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 allows the EC2 inventory plugin to be used with
the same configuration against different EC2 accounts
Profile can be passed using --profile variable or using
EC2_PROFILE environment variable e.g.
```
EC2_PROFILE=prod ansible-playbook -i ec2.py playbook.yml
```
Added documentation on profiles to EC2 dynamic inventory doc
Only tries to use profiles if --profile argument is given
or EC2_PROFILE is set to maintain compatibility will boto < 2.24.
Works around a minor bug in boto where if you try and use
a security token with a profile it fails (boto/boto#2100)
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.).
