Class HubManager

x.__init__(...) initializes x; see help(type(x)) for signature

Overrides: object.__init__

(inherited documentation)

Parse all the hubs and retrieve the list of remote gateway names.

Note: not sure where is most convenient, here or in gateway class.

@return list of remote gateway names (with hashes), e.g. gateway345ae2c... @rtype list of str

Utility function to parse all hubs for the remote gateways and
create a dictionary of the type:

  dic['remote_gateway_name'] = ['hub1', 'hub2']

where the hub list is a list of actual hub object references.

Return information that a remote gateway has posted on the hub(s).

Parameters:

• remote_gateway_name - the hash name for the remote gateway @type str

  @return remote gateway information @rtype gateway_msgs.RemotGateway or None

Return information that a remote gateway has posted on the hub(s).

@param remote_gateway_name : the hash name for the remote gateway
@type string

@return True, false if the flag is set or not, None if remote
        gateway information cannot found
@rtype Bool

Send an unflip request to the specified gateway through the first common hub that can be found.

Doesn't raise GatewayUnavailableError if nothing got sent as the higher level doesn't need any logic there yet (only called from gateway.shutdown).

Parameters:

• remote_gateway_name - the hash name for the remote gateway @type string
• remote_rule - the remote rule to unflip @type gateway_msgs.RemoteRule

Attempts to make a connection and register the gateway with a hub.

@param ip @param port

@return an integer indicating error (important for the service call) @rtype gateway_msgs.ErrorCodes

@raise

Disengages a hub. Make sure all necessary connections are cleaned up before calling this (Gateway.disengage_hub).
