Feature Overview

Implement the option to provide the subscription manifest as a configmap on the AutomationController CRD for fully automated deployment.

E.g.:

• Customer creates ConfigMap
• Customer adds the following to the spec file:

  spec:
    manifest_file: <configmap-name>

• The operator automatically makes a POST to the right endpoint with the manifest file contents when deploying

  Background

Currently, after the AutomationController CRD is properly applied, the customer must manually import the subscription manifest or authenticate with username and password in the license page.

Use Cases

Fully automated AAP deployment using the Platform Operator

Assumptions

• possible to perform the same task with the controller ansible collection tower_license module

• Same can be achieved by making a post request to /api/v2/config with the manifest.zip as a base64-encoded line.
