When using hostvars to get extra connection-specific vars for connection
plugins, use this raw lookup to avoid prematurely templating all of the
hostvar data (triggering unnecessary lookups).
Fixes#17024
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.
for `VariableManager._get_magic_variables()`.
This saves a lot of time re-iterating the nearly always constant global
list of groups and their members.
Generate once and cache, and invalidate cache in case `add_host:` or
`group_by:` are used.

The flag new_pb_basedir is not being utilized in Inventory._get_hostgroup_vars,
leading to the situation where an inventory with no playbook basedir set will
read host/group vars from the $CWD, regardless of the inventory and/or playbook
relative location. This patch corrects that by not using the playbook basedir
if it is unset (None).
This patch also corrects a bug in which the VariableManager would accumulate
host/group vars files, which could lead to incorrect vars files being used when
playbooks are run from different directories containing their own group/host vars
directories.
Fixes#16953
* Revert "There can be only one localhost"
This reverts commit 5f1bbb4fcd.
this broke several usages of localhost, see #16882, #16898 and #16886
* ensure there is only 1 localhost
fixes#16886, #16882 and #16898
- make sure localhost exists before returning it
- optimzed host caching
- ensure we always return a host object
This bug was introduced in 3ced6d3, where getting vars from a role
did not follow the dep chain. This was originally hidden by the fact
that we got vars twice (from the block and from the roles directly).
Fixes#16729
Also updates doc on variable precedence, as it was incorrect for the
order of play vars/vars_prompt/vars_files in relation to set_fact and
registered variables.
Fixes#14702Fixes#14826
* In the VariableManager, we were not properly tracking if a file
had already been loaded, so we continuously append data to the end
of the list there for host and group vars, meaning large sets of data
are duplicated multiple times
* In the inventory, we were merging the host/group vars with the vars
local to the host needlessly, as the VariableManager already handles that.
This leads to needless duplication of the data and makes combining the
vars in VariableManager take even longer.
Child blocks (whether nested or via includes) don't get a copy of the
dependency chain, so the above method should be used to ensure the block
looks at its parents dep chain.
Fixes#15996
In VariableManager, we fetch the params specifically in the next step,
so including them in the prior step is unnecessary and could lead to things
being overridden in an improper order.
In Block, we should not be getting the params for the role as they are
included earlier via the VariableManager.
Fixes#14411
* Make role param resolution follow the role dependency chain, rather
than using all roles within the play
* Also move params to be merged in after role vars in general, to match
our variable precedence rules
* Changes to the way var lookup is done in role helper methods for
get_vars(), get_inherited_vars(), and get_role_params() to make the
above possible without trampling on previously merged vars
Fixes#14472Fixes#14475
Looks like someone forgot to create an instance of undefined here- we were returning the undefined type object, which broke all the undefined checks.
Added an integration test around add_host that will catch this (separate PR to follow)
Also displays a warning now, because users should not be using that variable
name as it causes a collision with the internal variable of the same name.
The first call to persisting facts would work due to the assignment of a
MutableMapping calling __setitem__ but subsequent module fact data would
not be propogated to the fact cache plugins because update() doesn't
invoke __setitem__. This changes the behavior a little bit and ensures
set() is called on cache plugins.
Also does some reorganization/cleanup on the magic vars/delegated
variable generation portions of VariableManager to make the above
possible.
Fixes#12633
Due to the way we're now calculating delegate_to, if that value is based
on a loop variable ('item') we need to calculate all of the possible
delegated_to variables for that loop.
Fixes#12499
Follow up to 8769f03c, which allows the undefined var error to be raised
if we're getting vars with a full context (play/host/task) and the host
has already gathered facts. In this way, vars_files containing variables
that fail to be templated are not silently ignored.
Now, instead of relying on hostvars on the executor side, we compile
the vars for the delegated to host in a special internal variable and
have the PlayContext object look for things there when applying task/
var overrides, which is much cleaner and takes advantage of the code
already dealing with all of the magic variable variations.
Fixes#12127Fixes#12079
The earlier distinction was never used; .ipv6_address was always a copy
of .ipv4_address, and the latter was always used to set the remote_addr
field in the PlayContext.
Also uses the canonical ansible_host/ansible_port names when setting the
address and port from variables.
These used to go in vars_cache, so merging them in after that as they
are "live" variables and the user would most likely want to see these
above anything else.
Required some rewiring in inventory code to make sure we're using
the DataLoader class for some data file operations, which makes mocking
them much easier.
Also identified two corner cases not currently handled by the code, related
to inventory variable sources and which one "wins". Also noticed we weren't
properly merging variables from multiple group/host_var file locations
(inventory directory vs. playbook directory locations) so fixed as well.
* Fixes hostvar serialization issue (#12005)
* Fixes regression in include_vars from within a role (#9498), where
we had the precedence order for vars_cache (include_vars, set_fact)
incorrectly before role vars.
* Fixes another bug in which vars loaded from files in the format of
a list instead of dictionary would cause a failure.
Fixes#9498Fixes#12005
* Speed up serialization of hostvars by simply using the internal
dictionary used for cached lookups
* Use blocking gets/puts on queues instead of spin locking
* Merge sequential implicitly created blocks
* Prompt had to be moved up, as it needed to be done before the first
templating of the play occurs, otherwise vars_files won't be templated
properly
* Fixed a bug related to an earlier fix of vars_files incorporating
extra vars to do the templating of the file name
Fixes#11404
This addresses a specific case with multiple vars files
in a group_vars/${groupname}/ directory where one of those files
is empty, which returns None instead of an empty dict.
Also adds play information into the hostvars creation, to assure the
variable manager used there has access to vars and vars_files
