The composer module always uses the no-interaction option if it
discovers it _after_ calling "composer help ..." but not on the help
call itself. The lack of this option caused composer to not exit when
called through the ansible module.
The same example command when ran interactively does not prompt for user
interaction and exits immediately. It is therefore currently unknown why
the same command hangs when called through the ansible composer module
or even directly with the command module.
Example command which hangs:
php /usr/local/bin/composer help install --format=json

* Fix typo in redhat_subscription testcase
* Fix macports state=present matching against the wrong package name
Previous implementation returned true if the desired package name occurred anywhere in
the list of all installed packages. For example as a substring of another package name,
or even as a substring of a variant name for a different package.
Instead:
- request macports only list installed packages matching the desired package name, instead of all installed packages.
- Note `port` exits with 0 regardless of whether any packages match the requested name.
- pass `-q` flag: "Do not print the header line. This is useful when parsing the output of port installed in scripts for further processing."
- eliminate `use_unsafe_shell=True` by searching stdout contents natively in python
instead of using `grep`. This has the added benefit of eliminating any potential
misinterpretation of characters in the package name as regex special characters.
If there are zero matching installed packages, `out` is empty.
If there are one or more matches (due to multiple installed versions), the output format
is: ec8a2bc682/src/port/port.tcl (L3320-L3323)
Notably, two leading spaces, the package name, a space, and then other information.
According to blame via github, those lines haven't changed in 11 years.
* Update macports state=active to eliminate use_unsafe_shell
Similar to previous commit (for macports state=present):
- pass `-q` flag: "Do not print the header line. This is useful when parsing the output of port installed in scripts for further processing."
- search stdout contents natively in python instead of using `grep`.
- added parentheses to search string to eliminate false positives if the package name
or variants contain the word `active`. Still could fail if they contain `(active)`, but
that's less likely
If there are zero matching installed packages, `out` is empty.
If there are one or more matches (due to multiple installed versions), the output format
is: ec8a2bc682/src/port/port.tcl (L3320-L3323)
For "state=active", we're looking for a line that contains `(active)` in the output.
* Basic test case of query_port for present and active
* Attempt to fix lint errors in test
* Different mock module creation, changed test cases indentation/spacing
- picked the wrong mock code to cargo-cult. Thanks to felixfontein for this suggestion
- 4 space indentation on continuation line. I thought I had that originally, but it looks like my editor sabotaged me with mixed tabs/spaces
- Remove leading newline on multi-line test cases. I don't think it would make a difference, but I'd read up on how the python syntax works and want to more accurately represent macports output.
fingers crossed this addresses the known build errors

* pkgutil: add update all, check-mode, squashing and examples
Taken from https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/51651 by dagwieers, which was taken from https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/27866 by scathatheworm. Let’s have one last attempt to get this merged.
> ##### SUMMARY
>
> Original PR #27866 from scathatheworm
>
> When working with Solaris pkgutil CSW packages, I came across this module being very basic in functionality, in particular, that I could not use it to update all CSW packages.
>
> When going into details into the code I also found it did not incorporate a possibility of doing dry-run from the underlying utility, or supported to specify multiple packages for operations.
>
> This module probably sees very little use, but it seemed like nice functionality to add and make it behave a little more like other package modules.
> ##### ISSUE TYPE
>
> * Feature Pull Request
>
>
> ##### COMPONENT NAME
>
> pkgutil module
> ##### ANSIBLE VERSION
>
> ```
> ansible 2.3.1.0
> config file = /etc/ansible/ansible.cfg
> configured module search path = Default w/o overrides
> python version = 2.7.5 (default, Aug 2 2016, 04:20:16) [GCC 4.8.5 20150623 (Red Hat 4.8.5-4)]
> ```
>
> ##### ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
>
> * Added ability to upgrade all packages:
>
>
> ```yaml
> - pkgutil:
> name: '*'
> state: latest
> ```
>
> * Added ability to modify state of a list of packages:
>
>
> ```yaml
> - pkgutil:
> name:
> - CSWtop
> - CSWwget
> - CSWlsof
> state: present
> ```
>
> * Added ability to have underlying tool perform a dry-run when using check mode, pkgutil -n
>
> * Added ability to configure force option to force packages to state determined by repository (downgrade for example)
>
>
> ```yaml
> - pkgutil:
> name: CSWtop
> state: latest
> force: yes
> ```
>
> * Added more examples and documentation to show the new functionality
* Add changelog fragment.
* Observe changelog style guide
