projectal.linkers
All linkers inherit from BaseLinker
.
Linkers provide the interface to add/update/delete links between entities. Only certain entities can link to certain other entities. When using this library, your tooling should show you which link methods are available to the Entity subclass you are using.
Note that some links require additional data in the link. You must ensure
the destination object has this data before adding or updating the link
(example below). See the API documentation for exact link details.
Missing data will raise a projectal.errors.ProjectalException
with
information about what is missing.
An instance of an entity class that inherits from a linker is able to link to an instance of the target entity class directly.
# Get task and staff
task = projectal.Task.get('1b21e445-f29a...')
staff = projectal.Staff.get('1b21e445-f29a...')
# Task-to-Staff links require a 'resourceLink'
staff['resourceLink'] = {'utilization': 0.6}
# Task inherits from StaffLinker, so staff linking available
task.link_staff(staff)
