* Add dynamic inventory script and config for Packet.net
* The script and config have been shamelessly cargo
culted from the `ec2.py` and `ec2.ini` dynamic inventory
script.
* This is an initial version and could very well be
enhanced and made better.
Examples:
`PACKET_NET_API_KEY=<MY_AUTH_TOKEN> --list` to get inventory for
all hosts in Packet.net in all projects (defaults to `--list`
if no argument provided).
`PACKET_NET_API_KEY=<MY_AUTH_TOKEN> --host HOST` to get variables
for a single host.
* improvements in Packet host dynamic inventory
Ensure command line profile argument and AWS_PROFILE environment variable
overrides config file
Remove unnecessary `lambda` function
Fix cache file path construction to be more pythonic (and windows-ready)
use inkey attribute in _process_object_types recursive loop to generate key name in skip_keys directive.
This permit to ignore nested variables, for example summary.vm to optimize inventory collect
* vmware_inventory: permit to group by custom field
This permits to create instances, affect some custom fields like EC2 tags and then retrieve groups from custom fields like EC2 inventory
* vmware_inventory: Customize skip_keys & add resourceconfig to skip_keys
Verify if customfield is a str before processing custom fields for a host
* Fix many points reported by PyCharm as PEP 8 code style
* Improve inventory performance by dropping vim.HostSystem & vim.VirtualMachine collect when depth >= 2
* Declare some class variables properly
* Remove some unused variables
* Add documentation in vmware_inventory.ini for VMWARE_USERNAME & VMWARE_PASSWORD env vars
This forces basic auth to be used. Using the normal HTTPPasswordMgrWithDefaultRealm
password manager from urllib2 fails since collins doesn't send a 401 retry on failure.
More about this can be seen here http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2407126/python-urllib2-basic-auth-problem.
I added a small comment about the format of the host so others don't waste time like i did.
- Remove shebangs from:
- ini files
- unit tests
- module_utils
- plugins
- module_docs_fragments
- non-executable Makefiles
- Change non-modules from '/usr/bin/python' to '/usr/bin/env python'.
- Change '/bin/env' to '/usr/bin/env'.
Also removed main functions from unit tests (since they no longer
have a shebang) and fixed a python 3 compatibility issue with
update_bundled.py so it does not need to specify a python 2 shebang.
A script was added to check for unexpected shebangs in files.
This script is run during CI on Shippable.
