Hi,

A new suggestion:

• event_type: the type of event/notification that comes from the datasource. For example: ‘compute.instance.delete.end’,  ‘volume.detach.start’
• graph_action: used to tell the evaluator what to do with the entity - create, update or delete it.
• datasource_action: the type of action that was performed by the driver: init_snapshot, snapshot or update.

What do you think?
Ifat.

Hi,

I think we have a confusing terminology in Vitrage datasources. 

The following parameters are used in the drivers and transformers: 
• event_type: the type of event/notification that comes from the datasource. For example: ‘compute.instance.delete.end’,  ‘volume.detach.start’
• event_action: used to tell the evaluator what to do with the entity - create, update or delete it.
• action_type: the type of action that was performed by the driver: init_snapshot, snapshot or update.

Personally I find these names very confusing. 
My suggestion is to rename action_type to datasource_mode, or something similar.

Your thoughts?

Thanks,
Ifat.
