Add arch option to theforeman.foreman.repository module

[igramic]

SUMMARY

In Satellite GUI when we create product repository we can restrict that repository on specific OS version (rhel8, rhel7 ...) and architecture
It would be awesome if we could do same via theforeman.foreman.repository

ISSUE TYPE

• Feature Idea

[evgeni]

from the API doc (of 4.1):

os_versions - Identifies whether the repository should be disabled on a client with a non-matching OS version. Pass [] to enable regardless of OS version. Maximum length 1; allowed tags are: rhel-6, rhel-7, rhel-8

also interesting:

arch - Architecture of content in the repository

[evgeni]

@igramic implemented the os_version in #1266 - so we're only missing arch now.

Hello everyone,

is there a timeline, when we can expect this new feature?
Would be very cool for a project.

Best regards

@SimonLorentz as you asked so nicely, feel free to try #1282 ;-)

[SimonLorentz]

@evgeni thanks, it seems to do nothing, no error, but also no action ^^

Which Katello version are you running, and what would you expect to happen once you set that option?

[SimonLorentz]

I´m running against Satellite 6.9 with Katello 3.18.1.

I would expect, that the arch is set in my repository, like the version.

[evgeni]

That parameter is only present in the Katello 4.0+ API: https://projects.theforeman.org/issues/31615

You actually should have gotten a warning from Ansible, that the parameter is not supported by your server. Something like "The following parameters are not supported by your server when performing update on repository: arch. They were ignored."

[SimonLorentz]

Ah okay yes I got it, my bad

[evgeni]

FWIW, I tried this against a Katello 4.1 installation, and it works exactly as you'd expect ;)
