Method: Conjur::DSL2::Types::AttributeDefinition#attribute

Defined in:
lib/conjur/dsl2/types/base.rb

#attribute(attr, options = {}) ⇒ Object

This is the primary method used by concrete types to define their attributes.

attr the singularized attribute name.

Options: type a structured type to be constructed by the parser. If not provided, the type may be inferred from the attribute name (e.g. an attribute called :member is the type Member). kind the symbolic name of the type. Inferred from the type, if the type is provided. Otherwise it’s mandatory. singular by default, attributes accept multiple values. This flag restricts the attribute to a single value only.
