How do I add a new host to the cluster through API

I tried to use

API.create_host(hadoop_roles.HOSTNAME, hadoop_roles.HOSTNAME, IP)

 But when I tried to apply host template after this, it compained the parcel is not installed. I then tried execute

parcel.start_distribution()
parcel.activate()

But the same problem remains.

 

So what is the API call to add a new host.

I found the answer, I should use

cluster.add_hosts(hostid[])

I hope cloudera can doument this funciton call here:
