Hi,
I am trying to create a custom module based on pyrax (rackspace) to create reverse dns entries. I followed the hacking guide but I am stuck testing the new module because of an AttributeError: ‘module’ object has no attribute ‘ModuleReplacer’ error.
My set up is as follows:
Mac OSX, installed python with brew and using pip for the dependencies. Local python is at /usr/local/bin/python. Then I following the hacking guide at http://www.ansibleworks.com/docs/developing_modules.html and checked out ansible, ran ./hacking/env-setup and than:
./hacking/test-module -m …/servers/modules/rax_dns
Output:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File “./hacking/test-module”, line 163, in
main()
File “./hacking/test-module”, line 147, in main
(modfile, module_style) = boilerplate_module(options.module_path, options.module_args)
File “./hacking/test-module”, line 84, in boilerplate_module
replacer = module_common.ModuleReplacer()
The rax_dns:
#!/usr/bin/python #changing this to /usr/local/bin/python has no effect.
import pyrax
def main():
module = AnsibleModule(
argument_spec = dict(
credentials = dict(required=True),
hostname = dict(required=True)
)
)
pyrax.set_setting(“identity_type”, “rackspace”)
pyrax.set_credential_file(credentials)
include magic from lib/ansible/module_common.py
#<<INCLUDE_ANSIBLE_MODULE_COMMON>>
main()
What am I missing? Also can I put my custom modules in my own project? Or do they need to be in the ansible directory?
