a8953fcac4 Add documentation on dict2items (#38375)
dict2items is worth mentioning in the filters and loops pages

f1b63f435e The ssh change note has been removed
Since the note was about 2.0 versus 1.x, this has been removed.  The
file implementing it is gone so we need to stop referencing it.

9cca9a9c10 docs: Document disabling diff on task level (#37998)
* docs: Document disabling diff on task level

Tasks that deal with secrets may leak sensitive information when
running in Check Mode. This change updates the documentation explaining
that the diff can be deactivated on task level.

The feature was requested in #14860 and got introduced in Ansible 2.4
with #28581.

* Updated for clarity

57d5b8642a Add examples to YAMLSyntax; fix minor issues and improve wording (#35703)
* Add examples to YAMLSyntax; fix minor issues and improve wording

I added proper titles to "Flow Collections" and "Block Scalars", because these
are official YAML Terms, so people can find better help when having issues.

I changed the "ignored newlines" to "folded newlines" because I think ignoring
gives a wrong impression, especially since empty lines (more than one newline)
are not ignored and have a special meaning.

I added an example how to enforce a newline in a folded block scalar.

I fixed the list of characters that are allowed/not allowed in plain and
double quoted scalars.

I added the #yaml channel to the IRC link.

I added links to the YAML Specs. For completeness, I also included YAML 1.2,
although PyYAML and libyaml currently implement 1.1.

* Improve wording

* Add three more characters to forbidden first characters

VMware: Deprecate vsphere_guest module (#35648)
This change deprecates vsphere_guest in favor of vmware_guest and other
related modules.

The major reasons behind deprecation are -

- Pysphere - Unofficial Python bindings of vCenter deprecated in the year 2013.
- VMware provides official Python bindings for vCenter, which is used in vmware_guest.
- vcsim - simulator used in integration testing of vmware module does not support PySphere
  APIs, which makes it more difficult to test vsphere_guest.

Please see [deprecation plan](https://github.com/ansible/community/wiki/VMware%3A-vsphere_guest_deprecation)

Module deprecation: docs, scheme and tests (#34100)
Enforce module deprecation.
After module has reached the end of it's deprecation cycle we will replace it with a docs stub.

* Replace deprecated modules with docs-only sub
* Use of deprecated past deprecation cycle gives meaningful message (see examples below)
* Enforce documentation.deprecation dict via `schema.py`
* Update `ansible-doc` and web docs to display documentation.deprecation
* Document that structure in `dev_guide`
* Ensure that all modules starting with `_` have a `deprecation:` block
* Ensure `deprecation:` block is only used on modules that start with `_`
* `removed_in` A string which represents when this module needs **deleting**
* CHANGELOG.md and porting_guide_2.5.rst list removed modules as well as alternatives
* CHANGELOG.md links to porting guide index

To ensure that meaningful messages are given to the user if they try to use a module at the end of it's deprecation cycle we enforce the module to contain:
```python
if __name__ == '__main__':
    removed_module()
```

bbd6b8bb42 Temporary (#31677)
* allow shells to have per host options, remote_tmp

added language to shell
removed module lang setting from general as  plugins have it now
use get to avoid bad powershell plugin
more resilient tmp discovery, fall back to `pwd`
add shell to docs
fixed options for when frags are only options
added shell set ops in t_e and fixed option frags
normalize tmp dir usag4e

- pass tmpdir/tmp/temp options as env var to commands, making it default for tempfile
- adjusted ansiballz tmpdir
- default local tempfile usage to the configured local tmp
- set env temp in action

add options to powershell
shift temporary to internal envvar/params
ensure tempdir is set if we pass var
ensure basic and url use expected tempdir
ensure localhost uses local tmp
give /var/tmp priority, less perms issues
more consistent tempfile mgmt for ansiballz
made async_dir configurable
better action handling, allow for finally rm tmp
fixed tmp issue and no more tempdir in ballz
hostvarize world readable and admin users
always set shell tempdir
added comment to discourage use of exception/flow control

* Mostly revert expand_user as it's not quite working.

This was an additional feature anyhow.

Kept the use of pwd as a fallback but moved it to a second ssh
connection.  This is not optimal but getting that to work in a single
ssh connection was part of the problem holding this up.

(cherry picked from commit 395b714120522f15e4c90a346f5e8e8d79213aca)

* fixed script and other action plugins

ensure tmpdir deletion
allow for connections that don't support new options (legacy, 3rd party)

Even though the command is very simple, it's good to be able to c&p it.
There were already commands for apt, emerge, pip, even direct installation
from git, so adding Fedora/RHEL/CentOS examples is reasonable.

Since yum is not installed by default on any supported Fedora releases
(F26 and F28 currently), recommend dnf.

41685fb516 fix precedence issue with facts and vars (#32302)
avoid making gathered facts high precedence, only set_fact is supposed to be.
vars set via set_fact with cacheable are higher precedence than plain facts.

Previously (after 6fbd0a8bb5) regular facts would end up with a
higher precedence than host or play vars, but they should not be. Facts were getting added to 'non_persistent_facts' (equivalent to 'register' vars) which is higher precedence than facts should be.

added 'cacheable set_facts' to precedence docs

'ansible_facts_cacheable' ->  '_ansible_facts_cacheable' (made 'private')

  with_nested: [[1,2,3], ['a','b','c']]

- avoid squashing with 'loop:'
- fixed test to use new intenal attributes
- removed most of 'lookup docs' as these now reside in the plugins

absolutely right in every possible way.

* Fix ref to ansible-vault encrypt_string

* Rename '_ansible-pull' in playbooks_intro.

It was conflicting with rst/ansible-pull.rst. Nothing
seems to reference it.

* Add explicit targets for and update refs

Replace some ':doc:' use with ':ref:'.

Replace some :ref: to section names with explicit targets
(:doc:`Dynamic vs. Static` -> :ref:`dynamic_vs_static` etc)

* The 'YAML+Jinja' syntax lex fails here, so just use yaml

Since the yaml+jinja highlight fails, code wasnt highlighted
at all, but 'yaml' works more or less.

* just use no lexer for the < python2.6 examples

py3 will fail highlighting them, and 'python2' throws
a lexer warning, and nothing actually highlights it, so
just disable.

530988666a Allow delegate_to if transport is not cli (#29945)
Fixes #29060

Allow delegate_to if transport is either nxapi or eapi.

Persistent connection uses `cli` transport and create
a local socket on control node. Hence delegate_to is not allowed
for `cli` transport.

However as `nxapi` and `eapi` transport does not use persistent connection
it is possible to use delegate_to in this case.

Unfortunately, the Github interface does no longer allow me to edit a file in the GUI and then branch it in my personal clone for making a PR. It now only offers to make a PR using a branch on the ansible repository :-(

So committing this directly instead against my will, but per the guidelines this appears to be safe. Fingers crossed...

f78baa1300 Implement ability to limit module documentation building (#24576)
* Implement ability to limit module documentation building:

- Added new option to plugin_formatter.py to support passing-in a list of
  modules for which the documentation should be built.
- Updated docuemtnation Makefile to allow specifying list of modules via
  environment variables (defaulting to all modules).
- Update instructions for building documentation and module development to
  include commands and description of limiting module documentation builds.

* Updated implementation for limiting module documentation building:

- Pass list of modules (or None) to list_modules function instead of string.
- Move conversion of module list to argument parsing code.
- No special keywords. Default ("") means build all modules. For no modules just
  specify non-existing module name.
- Updated documentation to reflect the changes.

* Updated implementation for limiting module documentation building:

- Use better default value, and don't treat "" as special case.
- Conditionally invoke different variants of command in Makefile instead of
  using special value "".

* Minor edits

20b0716948 Allow variables to be passed in to template lookup plugin (#18662)
This allows a single template to be evaluated with different values in
the same task. For example, with a template like 'x:{{a}}', one could do
something like this:

    - foo:
        a: "{{ lookup('template', 'x.j2', template_vars=dict(a=foo[item])) }}"
        b: "{{ lookup('template', 'x.j2', template_vars=dict(a=bar[item])) }}"
      with_items:
        - x
        - y

…and "a" and "b" would expand to different strings based on what we
passed in to the template lookup.

3a2670e0fd Allow specific __future__ imports in modules
We do want to allow certain from __future__ imports in modules that make
it easier to code compatible python2 and python3.  Note that
unicode_literals is specifically left out and should never be allowed.
Now that python-3.4+ allows u"" there's no good reason to use
unicode_literals.

Also switch tables in the validate_modules documentation to simple table format

6a57ad34c0 Allow ini plugin to load file using other encoding than utf8.
- New option for ini plugins: encoding
  - Add a new option encoding to _get_file_contents
  - Use replace option in test/runner/lib/util.py when calling decode on stdout/err
    output when diff have non-utf8 sequences

This commit:
- Adds a table highlighting the status of each version and provides
  a link to each major release's changelog
- Re-inforces how stable versions are maintained and for how long
- Moves this documentation out of the developer tree (this is
  interesting for users too!) while keeping a link there.

483df9c5f8 Imports and includes (#25399)
Initial commit to split includes into static imports/dynamic includes

This implements the new include/import syntax for Ansible 2.4:
* include_{tasks,role,variables} = dynamic
* import_{playbook,tasks,role} = static

The old bare `include` will be considered deprecated, as will any use of the `static: {yes|no}` option.

This also adds docs for import/include and reorganizing the "Playbook Reuse" section of the documentation.

ed56f51f18 Fixing security issue with lookup returns not tainting the jinja2 environment
CVE-2017-7481

Lookup returns wrap the result in unsafe, however when used through the
standard templar engine, this does not result in the jinja2 environment being
marked as unsafe as a whole. This means the lookup result looses the unsafe
protection and may become simple unicode strings, which can result in bad
things being re-templated.

This also adds a global lookup param and cfg options for lookups to allow
unsafe returns, so users can force the previous (insecure) behavior.

04e816e13b Stricter module documentation validation (#22353)
Raise the bar for module `DOCUMENTAION`
This validator update was used to find the issues in https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/22297/files

**Validation**
* Updated Validation and docs to enforce more (items fixed in https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/22297/files)
* Use `suboptions` to document complex options 
* Validate module name
* Validate deprecated modules have correct ANSIBLE_METADATA

**Module Documentation Generation**
* Document `suboptions:` Example https://gist.github.com/gundalow/4bdc3669d696268328ccc18528cc6718
* Tidy up HTML generation (valid HTML, no empty lists, etc)
 
**Documentation**
* Clarify the steps for deprecating a module
* Use correct RST headings
* Document `suboptions:` (options)
* Document `contains:` (returns)


**Details**
The aim is to get this (and corresponding module updates) complete by the time `devel` becomes `2.4`, as this allows us to raise the bar for new modules

Example `suboptions` https://gist.github.com/gundalow/4bdc3669d696268328ccc18528cc6718

The aim is to get this PR integrated into `devel` *before* we branch `stable-2.3`, this will allows us to:
* Raise the bar for new modules in 2.4
* Ensure the generated module documentation for 2.3 and higher is improved, important as we will be doing versioned docs moving forward.

a2599cab79 Fix variable precedence of INI/script vars to be in-line with docs.
This commit also adds a new test script (ansible-var-precedence-check.py in code-smell/)
to provide us with another line of defense against precedence bugs going forward.

The precedence docs state that the INI vars have a lower precedence than group/host
vars files for inventory and playbooks, however that has not been the case since 2.0
was released. This change fixes that in one way, though not exactly as the docs say.
The rules are:

1) INI/script < inventory dir < playbook dir
2) "all" group vars < other group_vars < host_vars

So the new order will be (from the test script mentioned above):

8. pb_host_vars_file - var in playbook/host_vars/host
9. ini_host_vars_file - var in inventory/host_vars/host
10. ini_host - host var inside the ini
11. pb_group_vars_file_child - var in playbook/group_vars/child
12. ini_group_vars_file_child - var in inventory/group_vars/child
13. pb_group_vars_file_parent - var in playbook/group_vars/parent
14. ini_group_vars_file_parent - var in inventory/group_vars/parent
15. pb_group_vars_file_all - var in playbook/group_vars/all
16. ini_group_vars_file_all - var in inventory/group_vars/all
17. ini_child - child group var inside the ini
18. ini_parent - parent group var inside the ini
19. ini_all - all group var inside the ini

bdf0ab451e Add role skeleton support (#17079)
* Add role skeleton support

The default role skeleton used by ansible-galaxy is good, but it doesn't
allow organizations to customize it to suit their needs.  This patch
addresses that by adding the option to point ansible-galaxy at a
role skeleton directory.  The contents of this directory are then
copied (or rendered) into the output role directory.  Appropriate
command line options and configuration entries are added to allow for
further customization from the role skeleton.

* Remove dependency on platforms list from test

Platforms are no longer provided to the template by galaxy init.
Removing the code in our test meta/main.yml template that relied on it.

* Fix whitespace issue

d6b40c935f Fix Passlib example in FAQ (#21997)
* Fixes passlib example in FAQ to reduce the number of rounds to 5000

As stated in issue #15326, the default number for glibc is 5000, where
the default for passlib is 656000.

I actually found out when I spend few hours trying to understand why
ansible was taking almost x3 the time to run a playbook when using a
user with sudo and password (comparared to sudo with NOPASSWD set).
Well, it was because the user was created using ansible and the passlib
example found in the docs' FAQ.

Reducing the numbers of rounds to 5000 will ensure a better experience
with ansible for newcomers when using sudo with a password.

* Fixes passlib example in FAQ to reflect the API changes in passlib 1.7

Method encrypt() was deprecated in 1.7 and renamed to hash(), which
happened almost a year ago.

6fae1d2bbf Make password lookup treat /dev/null as a special case
I have from time to time a need of random password without
wanting to write them down (one example is mailman list creation,
that requires a password to be given to be sent to the list owner).

But using /dev/null do not return null, but the empty string, which
doesn't generate a password at all and so do not achieve my use case.
