Some downstreams want to ship multiple versions of ansible (Either to
have multiple ansible versions or to have a version that uses python3.X
and a version that uses python2.x). When they do this, they append
a version number to the cli scripts in /usr/bin. This patch will remove
those version numbers before trying to find the ansible python module to
import for this commandline
* replaces persistent connection digest with _create_control_path()
* adds _ansible_socket to _legal_inputs in basic.py
* adds connection_user to play_context
* maps remote_user to connection_user when connection is local
* maps ansible_socket in task_vars to module_args _ansible_socket if exists
adds more logging to handle display being called from plugins. Also
rearranges some of the exception handling to better catch exceptions and
log to local syslog
* 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
* Fixes to the controller text model
* Change command line args to text type
* Make display replace undecodable bytes with replacement chars. This
is only a problem on pyhton3 where surrogates can enter into the msg
but sys.stdout doesn't know how to handle them.
* Remove a deprecated playbook syntax in unicode.yml
* Fix up run_cmd to change its parameters to byte string at appropriate times.
We couldn't copy to_unicode, to_bytes, to_str into module_utils because
of licensing. So once created it we had two sets of functions that did
the same things but had different implementations. To remedy that, this
change removes the ansible.utils.unicode versions of those functions.
This makes our recursive, ast.parse performance measures as fast as
pre-ziploader baseline.
Since this unittest isn't testing that the returned module data is
correct we don't need to worry about os.rename not having any module
data. Should devise a separate test for the module and caching code
porting @dominis 's ansible-shell tool from 1.9 and integrating it into ansible
added verbosity control
made more resilitent to several errors
added highlight color, to configurable colors
more resilient on exception and interruptions
prompt coloring, goes red and changes to # when using become = true and root
become setting is now explicit and not a toggle
This allows not messing up the wonderful error reporting that is
carefully created. Instead of:
$ ansible-playbook foo.yml
[ERROR]: ERROR! 'foo' is not a valid attribute for a Task The error appears
to have been in '/Users/marca/dev/git-repos/ansible/foo.yml': line 4, column 7,
but may be elsewhere in the file depending on the exact syntax problem. The
offending line appears to be: tasks: - name: do something ^ here
we get:
$ ansible-playbook foo.yml
ERROR! 'foo' is not a valid attribute for a Task
The error appears to have been in '/Users/marca/dev/git-repos/ansible/foo.yml': line 4, column 7, but may
be elsewhere in the file depending on the exact syntax problem.
The offending line appears to be:
tasks:
- name: do something
^ here
which is much nicer.
The --force-handlers command line argument was not correctly running
handlers on hosts which had tasks that later failed. This corrects that,
and also allows you to specify force_handlers in ansible.cfg or in a
play.
