#Policy Managegement API

This implementation contains the following asynchronous methods:

  • getPolicySet (policysetId, successCB, errorCB)
  • save (policyset, successCB, errorCB)

getPolicySets returns through the successCB an object of type policyset which is described below:

###policyset

###policy

##Description

getPolicySet ( policysetId, successCB, errorCB )

####Description This method returns one of the three root policysets (manufacturer, user, application).

####Params

policySetId

The policyset's id. Accepted values are:

  • 0, returns manufacturer policyset
  • 1, returns user policyset
  • 2, returns application policyset
successCB

Success callback. Receives the required policyset object as parameter.

errorCB

Error callback

####Example


webinos.discovery.findServices(new ServiceType('http://webinos.org/core/policymanagement'), 
    {onFound: function (service){ 
        policyeditor =  service;
        policyeditor.bindService({onBind: function (service) {
            policyeditor.getPolicySet(0, function(ps){
                console.log(JSON.stringify(ps.toJSONObject()));
            }, null);
        }});
    }
});

save ( policyset, successCB, errorCB )

####Description This method saves on the filesystem the policyset

####Params
