How should I create a function definition including all parameters of a connector?

I must create a function definition including all connector parameters, as the device only provides one instance at a time. Is there a way to define such a function, including everything using a wildcard? If not, what should I take into account to define it efficiently?

Hi Gelber,

In case you want to create a function resource, then leave the EntryPoint Pid empty and define all parameters that you need in the function.xml file.

Thanks Emmanuel. I’ve used a script to help me a bit on creating all the parameter entries.

Hi Gelber – are you doing this to be able to use it as a resource in a booking?  Because I thought we supported also the use of elements immediately in bookings to support that.  Or not?

Hi Ben. Yes, we need to use it in a booking where other resources are needed (one in particular supports multiple instances at a time), so I thought better to have all defined as resources. I still need to define the level of orchestration required but all points to be a service type.

I’ll investigate if we can use whole elements as resources (with no function definition) as well as to confirm that is possible to have a mix of resources with elements.
