[opensuse-project] Looking for devs to help maintain the Ansible zypper modules
Hello everyone, I will start with sad news: the Ansible zypper* modules [1][2] don't have maintainers anymore. To fix this, I signed myself up to be a maintainer of those modules, under a newly created team, "Team SUSE". However, I think it would be nice to "spread the work" between multiple people. We don't need to offer anything else than help maintaining those modules, as this is a community effort, and a community "support". Through this email, I would like to encourage people of the openSUSE community to help me maintain these modules. If you're interested, please contact me, and/or propose a PR to Ansible's botmeta to join the team. Thank you in advance!

Hi, I'm updating my openSUSE systems with an ansible playbook, so I would be willing to help out ........ if i knew any python, that is.... I just don't think that something important like this is the right stomping ground to learn a new language. Cheers MH Am Mittwoch, 14. August 2019, 12:01:17 CEST schrieb Jean-Philippe Evrard:

Hi, count me in, I use this module for my work machine and to setup some VMs. Cheers, Dan " Jean-Philippe Evrard " <jean-philippe@evrard.me> writes:

Cool, 2 more, that's a good start! If we manage to get even more people, it would spread the work even further. So if you're reading this email, feel free to still contactus! I am currently on holidays, so I will add everyone on Monday. Thanks for those already stepping up (Dan, MH!).

The way I read it, MH was not stepping up :-) Maybe I misread though. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner@opensuse.org

Oh I can definitely do some testing, but don't let me touch any python code - it's all greek to me. ... how would I upgrade the module on its own? just replace the .py files in my system? and how inside an AWX installation that runs in several docker containers?

Yes.
and how inside an AWX installation that runs in several docker containers?
Changing the module file on your admin machine is enough. No need to touch the containers (as long as you executed ansible commands on them before). Regards, Lars -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner@opensuse.org

Like I said, I'm talking about AWX. That's the upstream project of red hat ansible tower - in my case the "admin machine" that you mention consists of several docker containers. So I guess I'll have to manually copy the changed files into the right containers... made even more tricky by the fact that AWX uses python "namespaces" to have several python versions side by side...

Sorry, I did not ansible touch tower so far... In this case you might indeed be right with your assumption. Regards Lars -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner@opensuse.org

As I am currently maintaining the ansible package, please count me in as well... ;-) with kind regards, Lars -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner@opensuse.org

I did already a patch in the past and I'm using it privately and for work - so count me in, too :) Tom -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner@opensuse.org
related / possible first task: https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/43385[1] it looks as if it's actually a zypper bug / design decision to always return 0 when run on "full autopilot". should we implement the workaround suggested on github, or file a bug against zypper?
