Description

This is an RFE to include host build status in hammer so it can be queried. We rely heavily on data available from querying hammer cli for the QUADS¹ project.
Currently these items can be queried via the API but it would be wonderful to have this in hammer as well.

build_status_label

Just adding here, very interested in testing this and getting in place, we rely¹ a lot on hammer return values for QUADS² as Foreman is an integral part of our project.

Subject changed from Display Foreman Build Status in Hammer CLI to Display host status in Hammer CLI
Priority changed from Normal to High
Difficulty set to trivial

We should display all available statuses in hammer host info and the global status in hammer host list.

At the moment it's fine to hardcode the fields in hammer but in future we should find a way of extending the status list from plugins (could be done on API level too, maybe even better to have it there).

API returns following:

"global_status" => 0,
"global_status_label" => "Warning",
"configuration_status" => 0,
"configuration_status_label" => "No reports",
"global_status" => 0,
"global_status_label" => "Error",
"build_status" => 2,
"build_status_label" => "Token expired",

openscap and rex adds their custom statuses, if the api for registering new status from plugin is not too hard, I think it would be good to add it right away

Thanks for updating this RFE, we've worked around this not being in
Hammer via some Python API calls directly that Marek suggested which works for now:

(our use case)

We are doing simple queries via existing, automated RBAC roles/filters
we create for each of our Engineering groups so they query their own
set of assigned systems for build status and then we gate our systems
validation off of a successful build=0 status (in our case that would
mean that it kickstarted and reported back to Foreman successfully).
