Guidelines for VMware REST module development
*********************************************
-The Ansible VMware REST collection (on `Galaxy <https://galaxy.ansible.com/vmware/vmware_rest>`_, source code `repository <https://github.com/ansible-collections/vmware.vmware_rest>`_) is maintained by Red Hat and the community.
-
-.. contents::
- :local:
-
-Contribution process
-====================
-
-The modules of the vmware_rest collection are autogenerated by another tool called `vmware_rest_code_generator <https://github.com/ansible-collections/vmware_rest_code_generator>`.
-
-If you would like to contribute a change, we would appreciate if you:
-
-- submit a Github Pull Request (PR) against the vmware_rest_code_generator project
-- but also ensure the generated modules are compliant with our quality criteria.
-
-Requirements
-============
-
-You will need:
-
-- Python 3.6 or greater
-- the `tox <https://tox.readthedocs.io/en/latest/install.html>` command
-
-
-vmware_rest_code_generator
-==========================
-
-Your contribution should follow the coding style of `Black <https://github.com/psf/black>`.
-To run the code formatter, just run:
-
-.. code-block:: shell
-
- tox -e black
-
-To regenerate the vmware_rest collection, you can use the following commands:
-
-.. code-block:: shell
-
- tox -e refresh_modules -- --target-dir ~/.ansible/collections/ansible_collections/vmware/vmware_rest
-
-If you also want to update the EXAMPLE section of the modules, run:
-
-.. code-block:: shell
-
- tox -e refresh_examples -- --target-dir ~/.ansible/collections/ansible_collections/vmware/vmware_rest
-
-Testing with ansible-test
-=========================
-
-All the modules are covered by a functional test. The tests are located in the :file:`tests/integration/targets/`.
-
-To run the tests, you will need a vcenter instance and an ESXi.
-
-black code formatter
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-We follow the coding style of `Black <https://github.com/psf/black>`.
-You can run the code formatter with the following command.
-
-
-.. code-block:: shell
-
- tox -e black
-
-sanity tests
-^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-Here we use Python 3.8, the minimal version is 3.6.
-
-.. code-block:: shell
-
- tox -e black
- ansible-test sanity --debug --requirements --local --skip-test future-import-boilerplate --skip-test metaclass-boilerplate --python 3.8 -vvv
-
-
-integration tests
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-These tests should be run against your test environment.
-
-..warning:: The test suite will delete all the existing DC from your test environment.
-
-First, prepare a configuration file, we call it :file:`/tmp/inventory-vmware_rest` in
-this example:
-
-.. code-block:: ini
-
- [vmware_rest]
- localhost ansible_connection=local ansible_python_interpreter=python
-
- [vmware_rest:vars]
- vcenter_hostname=vcenter.test
- vcenter_username=administrator@vsphere.local
- vcenter_password=kLRy|FXwZSHXW0w?Q:sO
- esxi1_hostname=esxi1.test
- esxi1_username=zuul
- esxi1_password=f6QYNi65k05kv8m56
-
-
-To run the tests, use the following command. You may want to adjust the Python version.
-
-.. code-block:: shell
-
- ansible-test network-integration --diff --no-temp-workdir --python 3.8 --inventory /tmp/inventory-vmware_rest zuul/
