The attrs handling was not complete and did not support to ensure presence
or absence of attributes with action:member.
The includedattrs and excludedattrs parameters have not been added with
this change as the use of attrs will automatically set includedattrs and
excludedattrs. The includedattrs and excludedattrs parameters are only
usable for managed permissions and duplicating attrs.
The permission module may not handle privileges. An IPA internal only API
has been used for this. The prvilege variable and all related code paths
have been removed.
Fixes: #424 ([Permission Handling] Not able to add additional attributes
with existing attributes)
Fixes: #425 ([Permission Handling] Not able to add member privilege while
adding permission)
FreeIPA 4.8.7 has introduced bind type 'self' as a valid value, and
this PR adds checks so the module fails early if the value is used
with an unsupported version.
Tests and documentation have been updated to reflect the changes.
There is a new permission management module placed in the plugins folder:
plugins/modules/ipapermission.py
The permission module allows to ensure presence of absence of permissions
and manage permission members.
Here is the documentation for the module:
README-permission.md
New example plabooks have been added:
playbooks/permission/permission-absent.yml
playbooks/permission/permission-allow-read-employeenum.yml
playbooks/permission/permission-member-absent.yml
playbooks/permission/permission-member-present.yml
playbooks/permission/permission-present.yml
playbooks/permission/permission-renamed.yml
New tests for the module:
tests/permission/test_permission.yml
