ansible-test with ansible-2.14 is adding a lot of new tests to ensure
that the documentation section and the agument spec is complete. Needed
changes:
DOCUMENTATION section
- `type: str` needs to be set for string parameters
- `type: list` needs to be set for list parameters
- `elements: str` needs to be given for list of string parameters
- `required` tags need to be fixed according to the `argument_spec`
- `type` tag needs to match `argument_spec`
- `author` needs to be given with the github user also: `Name (@user)`
argument_spec
- `type='str'` needs to be set for string parameters
- `elements='str'` needs to be added to all list of string parameters
supports_check_mode is turned off as it is not supported.
A call to ansible_ipa_client.check_imports has been added to check for import
errors.
The `copyright` date is extended with `-2022`.
Before "short description" was used in most plugins, modules and also
in the new module templates.
ansible-doc was therefore not showing the short description. To fix the
issue the flag was renamed to short_description instead.
Fixes: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2121362
'ansible-doc' -l lists most idm modules as 'UNDOCUMENTED'
Python 3.11 dropped compat inspect.getargspec. As the roles and modules
need to support Python2 and Python3, the code for getargspec has been
copied from Python 3.10 and is added as a fallback as soon as getargspec
can not be imported from inspect. The copied getargspec is using
getfullargspec internally.
Fixes: #855 (Python's inspect.getargspec was removed in version 3.11)
The import of ansible_ipa_server, ansible_ipa_replica and ansible_ipa_client
might result in a permission denied error for the log file. It seems that
for collections the module utils seem to be loaded before the needed
permissions are aquired now.
The fix simply adds a wrapper for standard_logging_setup that is called in
all the modules of the server, replica and client roles to do the loggin
setup as one of the first steps of the module execution and not before.
The documentation of the module paramaters have been updated. The parameter
list has been updated and all parameters are providing a description and
the required argument has been updated to reflect current setting in the
modules.
sync_time is not using options anymore, but has two new arguments. These
are ntp_servers and ntp_pool. The options argument is not used anymore.
This requires to use inspect on sync_time to be able to detect if the old
or the new function is available.
The call for get_time_source has been added, but is documented out as the
call is only useful in interactive mode.
ipaclient_test now returns ntp_servers and ntp_pool, which are then used
for ipaclient_setup_ntp.
The old name ntpconf has been still used in one place of the NTP
configuration for FreeIPA versions that do not provide the sync_time
function.
Fixes: #76 (Ansible Configure NTP Task)
The FreeIPA versions since 4.7.0 are using chrony and also the new
sync_time function for time synchronization which has been added to
ipaclient/install/client.py.
The old version in ipaclient_setup_ntp has been updated to the code that
has been used in 4.6.4.
cli_servers from ipaclient_test was missing in ipaclient_setup_ntp. This
resulted in a backtrace and is fixed now. Fix options.ntp_servers check
to not use length on NoneType.
The import line of ansible_ipa_client was not correct and used a test
version of the binding that is not possible anymore due to the move of
the module_utils directories into the specific role locations.
The new module ipaclient_setup_ntp to configure and sync time with the NTP
server has been added. The irregular setting ipaclient_ntp has been removed.
The ipaclient_setup_ntp module is using either the new sync_time call or
for compatibility with older FreeIPA versions synconce_ntp.
The reference for ipaclient_ntp in REPLICA.md has been removed also.
This also fixes#55.
