With container objects added to the service model, it would be great to have the ability to manipulate objects back in the provider from the service model. This pull request accomplishes that by expose the "connect" method.

@kevensen is this an Euwe only issue? If no, please reference a PR for 'master' branch.

[kevensen]

@simaishi - I'd certainly prefer to. However it looks like the container service model from #12863 is no longer in the master branch.

[kevensen]

@simaishi - I take that back. The container model is still but the container provider modules are gone.

Hey @kevensen - Empty service models were removed upstream now that we dynamically create them as per PR #14465.

If you want to expose additional properties of a model the service model file needs to be recreated and modified. This will need to happen upstream first so I will be closing this PR.

Having said that we do not expose the connect method on any provider directly to automate. I would suggest opening a PR or git issue upstream where we can discuss your use cases and see if there is some other way to accomplish what you are trying to do.

@gmcculloug - Understood. I've opened #14771.
