This patch refactors the module template for modules with member
management, in a way that the addition of member management command
logic is not duplicated in different states or actions.
This idiom has been applied recently along with other fixes to modules
with idempotence issues reducing the modules code size and centering
code logic in specific blocks.
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.
Use IPAAnsibleModule and ipamodule_base_docs in the templates of
utils/new_module.
ipaadmin_password lines in the examples have been added, 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.
ipamodule+member.py.in is additionally using gen_add_list and
gen_intersection_list to reduce the command calls to the changes only.
Added code to the ipa* plugins to support Ansible's check_mode, by
means of a clean exit before the execution of the actual list of
commands that would otherwise create/update/delete IPA servers
and/or its resources.
The script will create the module in plugins/modules, the README, test and
playbook files.
Usage: new_module [options] <module name> <author name>
<author email address>
Create new ansible-freeipa module using templates.
Options:
-m Create module with member support
-f Force creation
-h Print this help
Example:
utils/new_module -m permission "My Name" myname@some.email
