porting @dominis 's ansible-shell tool from 1.9 and integrating it into ansible
added verbosity control
made more resilitent to several errors
added highlight color, to configurable colors
more resilient on exception and interruptions
prompt coloring, goes red and changes to # when using become = true and root
become setting is now explicit and not a toggle
Having used this script several times today, I came to notice the $SubjectName variable, being passed in via the CLI, is essentially ignored when generating the SSL certificates, rendering it useless. I believe it's a good idea to have it in place, so I've updated the script to reflect this.
I also cleaned up some random new lines throughout the file, and expanded on a comment.
It might be worth going a step further and commenting the file fully, as most people reviewing this file won't be familiar with PowerShell (like I wasn't unitl a few days ago). It could be helpful.
* allow global no_log setting, no need to set at play or task level, but can be overriden by them
* allow turning off syslog only on task execution from target host (manage_syslog), overlaps with no_log functionality
* created log function for task modules to use, now we can remove all syslog references, will use systemd journal if present
* added debug flag to modules, so they can make it call new log function conditionally
* added debug logging in module's run_command
The current script fails on machines which have network interfaces designated
as connected to "Public" networks (choices for network designation being
Private, Domain, Public). This commit changes the script to NOT prevent winrm
initialization when device is connected to a "Public" network.
Replace .iteritems() with six.iteritems() everywhere except in
module_utils (because there's no 'six' on the remote host). And except
in lib/ansible/galaxy/data/metadata_template.j2, because I'm not sure
six is available there.
* now it uses -n to get immediate error if no password is supplied and one is needed,
this should fix the issue with sudo hanging waiting for input.
* made -k configurable, this can break changing become_users in play if left out,
but opens up the possiblity of OTP support.
* enable batch mode (configurable with a config option, on by default)
for sftp transfers, so we can catch errors more easily
* general cleanup in the local connection plugin and fetch action plugin

$powershell path is set to "C:\powershell" at line 27. This is fine, but on line 82 $powershellpath is called as ".$powershellpath\$filename". Because the path at line 27 is absolute, a period preceding the $powershellpath is not required at 82. It actually causes an error:
Start-Process : This command cannot be executed due to the error: Unknown error (0x80041002).
At C:\users\Nathan Sosnovske\Documents\ps2to3.ps1:81 char:14
Start-Process <<<< -FilePath ".$powershellpath\$filename" -ArgumentList /quiet
CategoryInfo : InvalidOperation: (:) [Start-Process], InvalidOperationException
FullyQualifiedErrorId : InvalidOperationException,Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.StartProcessCommand
Removing the period on line 82 before $powershellpath fixes this error.
* Adds another module utility file which generalizes the
access of urls via the urllib* libraries.
* Adds a new spec generator for common arguments.
* Makes the user-agent string configurable.
Fixes#6211
