Recent pylint versions warn against the use of an 'else' in a
'try-except' block if using a 'return' on the 'except' part is is the
idom used by ansible-freeipa when retrieving IPA data objects.
This change removes the usage of the 'else:' in such cases, and modify
the templates so that new modules do not have the same issue in the
future.
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
- `required` tags need to be fixed according to the `argument_spec`
- `aliases` tag need to be consistent to `argument_spec`
- `authors` needs to be given with the github user also: `Name (@user)`
- `extends_documentation_fragment: ipamodule_base_docs` needs added and
`ipaadmin_*` parameters need to be removed
- `choices` needs to be replaced with `aliases` to match `argument_spec`
argument_spec
- `no_log=False` or `no_log=True` needs to be set for all parameters
that have `key` in the name or for dicts also in one the key names
- `required=None` needs to be replaced by `required=False`
The `copyright` date is extended with `-2022`.
There is a new automount key module placed in the plugins folder:
plugins/modules/ipaautomountkey.py
The server module allows to ensure presence and absence of automount
keys. The module requires an existing automount location and map to
place the key within.
Here is the documentation for the module:
README-automountkey.md
New example playbooks have been added:
playbooks/automount/automount-key-absent.yaml
playbooks/automount/automount-key-present.yaml
New tests for the module:
tests/automount/test_automountkey.yml
