#ansible-meeting: Public Core Meeting

Meeting summary

1. 1. https://github.com/ansible/community/issues/120 (gundalow, 19:14:20)
   
   
2. Do we want the basic auth api reading from environment variables (gundalow, 19:14:44)
   1. Modules using basic_auth from module_utils may read settings from environment modules but must use non-generic environment variables (like API_MODULENAME_USERNAME). Using generic things like API_USERNAMAE would conflict between modules. (abadger1999, 19:23:25)
   2. ACTION: abadger1999 will add an entry for basic auth answer to developing_modules (abadger1999, 19:25:43)
   
   
3. Include vars updated to work with directories https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/17207 (gundalow, 19:26:31)
   1. https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/17207 (gundalow, 19:26:35)
   2. ACTION: abadger1999 will merge 17207 after the meeting (abadger1999, 19:48:18)
   
   
4. "Should we write facts modules that are targetting external devices?" (abadger1999, 19:48:28)
   
5. Archive module: archive vs simple compression https://github.com/ansible/ansible-modules-extras/pull/2323#issuecomment-237360607 (abadger1999, 20:05:30)
