Description
SUMMARY
This would be a new module to manage domains. Interface would be exactly analogous to postgresql.ext, postgresql.schema, or many others that manage create, drop and alter other major postgres objects
ISSUE TYPE
- Feature Idea
COMPONENT NAME
postgresql_domain
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
There is currently no easy or obvious way to manage domains idempotently in ansible playbooks, the way there now is for tables, schemas, extensions, etc.
Domains are a puzzling exception to the wonderful way almost all other postgres objects can be managed in ansible. Without this, a developer will have to fall back on raw queries through the query module, and manage idempotence manually
