Struct EntityLink 

pub struct EntityLink<B: Bmc, T: EntityTypeRef> { /* private fields */ }

Lightweight owned handle to a Redfish entity.

Holds a cloned BMC client and a NavProperty<T> without eagerly fetching the entity. Use fetch to retrieve the data on demand.

Operations like delete are available when the schema type T implements the corresponding core trait.

Implementations

impl<B: Bmc, T: EntityTypeRef> EntityLink<B, T>

pub fn odata_id(&self) -> &ODataId

OData identifier of this entity.

Always available without network I/O.

pub const fn nav(&self) -> &NavProperty<T>

Access the underlying navigation property.

impl<B, T> EntityLink<B, T>

where B: Bmc, T: EntityTypeRef + for<'de> Deserialize<'de> + Send + Sync + 'static,

pub async fn fetch(&self) -> Result<Arc<T>, Error<B>>

Fetch the entity from the BMC.

If the navigation property is already expanded, returns the cached value without network I/O.

Errors

Returns an error if fetching the entity fails.

pub async fn upgrade<W>(&self) -> Result<W, Error<B>>

where W: FromLink<B, Schema = T>,

Construct a full wrapper from this link.

Fetches the entity and wraps it in a higher-level type that provides richer API access.

Errors

Returns an error if fetching the entity fails.

impl<B, T> EntityLink<B, T>

where B: Bmc, T: Deletable,

pub async fn delete(&self) -> Result<ModificationResponse<T>, Error<B>>

Delete this entity.

Only available when the schema type implements Deletable.

Errors

Returns an error if deleting the entity fails.
