* win async: use async_dir for the async results file directory
* tried to unify POSIX and PowerShell async implementations of async_dir
* fix sanity issue
* Fix targets that may be a list containing strings and lists which worked prior to 2.6.
* Add ec2_group integration tests for lists of nested targets
* changelog
* Add diff mode support for lists of targets containing strings and lists.
* win_script: add support for become and centralise exec wrapper builder
* satisfying the pep8 gods
* do not scan for module dependencies when running as a script
* expect ssh_key_data to be a string instead of path
ssh_key_data should be a string filled with the private key
the old behavior can be archived with a lookup
Fixes#45119
* clarifies ssh_key_data description, adds newline
* Add definitive to valid_simple_controls in pamd module
* Add changelog fragment for issue 44278
* Adjusted module name to not include path or extension
* Add elapsed return value to select modules
It can be quite useful to know exactly how much time has elapsed
downloading/waiting. This improves existing modules or updates
documentation.
* Ensure elapsed is always returned
* Added changelog fragment
* Add new session parameter to win_psexec
* Indicate which version the session option was added in
* Added changelog fragment and minor edit on doc entry
* YUM4/DNF compatibility via yum action plugin
DNF does not natively support allow_downgrade as an option, instead
that is always the default (not configurable by the administrator)
so it had to be implemented
- Fixed group actions in check mode to report correct changed state
- Better error handling for depsolve and transaction errors in DNF
- Fixed group action idempotent transactions
- Add use_backend to yum module/action plugin
- Fix dnf handling of autoremove (didn't used to work nor had a
default value specified, now does work and matches default
behavior of yum)
- Enable installroot tests for yum4(dnf) integration testing, dnf
backend now supports that
- Switch from zip to bc for certain package install/remove test
cases in yum integration tests. The dnf depsolver downgrades
python when you uninstall zip which alters the test environment
and we have no control over that.
- Add changelog fragment
- Return a pkg_mgr fact if it was not previously set.
* Share the implementation of hashing for both vars_prompt and password_hash.
* vars_prompt with encrypt does not require passlib for the algorithms
supported by crypt.
* Additional checks ensure that there is always a result.
This works around issues in the crypt.crypt python function that returns
None for algorithms it does not know.
Some modules (like user module) interprets None as no password at all,
which is misleading.
* The password_hash filter supports all parameters of passlib.
This allows users to provide a rounds parameter, fixing #15326.
* password_hash is not restricted to the subset provided by crypt.crypt,
fixing one half of #17266.
* Updated documentation fixes other half of #17266.
* password_hash does not hard-code the salt-length, which fixes bcrypt
in connection with passlib.
bcrypt requires a salt with length 22, which fixes#25347
* Salts are only generated by ansible when using crypt.crypt.
Otherwise passlib generates them.
* Avoids deprecated functionality of passlib with newer library versions.
* When no rounds are specified for sha256/sha256_crypt and sha512/sha512_crypt
always uses the default values used by crypt, i.e. 5000 rounds.
Before when installed passlibs' defaults were used.
passlib changes its defaults with newer library versions, leading to non
idempotent behavior.
NOTE: This will lead to the recalculation of existing hashes generated
with passlib and without a rounds parameter.
Yet henceforth the hashes will remain the same.
No matter the installed passlib version.
Making these hashes idempotent.
Fixes#15326Fixes#17266Fixes#25347 except bcrypt still uses 2a, instead of the suggested 2b.
* random_salt is solely handled by encrypt.py.
There is no _random_salt function there anymore.
Also the test moved to test_encrypt.py.
* Uses pytest.skip when passlib is not available, instead of a silent return.
* More checks are executed when passlib is not available.
* Moves tests that require passlib into their own test-function.
* Uses the six library to reraise the exception.
* Fixes integration test.
When no rounds are provided the defaults of crypt are used.
In that case the rounds are not part of the resulting MCF output.
* Switch to LiteralPath instead of Path. Closes#44508
* add changelog fragment
* fix line endings and remove final empty line
* Minor text changes in changelog
