The uuid.NodeID function returns the node's (first) nic hardware address.
Using this makes ServiceContent.InstanceUuid unique, yet stable.

This change adds a common stub for the non-linux envs using buildtags.

This change fixes the recentTasks errors in the task historyCollector.
TaskHistoryCollector does not have a recentTask property,
so this method always fails.
Update to latestPage to fix this bug.

PlaceVmsXCluster request has two optional bool fields as to whether host
and/or datastore selection is required as a part of the placement response.

Update simulator PlaceVmsXCluster response to include the ConfigSpec
only when the datastore selection is required to match real VC behavior.

This patch updates the generated types to vSphere 8.0 GA.

This patch fixes a bug where "govc about.cert" was not respecting
the -k flag (or env var) that disabled TLS verification.

This patch updates the cert/key pairs vC Sim uses for testing to
be RSA 2048 in accordance with Apple's new requirements on macOS.

This patch updates the GoVmomi SOAP client to use DialTLSContext
instead of DialTLS, as the latter has been deprecated for multiple,
major Go versions.

This patch also updates how the SOAP client handles TLS validation
with respect to thumbprints. Go 1.18+ adopted the host's certificate
verification framework, so it is necessary to alter a few things to
continue to support thumbprint verification.

This patch updates the instances of $mktemp in the govc/test/*.bats
files to support the macOS variant.

This patch fixes a few bugs related to the Namespaces API. There
was an NPE occurring due to a pointer variable being used prior to
being assigned. The "govc namespace.logs.download" command also
just failed to work due to the VAPI client assuming the response
will always be JSON and not possibly, binary data as one sends when
one receives a tar file. Finally, the namespace.bats file used to
use the cluster name "Workload-Cluster", but due to a hack in the
simulated namespaces API, it only recognizes clusters that begin
with "WCP".

This patch vendors the sources from Go 1.17.13's encoding/json
package in the package vim25/json.

This patch introduces support for discriminators to the "encoding/json" package.
A discriminator is a field in a JSON object that indicates the object's type.
For example:

        {
            "breed": "Lab"
        }

The above JSON does not indicate the Go type into which the object should be
decoded. However, it is possible to store that Go type information along with
the JSON:

        {
            "_typeName": "Dog",
            "breed": "Lab"
        }

The "_typeName" field teaches the JSON decoder to unmarshal the object into the
Go type named "Dog".

This patch introduces functions for the json.Encoder and json.Decoder that may
be used to active support for discriminators.

This patch adds Go's LICENSE file to the vendored JSON package.

This patch adds a README to the vendored JSON package describing
its purpose and how to show the diff between the original sources
and the patch applied to the vendored copy.

This patch excludes the vendored vim25/json package from the
GitHub action that checks code style for Go sources.

This patch updates the type generation code to support adding
JSON tags to generated type field data.

BREAKING:

Updating the `vim25/types` with camelCased, JSON tags affects
the output of the `govc` command when using the `-json` flag
to emit results as JSON. Field names that used to be PascalCased
will now be camelCased. Queries for tools that parse JSON, such
as `jq`, will need to be updated to use the new camelCased fields.

This patch adds support to GoVmomi for marshaling/unmarshaling
the vim25/types (and other VMODL1 types) to/from JSON using:

* a customized version of the Golang encoding/json package that
  relies upon...
* a new discriminator field added to every every complex object
  marshaled to JSON, the "_typeName" field. this field's value
  must match the value of the type's registered type name from
  the type registry

This patch prepares the repository for moving to the "main" branch.
The following steps were taken to identify and change valid occurrences
of "master" to "main":

1. Replace obvious patterns:

    grep -rIl 'govmomi/[^/]\{1,\}/master' * | xargs -n1 -I% \
      sed -i.m2m -e 's~govmomi/\(.*\)/master~govmomi/\1/main~g' % && \
      find . -name '*.m2m' -type f -delete

2. Replace instances in `RELEASE.md`:

    sed -i.m2m -e 's~master~main~g' RELEASE.md && rm -f RELEASE.md.m2m

3. Replace instances in `CONTRIBUTING.md`:

    sed -i.m2m -e 's~vmware/master~main~g' CONTRIBUTING.md && \
      rm -f CONTRIBUTING.md.m2m

4. Replace instances in `.goreleaser.yml`:

    sed -i.m2m -e 's~govmomi/\(.*\)/master~govmomi/\1/main~g' \
      .goreleaser.yml && rm -f .goreleaser.yml.m2m

5. Replace instances in GitHub workflows:

    grep -rIl "'main', 'master'" .github/* | xargs -n1 -I% \
      sed -i.m2m -e "s~'main', 'master'~'main'~g" % && \
      find .github -name '*.m2m' -type f -delete

    grep -rIl '"main", "master"' .github/* | xargs -n1 -I% \
      sed -i.m2m -e 's~"main", "master"~"main"~g' % && \
      find .github -name '*.m2m' -type f -delete

    sed -i.m2m -e 's~master~main~g' \
      .github/workflows/codeql-analysis.yml && \
      rm -f .github/workflows/codeql-analysis.yml.m2m

    sed -i.m2m -e 's~master branch~main branch~g' \
      -e 's~refs/heads/master~refs/heads/main~g' \
      -e 's~ref: "master"~ref: "main"~g' \
      .github/workflows/govmomi-release.yaml && \
      rm -f .github/workflows/govmomi-release.yaml.m2m

    grep -rIl 'govmomi/[^/]\{1,\}/master' .github/* | xargs -n1 -I% \
      sed -i.m2m -e 's~govmomi/\(.*\)/master~govmomi/\1/main~g' % && \
      find .github -name '*.m2m' -type f -delete

6. Replace the project's default version:

    sed -i.m2m 's~master~main~g' ./internal/version/version.go && \
      rm -f ./internal/version/version.go.m2m

7. Searched for all other instances of the word `master` and manually
   verified they do not refer to this repository:

    find . -type f -not -path './.git/*' -exec grep -IH master \{\} \;

   For example:

    $ find . -type f -not -path './.git/*' -exec grep -IH master \{\} \;

Closes: vmware#3023

This patch removes the JSON tag for properties named "This" of
type "ManagedObjectReference" as VMware's SOAP over JSON project
does not use this.

This patch also ensures any of the "ArrayOf" types use the type
discriminator name "_value" for the name of the type's single
field which is a slice.

This patch enhances govc import.ova command to validate the checksum
of an uploaded file (e.g. .vmdk file in .ova) - as computed by the
remote server with the checksum listed in the ova manifest (.mf file
in .ova). govc import.ova takes a new optional flag to indicate
strict checksum validation.
(This govc enhancement needed a small tweak in nfc/lease.go code
to actually return manifest data in GetManifest() API.)

This patch also modifies simulator to compute checksum of uploaded
file and return that metadata through HttpNfcLeaseGetManifest() call.

govc ova import test now has a new sub-test to test for ova with
valid checksum and ova with invalid checksum.

Closes: vmware#1978

- Commit 1991de5 recently changed the json tag for ArrayOf types

- Fix 'vcsim run container' test when using MacOS / Docker desktop

- Change vcsim/main.go to open the fifo after its running

This is needed to support the VirtualMachine.WaitForNetIP helper against vcsim

… of vCenter

This commit includes:
- Change library/item description field from string to a string pointer.
This can help distinguish if the item description is unset or set to an empty string when updating the library item.
- govc now supports setting library/item description to empty.

BREAKING: change string to *string for Item.Description and Library.Description in package library

Testing done:
- Test against a VC testbed
Sending a UpdateLibraryItem request with this change, and set the new description to "".
The original item description was "virtualmachinepublishrequest.vmware.com: 6b0d06ad-8e18-4881-a806-2a7c8a7e1b4b",
after this UpdateLibraryItem request succeeded, the item description was set to "".
While before this change, it would be a no-op for the description.
- Test using govc
  - Update Library

Datacenter's network folder may contain items with the same name.
For clusters that have one such instance of a given network name, the cluster inventory path will be unique.

Rather than limit by ID search to find.Network, move the logic to NetworkList to support both methods.

Add finder_test (meant to include with PR vmware#2626)

With goimports also upgraded, several comment whitespace related changes have been made.

Updated scripts/license.sh to only change the year range on files modified in the current branch.

Closes vmware#3001

The ssoadmin endpoint is now used for authentication for both SOAP and REST endpoints.
Previous behavior is retained:
- By default, any non-empty username + password is authenticated
- If vcsim '-username' and '-password' flags are given, only those credentials can be used for authentication

Additional users can be added via the ssoadmin APIs or using govc for example:

  % govc sso.user.create -p password govc

Closes vmware#2852

This patch manually introduces the ServerGuid field to
the generated types.ManagedObjectReference type. This
field is used internally at VMware and not part of the
public WSDL, but given internal projects make use of this
field, it is helpful for GoVmomi to know about it so it
can be part of serialization/deserialization for both
XML and JSON.

golang/go#51805

fixed by upgrading to bats-core

The test uses govc object.collect to wait for 1 update.
The following rename command may happen before the background process is parked in WaitForUpdates,
leaving object.collect to hang.

Closes vmware#3053

Closes: vmware#3062

This change uses the JSON encoding package from github.com/akutz/gdj to
implement a JSON transport for API calls to vCenter.

The main parts of the change include:

1. Clobber json encoding package with github.com/akutz/gdj
2. Add mapping for VMOMI primitive names to Go types
3. Add SOAP Client support for JSON transport with a property
4. Implement a JSON transport
5. Update version of the API to a valid 8.0.0.1 value
6. go.mod includes github.com/stretchr/testify to test json equality

Closes: vmware#3062

`export GOVC_VI_JSON=TRUE` to switch XML communication to JSON.

This is experimental attempt to get json working in govc. It requires a
vCenter 8.0.1.0.

There are no bat tests yet as vcsim does not yet know how to talk json.

Testing done: Run `datacenter.info` and `folder.info` against a vCenter
server. Observed the network traffic with `-trace` - it is JSON and the
communication works.

This patch updates the behavior of the JSON codec
package so that if the decode operation cannot
convert a value into the destination type, the error
is no longer ignored silently, but returned so the
caller can handle it.

This patch also adds tests to validate these cases.
