Can you paste a screenshot as well?

Since this has been changed from closed to assigned does that mean that we're on the same page now and that this is going to be looked into?

Is this issue more complicated than it appears on the surface? I realize that there is a finite amount of time but I've watched this get pushed out several times already and it seems like it wouldn't be that complicated to fix. Is there some additional information I can provide or testing I can do to help get this resolved?

Jason,

We know what needs to change, but its just been "on the back burner" due to some more important issues that have taken precedent. We will get to it soon, thanks for the reminder.

Turns out this is pretty easy to work around via API calls if anyone else is interested:

import getpass
import requests

apiUser = 'admin'
apiPass = getpass.getpass()
apiAuth = requests.auth.HTTPBasicAuth(apiUser, apiPass)
apiURL = 'https://katello.host.org/katello/api/content_views'

cvID = 15
modName = 'mymod'
modAuthor = 'myauthor'

postData = {
    'content_view_id': cvID,
    'name': modName,
    'author': modAuthor
}

response = requests.post(
    '{}/{}/content_view_puppet_modules'.format(apiURL, cvID),
    json=postData,
    auth=apiAuth,
    verify=False
)

Just replace the values for apiUser, apiURL (the host name portion), cvID (content view ID), modName, and modAuthor.

With verify=False you will get the following warning based on your Python version:

/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/urllib3/connectionpool.py:769: InsecureRequestWarning: Unverified HTTPS request is being made. Adding certificate verification is strongly advised. See: https://urllib3.readthedocs.org/en/latest/security.html
  InsecureRequestWarning)

If everything worked response.status_code should be 200 (and your module will show up in your content view).

Once it is in your content view you can manage the module version from the web UI.
