So the xml module has a lot of parameters that combined together do
specific things. however it does not really describe which parameters
are required together, or which ones are required.
This PR fixes that situation and makes it impossible to provide
confussing parameters combinations.
Also, `pretty_print` was used as a flag to modify the output, but also
as an action to reformat the file (without other change). This is
problematic the way it was designed. This fixes that too.
This fixes#28194
This PR includes:
- Improvements to change-detection by comparing 2 objectified XML trees
- Implement better integration tests by comparing 2 files using copy
* Fixes#28444: Renamed print_match function to match_print due to name conflict
* Rename `match_print` to `do_print_match`
I think this is less confusing.
* Fix 'the the' typos, fix 'pahting' filename typo
* Change 'the the' typos to a single 'the'.
* Change `playbook_pahting.rst` to `playbook_pathing.rst`.
* Delete trailing space in ec2_vol example
Delete the trailing space in `instance: "{{ item.id }} "`, which makes the
example fail when run because it looks for instance "i-xxxx ".
* Import original unmodified upstream version
This is another attempt to get the xml module upstream.
https://github.com/cmprescott/ansible-xml/
This is the original file from upstream,
without commit 1e7a3f6b6e2bc01aa9cebfd80ac5cd4555032774
* Add additional changes required for upstreaming
This PR includes the following changes:
- Clean up of DOCUMENTATION
- Rename "ensure" parameter to "state" parameter (kept alias)
- Added EXAMPLES
- Remove explicit type-case using str() for formatting
- Clean up AnsibleModule parameter handling
- Retained Python 2.4 compatibility
- PEP8 compliancy
- Various fixes as suggested by abadger during first review
This fixescmprescott/ansible-xml#108
* Added original integration tests
There is some room for improvement wrt. idempotency and check-mode
testing.
* Some tests depend on lxml v3.0alpha1 or higher
We are now expecting lxml v2.3.0 or higher.
We skips tests if lxml is too old.
Plus small fix.
* Relicense to GPLv3+ header
All past contributors have agreed to relicense this module to GPLv2+, and GPLv3 specifically.
