+Classes and methods to verify NDFC Data Center VXLAN EVPN Fabric parameters.

+# If auto_symmetric_vrf_lite == True, several other parameters
+# become mandatory. The user has not explicitely set these other
+# parameters.  Hence, verify.result would be False (i.e. an error)
+# If auto_symmetric_vrf_lite ==  False, no other parameters are required
+# and so verify.result would be True and verify.payload would contain
+# a valid payload to send to NDFC
+config["auto_symmetric_vrf_lite"] = False
+verify = VerifyFabricParams()

+    2.  diff must be a dict()

+        print(result.deleted)
+        Output: [{"foo": "bar"}, {"baz": "qux"}]

+         from the controller.

+    result = Result(ansible_module)
+    result.deleted = deleted.diff # Appends to deleted-state changes
+    result.merged = merged.diff   # Appends to merged-state changes

+    # that represents the changes for a given state.
+    result.overridden = {"foo": "bar"}

Subject: [PATCH 004/228] Refactor to leverage RestSend and improve modularity.

This is a work in progress.  merged state works, but it still needs a lot of cleaning up and support for additional fabric parameters.

TODO:

general cleanup
query state
unit tests
integration tests

-ansible_collections/cisco/dcnm/plugins/module_utils/fabric/fabric.py
-
-Example Usage:
-import sys
-from ansible_collections.cisco.dcnm.plugins.module_utils.fabric.fabric import (
-    VerifyFabricParams,
-)
-
-config = {}
-config["fabric_name"] = "foo"
-config["bgp_as"] = "65000.869"
-# If auto_symmetric_vrf_lite == True, several other parameters
-# become mandatory. The user has not explicitely set these other
-# parameters.  Hence, verify.result would be False (i.e. an error)
-# If auto_symmetric_vrf_lite ==  False, no other parameters are required
-# and so verify.result would be True and verify.payload would contain
-# a valid payload to send to NDFC
-config["auto_symmetric_vrf_lite"] = False
-verify = VerifyFabricParams()
-verify.config = config
-verify.state = "merged"
-verify.validate_config()
-if verify.result == False:
-    print(f"result {verify.result}, {verify.msg}")
-    sys.exit(1)
-print(f"result {verify.result}, {verify.msg}, payload {verify.payload}")

-        -   anycast_lb_id
-        -   loopback0_ipv6_range

-        The value is a dictionary with the following keys:
-
-        value:  The parameter value that makes the dependent parameters
-                mandatory.  Using underlay_is_v6 as an example, it must
-                have a value of True, for the six dependent parameters to

-        mandatory:  a python dict() containing mandatory parameters and what
-                    value (if any) they must have.  Indicate that the value
-                    should not be considered by setting it to None.
-
-        NOTE: Generalized parameter value validation is handled elsewhere
-
-        Hence, we have the following structure for the
-        self._mandatory_params dictionary, to handle the case where
-        underlay_is_v6 is set to True.  Below, we don't case what the
-        value for any of the mandatory parameters is.  We only care that

Subject: [PATCH 009/228] Use Results() class to standardize results

A Results() class is introduced.  The intent is to:

1. Standardize results processing and output
2. Rremove the distraction of results processing from the main logic of a given module.
3. Enable result format changes to be made in a single place, should we ever want to do that.

 class Results:
     """
-    Return various result templates that AnsibleModule can use.
+    Collect results across tasks.
 
-    results = Results()
-    # A generic result that indicates a task failed with no changes
-    failed_result = results.failed_result
+    Provides a mechanism to collect results across tasks.  The task classes
+    must do the following:
+
+    1.  Accept an instantiation of Results
+        -   Typically a class property is used for this
+    2.  Populate the Results instance with the results of the task
+        -   Typically done by transferring RestSend's responses to the
+            Results instance
+    3. Register the results of the task with Results.register_task_results()
+        -   Typically done after the task is complete
+
+    Results should be instantiated in the main Ansible Task class and passed
+    to all other task classes.  The task classes should populate the Results
+    instance with the results of the task and then register the results with
+    Results.register_task_results().  This may be done within a separate class
+    (as in the example below, where FabricDelete() class is called from the
+    TaskDelete() class.  The Results instance can then be used to build the
+    final result, by calling Results.build_final_result().
+
+
+    Example Usage:
+
+    We assume an Ansible module structure as follows:
+
+    TaskCommon() : Common methods used by the various ansible state classes.
+    TaskDelete(TaskCommon) : Implements the delete state
+    TaskMerge(TaskCommon)  : Implements the merge state
+    TaskQuery(TaskCommon)  : Implements the query state
+    etc...
+
+    In TaskCommon, Results is instantiated and, hence, is inherited by all
+    state classes.:
+
+    class TaskCommon:
+        def __init__(self):
+            self.results = Results()
+
+        @property
+        def results(self):
+            '''
+            An instance of the Results class.
+            '''
+            return self.properties["results"]
+
+        @results.setter
+        def results(self, value):
+            self.properties["results"] = value
+
+
+    In each of the state classes (TaskDelete, TaskMerge, TaskQuery, etc...)
+    a class is instantiated (in the example below, FabricDelete) that
+    supports collecting results for the Results instance:
+
+    class TaskDelete(TaskCommon):
+        def __init__(self, ansible_module):
+            super().__init__(ansible_module)
+            self.fabric_delete = FabricDelete(self.ansible_module)
+
+        def commit(self):
+            '''
+            delete the fabric
+            '''
+            ...
+            self.fabric_delete.fabric_names = ["FABRIC_1", "FABRIC_2"]
+            self.fabric_delete.results = self.results
+            # results.register_task_results() is called within the
+            # commit() method of the FabricDelete class.
+            self.fabric_delete.commit()
+
+
+    Finally, within the main() method of the Ansible module, the final result
+    is built by calling Results.build_final_result():
+
+    if ansible_module.params["state"] == "deleted":
+        task = TaskDelete(ansible_module)
+        task.commit()
+    elif ansible_module.params["state"] == "merged":
+        task = TaskDelete(ansible_module)
+        task.commit()
+    etc...
+
+    # Build the final result
+    task.results.build_final_result()
+
+    # Call fail_json() or exit_json() based on the final result
+    if True in task.results.failed:
+        ansible_module.fail_json(**task.results.final_result)
+    ansible_module.exit_json(**task.results.final_result)

Subject: [PATCH 011/228] Make results more like existing module results

Previously, results contained an "OK" and "FAILED" key for each of results, response, diff.

Results for existing modules do not have this.  So, we've changed the results for dcnm_fabric to more closely match the results of existing modules.

We've still retained the unique sequence_number for each of result, response, and diff entries so that they can be correlated.

Also:

Move template_parse_each_fabric.py from module_utils/fabric to module_utils/fabric/vxlan

Subject: [PATCH 014/228] Use RestSend from rest_send.py

RestSend and Results are now generic enough to use across all of dcnm_image_upgrade, dcnm_image_policy, and dcnm_fabric modules.

Hence, we can use module_utils/common/rest_send.py for dcnm_fabric and delete rest_send_fabric.py/

Subject: [PATCH 016/228] Add unit tests for FabricUpdateBulk, more...

- test_fabric_create_bulk.py: Update docstrings for a few tests
- update.py: FabricUpdateCommon._send_payloads(), fix reference to Results() property that no longer exists
- query.py: run thru black
- fabric_summary.py: use a private copy of Results()
- fabric_details.py: use a private copy of Results()
- delete.py: run thru black
- create.py: add type hinting to a few methods
- common.py: fix bad f-string interpolation

Subject: [PATCH 017/228] Move _fixup_payloads_to_commit() to FabricCommon(),
 more...

FabricCreateCommon() and FabricUpdateCommon(): move _fixup_payloads_to_commit() to FabricCommon() and modify it to raise ValueError if ANYCAST_GW_MAC is not convertable.

test_fabric_update_bulk.py: Add unit test to verify behavior when ANYCAST_GW_MAC is not convertable.

test_fabric_update_bulk.py: Modify unit test 00031 to include ANYCAST_GW_MAC that IS convertable.

Subject: [PATCH 025/228] Initial cut at dynamic parameter validation from
 template

module_utils/fabric/ruleset.py: TODO: We still need to handle the case where "and" and "or" are present in a rule.  This impacts handling of one rule in the Easy_Fabric template.  Specifically for ANYCAST_RP_IP_RANGE:

Rule:

( STATIC_UNDERLAY_IP_ALLOC == ' False' and UNDERLAY_IS_V6 == ' False' and REPLICATION_MODE == 'Multicast' ) or ( STATIC_UNDERLAY_IP_ALLOC == ' True' and UNDERLAY_IS_V6 == ' False' and REPLICATION_MODE == 'Multicast' and RP_MODE == 'bidir' )

-    NOTES:
-    1.  Assumes deleted and merged are class instances with diff properties
-        that return the diff for the deleted and merged states.
-    2.  diff must be a dict()
-    3.  result.deleted, etc do not overwrite the existing value.  They append
-        to it.  So, for example:
-        result.deleted = {"foo": "bar"}
-        result.deleted = {"baz": "qux"}
-        print(result.deleted)
-        Output: [{"foo": "bar"}, {"baz": "qux"}]
-    4. result.response is a list of dicts.  Each dict represents a response
-         from the controller.
-
-    result = Result(ansible_module)
-    result.deleted = deleted.diff # Appends to deleted-state changes
-    result.merged = merged.diff   # Appends to merged-state changes
-    # If a class doesn't have a diff property, then just append the dict
-    # that represents the changes for a given state.
-    result.overridden = {"foo": "bar"}
-    etc for other states
-    # If you want to append a response from the controller, then do this:
-    result.response = response_from_controller
-
-    print(result.result)
-
-    # output of the above print() will be a dict with the following structure:
-    {
-        "changed": True, # or False
-        "diff": {
-            "deleted": [<list of dict representing changes for deleted state>],

Subject: [PATCH 034/228] Fix (hopefully) for parameter validation logic

- playbook config
- parameter defaults defined in the template

We needed also to take into account:
- fabric config on the controller (if any)

Subject: [PATCH 041/228] Initial cut at handling invalid parameter values

1. Added ParamInfo() class

Pulls useful information about a parameter from the template, including:
    parameter_type = my_parameter_info["type"] # python type: bool, str, int, dict, set, list, None
    parameter_choices = my_parameter_info["choices"] # python list, or None
    parameter_min = my_parameter_info["min"] # int, or None
    parameter_max = my_parameter_info["max"] # int, or None
    parameter_default = my_parameter_info["default"] # Any, or None

2. Leverage the above in ValidatePlaybookParams().verify_parameter_value()

We check the parameter value before checking for any dependent parameter inconsistencies.

Subject: [PATCH 044/228] VerifyPlaybookParams() specify template via property

1. VerifyPlaybookParams()

Previously, the fabric template was determined within VerifyPlaybookParams() via the VerifyPlaybookParams().refresh_template() method.  We've changed this to match the other class input properties (config_controller, and config_playbook).  The caller now specifies the template directly, using the instance.template property.

We have updated VerifyPlaybookParams() docstring to explain the new usage in detail.

2. Modified dcnm_fabric.py to pass the template per the change in #1.

3. ParamInfo().make_int(): Modify so that we do not convert bool() to int()

4. ParamInfo()._get_choices(): sort the choices for easier interpretation in error messages.

Subject: [PATCH 045/228] VerifyPlaybookParams() and TempateGet(): use raise
 instead of AnsibleModule.fail_json()

Unit-testing of support classes will be much easier if we remove AnsibleModule from all support classes and let any errors that occur in these classes bubble up to the main ansible task module.

Pros:

- We don't have to mock AnsibleModule when unit-testing these classes
- We can use these classes independently of Ansible
- We can use pytest asserts to test that raise was called

Cons:
- The main task module becomes littered with try/except blocks.

IMHO, the benefits are worth it overall.

Subject: [PATCH 049/228] WIP: Disentangle AnsibleModule() from support
 classes, continued

Continuing work to remove reliance on AnsibleModule in support classes.

Remove ansible_module.fail_json() calls from:
- common.py
- create.py
- delete.py
- fabric_details.py
- query.py
- update.py

Update dcnm_fabric.py to handle Exceptions from the updated support classes.

-        build a map of mandatory parameters.
-
-        Certain parameters become mandatory only if another parameter is
-        set, or only if it's set to a specific value.  For example, if
-        UNDERLAY_IS_V6 is set to True, the following parameters become
-        mandatory:
-        -   ANYCAST_LB_ID
-        -   LOOPBACK0_IPV6_RANGE
-        -   LOOPBACK1_IPV6_RANGE
-        -   ROUTER_ID_RANGE

-        -   V6_SUBNET_TARGET_MASK
-
-        self._mandatory_params is a dictionary, keyed on parameter.
-        The value is a dictionary with the following keys:
-
-        value:  The parameter value that makes the dependent parameters
-                mandatory.  Using UNDERLAY_IS_V6 as an example, it must
-                have a value of True, for the six dependent parameters to
-                be considered mandatory.
-        mandatory:  a python dict() containing mandatory parameters and what
-                    value (if any) they must have.  Indicate that the value
-                    should not be considered by setting it to None.
-
-        NOTE: Generalized parameter value validation is handled elsewhere
-
-        Hence, we have the following structure for the
-        self._mandatory_params dictionary, to handle the case where
-        underlay_is_v6 is set to True.  Below, we don't care what the
-        value for any of the mandatory parameters is.  We only care that
-        they are set.
-
-        self._mandatory_params = {
-            "UNDERLAY_IS_V6": {

-        }
-
-        Above, we validate that all mandatory parameters are set, only
-        if the value of UNDERLAY_IS_V6 is True.
-
-        Set "value:" above to "__any__" if the dependent parameters are
-        mandatory regardless of the parameter's value.  For example, if
-        we wanted to verify that UNDERLAY_IS_V6 is set to True in the case
-        that ANYCAST_LB_ID is set (which can be a value between 1-1023) we
-        don't care what the value of ANYCAST_LB_ID is.  We only care that
-        UNDERLAY_IS_V6 is set to True.  In this case, we could add the following:

Subject: [PATCH 051/228] Update unit tests for exception handling changes.

Previously, we were calling fail_json() in support classes where now we are raising ValueError, KeyError, etc, as appropriate.

Modified unit test pytest.raises() to account for the above changes.

Also, modify support classes to propagate error messages when re-raising exceptions.

Subject: [PATCH 054/228] ControllerResponseError: Add custom exception

There's not an obvious standard python exception for controller response errors.  Adding a custom exception to handle these cases.  Leveraging it in the classes below:

- TemplateGet
- TemplateGetAll

Also:

TemplateGetAll: Add rest_send property to remove instantiation of RestSend from the class.

Subject: [PATCH 055/228] WIP: Disentangle AnsibleModule() from support
 classes, continued

1 Remove ansible_module as an argument to __init__() in all support classes.
   - Instead, __init__() now takes an argument of params (i.e. AnsibleModule().params)

2. Rather than instantiate FabricSummary, FabricDetailsByName, etc, in support classes, add properties to FabricCommon() (common.py) to pass instances of these from within the main Task() in dcnm_fabric.py.

3. Update class docstrings with new Usage.

4. Remove imports for FabricDetailsByName, FabricSummary, and RestSend from support classes files.

5. Standardize naming of _init_properties() and _build_properties().
- _init_properties(): initializes the properties dict (and potentially adds key/values)
- _build_properties(): adds key/values to the properties dict specific to the class.

6. Update unit tests

Subject: [PATCH 061/228] FabricUpdateCommon() fixes, more...

1. FabricUpdateCommon()._fabric_needs_update() returned with True as soon as a key/value was found that differed from the value on the controller.  This skipped checks for the other keys in the payload.

Fixed by updating a set() (self._fabric_update_required) when a key's value differs from the controller.

2.  self._mandatory_payload_keys was missing BGP_AS.  Added.

3. Updated unit test test_fabric_update_bulk_00031 to include key/values that trigger int() and bool() code paths in FabricUpdateCommon()._prepare_payload_value_for_comparison()

4. Added unit test test_fabric_update_bulk_00025 to test for missing BGP_AS key

Subject: [PATCH 081/228] FabricDelete(): Handle fabric not empty case, more...

1. FabricDelete()._verify_fabric_can_be_deleted(): Originally named _can_fabric_be_deleted(), we never integrated this check.  Rewrote this method to raise ValueError if the fabric cannot be deleted and return a user-friendly message.

2. FabricDelete(): Update results and call FabricDelete().register_result() prior to raising ValueError()

3. FabricDelete()._validate_commit_parameters(): If user has not set instance.results, instantiate Results() so that we can update instance.results with the failure.

Subject: [PATCH 089/228] FabricDelete().commit(): Call register_task_result()

FabricDelete().commit(): When there are no fabrics to delete, we still need to call register_task_result().  In this case, we simulate a 200 response from the controller with MESSAGE: "No fabrics to delete"

Subject: [PATCH 105/228] FabricDetails(): improve Results() update handling

1. When updating Results() take into account the RETURN_CODE and set Results().failed to True if != 200 and False if == 200.

2. While testing indicates that the DATA key is always present (it's empty if no fabrics exist on the controller), we want to update Results() even in the unlikely case that the DATA key is missing in the controller response.

Modified FabricDetails().refresh_super() as follows:
- refactor to add FabricDetails()._update_results() method.
- Call this method prior to returning in the case where DATA field is missing in the controller response.

Subject: [PATCH 107/228] FabricDetails: Reorganize response fixtures

1. responses_FabricDetailsByName.json: new response fixture file for class FabricDetailsByName()

2. responses_FabricDetails.json: move all entries that are not specific to FabricDetails() class into new responses file mentioned in #1 above.

3. All unit test python files: use inspect to get the test name and base the response fixture name on this.  I've had a couple instances where I forgot to update the (hardcoded) key which points to the fixture(s) being accessed in the test.  This change will mitigate that happening in the future since the key is now derived from the test name.

Subject: [PATCH 108/228] FabricDetailsByName().filtered_data: raise ValueError
 if filter is not set, more...

1. FabricDetailsByName().filtered_data: raise ValueError if filter is not set

2. FabricDetailsByName().filtered_data: update docstring to indicate that ValueError can be raised

3. FabricDetailsByName()._get(): modify error message to make explicit that filter is a fabric_name.  This is also consistent with _get_nv_pair()'s error message.

Subject: [PATCH 115/228] Modify ruleset structure to accommodate boolean "or"

1. Ruleset(): Modify the ruleset structure to accommodate different types of rules, including:

  - "na": rules containing a single term with no boolean operators
  - "and" rules containing only AND'd terms
  - "or" rules containing only OR'd terms

2. VerifyPlaybookParams(): Modify to align with the above Ruleset() changes:

  - Add handler for OR'd rule terms
  - Update handler for AND'd rule terms
  - Update handler for rules with no boolean operators
  - Refactor error message handling and include specific message approprate for OR'd terms
  - Refactor verify_parameter() method into separate methods for each type of rule
  - Various other minor docstring and comment improvements

Subject: [PATCH 120/228] TemplateGetAll: disentangle from AnsibleModule,
 more...

NOTE: We are not using TempateGetAll() in the dcnm_fabric module.  But it may prove useful in the future, so am updating it and adding unit tests.

1. TemplateGetAll: disentangle from AnsibleModule()

2. TemplateGetAll.rest_send: harden to mandate an instance of RestSend()

3. TemplateGetAll.results: add this getter/setter, though we may remove it later...

4. TemplateGetAll.templates: harden to raise TypeError if value is not a dict.

5. TemplateGetAll.refresh(): align ControllerResponseError() calling params with current implementation.

6. TemplateGetAll.refresh(): convert controller response DATA to dict, keyed on template name, and set self.templates to this dict.

Subject: [PATCH 123/228] FabricSummary()._update_device_counts: remove
 unneeded check

1. FabricSummary()._verify_controller_response(): raise exception if self.data is empty.

2. FabricSummary()._update_device_counts() no longer needs a check to verify self.data since the check is now done in  FabricSummary()._verify_controller_response().

3. FabricSummary().fabric_name setter: leverage ApiEndpoints(). _validate_fabric_name() and update docstring.

4. FabricSummary(): Throughout, remove unneeded f-string interpolation of error message when re-raising exceptions.

Subject: [PATCH 128/228] FabricUpdateCommon(). _can_fabric_be_deployed():
 exception handling

1. FabricUpdateCommon(). _can_fabric_be_deployed(): catch and re-raise ValueError thrown by FabricSummary.fabric_name.

2. Since we added exception handling in FabricUpdateCommon(). _can_fabric_be_deployed() for exceptions thrown by FabricSummary().refresh(), we need to handle these exceptions up the call stack.  Modified the following calling methods to catch and re-raise the exception:

- FabricUpdateCommon()._build_fabrics_to_config_deploy()
- FabricUpdateCommon()._send_payloads()
- FabricUpdateBulk().commit()

3. FabricUpdateBulk().commit(): when handling the above exception, update results before re-raising ValueError.

1. FabricUpdateBulk(). _can_fabric_be_deployed(): add unit test to verify behavior in the case where FabricSummary().refresh() raises a ControllerResponseError exception.

2. Update docstrings in other test cases to corrrect previously renamed method _can_be_deployed() which is now _can_fabric_be_deployed().

Subject: [PATCH 130/228] FabricUpdateCommon() remove unneeded checks, more...

1. FabricUpdateCommon()._fabric_needs_update(): Remove check for fabric existence since this is handling in the calling method FabricUpdateCommon()._build_payloads_to_commit()

2. FabricUpdateCommon()._build_payloads_to_commit(): change logic to allow outdent of remaining for-loop code.

3. FabricUpdateCommon()._config_save(): Remove bad update of self.config_save_result.  This is already updated earlier in this method, and the removed update was treating config_save_result as a boolean rather than a dict.

4. Cleanup some docstrings.

5. Remove a couple TODO items since the TODO's are not needed.

6. Remove some debug messages.

Subject: [PATCH 131/228] FabricUpdateBulk: Additional unit tests, more...

In test_fabric_update_bulk.py:

1. Add unit test for case where playbook config contains items that would NOT result in changes to the fabric config on the controller.

2. Add unit test for case where playbook config contains items that WOULD result in changes to the fabric config on the controller and where the fabric is not empty (so config_save and config_deploy are called).

+    -   Verify behavior when user requests to update a fabric and the
+        fabric exists on the controller and the payload contains
+        values that would result in changes to the fabric.
+    -   The fabric payload includes ANYCAST_GW_MAC, formatted to be incompatible
+        with the controller's requirements, but able to be fixed by
+        FabricUpdateCommon()._fixup_payloads_to_commit().
+    -   The fabric payload also contains keys that include ``bool`
+        and ``int`` values.
+    -   The fabric is not empty, so is also deployed/saved.
+
+    See Also
+    -   test_fabric_update_bulk_00031 for case where fabric is empty.
+
+    Code Flow
+    -   FabricUpdateBulk.payloads is set to contain one payload for a fabric
+        (f1) that exists on the controller.
+    -   The payload keys contain values that would result in changes to
+        the fabric.
+    -   FabricUpdateBulk.commit() calls
+        FabricUpdateCommon()._build_payloads_to_commit()
+    -   FabricUpdateCommon()._build_payloads_to_commit() calls
+        FabricDetails().refresh() which returns a dict with fabric f1
+        information and RETURN_CODE == 200
+    -   FabricUpdateCommon()._build_payloads_to_commit() sets 
+        _fabric_update_required to an empty set() and calls
+        FabricUpdateCommon()._fabric_needs_update() with the payload.
+    -   FabricUpdateCommon()._fabric_needs_update() updates compares the
+        payload to the fabric details and determines that changes are
+        required.  Hence, it adds True to _fabric_update_required.
+    -   FabricUpdateCommon()._build_payloads_to_commit() finds True in
+        _fabric_update_required and appends the payload to the
+        _payloads_to_commit list.
+    -   FabricUpdateBulk.commit() calls FabricUpdateCommon()._send_payloads()

+        FabricUpdateCommon()._can_fabric_be_deployed()
+    -   FabricUpdateCommon()._can_fabric_be_deployed() calls
+        FabricSummary().refresh() and then references
+        FabricSummary().fabric_is_empty to determine if the fabric is empty.
+        If the fabric is empty, it cannot be deployed, otherwise it can.
+        Hence, _can_fabric_be_deployed() returns either True or False.
+        In this testcase, the fabric is not empty, so _can_fabric_be_deployed()
+        returns True.

+        FabricUpdateCommon()._fixup_payloads_to_commit()

Subject: [PATCH 132/228] FabricUpdateBulk: Populate results.diff with payload
 actually sent to the controller (if any)

1. FabricUpdateBulk(). Previously, we were adding the original user payload to the result diff.  Modified the class to add the actual payload sent to the controller (if any) to the diff so that it's more evident what actually changed.  The actual payload consists of the user's playbook config minus any key/values that would not result in a change to the fabric.

2. Updated unit tests to assert on the key/values that are actually sent (based on the changes in #1 above).

Subject: [PATCH 147/228] Fix validate-modules issues

TODO: This is just placeholder documentation.  Need to modify and run a script to generate the actual documetation from the template.  But, this raises an issue... WHICH template?  If dcnm_fabric is supporting multiple fabric types, and they have different templates, which template do we use for the module documentation?

Subject: [PATCH 150/228] test_fabric_update_bulk.py: More unit tests, more...

This commit brings FabricUpdateBulk() coverage to 93%.

1. Updated testcase 00032 docstring to correct the Code Flow section.

2. Updated docstrings to add a Setup section for several other testcases to include a Setup section which explains why certain things are being set prior to running the test case.

3. Add the following test cases:

- test_fabric_update_bulk_00090: Verify _can_fabric_be_deployed() re-raises ``ValueError`` raised by FabricSummary().fabric_name

- test_fabric_update_bulk_00100: Verify _prepare_payload_value_for_comparison() returns appropriate values.

- test_fabric_update_bulk_00110: Verify FabricUpdateCommon()._send_payloads() catches and re-raises ``ValueError`` raised by FabricCommon()._fixup_payloads_to_commit()

I'd tried to avoid long line PEP8 error by breaking the template regex into multiple shorter lines, but must not have gotten it right.  Reverting to the single-line regex from the template for now.

Subject: [PATCH 163/228] VerifyPlaybookParams(): minor cleanup

- Remove unused Results import.

- Rename _build_properties() to _init_properties() since we are initializing the properties dict as well as populating it.

- config_controller.setter - use method_name in error message.

- __init__(): Alphabetize initialization of instance attributes.

Subject: [PATCH 165/228] VerifyPlaybookParams(): Additional unit tests

- test_verify_playbook_params_00050
    Summary
    -   Verify exception is not raised when the playbook contains all
        dependent parameters to satisfy the rule for user parameter.
    -   User parameter: REPLICATION_MODE == "Ingress"
    -   Dependent parameters:
        -   UNDERLAY_IS_V6 != True

test_verify_playbook_params_00060:
    Summary
    - Verify ``ValueError`` is raised when:
        -   Playbook does not contain adequate dependent parameters to
            satisfy the rule.
        -   Controller configuration does not contain adequate dependent
            parameters to satisfy the rule.
        -   Default values are not such that the rule is satisfied.

- test_verify_playbook_params_00070
    Summary

        -   Playbook does not contain adequate dependent parameters to
            satisfy the rule.
        -   Caller has indicated that the fabric does not yet exist (i.e.
            has set config_controller to None).
        -   Default values are not such that the rule is satisfied.

- test_verify_playbook_params_00080
    Summary
    - Verify ``ValueError`` is raised when:
        -   Playbook does not contain adequate dependent parameters to
            satisfy the rule.

Subject: [PATCH 166/228] VerifyPlaybookParams(): Add unit tests, more...

1. Forgot to add match criteria to pytest.raises() in two unit tests. Fixed.

2. Added the following unit tests:

- test_verify_playbook_params_00090
    Summary
    - Verify ``ValueError`` is raised when:
        -   Playbook contains a parameter with an invalid value.

- test_verify_playbook_params_00100
    - Verify ``ValueError`` is raised when:
        -   Playbook contains a parameter which accepts a boolean but the
            user provided 0 instead of False.

Subject: [PATCH 168/228] VerifyPlaybookParams: Add unit tests, more...

1. VerifyPlaybookParams().update_decision_set_for_or_rules() - Sort set() for the reasons given in the code comments.

2. Added the following unit tests:

- test_verify_playbook_params_00051
    Summary
    -   Verify ``ValueError`` is raised when commit() is called without having
        first set VerifyPlaybookParams().config_controller

- test_verify_playbook_params_00052
    Summary
    -   Verify ``ValueError`` is raised when commit() is called without having
        first set VerifyPlaybookParams().config_playbook

- test_verify_playbook_params_00053
    Summary
    -   Verify ``ValueError`` is raised when commit() is called without having
        first set VerifyPlaybookParams().template

- test_verify_playbook_params_00600
    Summary
    -   Verify update_decision_set_for_or_rules() raises ``ValueError`` when
        param_rule contains terms with more than one parameter.

Subject: [PATCH 169/228] VerifyPlaybookParams: Add unit tests, more...

1. Run VerifyPlaybookParams through black/isort/pylint

2. Added the following unit tests:

- test_verify_playbook_params_00700
    Summary
    -   Verify controller_param_is_valid() re-raises ``KeyError`` when
        self.eval_parameter_rule() raises ``KeyError``.

- test_verify_playbook_params_00710
    Summary
    -   Verify playbook_param_is_valid() re-raises ``KeyError`` when
        self.eval_parameter_rule() raises ``KeyError``.

- test_verify_playbook_params_00720
    Summary
    -   Verify default_param_is_valid() re-raises ``KeyError`` when
        self.eval_parameter_rule() raises ``KeyError``.

- test_verify_playbook_params_00800
    Summary
    -   Verify default_param_is_valid() returns None when the parameter
        has no default value.

Subject: [PATCH 170/228] Move ApiEndpoints().validate_fabric_name() to
 ConversionUtils()

validate_fabric_name() is used across several classes so it's more appropriate to reside in ConversionUtils().

Modified all classes where it's used to call ConversionUtils().validate_fabric_name() instead.

Modified all impacted unit tests to reflect the change.

Also:

ParamsValidate(): fixed minor typo in docstring.

Subject: [PATCH 171/228] Earlier payload validation, LAN_CLASSIC support,
 more...

Summary:

1. Catch invalid playbook fabric configs in get_want(), which is the earliest possible point to catch these.

2. Add LAN_CLASSIC fabric type to valid types.

NOTES
- These are interim changes to enable testing of LAN_CLASSIC.

- Discussed with Shangxin, who will provide a list of preferred FABRIC_TYPE names soon.

- Discussed with Shangxin, it would be best to use a fabric's template to try to get a list of mandatory keys for the fabric.  For now, we're using a dict, keyed on FABRIC_TYPE, with a static list of mandatory keys for each supported fabric type.  I'll look into using the template for this, but may leave this for a later version.

Change detail:

1. Move _verify_payload() to FabricCommon() and remove from both FabricCreateCommon() and FabricUpdateCommon().

2. FabricCommon()._verify_payload(): Reject bad FABRIC_NAME using ConversionUtils().validate_fabric_name()

3. FabricCommon(): Change _mandatory_payload_keys from a set() to a dict keyed on FABRIC_TYPE.

4. FabricCreateCommon()._verify_payload(): removed

5. FabricCreateCommon()__init__(): remove _mandatory_payload_keys

6. FabricUpdateCommon()._verify_payload(): removed

7. FabricUpdateCommon()__init__(): remove _mandatory_payload_keys

8. dcnm_fabric.py, get_want() - Add call to _verify_payload()

9. dcnm_fabric.py, Merged().get_need() - Remove validation of FABRIC_NAME and FABRIC_TYPE since these are validated in Common().get_want() now.

10. dcnm_fabric, Merged().__init__(): remove _fabric_type_to_template_name dict since this functionality resides in method FabricCommon().fabric_type_to_template_name()

11. RuleSet(): remove __init__() method since it's inherited from RuleSetCommon().

12. Update all unit tests to reflect the above changes.

Subject: [PATCH 173/228] Add FabricTypes() class as single source of truth for
 fabric types

1. Added FabricTypes() class, which contains properties to retrieve various information about fabric types.  This currently includes:

   - Associated template names
   - Mandatory playbook parameters
   - Set of supported fabric type names

2. FabricTypes(): Add unit tests

3. Remove unit test test_fabric_create_common_00031, since this is now covered in item 2 above.

4. FabricUpdateCommon()._set_fabric_update_endpoint(): Leverage FabricTypes() to retrieve template_name.

5. FabricCreateCommon()._set_fabric_update_endpoint(): Leverage FabricTypes() to retrieve template_name.

6. FabricCommon()._init__(): remove all code related to initialization of fabric_type information.

7. FabricCommon().fabric_type.setter: leverage FabricTypes().valid_fabric_types in error message.

Subject: [PATCH 180/228] FabricCommon(): Remove unused methods, finish unit
 tests.

1. FabricCommon(): The following methods are no longer used, so have been removed:
    - _handle_response()
    - _handle_unknown_request_verbs()
    - _handle_get_response()
    - _handle_post_put_delete_response()

2. FabricCommon(): Deleted unit tests for the above methods and updated unit test docstrings.

3. Added the following unit tests:

- test_fabric_common_00021
    Summary
    - Verify ``ValueError`` is raised when BGP_AS fails regex validation.

- test_fabric_common_00111
    Summary
    -   Verify FabricCommon()_verify_payload() returns if state != "merged".

- test_fabric_common_00112
    Summary
    - Verify ``ValueError`` is raised when BGP_AS fails regex validation.

- test_fabric_common_00113
    Summary
    - Verify ``ValueError`` is raised when FABRIC_TYPE is invalid.

4. FabricCreate()._verify_payload(): update unit test to match error message.

5. FabricCreateBulk()._verify_payload(): update unit test to match error message.

Subject: [PATCH 185/228] ParamInfo(): Fix breaking issue and other
 improvements.

1. ParamInfo()_get_default(): Breaking issue for replaced state.  Was converting parameters with "string" type to int().  This broke two parameters (ISIS_AREA_NUM and MPLS_ISIS_AREA_NUM) whose default values are (string) "0001".  Converting this to int() resulted in default value of 1, which did not match the controller config, causing replaced state to fail.

2. Part of above fix, add return value of ParamInfo()._get_type() to ParamInfo().info dict.

3. ParamInto()._get_internal(): new method to retrieve whether a parameter is internal or not.  Used in FabricReplacedCommon()._fabric_needs_update() to skip internal parameters.

4. Improve several method docstrings.

Subject: [PATCH 187/228] FabricCommon() and FabricUpdateCommon(): refactor

1. A couple methods are required by both FabricUpdateCommon() and FabricReplacedCommon(), which will be committed soon.  Refactor these methods into FabricCommon().  These methods are:

- _prepare_payload_value_for_comparison() (renamed to _prepare_parameter_value_for_comparison())
- _prepare_anycast_gw_mac_for_comparison()

2. FabricUpdateCommon().successful_fabric_payloads:  Remove this unused var.

3. FabricUpdateCommon(): Modify message when no fabrics need to be updated to distinguish it from the same replaced-state message.  "No fabrics to update." changed to "No fabrics to update for merged state."

4. Update unit tests to reflect the above changes.

Subject: [PATCH 188/228] Initial support for replaced state.  Caveats...

1. FabricReplacedCommon() and FabricReplacedBulk(): new classes to support replaced state.

2. dcnm_fabric.py Replaced(): Add new class to support replaced state, and update documentation to include replaced in state.choices.

3. dcnm_fabric.py: Update main() to instantiate Replaced() and call Replaced().commit() when state is replaced.

4. Caveats:
- We are currently not validating parameters in the resulting payload for replaced state.  We'll add this validation early this coming week.  See commented code in dcnm_fabric.py Merged().get_need() for the required changes.

Subject: [PATCH 191/228] FabricReplacedCommon: add parameter verification,
 refactor

1. FabricReplacedCommon(). _final_payload_verification():  New method to verify parameters and inter-parameter dependencies on the final payload(s).

2. dcnm_fabric.py Replaced(): remove commented code.  This functionality was added to FabricReplacedCommon(). _final_payload_verification() in item 1 above.

3. FabricReplacedCommon(): renamed _fabric_needs_update() to _fabric_needs_update_for_replaced_state() to make explicit that this method is not the same code as similarly-named method in FabricUpdateCommon().

4. FabricUpdateCommon(): renamed _fabric_needs_update() to _fabric_needs_update_for_merged_state() to make explicit that this method is not the same code as similarly-named method in FabricReplacedCommon().

5. FabricCommon()._can_fabric_be_deployed(): This is common code shared by FabricUpdateCommon() and FabricReplacedCommon().  Refactoring to move it into FabricCommon().

6. VerifyPlaybookParams(): remove unused method_name var.

7. Update unit tests to reflect above changes.

Subject: [PATCH 192/228] VerifyPlaybookParams(): Remove call to
 reject_boolean_string() for now.

VerifyPlaybookParams().reject_boolean_string() is rejecting boolean strings in the payload (where they are valid, e.g. FabricReplacedCommon() modifies the payload based on the template, and this modification is inserting boolean strings into the payload).  This method was originally intended to reject boolean strings in the user's playbook only.   Commenting this out for now and may move it later to a method that only acts on the user's playbook.

Subject: [PATCH 196/228] FabricCommon(): move shared code to this class.

1. FabricUpdateCommon() and FabricReplacedCommon() shared a lot of code.  This commit consolidates this shared code into FabricUpdateCommon().

2. FabricReplacedCommon()._ self.update_replaced_playload(): Renamed to self.update_replaced_payload()

3. FabricReplacedCommon(). _build_payloads_to_commit(): Renamed to _build_payloads_for_replaced_state()

4. FabricUpdateCommon(). _build_payloads_to_commit(): Renamed to _build_payloads_for_merged_state()

5. test_fabric_update_bulk.py: Fix docstrings to match the above refactoring and method renaming.

Subject: [PATCH 201/228] FabricCommon(): leverage FabricConfigDeploy() and
 FabricConfigSave()

1. FabricCommon(): remove code that implemented config-deploy and config-save and use FabricConfigDeploy() and FabricConfigSave() instead.

2. Organize __init__() a little better.

3. Remove import that is no longer needed.

4. Remove debug messages that are no longer needed.

Subject: [PATCH 207/228] Guard against deploying read-only and frozen fabrics

Guard against deploying fabrics with either DEPLOYMENT_FREEZE == True or IS_READ_ONLY == True.

Previously, we were collecting fabrics to be config-saved and config-deployed prior to pushing their config changes.  And we were not checking DEPLOYMENT_FREEZE or IS_READ_ONLY values.

Changes for the above entailed:

1. Don't collect fabrics to be config-deployed prior to pushing their new configs (since the new configs may enable either DEPLOYMENT_FREEZE or IS_READ_ONLY).

2. Instead, we now do the following:

a. push the configs for all fabrics that have changes.
b. config-save the fabrics
c. config-deploy each fabric only after refreshing FabricDetailsByName() and verifying that both DEPLOYMENT_FREEZE and IS_READ_ONLY are False.

3. Update all test cases to reflect the above changes.

4. FabricConfigDeploy(): Add properties for fabric_details and fabric_summary so that all verifications regarding whether a fabric is deployable are done within this class.

Subject: [PATCH 208/228] ParamInfo()._build_properties(): rename to
 _init_properties()

We've standardized the following:
   - _build_properties() only populates an existing properties dict.
   - _init_properties() initializes a properties dict (and potentially populates it).

Subject: [PATCH 212/228] FabricConfigSave() / FabricConfigDeploy() changes

Due to issues found while writing integration tests, am modifying behavior of:

FabricConfigSave()
FabricConfigDeploy()

There were two problems with these:

1. They were called regardless of the value of the value of the playbook DEPLOY parameter.

2. They were not granular in their intepretation of "failed" when setting results.

To solve 1 above, we now pass the payload to each class, rather than just the fabric_name.  If DEPLOY is False (or missing), both classes set result to success and provide a message indicating that config-save, config-deploy were skipped due to the DEPLOY setting.

To solve 2 above, we track (within each class) what specifically caused config-save or config-deploy to be skipped.  If these were skipped due to errors, we set results accordingly and provide a message describing the failure in the response.

All unit tests are updated to reflect the above changes.

Subject: [PATCH 214/228] FabricConfigSave().commit(): Fix guard conditional,
 more...

1. FabricConfigSave().commit(): An earlier commit changed FabricConfigSave() to accept the payload via a payload property.  In commit(), the guard conditional was not also changed to test that payload is set.  Fixed.

2. 1. FabricConfigSave(): Fix usage in docstring.

3. FabricConfigDeploy(): Fix docstrings.

4. dcnm_fabric.py Merged().commit(): Fix docstring.

5. test_fabric_config_save.py: Update unit tests to reflect change in 1 above.

Subject: [PATCH 216/228] ParamInfo().parameter(): Improve error message.

1. Improved error message explain why the user might have encountered the error.

Changed from:

"Parameter {value} not found in self.info."

To:

"Parameter {value} not found in fabric template. This likely means that the parameter {value} is not appropriate for the fabric type."

2. Add a unit test for the above change.

Subject: [PATCH 217/228] RuleSet().refresh(): was not resetting self.ruleset
 prior to updating it.

Caught in integration tests.  The playbook below would fail, as it should.  BUT for the wrong reason.  The reason given was:

"ParamInfo.parameter: Parameter UNDERLAY_IS_V6 not found in fabric template. This means that either the parameter UNDERLAY_IS_V6, or a parameter that is dependent on UNDERLAY_IS_V6, is not appropriate for the fabric type."

The actual reason is that SUBNET_TARGET_MASK is not a valid parameter for LAN_CLASSIC fabric.

The reason that the message is wrong is because RuleSet() was not resetting self.ruleset when refresh() was called.  For the scenario below, this resulted in the following:

1. RuleSet() was updated for VXLAN_EVPN fabric template and the VXLAN_EVPN params were validated.

2. RuleSet() was updated for LAN_CLASSIC fabric template (but not initialized/result, so it still contained the keys from VXLAN_EVPN fabric, which include SUBNET_TARGET_MASK).

As a result of 2, SUBNET_TARGET_MASK parameter in the LAN_CLASSIC fabric playbook config was matched against the remnents of the VXLAN_EVPN template, which resulted in the above misleading error.

The fix is to reset the ruleset in RuleSet().refresh() prior to updating it with the new template.

We now get the correct error for the playbook below, which is:

"FabricUpdateBulk._fabric_needs_update_for_merged_state: Invalid key: SUBNET_TARGET_MASK found in payload for fabric LAN_CLASSIC_Fabric"

    tasks:
        - cisco.dcnm.dcnm_fabric:
            state: merged
            config:
            -   FABRIC_NAME: VXLAN_EVPN_Fabric

Also, cleaned up pylint line-too-long in debug message.

+#    - dcnm_fabric_name_1
+#    - dcnm_fabric_name_2
+#    - dcnm_fabric_name_3
+# TEST
+# 4. Create fabrics with non-default configs and verify result
+#    - dcnm_fabric_name_1
+#    - dcnm_fabric_name_1
+#    - dcnm_fabric_name_1
+# 5. Replace configs for fabric_1 and fabric_2 and verify result

+# Test merge of new fabric configurations and verify results.
+# Test config-save and config-deploy on populated fabrics.
+# - VXLAN_EVPN_MSD fabric not tested.
+# - See dcnm_fabric_merged_basic.yaml for VXLAN_EVPN_MSD test.
+# - config-save and config-deploy are tested.
+# - See dcnm_fabric_merged_basic.yaml for quicker test without save/deploy.

+# STEPS
+################################################################################
+# SETUP
+################################################################################
+# 1. The following fabrics must be empty on the controller (or not exist).
+#    See vars: section in cisco/dcnm/playbooks/dcnm_tests.yaml
+#    - fabric_name_1
+#    - fabric_type_1  # VXLAN_EVPN
+#    - fabric_name_3
+#    - fabric_type_3  # LAN_CLASSIC
+# 2. Delete fabrics under test, if they exist
+#    - fabric_name_1
+#    - fabric_name_3
+################################################################################
+# TEST
+################################################################################
+# 3. Create fabrics and verify result
+#    - fabric_name_1
+#    - fabric_name_3
+# 4. Add switch to each fabric and verify result
+# 5. Merge additional configs into each fabric and verify result
+#    This step includes config-save and config-deploy
+################################################################################
+# CLEANUP
+################################################################################
+# 7. Delete fabrics under test
+#    - fabric_name_1
+#    - fabric_name_3

+# DESCRIPTION - FABRIC REPLACED STATE TEST with SAVE and DEPLOY
+#
+# Test merge of new fabric configurations and verify results.
+# Test config-save and config-deploy on populated fabrics.
+# - VXLAN_EVPN_MSD fabric not tested.
+# - See dcnm_fabric_merged_basic.yaml for VXLAN_EVPN_MSD test.
+# - config-save and config-deploy are tested.
+# - See dcnm_fabric_merged_basic.yaml for quicker test without save/deploy.

+# STEPS
+################################################################################
+# SETUP
+################################################################################
+# 1. The following fabrics must be empty on the controller (or not exist).
+#    See vars: section in cisco/dcnm/playbooks/dcnm_tests.yaml
+#    - fabric_name_1
+#    - fabric_type_1  # VXLAN_EVPN
+#    - fabric_name_3
+#    - fabric_type_3  # LAN_CLASSIC
+# 2. Delete fabrics under test, if they exist
+#    - fabric_name_1
+#    - fabric_name_3
+################################################################################
+# TEST
+################################################################################
+# 3. Create fabrics and verify result
+#    - fabric_name_1
+#    - fabric_name_3
+# 4. Add switch to each fabric and verify result
+# 5. Merge additional configs into each fabric and verify result
+#    This step includes config-save and config-deploy
