Problem running mine runner

[cmclaughlin]

Not sure what's going on here... perhaps a bug?

# pepper -vvv --client=runner mine.get tgt='myhosts*' fun='network.interface_ip'

Works fine from my saltmaster:

# salt-run mine.get 'myhosts*' network.interface_ip
myhost1:
    172.X.X.X
myhost2:
    172.X.X.X

Tried running rest_cherrypy in debug mode, but there's nothing in the logs.

We're using pepper with other runners, so it seems to be limited to mine.get or perhaps the arguments.

# pepper --client=runner test.sleep 1
{
    "return": [
        true
    ]
}

This might be a duplicate of issue #57...? Seems like the fix was merged a long time ago though.

In case this helps...

What does your mine_functions look like so that I can try and replicate this?

Thanks,
Daniel

[cmclaughlin]

Thanks...

mine_functions:
  network.interface_ip: ['eth0']

[gtmanfred]

This is a problem with salt-api.

It is overloading the fun function, so you have to pass it to the kwarg argument.

pepper -vvv --client runner mine.get tgt='*' kwarg='{"fun": "network.interface_ip"}'

Unfortunately, pepper does not convert the json to a python dictionary, so it doesn't get passed to the salt-api correctly.

I am fixing it with this PR #149

[gtmanfred]

I am working on moving all the tests over to pytest and then adding more tests, once I have done that I will do a release.

[gtmanfred]

Should be released now with 0.7.0
