* Replace InventoryFileCacheModule with a better developer-interface
Use new interface for inventory plugins with backwards compatibility
Auto-update the backing cache-plugin if the cache has changed after parsing the inventory plugin
* Update CacheModules to use the config system and add a deprecation warning if they are being imported directly rather than using cache_loader
* Fix foreman inventory caching
* Add tests
* Add integration test to check that fact caching works normally with cache plugins using ansible.constants and inventory caching provides a helpful error for non-compatible cache plugins
* Add some developer documentation for inventory and cache plugins
* Add user documentation for inventory caching
* Add deprecation docs
* Apply suggestions from docs review
* Add changelog
* Fix FactCache to conform to the dict API
* update needs to take a dict rather than a key and a value
* __init__ needs to allow for setting the intial dictionary
* Remove unneeded _display and _cache attributes
* Move ansible.plugins.cache.FactCache to
ansible.vars.fact_cache.FactCache because this isn't part of the cache
plugin API.
* Add backwards compatibility when calling update on the new FactCache
* Remove code for calling old FactCache. There's no way to call the old
FactCache so there's no need for backwards compatible code for calling
code. Backwards compatibility is handling things which are calling
the new FactCache.
* Port our code to the new FactCache location.
Fixes#35120 : the redis cache plugin keeps key/value
entries in an in-memory cache to avoid hitting the
redis database each time.
The problem is that a cache entry is only set when
a value is get or set but it is always deleted when
trying to delete a value.
When the --flush-cache ansible-playbook option is used,
the redis cache plugin is first asked to remove every
entry corresponding to every hostname present in the inventory.
As no value as been set/get so far, it then tries to delete
an unexisting value from the cache and hence crashes with
a KeyError exception.
With the addition on ajson.py in cbb6a7f4e8, two
new classes were created: AnsibleJSONDecoder and AnsibleJSONEncoder. These
classes are used when calling json.looads() and json.dumps().
This works fine with everything except the jsonfile.py cache plugin, which would
first try to import simplejson as json, then fall back to json. When simplejson
is installed, the load() or dump methods from simplejson are called, which then
try to use the AnsibleJSONEncoder/AnsibleJSONDecoder subclass from ajson.py.
But asjon.py imports json, not simplejson, and things blow up.
* Fix setting the cache when refresh_cache or --flush-cache are used
* Use jsonify function that handles datetime objects in jsonfile cache plugin
* Don't access self._options directly
* Add initial integration tests for aws_ec2 inventory plugin
* Add CI alias
* Fix and add a few more unit tests
* Add integration tests for constructed
* Fix typo
* Use inventory config templates
* Collect all instances that are not terminated by default
* Create separate playbook for setting up the VPC, subnet, security group, and finding an image for the host
Create a separate playbook for removing the resources
* Allow easier grouping by region and add an example
* use a unified json encode/decode that can handle unsafe and vault
* Inventory caching
* Add inventory caching for virtualbox
* Don't populate cache for virtualbox with stdout, use a dict of inventory instead
* Fix error creating the cache dir if it doesn't exist
* Keep cache default False and set to True in VariableManager __init__
* Check all groups before determining if a host is ungrouped.
* included inventory and callback in new config
allow inventory to be configurable
updated connection options settings

* fix typo
* Using docstrings conflicts with the standard use of docstrings
* PYTHON_OPTIMIZE=2 will omit docstrings. Using docstrings makes future
changes to the plugin and module code subject to the requirement that we
ensure it won't be run with optimization.

skip ipaddr filter tests when missing netaddr
removed devnull string from config
better becoem resolution
* killed extra space with extreeme prejudice
cause its an affront against all that is holy that 2 spaces touch each other!
shippable timing out on some images, but merging as it passes most
According to the redis-py docs, zrank will return the 0 based index for
the value in the sorted set. So the logic here wasn't right to begin
with (It just means that a value at the 0-th position would never show
up as cached). Need to compare against None to know if the value
exists in the cache.

On Python3 and Python2 use pickle slightly differently so we need to be
explicit about some things.
If pickles could be shared between python2 and python3, as in
ansible-connection and the pickle cache, we need to specify the protocol
to use when dumping and the encoding to use for byte strings when
loading.
The dumping protocol needs to be no higher than 2 as python-2 only
supports up to protocol 2. The encoding should usually be 'bytes' so
that python2 str type becomes python3 bytes type. However, doing this
means that we must make sure that the objects being serialized properly
make their strings into text strings except when they're supposed to be
bytes. If strings are improperly byte strings, they may cause
tracebacks on the receiving end
* Update module_utils.six to latest
We've been held back on the version of six we could use on the module
side to 1.4.x because of python-2.4 compatibility. Now that our minimum
is Python-2.6, we can update to the latest version of six in
module_utils and get rid of the second copy in lib/ansible/compat.
Made ansible-doc more plugin agnostic
We can have docs in lookup, callback, connectionm strategy, etc
Use first docstring and make pepizis happy
generalized module_docs to plugin_docs
documented cartesian, ssh, default, jsonfile, etc as examples
changed lack of docs to warning when listing
made smarter about bad docstrings
better blacklisting
added handling of options/config/envs/etc
move blacklist to find_plugins, only need once
added new base class for file based cache plugins as 99% of code was common
now also catches unexpected decoding exceptions
allows per module file modes and encoding
moved jsonfile code to base
If 'fact_caching=jsonfile' was configured, but
'fact_caching_connection' was not configured, jsonfile
would fail and ansible-playbook would exit with a traceback.
Fixes#17566
* Add support for no-expiration to jsonfile cache
* Let memcached cache use fact_caching_timeout=0
If fact_cache=memcached and fact_caching_timeout=0
memcached would hit a NameError on _expire_keys
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.
* Allow to make the jsonfile cache files pretty (indented and sorted)
Since the json cache files are condensed, it is not very practical to look for something in them. Having indented/sorted cache files makes debugging and playbook/inventory development a lot easier to do.
I made it configurable in case people would object to the performance hit this would have, but to be honest, then they probably should be looking at other cache plugins instead IMO.
* Removed the config option and documentation changes
