[POQ] How to specify values for product specification

[mariusz-amartus]

Hi,

Here's the question I received (LSO Sonata SDK R3):

2. How can we specify the values for product specification (e.g. Bandwidth=10M) in POQ?
   In the swagger, it only accept the product specification ID and the JSON schema:
   

According to my understanding:

Bandwidth profile could be specified in the product specification which needs to be included for code generation. For E-Line please see:
https://github.com/MEF-GIT/MEF-LSO-Sonata-SDK/blob/working-draft/payload_descriptions/ProductSpecDescription/MEF_ELineSpec_v3.json

		"ENNIIngressBWProfile":{
         "description":"The ingress bandwidth profile at ENNI",
         "items":{
            "$ref":"#/definitions/BandwidthProfile"
         }
		},
		"UNIIngressBWProfile":{
         "description":"The ingress bandwidth profile at UNI",
         "items":{
            "$ref":"#/definitions/BandwidthProfile"
         }
		},
		"BandwidthProfile":{
         "description":"",
         "type":"object",
         "properties":{
            "cir":{
               "description":"As defined in MEF 26.2 for ENNI & 10.3 for UNI, this value is expressed via Information rate.",
               "$ref":"#/definitions/informationRate"
            },
            "cbs":{
               "description":"As defined in MEF 26.2 for ENNI & 10.3 for UNI, this value is expressed as bytes",
               "type":"integer",

            },
            "eir":{
               "description":"As defined in MEF 26.2 for ENNI & 10.3 for UNI, this value is expressed via Information rate.",
               "$ref":"#/definitions/informationRate"
            },
            "ebs":{
               "description":"As defined in MEF 26.2 for ENNI & 10.3 for UNI, this value is expressed as bytes",
               "type":"integer",
			   "format":"int32"
            },
            "colorMode":{
               "description":"This enumeration indicates whether the Color Identifier of the Service Frame is considered by the Bandwidth Profile Algorithm",
               "type":"string",
			   "enum":[
					"COLOR_AWARE",
					"COLOR_BLIND"
				]
            },
            "couplingFlag":{
               "description":"The Bandwidth Profile parameter that determines whether overflow tokens not used for Service Frames declared Green can be used as Yellow tokens.",
               "type":"boolean"
            }
         }
      }

I have prepared a short blog entry describing the current situation (or rather my opinion on the current situation).
By no means this is the best or the only way to address this.
I hope, though, it might be helpful: https://amartus.com/fast-track-from-sonata-api-definition-to-running-code/
