* Revert "Account for empty string regexp in lineinfile (#41451)"
This reverts commit 4b5b4a760c.
* Use context managers for interacting with files
* Store line and regexp parameters in a variable
* Add warning when regexp is an empty string
* Remove '=' from error messages
* Update warning message and add changelog
* Add tests
* Improve warning message
Offer an equivalent regexp that won't trigger the warning.
Update tests to match new warning.
* Add porting guide entry for lineinfile change
* Use context managers for interacting with files
* Account for empty string as regexp
Rather than explicitly testing for None, also test for an empty string which will evaluate to False. An empty string regexp matches every line, which ends up replacing the incorrect line.
* Store line parameter in a variable
* Add tests
If a line match is found in the file and no regexp is specified, insertbefore would improperly try to add a line if set to BOF.
Add tests for this scenario.
* fix: exclude using wildcards for tar archives
Fixes#37842, #22947
* fix: Remove quote() as it munges the exclude format
* test: Refactor to use single archive structure
A common structure archived by different methods should simplify some of
the feature tests.
* test: Use common archive layout to validate exclude feature
* test: Use the same exclude checks for zip/tar archives
There were bugs in this that needed to be resolved. No time to get the
fix reviewed sufficiently for 2.6.0.
We'll get this into 2.7.0 and try to get this into 2.6.1 as well.
Will need the work done in https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/36218
when it does get merged.
One of Ansible best practices is "Always Name Tasks".
This should include tasks in examples as well so people can learn
what is the right way to use it.
As mentioned in this answer https://stackoverflow.com/a/41549694/6778826 we was able to solve a bad behaviour of `blockinfile` module.
We must change two parts in one file which we have done in two tasks. Every run have rewriten the first block with the second block in the wrong position. **After** we have set the `marker` in the second task to another value was the `blockinfile` module able to insert both parts in the right position in the same file.
* Adding flatpak module
Includes contributions by dagwieers
* Incorporates feedback by dagwieers
* Improves and aligns documentation to conventions
* Makes matching for url more robust
* Set src in the state functions rather than the toplevel
A good API should only require passing one version of a piece of data
around so do that for src
* Move the rewriting of path into additional_parameter_handling
When the path is a directory we can rewrite the path to be a file inside
of the directory
* Emit a warning when src is used with a state where it should be ignored
Fixes several bugs exposed in #34893
* Fixes relative path handling in copy so that it splits directories and
reconstructs the correct file path
* Return failed in the proper circumstances
This seems a little like duplicating code since all of the called
functions need it but prev_state isn't part of argument parsing so it
doesn't belong in the toplevel main() function.
It feels like this repeats itself because it pulls the creation of
a byte string for path into every state function. However, it actually
cleans the API by only passing a single parameter for a thing (the path)
instead of sending it in twice.
Well organized programs should only have a few successful exit points.
This commit moves all of the successful exit points for the file module
into the main() function. Other functions return their results to the
main function which can then choose whether there is more procesing to
do before exit or not.
Use an exception to return failures rather than fail_json(). This way
we can easily catch the failures if the calling code decides it can deal
with it. This has the side effect of making it easier to unittest this
code as we can catch the expected exceptions instead of having to catch
the interpreter exiting and then parse stdout for the expected data.
* Separate the logic for each state into separate functions
* Start the process of separating out initialization (pre-processing of
parameters that cannot be done via arg spec) from the logic to
implement each state.
* Start the process of raising exceptions for errors and returning
result values from each state implementing function Goal is for all
fail_json's to be consolidated into exception handlers at the toplevel
and for there to be only one exit_json() at the toplevel.
* Remove use of six.b as Python-2.6+ have byte literals.
* Make AnsibleModule a global object so we'll have access to it in all
the functions we're going to break this up into.
* Rework the parameters so things that are in file_common_args are used
from file_common_args or the reason for deviation is documented.
* Remove validate as a parameter: this should be taken care of by
removing it from params before the copy and template action plugin
invoke file.
* Rename diff_peek to _diff_peek as it is an internal parameter.
* add module_name execute_module call to assemble so that it is more greppable
There was a traceback when setting permissions on a directory tree when
there were broken symlinks inside of the tree and follow=true. chmod -R
ignores broken symlinks inside of the tree so we've fixed the file
module to do the same.
Fixes#39456
* Fix for file module with symlinks to nonexistent target
When creating a symlink to a nonexistent target, creating the symlink
would work but subsequent runs of the task would fail because it was
trying to operate on the target instead of the symlink.
Fixes#39558
* Fixes for mode=preserve
* Document mode=preserve for template and copy
* Make mode=preserve work with remote_src for copy
* Make mode=preserve work for template
* Integration tests for copy & template mode=preserve
Fixes#39279
* Changed mode option in win_copy to hidden option as it doesn't reflect copy mode
* File module: correct description of "state"
It was probably intended to say "intermediate subdirectories will be created" and not "immediate subdirectories will be created".
* Optimize file handling
Use the best practice of opening and doing operations on an opened file

* Fix docstring to Sphinx type
- update the docstrings to Sphinx type, as suggested by Toshio
- Move the pattern object assignment outside the context manager, as
suggested by Matt
