The old ansible-community ansible-lint is deprecated. There is a
new ansible-lint github action. The new ansible-lint has several checks
related to ansible-test and the ignore files. Many of our ignore settings
are not allowed any more and are required to be fixed or addressed in the
Ansible preferred way.
The python imports have to be wrapped in a try/except ImportError, and
where possible, an error must be returned from the module explaining
what was not able to be imported.
The module documentation must comply with the Ansible standards. One
aspect of this is the
version_added
must be a valid ansible-coreversion in X.Y.Z format. Note that this version isn't really used
anywhere, so it doesn't matter for users of the role, it is purely
an
ansible-test
and import gating issue.I created a function
generate_module_doc
which will generate theDOCUMENTATION options section from the Ansible module_args, if
necessary. Hopefully it won't be necessary going forward.
I fought a losing battle with flake8, pep8, etc. in ansible-test
to try to preserve the formatting in size.py - future developers
are welcome to try.
The result of this is that the .sanity files can be reduced to the
bare minimum which will greatly reduce the maintenance burden of
those files, make it easier to support newer versions of Ansible,
and make it easier to import the system roles collection into Galaxy
and Automation Hub.
The latest Ansible repo gating tests run ansible-lint against
the collection format instead of against individual roles.
We have to convert the role to collection format before running
ansible-test.
Role developers can run this locally using
tox -e collection,ansible-lint-collection
See linux-system-roles/tox-lsr#125
