20:00:52 <jhawkesworth> :-)
20:01:07 <briantist> hi hi
20:01:09 <nitzmahone> only thing on the agenda is your email change PR
20:01:20 <nitzmahone> Hey briantist!
20:01:27 <jhawkesworth> hey briantist
20:01:43 <nitzmahone> jhawkesworth: the PR looks fine to me
20:02:22 <jhawkesworth> thanks, finally got some time to get module dev set up again.
20:02:24 <nitzmahone> (merged)
20:02:29 <jhawkesworth> thanks for the merge
20:02:32 <nitzmahone> #topic open floor
20:02:56 <jhawkesworth> is there some known good version you need to use to run windows integration tests at the moment?
20:03:21 <jborean93> what in particular are you checking the version for?
20:03:24 <nitzmahone> of ansible-base, or ?
20:03:33 <jhawkesworth> yeah of ansible base
20:04:08 <jhawkesworth> I am using latest devel for ansible base but I'm having trouble resolving collections by the looks of things
20:04:17 <nitzmahone> hrm
20:04:30 <nitzmahone> did you install them to ~/.ansible/collections or someplace else?
20:04:47 <nitzmahone> Should work the same between devel or rc3/top of stable-2.10
20:05:58 <jhawkesworth> I put somewhere else and have added that location to ansible collection location
20:06:17 <nitzmahone> The forensics/error cases for collections stuff has definitely improved, but it's still not super easy to track down when something's not working the way you think it should :(
20:06:23 <jhawkesworth> trying to test win_xml which is in community.windows but its failing to find win_template which is in ansible.windows
20:06:34 <jborean93> have you installed both collections?
20:06:40 <jborean93> or really just ansible.windows
20:06:54 <jhawkesworth> yeah i cloned the git repos of both in the end
20:07:10 <jborean93> where did you clone it to, the path can be quite important but hard to get right
20:07:23 <briantist> ^ very much this
20:07:30 <jhawkesworth> ah ok so...
20:07:37 <nitzmahone> tis why the install from git thing is so nice now :)
20:07:57 <jborean93> yep, thanks shertel for implementing that
20:08:03 <briantist> ++++
20:08:57 <jhawkesworth> ah I am probably stuck in my 2018 ways
20:09:45 <jhawkesworth> so top level of where I cloned to is /home/jon/ansible/ansible_collections
20:09:59 <jhawkesworth> https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/FkwruGeF/
20:10:13 <nitzmahone> there's your problem
20:10:31 <nitzmahone> you'd have to clone to `windows` under ansible and community respectively
20:10:40 <nitzmahone> (it's a python package path)
20:11:01 <jhawkesworth> oh right I will give that a whirl
20:11:16 <nitzmahone> (or just rename each of those dirs to `windows` should be sufficient
20:12:32 <jhawkesworth> yay! I'm up and running
20:12:33 <jhawkesworth> thank you
20:12:37 <nitzmahone> woot!
20:13:56 <jhawkesworth> great well now I can plug away at the win_xml open issues.  I think I have some fixes already but I will slather it with tests
20:14:37 <nitzmahone> yay!
20:15:17 <nitzmahone> well, if nothing else exciting for today, I'll close in 2
20:15:49 <jhawkesworth> nothing else from me right now
20:17:34 <jborean93> I'm good
20:17:37 <nitzmahone> OK then- til next week... Thanks all!
