Component names in add_component vs get_component_available

[Fraida Fund]

Hi FABRIC team,

As far as I can tell, in fablib there is one set of component names for add_component, and another set of different component names for get_component_available. (e.g. ‘NIC_Basic’ vs ‘SharedNIC-ConnectX-6’, ‘GPU_RTX6000’ vs ‘GPU-RTX6000’, etc.)

Is this a deliberate choice? or should we expect that at some point in the future, the component names will be standardized?

Is there some documentation where I can find the list of component names, and which functions use which “type” of name?

Thanks!

That is a good observation. The code that gets available resources is a bit underdeveloped right now.  What you are seeing is a discrepancy between the terms used by user-facing FABlib API and the underlying model data structure.  Longer-term, we will try to have the users only see the FABlib API terms.
