Reload

Reloading the skills might be necessary if you plug e.g. an USB device. It will only show up in the list of available devices if they are probed again.

Example:

curl http://127.0.0.1:8080/api/v3/skills/reload \
   -H 'accept: application/json' \
   -X GET

import (
    "fmt"
    "github.com/datarhei/core-client-go/v16"
)

client, _ := coreclient.New(coreclient.Config{
    Address: "https://127.0.0.1:8080",
})

err := client.SkillsReload()
if err != nil {
    ...
}

skills, err := client.Skills()
fmt.Printf("%+v\n", skills)
