- add exos action plugin for "backup" operation
- add unit tests for exos_command (currently 94% coverage of
exos_config.py)
_parsed_return_data should only be used with the return from a module.
This location was invoking a remote shell command rather than a module
so we don't want it here.

* Address failing tests
* Remove simplejson from contrib and other outlying files
* Add changelog fragment for simplejson removal
Now that we don't need to worry about python-2.4 and 2.5, we can make
some improvements to the way AnsiballZ handles modules.
* Change AnsiballZ wrapper to use import to invoke the module
We need the module to think of itself as a script because it could be
coded as:
main()
or as:
if __name__ == '__main__':
main()
Or even as:
if __name__ == '__main__':
random_function_name()
A script will invoke all of those. Prior to this change, we invoked
a second Python interpreter on the module so that it really was
a script. However, this means that we have to run python twice (once
for the AnsiballZ wrapper and once for the module). This change makes
the module think that it is a script (because __name__ in the module ==
'__main__') but it's actually being invoked by us importing the module
code.
There's three ways we've come up to do this.
* The most elegant is to use zipimporter and tell the import mechanism
that the module being loaded is __main__:
* 5959f11c9d/lib/ansible/executor/module_common.py (L175)
* zipimporter is nice because we do not have to extract the module from
the zip file and save it to the disk when we do that. The import
machinery does it all for us.
* The drawback is that modules do not have a __file__ which points
to a real file when they do this. Modules could be using __file__
to for a variety of reasons, most of those probably have
replacements (the most common one is to find a writable directory
for temporary files. AnsibleModule.tmpdir should be used instead)
We can monkeypatch __file__ in fom AnsibleModule initialization
but that's kind of gross. There's no way I can see to do this
from the wrapper.
* Next, there's imp.load_module():
* https://github.com/abadger/ansible/blob/340edf7489/lib/ansible/executor/module_common.py#L151
* imp has the nice property of allowing us to set __name__ to
__main__ without changing the name of the file itself
* We also don't have to do anything special to set __file__ for
backwards compatibility (although the reason for that is the
drawback):
* Its drawback is that it requires the file to exist on disk so we
have to explicitly extract it from the zipfile and save it to
a temporary file
* The last choice is to use exec to execute the module:
* https://github.com/abadger/ansible/blob/f47a4ccc76/lib/ansible/executor/module_common.py#L175
* The code we would have to maintain for this looks pretty clean.
In the wrapper we create a ModuleType, set __file__ on it, read
the module's contents in from the zip file and then exec it.
* Drawbacks: We still have to explicitly extract the file's contents
from the zip archive instead of letting python's import mechanism
handle it.
* Exec also has hidden performance issues and breaks certain
assumptions that modules could be making about their own code:
http://lucumr.pocoo.org/2011/2/1/exec-in-python/
Our plan is to use imp.load_module() for now, deprecate the use of
__file__ in modules, and switch to zipimport once the deprecation
period for __file__ is over (without monkeypatching a fake __file__ in
via AnsibleModule).
* Rename the name of the AnsiBallZ wrapped module
This makes it obvious that the wrapped module isn't the module file that
we distribute. It's part of trying to mitigate the fact that the module
is now named __main)).py in tracebacks.
* Shield all wrapper symbols inside of a function
With the new import code, all symbols in the wrapper become visible in
the module. To mitigate the chance of collisions, move most symbols
into a toplevel function. The only symbols left in the global namespace
are now _ANSIBALLZ_WRAPPER and _ansiballz_main.

One of the earlier implementation of unified temp for 2.4 passed the
temp diretory to the remote side using this environment variable. We
later changed it to be passed via a module parameter but forgot to
remove the environment variable.
Allow specifying the source and destination files' encodings in the template module
* Added output_encoding to the template module, default to utf-8
* Added documentation for the new variables
* Leveraged the encoding argument on to_text() and to_bytes() to keep the implementation as simple as possible
* Added integration tests with files in utf-8 and windows-1252 encodings, testing all combinations
* fix bad smell test by excluding windows-1252 files from the utf8 checks
* fix bad smell test by excluding valid files from the smart quote test
* Support setting persistent command timeout per task basis
Fixes#42200
* Add variable `ansible_command_timeout` to `persistent_command_timeout`
option for `network_cli` and `netconf` connection plugin so that the
command_timeout can be set per task basis while using `connection=network_cli`
or `connection=netconf`
eg:
```
- name: run copy command
ios_command:
commands:
- show version
vars:
ansible_command_timeout: 40
```
* Modify `ansible-connection` to read command_timeout value from
connection plugin options.
* Add `ansible_command_timeout` to `persistent_command_timeout`
option in `persistent` to support `connection=local` so that
it is backward compatibilty
* To support `connection=local` pass the timeout value as variables
from persistent connection to `ansible-connection` instead of sending
it in playcontext
* Fix CI failure
* Fix review comment
This change adds a new argument to the telnet action plugin that will
cause the module to send a newline character before trying to login.
This is convienent when using telnet over a console connection that
needs an initial newline character to start the login process.
This change also will cause the sent command and command response to be
displayed on stdout when running in verbose mode (5 v's).
* win_reboot: fix 2.6 issues and better handle post reboot reboot
* changed winrm _reset to reset
* Add handler to reset calls when .reset() throws an AnsibleError on older hosts
* Moving back to _reset to get the issue fixed
* Fix tmpdir on non root become
- also avoid exception if tmpdir and remote_tmp are None
- give 'None' on deescalation so tempfile will fallback to it's default behaviour
and use system dirs
- fix issue with bad tempdir (not existing/not createable/not writeable)
i.e nobody and ~/.ansible/tmp
- added tests for blockfile case
* Revert "Temporarily revert c119d54"
This reverts commit 5c614a59a6.
* changes based on PR feedback and changelog fragment
* changes based on the review
* Fix tmpdir when makedirs failed so we just use the system tmp
* Let missing remote_tmp fail
If remote_tmp is missing then there's something more basic wrong in the
communication from the controller to the module-side. It's better to
be alerted in this case than to silently ignore it.
jborean and I have independently checked what happens if the user sets
ansible_remote_tmp to empty string and !!null and both cases work fine.
(null is turned into a default value controller-side. empty string
triggers the warning because it is probably not a directory that the
become user is able to use).
* Fix fetching old style facts in junos_facts module
Fixes#42298
* To fetch old style facts from junos device it requires
login credentials in provider, hence while using
connection=nectonf do not delete provider values
as it might not be ignored
* Add `ofacts` as one of the options in `gather_subset`
* Minor update in documentation
* Fix CI failure
* ensure copy action plugin returns an invocation in result
Fixes#18232
Previously the action plugin for copy, which runs operations on the
control host to orchestrate executing both local actions on the
control host and remote actions on the remote host, is not returning
invocation dict in the result dict, this happens here where the
return from _copy_file() is None
When force is True, the _execute_module() method is called, which
returns the dict containing the invocation key. This patch ensures
there is always an invocation key.

* fix conditional, handle content no_log

Removes the SSH enforcement because it breaks situations where, for example,
an admin maintains Ansible Tower and another team needs to use Ansible
with the BIG-IP modules, but the Tower admin does not want to install
the F5-SDK on the Ansible Tower instance.
In this situation, the user needs to delegate the execution of the BIG-IP
module to another linux host that does have the dependencies installed.
Usually this is done with delegation, often over SSH. Limiting the SSH
connection here prevents this from working.
