The way how randompasswords are returned by the ipahost module depends
so far on the number of hosts that are handled by the module.
This is unexpected if for example a json file is provided with the hosts
parameter. As it might be unknown how many hosts are in the json file,
this behaviour is unexpected. The return should not vary in this case.
This chamge makes the return simply depend on the use of the hosts
paramater. As soon as this parameter is used, the return will always be:
"host": { "<the host>": { "randompassword": "<the host random password>" } }
In the simply case with one host it will be still
"host": { "randompassword": "<the host random password>" }
This change for ipahost is related to the ipauser PR #1053.
Writing a new Ansible FreeIPA module
A ansible-freeipa module should have:
-
Code:
- A module file placed in
plugins/modules/<ipa_module_name>.py
- A module file placed in
-
Documentation:
README-<module_name>.mdfile in the root directory and linked from the main README.md- Example playbooks in
playbooks/<module_name>/directory
-
Tests:
- Test cases (also playbooks) defined in
tests/<module_name>/test_<something>.yml. It's ok to have multiple files in this directory.
- Test cases (also playbooks) defined in
Use the script utils/new_module to create the stub files for a new module.
