9 years ago Perhaps better way to handle requests like this is to add regexp support in get_host method.

I needed a method to return a list of hosts, very similar to get_host_by_extattrs, but that didn't assume the use of extensible attributes.My immediate use-case was to return a list of hosts which have a name that matches a regular expression.get_host would only return an individual host, so I wanted something to return a list like get_host_by_extattrs, but ...by_extattrs inserted the "*" that made it only usable for extensible attributes.
