* 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 https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/devel/community/development_process.html#changelogs Co-authored-by: Felix Fontein <felix@fontein.de> * Since module split, version_added no-longer refers to core Ansbile Co-authored-by: Felix Fontein <felix@fontein.de> * Tweak documentation * Apply the new `elements` feature for specifying list types Co-authored-by: Felix Fontein <felix@fontein.de> * Set version_added Co-authored-by: Felix Fontein <felix@fontein.de> * Document `pkg` alias for `name` * Be explicit about the purpose of states `installed` and `removed`. * Force the user to specify their desired state. * Review documentation for pkgutil module. * Fully qualify svr4pkg module name Co-authored-by: Felix Fontein <felix@fontein.de> Co-authored-by: Felix Fontein <felix@fontein.de> |
