Ansible Plugin

Problem¶

'metadata' contains data that isn't being exposed in the bindings directly. Here's an example of 'metadata' data:

"metadata": {
    "namespace": "my_namespace", 
    "name": "my_collection", 
    "version": "1.2.0", 
    "description": "A collection that performs...",
    "license": [
      "MIT",
    ],
    "authors": [
      "John Smith <jsmith@example.com>",
    ],
    "readme": "README.md",
    "tags": [
      "deployment",
    ],
    "dependencies": {},
    "documentation": null,
    "license_file": null,
    "issues": null,
    "homepage": null,
    "repository": null,
  },

Solution¶

Make each it's own field. Use ArrayField, CharField, TextField. Also use some ForeignKey modeling for 'dependencies' and 'tags'. Tags needs to become its own Model and it will needs its own Viewset also. This allows for filter searching on the current known Tags through that viewset.
