Hi,
I'm currently working on a Foreman plugin to use IBM PowerVM instances as
compute resources, and have run into the following problem when implementing
the network interface form:
Following the guide at [1], I put my additional network parameters in
|`foreman_powervm/app/views/compute_resources_vms/form/foreman_powervm/_network.html.erb|',
like this:
<%= number_f f, :my_param
:label => _("Foo") %>
I now expected :my_param to be available in ForemanPowerVM::PowerVM#create_vm
(which is my subclass of ComputeResource), in the form of
args['interfaces_attributes'][i]['my_param'], but it is not there (even though
the foreman log shows that my_param was in fact recieved as a POST parameter).
So, as described in [2], I added
parameter_filter Nic::Interface, compute_attributes: [:my_param]
to the Plugin.register block in my Engine class, but to no avail.
After a bit of digging around in the foreman code I managed to "fix" this by
adding :my_param to the :compute_attributes entry in
Foreman::Controller::Parameters::NicBase#add_nic_base_params_filter (file
`foreman_app/controllers/concerns/foreman/controller/parameters/nic_base.rb:27').
How do I keep my parameter from being filtered without altering foreman code?
What is the correct way to register parameters, as parameter_filter doesnt seem
to work?
Thanks for reading and hopefully your help!
