Red Hat Satellite engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on Satellite to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "Satellite project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs will be migrated starting at the end of May. If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "Satellite project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/SAT-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description tbrodbec 2015-01-27 15:07:59 UTC 
Description of problem: When a puppet module is uploaded into satellite, the author of the module is not set to the "Author" specified in metadata.json.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 6.x


How reproducible: Consistent


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create module and specify "Author" in metadata.json
2. Upload module
3. View module

Actual results: Module author is set to package name, not "Author"


Expected results: The author should be set based on the "Author" field in metadata.json.

Comment 3 tbrodbec 2015-01-28 15:11:20 UTC 
https://docs.puppetlabs.com/puppet/latest/reference/modules_publishing.html#fields-in-metadatajson

DEPRECATED

    checksums— File checksums generated by the Puppet module tool as part of puppet module build. You should remove this field from your metadata.json.
    description — Legacy field used to describe the purpose of the module. You should use the summary field instead.
    types — Resource type documentation generated by the Puppet module tool as part of puppet module build. You should remove this field from your metadata.json.


Satellite uses "description" instead of "Summary" for displaying information about the modules uploaded to satellite.  The "Summary" field should be used instead.

Verified in Satellite 6.3 snap 5, the author shows up correctly in the web UI both for a puppetforge and a custom module, see the attached screenshot.
