@kenyon Hello it's been a while, in my attempt to remove the params.pp i also took the opportunity to rework the module entirely.

The unit tests still need to updated and maybe some other things not related to the code. The code has been tested on a RHEL 8 machine.

My main questions is how to progress towards a new release is this something i need to do or how would this be done?

Good to know nothing has to be in spec/fixtures

I will try to move some things from common but what about big hashes like the admin policy and the os family specific things?

[kenyon]

OS-specific things should still go in the OS data file in hiera. I think big hashes in init.pp are fine, this allows them to be documented in REFERENCE.md.

I moved the parameter values to init.pp but i'm having some difficulties with framework_config.

This should be merged with the defaults from rundeck because if you overwrite the framework_config paramter then you lose all defaults if you don't set them explicitly like rdeck.base and i would like to avoid this so what's the best approach for this?

One thing you can do is make $framework_config only override the defaults. Set the defaults in the code, then merge (+) the hashes.

@kenyon I updated the specs and references even further for me everything checks out one check fails but it has nothing to do with the actual unit tests. The only thing still on my todo is to update the readme as this includes wrong example for now. Feel free to add more todo's if needed i also updated which issues/PR's will be fixed or become obsolete i might have forgot some but this can resolved later i guess?

@kenyon Update the PR for ubuntu and the unit tests all check out.

[Joris29]

Yeah maybe it's best to squash the commits as there are quite a lot and some commits are not really clear on what they do exactly.

For the migration part i think this will kind off be part of the change logs because all the breaking changes will be in there. There is also not much to it except renaming/removing parameters or restructuring some data like the auth_config or key_storage_config but examples for both are added to the readme.

[Joris29]

Should i do the squash now or will you do it when merging?

[kenyon]

Release PR #523 includes this change.
