- add a skip option so it won't raise an exception if you don't match anything
- make it work as a drop-in replacement for first_available_file
- document in the module comments all of the above cases
AR function was leaving some tmp files behind, want to revert, will have better implementation soon, this is the old way now.
This reverts commit f74a1fa4f0.
Lookup plugins 'sequence' and 'template' now import 'ansible.utils'
appropriately in order to use the 'listify_lookup_plugin_terms'
function.
Also, 'dnstxt' and 'env' now check to see if 'terms' is a string;
without this calls like '{{ lookup('env', 'HOME') }}' fail.
The copy action accepts force=no, which tells it not to replace an
existing file even if it differs from the source. The copy action
plug-in wasn't respecting this option when operated in check mode, so it
would report that changes are necessary in check mode even though copy
would make no changes when run normally.
Runner._remote_md5 was changed to make the logic for setting rc perhaps
a little more clear, and to make sure that rc=0 when the file does not
exist.
Look for a file with the base name of the group/host, first without
a file extension, then with a '.yml' extension, and, finally, with
a '.yaml' extension, loading vars from only the first one found.
As documented in #2623, early variable substitution causes when_
tests to fail and possibly other side effects.
I can see the reason for this early substitution, likely introduced
in 1dfe60a6, to allow many playbook parameters to be templated.
This is a valid goal, but the recursive nature of the utils.template
function means that it goes too far.
At this point removing tasks from the list of parameters to be
substituted seems sufficient to make my tests pass. It may be the
case that other parameters should be excluded, but I suspect not.
Adding a test case. I would prefer to analyse not just the aggregate
statistics but also whether the results are as expected - I can't
see an easy way to do that with the available callbacks at present.
Technically this isn't quite valid YAML when this happens, so we make it valid. This means that if a future commander
API allows save/load it should make sure it does similar processing.
