Func - Users And Groups Module
Maintainer: Gregory Masseau
Description:
This module allows for the management of users and groups on minion systems within a Func environment. Tasks such as ensuring the existence of a particular user/group, creating a desired user/group, modifying the properties of a specified user/group, or managing the group memberships of users are within the scope of this module's intended functionality.
Plan for version v0.4:
user_add:
The current implementation of user_add has very few options, and incorporating these options is most of what's on the feature list for v0.4. In the mean time, most sorts of users you would like to create can be created by first creating a user with relatively default settings using user_add, and subsequently modifying any properties you'd like changed. It would be nice if these additional steps could be cut out and the user be instantiated with the desired options with one method call.
password alteration:
Currently, no method exists to allow the manipulation of a user's password. Initial implementation of methods incorporating this functionality will hopefully be seen in v0.4.
Changelog:
- Password alteration method added.
- Pluralized methods for all applicable singular methods.
- General API cleanup.
- Create, delete, and modify groups.
- Create, delete, and modify users.
- Manage the memberships of users within groups
- Most informational methods are complete and working for both users and groups at this point.
- Initial release, supporting only some informational query messages regarding user accounts on the target system.
