Hi! Attached patch is what is needed to allow external plugins for FreeIPA framework to be functional if they need to extend a schema.
The idea is that we would have a separate directory as /usr/share/ipa/schema.d and will allow to use schema (*.ldif) files from it and its subdirectories during install and upgrade stages. Without the patch only selected schema files from /usr/share/ipa are used during install and upgrade. This leads to a failure to install IPA server (or upgrade it) if a new plugin is added. If plugin defines managed permissions, upgrade tool will generate ACIs which will fail to be inserted into LDAP store due to references to missing attributes and object classes. The patch adds a directory to be installed and a helper utility that loads files from the directory and adds them to the list of schema files used during update of dsinstance and upgrade of the server. With this patch I'm successfully managed to make FleetCommander integration plugin completely independent of FreeIPA. -- / Alexander Bokovoy -- Manage your subscription for the Freeipa-devel mailing list: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/freeipa-devel Contribute to FreeIPA: http://www.freeipa.org/page/Contribute/Code
