Future Enhancements

Although this repo contains a couple of roles (one to deploy AAP and EDA, and one to deploy the demo setup), it’s a long way from best-practice Ansible! The code should be refactored into more fine-grained roles, potentially with switches to turn on or off the installation of EDA.

EDA itself doesn’t have a fully production-ready collection for automation yet. This means that, for example, the AAP token generated to allow EDA to connect to the AAP Controller can’t be automatically added to EDA.

I also need to work on detecting the availability of AAP to apply licensing. This sometimes works, sometimes requires rerunning the playbook after a pause.

At the moment, I haven’t automated the configuration of the webhook in github - this has to be done manually. However, the community.general.github_webhook module would allow this process to be automated too.

A further refinement may be to use the details provided in the webhook to make the workflow process succeed or fail rather than using a variable defined on the workflow.
