* Add --installroot to YUM and DNF modules, issue #11310
This continues ansible-modules-core#1558, and
ansible-modules-core#1669
Allow specifying installroot for the yum and dnf modules
to install and remove packages in a location other than /.
* Remove empty aliases
* Simpler installroot set default logic
* Add a encode() to AnsibleVaultEncryptedUnicode
Without it, calling encode() on it results in a bytestring
of the encrypted !vault-encrypted string.
ssh connection plugin triggers this if ansible_password
is from a var using !vault-encrypted. That path ends up
calling .encode() instead of using the __str__.
Fixes#19795
* Fix str.encode() errors on py2.6
py2.6 str.encode() does not take keyword arguments.
* Refactoring: split readkeys() into readfile() and parsekeys()
* Refactoring: split writekeys() into writefile() and serialize()
* authorized_key: support --diff
* Refactoring: remove no-longer used readkeys()/writekeys()
* Integration test for authorized_key in check mode
Support for the Google API and GCloud-Python Clients have been added.
The three libraries:
* GCloud-Python: A new function, get_google_cloud_credentials, should be used. The credentials-object returned can be passed to any gcloud-python client. Using this client library requires in the installation of gcloud-python. This is preferred library for new modules.
* Google API: A new function, gcp_api_auth, should be used to take advantage of services requiring this client. This client library should be used if the desired functionality is not available in GCloud-Python. Using this library requires the installation of google-api-python-client.
* libcloud: Existing function, gcp_connect, should be used. The interface and return values have not changed and existing modules (such as gce, gce_pd and gce_net) should work without modification. Note that the credentials-fetching code has been refactored out of gcp_connect so that can be reused by all connection functions. To use this function, apache-libcloud must be installed.
Import guards have been added and will only be trigger if a user tries to use a function that is missing dependencies.
Credential-specifying mechanisms (i.e, ansible module params, env vars and libcloud secrets.py) have not changed. They have been refactored and unit tests have been added to allow for changes going forward. We are deprecating (and removing in a subsequent release) the ability to specify credentials via the libcloud secrets file. Also, we have deprecated (and also plan to remove in a subsequent release) the ability to use a p12 pem file for a key - the JSON format is strongly preferred. Deprecation warnings have been added for both of these issues (see the Ansible docs on how to disable deprecation warnings).
The gce_tag module can support updating tags on multiple instances via an instance_pattern field. Full Python regex is supported in the instance_pattern field.
'instance_pattern' and 'instance_name' are mutually exclusive and one must be specified.
The integration test for the gce_tag module has been updated to support the instance_pattern parameter. Unit tests have been added to test the list-manipulation functionality.
Run the integration test with:
TEST_FLAGS='--tags "test_gce_tag"' make gce
Run the unit tests with:
python test/units/modules/cloud/google/test_gce_tag.py
This plugin can be used with the lpass cli interface for lastpass.
[lastpass-cli](https://github.com/lastpass/lastpass-cli)
Example:
Add a lookup to your playbooks/variables somewhere:
```
some_variable: "{{ lookup('lastpass','Some Lastpass entry name or ID', field='username') }}"
```
Usage:
* start a lpass session prior to using ansible
* run ansible
* logout when finished
```
lpass login user@domain.com
ansible-playbook foo.yml
lpass logout
```
An inner single-quote pair breaks out of the outer single-quote
pair. Rather than escaping the inner quotes to protect against
this, just use the fact that `str()` is equivalent to `""`.
* Initial Commit for Infinidat Ansible Modules

Import AnsibleModule only from ansible.module_utils.basic in all modules
Skip python 2.4 tests for module_utils/infinibox.py
Documentation and code cleanup
Rewrite examples in multiline format
Misc Changes
Test
* Add Infinibox modules to CHANGELOG.md
* Add ANSIBLE_METADATA to all modules
Since we no longer use a post-validated task in _process_pending_results, we
need to be sure to template fields used in original_task as they are raw and
may contain variables.
This patch also moves the handler tracking to be per-uuid, not per-object.
Doing it per-object had implications for the above due to the fact that the
copy of the original task is now being used, so the only sure way is to track
based on the uuid instead.
Fixes#18289
Print out the data that fails to validate when doing
schema checking on modules
This allows easier interpretation of error messages.
From:
```
ERROR: DOCUMENTATION.notes.2: expected basestring
```
To:
```
ERROR: DOCUMENTATION.notes.2: expected basestring @ data['notes'][2].
Got {"As with C(include) this task can be static or dynamic, If static
it implies that it won't need templating nor loops nor conditionals and
will show included tasks in the --list options. Ansible will try to
autodetect what is needed, but you can set `static": 'yes|no` at task
level to control this.'}
```
* Code smell test for iteritems and itervalues
* Change the keydict object in authorized_keys so it doesn't throw a false postive
keydict is a bad data structure anyway. We don't use the iteritems and
itervalues methods so just disable them so that the code-smell tests do
not trigger on it.
* Change release templates so they work with py3
* Fix UnboundLocalError remote_head in git
Fixes#5505
The use of remote_head was a leftover of #4562.
remote_head is not necessary, since the repo is unchanged anyway and
after is set correctly.
Further changes:
* Set changed=True and msg once local_mods are detected and reset.
* Remove need_fetch that is always True (due to previous if) to improve
clarity
* Don't exit early for local_mods but run submodules update and
switch_version
* Add test for git with local modifications
