natural number that specifies the page to retrieve.
By default is ``1``; the first page.
Result
******
The result is a JSON object with the following fields:
- **items**: A list of devices.
- **pagination**:
- **page**: The page you requested in the ``page`` param of the query,
or ``1``.
- **perPage**: How many devices are in every page, fixed to ``30``.
- **total**: How many total devices passed the filters.
- **next**: The number of the next page, if any.
- **last**: The number of the last page, if any.
