* 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 new connection plugin `network_cli` which builds on paramiko
* adds new plugin `terminal` used for manipulating network_cli terminals
* adds new field to play_context `network_os` settable as ansible_network_os
This commit adds the plugins necesary to establish a persistent cli connection
to network devices of ssh. It builds on the paramiko connection plugin
to create a shell environment that will persistent through ansible-connection.
The `newtork_cli` plugin then uses the network_os in the instance of
PlayContext to load the appropriate network OS environment plugin for
handling opening and closing of shells as well as privilege escalation.
* Replace pipes.quote for shlex_quote
* More migration of pipes.quote to shlex_quote
Note that we cannot yet move module code over. Modules have six-1.4
bundled which does not have shlex_quote. This shouldn't be a problem as
the function is still importable from pipes.quote. It's just that this
has become an implementation detail that makes us want to import from
shlex instead.
Once we get rid of the python2.4 dependency we can update to a newer
version of bundled six module-side and then we're free to use
shlex_quote everywhere.
Two parts to this change:
* Add a new string that requests password
* Add a new glyph that can be used to separate the prompt from the
user's input as it seems it can use fullwidth colon rather than colon.
Fixes#17867
The -b option reads as follows:
` The target job is directed to ignore hangup signals. This is particularly
useful for running the target program in the background.`
If needed, '-b' can be added to become_flags

move -b to pbrun_flags
Fixes for non-ascii passwords on
* both python2 and python3,
* local and paramiko_ssh (ssh tested working with these changes)
* sudo and su
Fixes#16557
Implement tag and skip_tag handling in the CLI() class. Change tag and
skip_tag command line options to be accepted multiple times on the CLI
and add them together rather than overwrite.
* Make it configurable whether to merge or overwrite multiple --tags arguments
* Make the base CLI class an abstractbaseclass so we can implement
functionality in parse() but still make subclasses implement it.
* Deprecate the overwrite feature of --tags with a message that the
default will change in 2.4 and go away in 2.5.
* Add documentation for merge_multiple_cli_flags
* Fix galaxy search so its tags argument does not conflict with generic tags
* Unit tests and more integration tests for tags
Working on the test suite, I tried to replace a call to sudo to a
call to su, and found out that I can't change user to 'nobody'
without changing the option become_flags in ansible.cfg
As this would be dependent on the user and the task, it make more sense
to push the setting there.
* add check_mode option for tasks
includes example testcases for the template module
* extend check_mode option
* replace always_run, see also proposal rename_always_run
* rename always_run where used and add deprecation warning
* add some documentation
* have check_mode overwrite always_run
* use unique template name to prevent conflicts
test_check_mode was right before, but failed due to using the same filename as other roles
* still mention always_run in the docs
* set deprecation of always_run to version 2.4
* fix rst style
* expand documentation on per-task check mode
* Ziploader proof of concept (jimi-c)
* Cleanups to proof of concept ziploader branch:
* python3 compatible base64 encoding
* zipfile compression (still need to enable toggling this off for
systems without zlib support in python)
* Allow non-wildcard imports (still need to make this recusrsive so that
we can have module_utils code that imports other module_utils code.)
* Better tracebacks: module filename is kept and module_utils directory
is kept so that tracebacks show the real filenames that the errors
appear in.
* Make sure we import modules that are used into the module_utils files that they are used in.
* Set ansible version in a more pythonic way for ziploader than we were doing in module replacer
* Make it possible to set the module compression as an inventory var
This may be necessary on systems where python has been compiled without
zlib compression.
* Refactoring of module_common code:
* module replacer only replaces values that make sense for that type of
file (example: don't attempt to replace python imports if we're in
a powershell module).
* Implement configurable shebang support for ziploader wrapper
* Implement client-side constants (for SELINUX_SPECIAL_FS and SYSLOG)
via environment variable.
* Remove strip_comments param as we're never going to use it (ruins line
numbering)
* Don't repeat ourselves about detecting REPLACER
* Add an easy way to debug
* Port test-module to the ziploader-aware modify_module()
* strip comments and blank lines from the wrapper so we send less over the wire.
* Comments cleanup
* Remember to output write the module line itself in powershell modules
* for line in lines strips the newlines so we have to add them back in
Prior to 75b6f61, we strictly limited variables we re-injected. After that
patch however, we re-injected everything which causes problems under certain
circumstances. For now, we'll continue to filter out some properties of
PlayContext for re-injection.
Fixes#14352
* If the internal value is None, do not add the variable
* Make sure all aliases for a given variable name are set (if they're
not already set in the dictionary)
Fixes#14310
* Don't re-use the existing connection if the remote_addr field of
the play context has changed
* When overriding variables in PlayContext (from task/variables),
don't set the same attribute based on a different variable name
if we had already previously set it from another variable name
Fixes#13880
moved from the field attribute declaration and created a placeholder
which then is resolved in the field attribute class.
this is to avoid unwanted persistent of the defaults across objects which introduces
stealth bugs when multiple objects of the same kind are used in succession while
not overriding the default values.
tasks were overriding commandline with their defaults, not with the
explicit setting, removed the setting of defaults from task init and
pushed down to play context at last possible moment.
