Pull Req #5916, add userdata to cloud/nova_compute

Hi, I’d just like to mention a pull request I submitted a few weeks ago which I think greatly increases the usefulness of the nova_compute module.

As it stands you can’t pass userdata (e.g. for cloud-init scripts) to this module, which makes it difficult to do full provisioning of OpenStack instances. The fix is pretty trivial, only a couple of lines, and I’d really like to see it get merged soon. I’m using Ansible for a private cloud project at a large UK enterprise client.

Any changes or improvements required to this patch please let me know.

Thanks,

Thanks Matt we have a large queue and are working through it with testing.

Please be patient and if you have PR questions use the devel list.

We are currently more focused on merging priority bugs at this time though if users can help test PRs this is usually helpful as well.

Thanks!
