I'm not sure why that would be desirable -- we really want __version__
to come from the controller whereas importing will come from the client
node. If it turns out there was a reason to do that, please be sure to
use an exception handler that catches all exceptions instead of only
catching ImportError:
```
try:
from ansible.release import __version__, __author__
except:
__version__ = [...]
```
Fixes#16523
* switch cwd to basedir of task
This restores previous behaviour in pre 2.0 and allows for 'local type' plugins
and actions to have a more predictable relative path.
fixes#14489
* removed FIXME since prev commit 'fixes' this
* fix tests, now they need a loader (thanks jimi!)
* add check_mode option for tasks
includes example testcases for the template module
* extend check_mode option
* replace always_run, see also proposal rename_always_run
* rename always_run where used and add deprecation warning
* add some documentation
* have check_mode overwrite always_run
* use unique template name to prevent conflicts
test_check_mode was right before, but failed due to using the same filename as other roles
* still mention always_run in the docs
* set deprecation of always_run to version 2.4
* fix rst style
* expand documentation on per-task check mode
now systemd will run even if service module is inovked with parameters that it does not support
these will be removed before invoking systemd and issue a warning.
this facility will work for any new service modules.
A simple import of cryptography can throw several types of errors. For example,
if `setuptools` is less than cryptography's minimum requirement of 11.3, then
this import of cryptography will throw a VersionConflict here. An earlier case
threw a DistributionNotFound exception.
An optional dependency should not stop ansible. If the error is more than
an ImportError, log a warning, so that errors can be fixed in ansible or
elsewhere.
This bug was introduced in 3ced6d3, where getting vars from a role
did not follow the dep chain. This was originally hidden by the fact
that we got vars twice (from the block and from the roles directly).
Fixes#16729
* fixed lookup search path
added ansible_search_path var that contains the proper list and in order
removed roledir var which was only used by first_found, rest used role_path
added needle function for lookups that mirrors the action plugin one, now
both types of plugins use same pathing.
* added missing os import
* renamed as per feedback
* fixed missing rename in first_found
* also fixed first_found
* fixed import to match new error class
* fixed getattr ref
* moved tests from filters to actual jinja2 tests
also removed some unused declarations and imports
* split tests into their own docs
removed isnan as existing jinja2's 'number' already covers same
added missing docs for several tests
* updated as per feedback
2e003adb added the ability for tasks using any_errors_fatal to fail
when there were unreachable hosts. However that patch used the running
unreachable hosts data rather than the results from the current task,
which causes failures when any run_once or BYPASS_HOST_LOOP task is hit
after an unreachable host causes a failure. This patch corrects that by
using the current set of results to determine if any hosts were
unreachable during the last task only.
Fixesansible/ansible-modules-core#4160
This adds a action plugin that will allow config and template modules
to be merged into a single module. Once completed this will supercede
the net_template action plugin.
* add load_config() for loading a set of configuration commands
* add load_candidate() function for loading a candidate config
* updates shared module to provide NetworKModule instead of get_module
* fixes Cli transport implementation for 2.2 refactor
* updates ios documentation fragments with new options
* diff functions now split out for easier troubleshooting
* added dumps() function to serialize config objects to strings
* difference() can now expand all blocks instead of just singluar blocks
includes changes from PR ansible/ansible#16636 and refactors for the
NetworkModule changes
new features
* ios now supports transport=restcon will additional arguments
* ModuleStub refactored into common network shared module
* import temporary get_module() function (to be removed prior to 2.2 final)
This is a temporary change to keep the get_module() function until all
of the network module refactoring is completed to avoid breaking them
in devel. The get_module() function should not be used and will be
removed before 2.2 final.
* Update IOS with new NetworkModule
* Remove redundant EOS code
* `authorize` can get rolled into NetCli
* Fix up IOS to where EOS is.
* Update IOSXR for NetworkModule
* collections is unnecessary
Since Ansiballz, we no longer need to import basic directly into
a new-style module. Some modules, like the Networking modules, may
import basic in their own module_utils files and the module will import
that specialized module_util file rather than basic.
* Don't treat parsing problems as async task timeout
If there is a problem reading/writing the status file that manifests as
not being able to parse the data, that doesn't mean the task timed out,
it means there was what was likely a tempoarary problem. Move on and
keep polling for success. The only things that should cause the async
status to not be parseable are bugs in the async_runner.
* Add comment explaining not bailing out of loop
* Return different error when result is unparseable
* Remove extraneous else
* Instead of rebuilding the handler list all over the place, we now
compile the handlers at the point the play is post-validated so that
the view of the play in the PlayIterator contains the definitive list
* Assign the dep_chain to the handlers as they're compiling, just as we
do for regular tasks
* Clean up the logic used to find a given handler, which is greatly
simplified by the above changes
Fixes#15418
* fixes lots of bugs with get_config function to perform correctly
* refactors load_config into load_candidate
* adds load_config function to convert commands to NetworkConfig
The Command object can now store the response from executing the command
to allow it to be retrieved later by command name. This update will
update the Command instance with the response before returning.
This adds a new method that will return the output from a specified
command that has already been excuted by the CommandRunner. The new
method, get_command takes a single argument which is the full name
of the command to retrieve.
