It’s hard to see the full context of this email thread, but here are two proposals I would
like to comment on:
a) write attribute groups / or writing to attribute groups?
i.e :write-attribute-group(name=mygroup, value={attr1=a, attr2=b})
b) nested attribute syntax
i.e. :write-attributes(attributes=[{name=foo,value=123},{name=bar.baz.zap,value=hello}])
I think these are two different concerns, hence I am going to respond separately:
What’s the intention of proposal a)? Do you want to define new attribute groups this way
or do you want to write values of attributes that belong to a specific group?
I have similar problems with proposal b). What’s the intention behind the nested attribute
syntax? A more convenient way to address complex attributes? Or does this address
attributes that belong to child resources?
