ironicclient.common.utils.args_array_to_dict(kwargs, key_to_convert)

Convert the value in a dictionary entry to a dictionary.

From the kwargs dictionary, converts the value of the key_to_convert entry from a list of key-value pairs to a dictionary.

Parameters:

• kwargs – a dictionary

• key_to_convert – the key (in kwargs), whose value is expected to be a list of key=value strings. This value will be converted to a dictionary.

Returns:

kwargs, the (modified) dictionary

ironicclient.common.utils.bool_argument_value(arg_name, bool_str, strict=True, default=False)

Returns the Boolean represented by bool_str.

Returns the Boolean value for the argument named arg_name. The value is represented by the string bool_str. If the string is an invalid Boolean string: if strict is True, a CommandError exception is raised; otherwise the default value is returned.

Parameters:

• arg_name – The name of the argument

• bool_str – The string representing a Boolean value

• strict – Used if the string is invalid. If True, raises an exception. If False, returns the default value.

• default – The default value to return if the string is invalid and not strict

Returns:

the Boolean value represented by bool_str or the default value if bool_str is invalid and strict is False

Raises:

CommandError – if bool_str is an invalid Boolean string
