Example: Finding available templates

Some configuration object types, for example, Server and other resource types, have templates that you can use when you create an object. If you create a JDBCProvider object using the create command, this object is built with the default template. If you know that you need a particular type of JDBCProvider object, you can use a template for that type.

Use the AdminConfig object listTemplates command to list available templates, for example:

Using Jacl:

$AdminConfig listTemplates JDBCProvider

Using Jython:

AdminConfig.listTemplates('JDBCProvider')

• There is a variation of this command that makes it easier to locate a particular template or set of templates. If you supply a string after the name of a type, you only get back a list of templates display names that contain the supplied string, for example:

  Using Jacl:

  $AdminConfig listTemplates JDBCProvider DB2

  Using Jython:

  AdminConfig.listTemplates('JDBCProvider', 'DB2')

  This command returns a list of templates with display names containing DB2.

• You can use the show command with any template like any other configuration object, to see the attributes of the template object, for example:

  Using Jacl:

  set jdbc [$AdminConfig listTemplates JDBCProvider DB2]
  set jdbc1 [lindex $jdbc 0]
  $AdminConfig show $jdbc1

  Using Jython:

  jdbc = AdminConfig.listTemplates('JDBCProvider', 'DB2')
   # get line separator 
   import  java
   lineSeparator = java.lang.System.getProperty('line.separator')
   arrayJdbc = jdbc.split(lineSeparator)
   jdbc1 = arrayJdbc[0]
   AdminConfig.show(jdbc1)
