@param instance_type [InstanceType] The `instance_type` to add.

@param opts [Hash] Additional options.

@option opts [Hash] :headers ({}) Additional HTTP headers.

@option opts [Hash] :query ({}) Additional URL query parameters.

@option opts [Integer] :timeout (nil) The timeout for this request, in seconds. If no value is explicitly

given then the timeout set globally for the connection will be used.

@option opts [Boolean] :wait (true) If `true` wait for the response.

@return [InstanceType]

# File lib/ovirtsdk4/services.rb, line 13197
def add(instance_type, opts = {})
  internal_add(instance_type, InstanceType, ADD, opts)
end

Locates the `instance_type` service.

@param id [String] The identifier of the `instance_type`.

@return [InstanceTypeService] A reference to the `instance_type` service.

# File lib/ovirtsdk4/services.rb, line 13251
def instance_type_service(id)
  InstanceTypeService.new(self, id)
end

Lists all existing instance types in the system.

The order of the returned list of instance types isn't guaranteed.

@param opts [Hash] Additional options.

@option opts [Boolean] :case_sensitive Indicates if the search performed using the `search` parameter should be performed

taking case into account. The default value is `true`, which means that case is taken
into account. If you want to search ignoring case set it to `false`.

@option opts [String] :follow Indicates which inner links should be followed. The objects referenced by these links will be fetched as part

of the current request. See <<documents/003_common_concepts/follow, here>> for details.

@option opts [Integer] :max Sets the maximum number of instance types to return. If not specified all the instance

types are returned.

@option opts [String] :search A query string used to restrict the returned templates.

@option opts [Hash] :headers ({}) Additional HTTP headers.

@option opts [Hash] :query ({}) Additional URL query parameters.

@option opts [Integer] :timeout (nil) The timeout for this request, in seconds. If no value is explicitly

given then the timeout set globally for the connection will be used.

@option opts [Boolean] :wait (true) If `true` wait for the response.

@return [Array<InstanceType>]

# File lib/ovirtsdk4/services.rb, line 13240
def list(opts = {})
  internal_get(LIST, opts)
end

Locates the service corresponding to the given path.

@param path [String] The path of the service.

@return [Service] A reference to the service.

# File lib/ovirtsdk4/services.rb, line 13262
def service(path)
  if path.nil? || path == ''
    return self
  end
  index = path.index('/')
  if index.nil?
    return instance_type_service(path)
  end
  return instance_type_service(path[0..(index - 1)]).service(path[(index +1)..-1])
end
