I created a little function that's far from perfect but works with regular
expressions.
function scanObjectByRegExp($pattern) {
$result = array ();
$objects = scanRealmByText('object');
foreach ($objects as $object) {
if (preg_match('/'.$pattern.'/i', $object['name'])) {
amplifyCell($object);
$result = array_merge ($result, array($object));
}
}
if (count($result))
return $result;
else
return FALSE;
}
Something like this, but better programmed would be nice for the API.

we want to allow a system monitoring solution (nagios) to set a object an
has problems by just calling a webaddress with the name of the server.
Something like http://racktables.org/api.php?name=server01&problem=yes
To archiv it would be better to have one function that only changes this
value, and not all.

Thanks I was somehow to dump to realize how amplifyCell works :(
