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`
- `author` needs to be given with the github user also: `Name (@user)`
argument_spec
- `elements="str"` needs to be added to all list of string parameters
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.

'ansible-doc' -l lists most idm modules as 'UNDOCUMENTED'
The doc strings for the examples have not been good enough to express
that the module is requiring an existing server and that is not able to
deploy a new server.
execute_ipa_commands replces the check mode exit, the loop over the
generated commands and also in the member failure handling for modules
with member support.
ipaadmin_variables are handled by IPAAnsibleModule,
ansible_module.params_get is used to get the parameters and
ansible_module.ipa_connect is used to simplify the module.
There is a new server management module placed in the plugins folder:
plugins/modules/ipaserver.py
The server module allows to ensure presence and absence of servers. The
module requires an existing server, the deployment of a new server can
not be done with the module.
DNSName has been added to ansible_freeipa_module in plugins/module_utils
as this is used for locations.
Here is the documentation for the module:
README-server.md
New example playbooks have been added:
playbooks/server/server-absent-continue.yml
playbooks/server/server-absent-force.yml
playbooks/server/server-absent-ignore_last_of_role.yml
playbooks/server/server-absent-ignore_topology_disconnect.yml
playbooks/server/server-absent.yml
playbooks/server/server-hidden.yml
playbooks/server/server-location.yml
playbooks/server/server-no-location.yml
playbooks/server/server-no-service-weight.yml
playbooks/server/server-not-hidden.yml
playbooks/server/server-present.yml
playbooks/server/server-service-weight.yml
New tests for the module:
tests/server/test_server.yml
Change in module_utils/ansible_freeipa_module:
DNSName is imported from ipapython.dnsutil and also added to __all__
