Distinguished event when minion firstly connects with auto_accept: true

[mruepp]

Description of Issue/Question

We need to run an orchestrator on the first minion start event.
We run a reactor on salt key accept events. But we want to set auto_accept to true on the master and in that case, no salt key events are published.

Is there any way how we can trigger a reactor on the first key accept with the auto_accept option to true?

when i set auto_accept adn a minion is accept automatically i see this event:

(salt-py2) ➜  ~ sudo salt-run state.event pretty=True                                                                                                                              
salt/auth       {                                                                                                                                                                  
    "_stamp": "2018-10-25T15:59:25.983964",                                                                                                                                        
    "act": "accept",                                                                                                                                                               
    "id": "the_cake_is_a_lie",                       

You should be able to react off of that event?

[mruepp]

Unfortunately, that event triggers on every minion connect, restart, etc. We do quite heavy lifting in the primer orch so to run it on this event would trigger on every minion upgrade, sys reboot

@mruepp I had this same issue I ended up having my reactor accept the key on minion first connect.

Reactor

{% if data['act'] == 'pend' %}
accept_key:
  wheel.key.accept:
    - match: {{ data['id'] }}

#Other stuff you want to do on first connect. 
{% endif %}

[mruepp]

Indeed thats the best solution. But generally asking nonetheless, shouldn´t be a dedicated event raised if minion gets accepted by auto_accept?

[Ch3LL]

i think we could probably add an event there as well.
