list_datasources – Lists defined data sources

Synopsis

Lists data sources defined to the IDMS REST API.

Parameters

host (type: str)

Host name of the IDMS REST API service.

port (type: int)

Port for the IDMS REST API service.

user (type: str)

Mainframe user name, which can be the same as your TSO login ID.

password (type: str)

Mainframe password, which can be the same as your TSO password.

reject_unauthorized (type: bool, default: True)

Reject self-signed certificates.

base_path (type: str)

The base path for your Zowe API Mediation Layer instance. Specify this option to prepend the base path to all resources when making REST requests. Only specify this option if you are using an Zowe API Mediation Layer.

datasource (type: str)

Identifies the IDMS system where the API request will be sent and is defined in the data sources definition file for the IDMS REST API.

datasourcename (type: str)

Specifies a specific datasource to view the definition of.

all (type: bool)

Lists each datasource defined to the IDMS REST API.

cert_file (type: path)

The file path to a certificate file to use for authentication.

Note: The CLI does not support certificate files that require a password. For more information, search Troubleshooting PEM Certificates in Zowe Docs.

cert_key_file (type: path)

The file path to a certificate key file to use for authentication.

response_format_filter (type: list)

Filter (include) fields in the response. Accepts an array of field/property names to include in the output response. You can filter JSON objects properties OR table columns/fields. In addition, you can use this option in conjunction with ‘–response-format-type’ to reduce the output of a command to a single field/property or a list of a single field/property.

response_format_type (type: str)

The command response output format type. Must be one of the following:

table: Formats output data as a table. Use this option when the output data is an array of homogeneous JSON objects. Each property of the object will become a column in the table.

list: Formats output data as a list of strings. Can be used on any data type (JSON objects/arrays) are stringified and a new line is added after each entry in an array.

object: Formats output data as a list of prettified objects (or single object). Can be used in place of “table” to change from tabular output to a list of prettified objects.

string: Formats output data as a string. JSON objects/arrays are stringified.

Choices:

  • table

  • list

  • object

  • string

response_format_header (type: bool)

If “–response-format-type table” is specified, include the column headers in the output.
