The
TemplateDeploymentService#get_template
method currently tries to generate and return aDeploymentTemplate
model object. However, this is problematic because a template can contain arbitrary text that our base model cannot translate into a real Ruby constant.Consequently, this method has been altered to just return a plain JSON string instead of a model object. While this technically breaks backwards compatibility, the reality is that this method is likely unused in the wild since it's just a matter of time before it fails, and that the raw JSON is what people are after anyway. ~~~That said, I have left the
DeploymentTemplate
model in the code for those people who may want to try and convert it to an object on their own.~~~Addresses https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1434988
