Config module

===========

Description

-----------

The config module allows the setting of global config parameters within IPA. If no parameters are specified it returns the list of all current parameters.

The config module is as compatible as possible to the Ansible upstream `ipa_config` module, but adds many additional parameters

Features

--------

* IPA server configuration management

Supported FreeIPA Versions

--------------------------

FreeIPA versions 4.4.0 and up are supported by the ipaconfig module.

Requirements

------------

**Controller**

* Ansible version: 2.8+

**Node**

* Supported FreeIPA version (see above)

Usage

=====

Example inventory file

```ini

[ipaserver]

ipaserver.test.local

```

Example playbook to read config options:

```yaml

---

- name: Playbook to handle global config options

  hosts: ipaserver

  become: true

  tasks:

    - name: return current values of the global configuration options

      ipaconfig:

        ipaadmin_password: password

      register: result

    - name: display default login shell

      debug:

        msg: '{{result.config.defaultlogin }}'

    - name: ensure defaultloginshell and maxusernamelength are set as required

      ipaconfig:

        ipaadmin_password: password

        defaultlogin: /bin/bash

        maxusername: 64

```

```yaml

---

- name: Playbook to ensure some config options are set

  hosts: ipaserver

  become: true

  tasks:

    - name: set defaultlogin and maxusername

      ipaconfig:

        ipaadmin_password: password
