Create SUSE Manager users from ldap/ad groups
a project by mbrookhuis
Updated 11 months ago. 4 hacker ♥️. 7 followers.

Description

This tool is used to create users in SUSE Manager Server based on LDAP/AD groups. For each LDAP/AD group a role within SUSE Manager Server is defined. Also, the tool will check if existing users still have the role they should have, and, if not, it will be corrected. The same for if a user is disabled, it will be enabled again. If a users is not present in the LDAP/AD groups anymore, it will be disabled or deleted, depending on the configuration.

The code is written for Python 3.6 (the default with SLES15.x), but will also work with newer versions. And works against SUSE Manger 4.3 and 5.x

Goals

Create a python and/or golang utility that will manage users in SUSE Manager based on LDAP/AD group-membership. In a configuration file is defined which roles the members of a group will get.

Installation

To install this project, perform the following steps:

  • Be sure that python 3.6 is installed and also the module python3-PyYAML. Also the ldap3 module is needed:

bash zypper in python3 python3-PyYAML pip install yaml

  • On the server or PC, where it should run, create a directory. On linux, e.g. /opt/sm-ldap-users

  • Copy all the file to this directory.

  • Edit the configsm.yaml. All parameters should be entered. Tip: for the ldap information, the best would be to use the same as for SSSD.

  • Be sure that the file sm-ldap-users.py is executable. It would be good to change the owner to root:root and only root can read and execute:

bash chmod 600 * chmod 700 sm-ldap-users.py chown root:root *

Usage

This is very simple. Once the configsm.yaml contains the correct information, executing the following will do the magic:

bash /sm-ldap-users.py

      I can help with the Python part, SUSE Manager API and LDAP queries.

    Flaky Tests AI Finder for Uyuni and MLM Test Suites by oscar-barrios

    Description

    Our current Grafana dashboards provide a great overview of test suite health, including a panel for "Top failed tests." However, identifying which of these failures are due to legitimate bugs versus intermittent "flaky tests" is a manual, time-consuming process. These flaky tests erode trust in our test suites and slow down development.

    This project aims to build a simple but powerful Python script that automates flaky test detection. The script will directly query our Prometheus instance for the historical data of each failed test, using the jenkins_build_test_case_failure_age metric. It will then format this data and send it to the Gemini API with a carefully crafted prompt, asking it to identify which tests show a flaky pattern.

    The final output will be a clean JSON list of the most probable flaky tests, which can then be used to populate a new "Top Flaky Tests" panel in our existing Grafana test suite dashboard.

    Goals

    By the end of Hack Week, we aim to have a single, working Python script that:

    1. Connects to Prometheus and executes a query to fetch detailed test failure history.
    2. Processes the raw data into a format suitable for the Gemini API.
    3. Successfully calls the Gemini API with the data and a clear prompt.
    4. Parses the AI's response to extract a simple list of flaky tests.
    5. Saves the list to a JSON file that can be displayed in Grafana.
    6. New panel in our Dashboard listing the Flaky tests

    Move Uyuni Test Framework from Selenium to Playwright + AI by oscar-barrios

    Description

    This project aims to migrate the existing Uyuni Test Framework from Selenium to Playwright. The move will improve the stability, speed, and maintainability of our end-to-end tests by leveraging Playwright's modern features. We'll be rewriting the current Selenium code in Ruby to Playwright code in TypeScript, which includes updating the test framework runner, step definitions, and configurations. This is also necessary because we're moving from Cucumber Ruby to CucumberJS.

    If you're still curious about the AI in the title, it was just a way to grab your attention. Thanks for your understanding.

    Goals

    • Migrate Core tests including Onboarding of clients
    • Improve test reliabillity: Measure and confirm a significant reduction of flakynes.
    • Implement a robust framework: Establish a well-structured and reusable Playwright test framework using the CucumberJS
