Submit button alternative functionality.

[nikos445]

Feature Request:

• Add extra functionality/options for submit button.

Options / Functionality:

• Trigger Webhooks instead of ansible playbook / awx / etc.

Example use case:

• Trigger Jenkins Generic Webhook by executing POST HTTP request (http://example.com/test-url-path) and passing body in JSON format (extravars)

I already implemented with Webhook in ansible playbook that is saved internally to persistent volume :) but i thought that it would be a great feature to add in the ansible forms. It will enhance its ability to trigger ansible playbooks in jenkins not only AWX

Additionally, i found an issue that if you execute playbook locally, some extravars, are not passed. E.g. jobid

Can you make that a separate thread ?

i totally understand. So instead of ansible and awx, a custom endpoint, perhaps using fnRestAdvanced. Would not be a bad idea, let's reopen this.

Please also consider the ability to disable submit button if required fields are not fulfilled (not being able to click it instead of evaluating the fields and showing error)

I will probably add the submit option to an expression. Allow you to capture the extravars and do what you want. REST post, store, ftp, ... many options would become possible. Perhaps some sort of "plugin". I'll have to thing this through. let me know if you have ideas of your own
