Dirk Julich b37f3892b6 [AAP-74343] Decouple installed_collections/ansible_version from indirect node counting flag (#16453)
* [AAP-74343] Decouple installed_collections and ansible_version from indirect node counting flag

The indirect_instance_count callback plugin and its artifact processing
were entirely gated behind FEATURE_INDIRECT_NODE_COUNTING_ENABLED. This
caused installed_collections and ansible_version to remain unpopulated
when the flag was off, even though these are baseline analytics fields
unrelated to indirect host counting.

Always run the callback plugin and persist installed_collections and
ansible_version to the database. Only the indirect-counting-specific
parts (EventQuery creation, event_queries_processed flag, and vendor
collections) remain gated behind the feature flag.

* [AAP-74343] Read callbacks_enabled from ansible.cfg so user-configured callbacks are preserved

The check for 'callbacks_enabled' in config_values was dead code because
read_ansible_config was never asked to read that setting. Now that the
callback registration runs unconditionally, fix this by including
'callbacks_enabled' in the variables of interest.

* [AAP-74343] Use comma delimiter for ANSIBLE_CALLBACKS_ENABLED

Ansible's CALLBACKS_ENABLED config is type list and splits on commas.
The colon delimiter would cause combined callback names to be treated
as a single invalid name.

* [AAP-74343] Add tests for ANSIBLE_CALLBACKS_ENABLED configuration

Verify that indirect_instance_count is always set, user-configured
callbacks from ansible.cfg are preserved, and the comma delimiter
is used as ansible-core expects.

* [AAP-74343] Use public API for namespace package path access

Replace library.__path__._path[0] with library.__path__[0] to avoid
relying on a private CPython implementation detail of _NamespacePath.

* [AAP-74343] Skip host query scanning when indirect counting flag is off

The indirect_instance_count callback plugin now checks AWX_COLLECT_HOST_QUERIES
to decide whether to scan for host query files. When the feature flag is off,
the plugin only collects collection metadata (name + version) and ansible_version,
skipping the expensive embedded/external query file discovery.

* [AAP-74343] Set AWX_COLLECT_HOST_QUERIES in query discovery tests

The TestExternalQueryDiscovery tests exercise the host query scanning
path, which now requires AWX_COLLECT_HOST_QUERIES=1 in the environment.

* [AAP-74343] Use Ansible plugin config system for collect_host_queries

Declare collect_host_queries as a formal plugin option in DOCUMENTATION
with env var AWX_COLLECT_HOST_QUERIES, replacing the raw os.getenv() call
with self.get_option(). This follows the standard Ansible plugin
configuration pattern.

* [AAP-74343] Add test for disabled collect_host_queries path

Verify that when collect_host_queries is false, the plugin still
enumerates collections for metadata but skips host query file scanning.

Caution

The last release of this repository was released on Jul 2, 2024. Releases of this project are now paused during a large scale refactoring. For more information, follow the Forum and - more specifically - see the various communications on the matter:

AWX provides a web-based user interface, REST API, and task engine built on top of Ansible. It is one of the upstream projects for Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform.

To install AWX, please view the Install guide.

To learn more about using AWX, view the AWX docs site.

The AWX Project Frequently Asked Questions can be found here.

The AWX logos and branding assets are covered by our trademark guidelines.

Contributing

  • Refer to the Contributing guide to get started developing, testing, and building AWX.
  • All code submissions are made through pull requests against the devel branch.
  • All contributors must use git commit --signoff for any commit to be merged and agree that usage of --signoff constitutes agreement with the terms of DCO 1.1
  • Take care to make sure no merge commits are in the submission, and use git rebase vs. git merge for this reason.
  • If submitting a large code change, it's a good idea to join discuss via the Ansible Forum. This helps everyone know what's going on, and it also helps save time and effort if the community decides some changes are needed.

Reporting Issues

If you're experiencing a problem that you feel is a bug in AWX or have ideas for improving AWX, we encourage you to open an issue and share your feedback. But before opening a new issue, we ask that you please take a look at our Issues guide.

Code of Conduct

We require all of our community members and contributors to adhere to the Ansible code of conduct. If you have questions or need assistance, please reach out to our community team at codeofconduct@ansible.com

Get Involved

We welcome your feedback and ideas via the Ansible Forum.
