* Make the module_utils path configurable
* Add a config value to define the path site module_utils files
* Handle module_utils that do not have source as an error
* Make an integration test for module_utils envvar working
* Add documentation for the ANSIBLE_MODULE_UTILS config option/envvar
* Add it to the sample ansible.cfg
* Add it to intro_configuration.
* Also modify intro_configuration to place envvars on equal footing with
the config options (will need to document the envvar names in the
future)
* Also add the ANSIBLE_LIBRARY use case from
https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/15432 so we can close out
that bug.
* A method to validate and alter the ssh control path automatically.
* First tries %C to use the shortened hash
* On further failure, it removes section by section from the original path
* Fix hostname
* Implement bcoca's suggested changes
* Remove unused option
* Remove unused class var
* Use to_string to avoid unicode error
* Switch from to_text to to_bytes
* Update the example config for the new controlpath feature
can be per run or per host, also aggregate or not
set_stats action plugin as reference implementation
added doc stub
display stats in calblack
made custom stats showing configurable
This commit also adds the module to DEFAULT_SQUASH_ACTIONS which is
possible with this change.
The module still calls the pkg_* tools once per name internally, so the only
difference is less invocations of the module itself when using with_items.
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.
* sends the serialized play_context into an already established connection
* hooks the alarm_handler() method in the connection plugin if it exists
* added configuration options for connect interval and retries
* adds syslog logging to Server() instance
This update will send the updated play_context back into an already
established connection in case privilege escalation / descalation activities
need to be performed. This change will also hook the alarm_handler() method
in the connection instance (if available) and call it in case of a
sigalarm raised.
This update adds two new configuration options
* PERSISTENT_CONNECT_INTERVAL - time to wait in between connection attempts
* PERSISTENT_CONNECT_RETRIES - max number of retries
* updates paramiko_ssh to auto add keys
* updates constants with new config options
This commit adds a new feature that will allow paramiko to automatically
accept and save a host ssh key. This feature is controlled by the
`host_key_auto_add` config setting in the paramiko section. The default
is False to maintain current functionality. It also includes a new
setting `look_for_keys` with the default to False for maintaining current the
current setting.
* ANSIBLE_SSH_CONTROL_PATH_DIR option added
This removes the hardcoded value ( $HOME/.ansible/cp ) from ssh.py.
User is able to change the ControlPath directory ( the one that replaces %(directory)s ).
Fixes#18325
* Added config option in ansible.cfg
This is better API as the booleans could conflict with each other.
If the config value is a string, make sure to return it as a text string
rather than a byte string.
As recently there was back-and-forth with this hardcoded value
(0.001 -> 0.01 -> 0.005), obviousely the optimal value for it depends on
Ansible usage scanario and is better to be configurable.
This patch adds a new config option in DEFAULT section,
`internal_poll_interval`, with default of 0.001 corresponding to the
value hardcoded in Ansible v2.1.
This config option is then used instead of hardcoded values where
needed.

Implement tag and skip_tag handling in the CLI() class. Change tag and
skip_tag command line options to be accepted multiple times on the CLI
and add them together rather than overwrite.
* Make it configurable whether to merge or overwrite multiple --tags arguments
* Make the base CLI class an abstractbaseclass so we can implement
functionality in parse() but still make subclasses implement it.
* Deprecate the overwrite feature of --tags with a message that the
default will change in 2.4 and go away in 2.5.
* Add documentation for merge_multiple_cli_flags
* Fix galaxy search so its tags argument does not conflict with generic tags
* Unit tests and more integration tests for tags
If the sftp fails, roll over to scp by default. This saves users
from having to know about the scp_if_ssh method when sftp is broken
on the remote host.
* Improve unit testing of 'password' lookup
The tests showed some UnicodeErrors for the
cases where the 'chars' param include unicode,
causing the 'getattr(string, c, c)' to fail.
So the candidate char generation code try/excepts
UnicodeErrors there now.
Some refactoring of the password.py module to make
it easier to test, and some new tests that cover more
of the password and salt generation.
* More refactoring and fixes.
* manual merge of text enc fixes from pr17475
* moving methods to module scope
* more refactoring
* A few more text encoding fixes/merges
* remove now unused code
* Add test cases and data for _gen_candidate_chars
* more test coverage for password lookup
* wip
* More text encoding fixes and test coverage
* cleanups
* reenable text_type assert
* Remove unneeded conditional in _random_password
* Add docstring for _gen_candidate_chars
* remove redundant to_text and list comphenesion
* Move set of 'chars' default in _random_password
on py2, C.DEFAULT_PASSWORD_CHARS is a regular str
type, so the assert here fails. Move setting the
default into the method and to_text(DEFAULT_PASSWORD_CHARS)
if it's needed.
* combine _random_password and _gen_password
* s/_create_password_file/_create_password_file_dir
* native strings for exception msgs
* move password to_text to _read_password_file
* move to_bytes(content) to _write_password_file
* add more test assertions about genned pw's
* Some cleanups to alikins and abadger's password lookup refactoring:
* Make DEFAULT_PASSWORD_CHARS into a text string in constants.py
- Move this into the nonconfigurable section of constants.
* Make utils.encrypt.do_encrypt() return a text string because all the
hashes in passlib should be returning ascii-only strings and they are
text strings in python3.
* Make the split up of functions more sane:
- Don't split such that conditionals have to occur in two separate functions.
- Don't go overboard: Good to split file system manipulation from parsing
but we don't need to do every file manipulation in a separate
function.
- Don't split so that creation of the password store happens in two
parts.
- Don't split in such a way that no decisions are made in run.
* Organize functions by when it gets called from run().
* Run all potential characters through the gen_candidate_chars function
because it does both normalization and validation.
* docstrings for functions
* Change when we store salt slightly. Store it whenever it was already
present in the file as well as when encrypt is requested. This will
head of potential idempotence bugs where a user has two playbook tasks
using the same password and in one they need it encrypted but in the
other they need it plaintext.
* Reorganize tests to follow the order of the functions so it's easier
to figure out if/where a function has been tested.
* Add tests for the functions that read and write the password file.
* Add tests of run() when the password has already been created.
* Test coverage currently at 100%
* These can still race when multiple ansible processes are created at
the same time.
* Reverse order of expanduser and expandvars in unfrakpath(). So that
tildes in environment variables will be handled.
This makes Ansible no longer set LC_ALL for remote systems. It is up to
the individual modules to set LC_ALL if they need it for screenscraping
the output from a program.
This is the 2.2 followup for #15138
AIX ssh does not seem to like compression, moved it to ssh_args
to allow making it configurable. Note that those using ssh_args
already will need to add it explicitly to keep compression.
