Couldn't find any code that does this now but left a comment so that we
don't change something in the future without seeing that it could be
a problem.
A small collection of fixes and improvements:
- Simplify should_deploy_from_template()
- Bugfix for x.config that can be None
- Bugfix for mandatory guest_id (not when using templates)
- Simplify key testing and defaults
- Fix an incorrect reference to the last network
- Duplicate alias 'folder' removed
When becoming an unprivileged user using non-sudo on a platform where
getlogin() failed in our situation we were not able to detect that the
user had switched. This meant that all of our logic to use move vs copy
if the user had switched was attempting the wrong thing. This change
tries the to do the right thing but then falls back to an acceptable
second choice if it doesn't work.
The bug wasn't easily detected because:
* sudo was not affected because sudo records that the user's have been
switched so we were able to detect that.
* getlogin() works on most platforms. RHEL5 with python-2.4 seems to be
the only platform we still care about where getlogin() fails for this
case.
* It had to be becoming an unprivileged user. When becoming
a privileged user, the user would be able to successfully perform the
best case tasks.
* Issue #19575: Adding Dest Param to win_uri
Added `dest` param to win_uri. Outputs the response body to a specified
file.
Addresses Issue #19575
* Was setting the wrong attribute
* 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.
os.write() needs bytes objects on python3 while python2 can work with
either a byte or unicode string. Mark the DUMMY_CA_CERT string as
a byte string so it will work.

In some cases it is desirable to have a send only function that doesn't
wait for the response from the CLI (such as reloading a device). This
adds a new key to the command json string sendonly that will
achieve this behavior.
When the same role is listed consecutively in a play, the previous role
completion detection failed to mark it as complete as it only checked to
see if the role changed.
This patch addresses that by also keeping track of which task in the role
we are on, so that even if the same role is encountered during later passes
the task number will be less than or equal to the last noted task position.

This module managed DHCPd hosts using OMAPI protocol
Features:
* Add a host
* Remove a host
* Modify host IP (it's impossible to modify only mac or only hostname, this doesn't have any effect)
* Add custom DHCP attributes (at creation only)
- Consistent capitalisation in the descriptions
- Removed redundant 'optional' notes when this is covered by the Boolean `optional` column
- Clarified `instance_id` description
* set is_public 'true' or 'false'
Despite being a boolean property, https://github.com/melta/boto/blob/master/boto/ec2/image.py:63 sets is_public = True only if the argument is passed in as the string 'true'. Likewise for False/'false'.
This is a workaround for that bug in boto2, to allow the documented parameter to work with valid yaml values.
fixes#5600
* only set is_public if true
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).
Actual doc give this error
```

"module_args": {
"command": "facts",
"register": "new_database_facts"
},

Register should be at the module `rds` level and not at args level in this example :
```

command: facts
instance_name: new-database
- register: new_database_facts
+ register: new_database_facts
```
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
When using ansible deployment on git push, git insert "remote:"
at the start of ansible output. If you force the color on ansible,
the "remote:" also get colored if the string to display is on
more than 1 line.
This change make sure that each end of line reset the color, instead
of reseting only at the end of the string.
Added iocage connector that extends the jail connector. Uses iocage to translate iocage tags or UUIDs/partial UUIDs to the actual jail name and then uses the jail connector for actual functionality.
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

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
If the plugin version expected is, say '1.20', then specifying it
as...
version: 1.20
... will make the YAML parser interpret it as a float, and the
value obtained by the module will be 1.2 instead of 1.20, which
will cause downloading of wrong version of the module.
This patch updates the docs so that users don't face this issue.
* Fix # #5839 Add 'update' parameter in junos_config module
Add update parameter in junos_config module which supports
configuration action like merge, replace and overwrite.
* Fix documentation issue
* Fix review comment to add replace argument
Make replace and update argument mutually
exclusive, to support replace for backward
compatibility.
Previously, packages were installed one at a time in a loop. This caused
a couple of problems.
First, it was a performance issue - pacman would have to perform all of
its checks once per package. This is unnecessarily costly, especially
when you're trying to install several related packages at the same time.
Second, if a package you're trying to install depends on a virtual
package that is provided by several different packages (such as the
"libgl" package on Arch) and you aren't also installing something that
provides that virtual package at the same time, pacman will produce an
interactive prompt to allow the user to select a relevant package. This
is obviously incompatible with how ansible operates. Yes, this problem
could be avoided by installing packages in a different order, but the
order of installation shouldn't matter, and there may be situations
where it is not possible to control the order of installation.
With this refactoring, all of the above problems are avoided. The code
will now work out all of the packages that need to be installed from any
configured repositories and any packages that need to be installed from
local files, and then install all the repository packages in one go and
then all of the local file packages in one go.
This is a redesign in how plugins call _remote_checksum().
- _remote_stat() has been modified to report the real error as
AnsiblError
- Action plugin **unarchive** calls _remote_stat() directly instead of
_remote_checksum()
- Action plugin **unarchive** also handles the exceptions directly
- Ensure get_exception() returns native text
Two other action plugins, **template** and **fetch**, also do a remote checksum.
In **template** we already call _remote_stat(), just like we now do for
unarchive, in **fetch** we do call _remote_checksum() and we make the
exact same mistake as the unarchive plugin. So that one could use a
redesign as well.
This fixes#19494

For devices that do not support mutliplexing, we cannot automatically
determine the network os. This removes the os guess static method
from the terminal plugin. For this devices, the network_os
value must be configured
It's possible to compress packages using several different compression
methods, or not compressed at all. Previously, the pacman module only
supported files compressed using xz. This update ensures that all
compression types currently supported by pacman are supported by the
ansible pacman module.
The list of supported compression methods at the time of writing can be
found here:
https://git.archlinux.org/pacman.git/tree/scripts/makepkg.sh.in#n747
This fix ensures that if there are specific module errors (in our case
the python interpreter was not found) then command and shell returns a
proper error.
It also fixes a few other imperfections that we noticed during
troubleshooting:
- Return the real RC if it were available
- Improve a dictionary evaluation using .get()
- Return an RC of -1 if it is unknown (instead of returning 0)
This fixes#18846
This fix ensures a proper error is shown when a group_vars files cannot

Sudoers is a great example to show how you can prevent shutting yourself
out. But SSHd is at least as important to avoid syntax errors causing a
lot of grieve. So I think it deserves a spot in this list :-)
