Description Tomas Strachota 2015-03-12 14:44:09 UTC
Arrays in key-value parameters currently can't contain spaces which is a bit unintuitive. Parsing of the following:
<pre>
hammer host create --parameters packages='[vim, tmux]'
</pre>

results in:
<pre>
{"packages"=>["vim", " tmux"]}
</pre>
Note the additional leading space in tmux.

Also
<pre>
hammer host create --parameters formula='a=b+1'
</pre>
gets parsed wrongly as:
<pre>
{"formula=a"=>"b+1"}
</pre>
but it's a minor issue.

Failed on: Satellite-6.1.0-RHEL-7-20150406.0

Steps:

1. Created dependent entities
2. Tried to create a host passing the parameters: `--parameters "packages=[vim, tmux]"`

Comment 10 sthirugn@redhat.com 2015-08-14 20:47:51 UTC
Accidentally closed with 6.1.1 errata

Comment 12 Marek Hulan 2016-06-06 14:10:22 UTC
Verified.

Version Tested:
satellite-6.2.0-14.2.el7sat.noarch

Both problems are solved, I can create packages='[vim, tmux]' and formula='a=b+1' parameters, in the first case the space is omitted, in second case the equalsign is part of the value.
