Using an empty string
fatal: [OMEM]: FAILED! => {"ansible_facts": {"discovered_interpreter_python": "/usr/bin/python3"}, "changed": false, "msg": "argument 'disabled_button_lcd_override_pin' is of type <class 'str'> found in 'chassis_power_button'. and we were unable to convert to int: <class 'str'> cannot be converted to an int"}

Steps to Reproduce

Change the value between 000000 - 099999
disabled_button_lcd_override_pin: 000000

Expected Behavior

The OME-M Web Gui allows a PIN between 000000-999999. Expected behaviour is to have value 001100 as a PIN.

Actual Behavior

The playbook errors when you try to have a PIN less than 100000 and it has a 0 in front.

@an0wak, thank you for submitting this bug. We will check and accordingly update. From what I see in the code, the disabled_button_lcd_override_pin argument has the type defined as int and that could be a reason it might be treating 000000 as just 0. Changing the module argument type to string might fix it but we need to check the API first.

[an0wak]

I have tested API and that takes a "string" of 6 decimal characters

[anupamaloke]

@an0wak, thank you for confirming it. While we try to take a look at our end, meanwhile, could you may be try changing the argument type to str and try it once?

[an0wak]

changing it to string is not a problem - it also needs regexp check to see if they are digits... Still new to Githubs and ansibles workings.

[anupamaloke]

@an0wak, could you please may be try with following changes:

• Change disabled_button_lcd_override_pin argument type to str:

  Line# 420:

          "disabled_button_lcd_override_pin": {"type": "str", "required": False, "no_log": True}} 
  

• Add below import statement to import re before line # 258:
  import re

• Before Line#462, add a check to make sure that the pin contains all digits:

  # make sure that the LCD override pin is 6 digits in total and within range 000000-999999
  chassis_power_button = module.params.get('chassis_power_button')
  if chassis_power_button:
     disabled_button_lcd_override_pin = chassis_power_button.get('disabled_button_lcd_override_pin')
     if disabled_button_lcd_override_pin:
         if re.match("^[0-9]{6,6}$", disabled_button_lcd_override_pin):
             if 999999 < int(disabled_button_lcd_override_pin) < 0:
                 module.fail_json(msg="LCD override pin must be 6 digits long and within range 000000-999999.")
         else:
             module.fail_json(msg="LCD override pin must be 6 digits long and within range 000000-999999.")
