This is because we pass the whole dd command string into the shell
that's running on the contained environment rather than running it
directly from python via subprocess without a shell.
corrected output from default callback
added new tests for no_log loops
updated makefile test to check for both positive and negative occurrences of no_log
The earlier code behaved exactly as though this default had been set,
but it was actually handled as a(n unnecessary) special case inside the
connection plugin, rather than set as an explicit default.
If the default is overriden either in ansible.cfg or the environment,
the new code will continue to work (in fact, it won't know or care,
since it just uses the value set in the PlayContext).
This is submitted as a separate commit for easier review to address
backwards-compatibility concerns.
Using set_host_overrides() in the connection plugin to access the ssh
argument variables from the inventory didn't see group_vars/host_vars
settings, as noted earlier. Instead, we can set the correct values in
the PlayContext, which has access to all command-line options, task
settings, and variables.
The only downside of doing so is that the source of the settings is no
longer available in ssh.py, and therefore can't be logged. But the code
is simpler, and it actually works.
This change was suggested by @jimi-c in response to the FIXME in the
earlier commit.
Now we have the following ways to set additional arguments:
1. [ssh_connection]ssh_args in ansible.cfg: global setting, prepended to
every command line for ssh/scp/sftp. Overrides default ControlPersist
settings.
2. ansible_ssh_common_args inventory variable. Appended to every command
line for ssh/scp/sftp. Used in addition to ssh_args, if set above, or
the default settings.
3. ansible_{sftp,scp,ssh}_extra_args inventory variables. Appended to
every command line for the relevant binary only. Used in addition to
#1 and #2, if set above, or the default settings.
3. Using the --ssh-common-args or --{sftp,scp,ssh}-extra-args command
line options (which are overriden by #2 and #3 above).
This preserves backwards compatibility (for ssh_args in ansible.cfg),
but also permits global settings (e.g. ProxyCommand via _common_args) or
ssh-specific options (e.g. -R via ssh_extra_args).

<crab> jimi|ansible: do you think it should be possible to add both
foo:22 and foo:23 to the inventory?
<jimi|ansible> no
…so we don't want an invitation to FIXME.
CLI already provides a pager() method that feeds $PAGER on stdin, so we
just feed that the plaintext from the vault file. We can also eliminate
the redundant and now-unused shell_pager_command method in VaultEditor.
(Reminder: cannot use six here, module_utils get shipped to remote
machines that may not have six installed -- besides six doens't support
Python 2.4.)
Since c8f2483d, ini.py expects to always be passed in a pre-created list
of groups, and can no longer deal sensibly with an empty list; this just
makes that expectation clear.
This fixes a corner case where ini files live in a subdir
of the main inventory directory.
Reproducing the original error:
mkdir -p inventory/ini
cat > inventory/ini/hosts << EOF
[www]
www1
EOF
$ ansible -i inventory/ all -m ping
ERROR! 'all'
(or without the [www] group, it would complain about 'ungrouped')
Fixes another failing test.
(I don't want to do a global search/replace for 'basestring' because I
want to have unit tests covering each occurrence. When I run out of
existing failing tests, I'll try to write new ones.)
* Remove extraneous imports
* Fix some error handling
* Enable pipelining
* Disable su since it doesn't work
* Add error message when installed docker is not recent enough to
support this plugin
* Move nested functions to class level
* Make transport a class attribute
* Make exec_command, put_file and fetch_file more robust
* Disable su as it's not currently working 100% (and was disabled in v1).
* Move BUFSIZE out of the class to match other conenction plugins
* _connect shouldn't return self.
This is also peripheral to what _build_command needs, can be improved
and tested independently, and so makes more sense in a separate method.
This commit doesn't change any functionality (and I've verified that it
works with the various combinations: control_path set in ansible.cfg,
ssh_args adding or not adding ControlMaster/ControlPersist, etc.).
SSH pipelining can be a significant performance improvement, but it will
not work if sudoers is configured to requiretty. With this change, one
could have pipelining enabled in ansible.cfg, but use sudo to turn off
requiretty in a separate play (or task) where pipelining is disabled:
- hosts: foo
vars:
ansible_pipelining: no
tasks:
- lineinfile: dest=/etc/sudoers line='Defaults requiretty' state=absent
sudo_user: root
(Note that sudoers has a complicated syntax, so the above lineinfile
invocation may be too simplistic for production use; but the point is
that a separate play can do something to disable requiretty.)
