* vmware_guest: Add support for Linked Clones
* Resolve PEP8 Issues
* Change snapshot_name to snapshot_src
* Add additional option 'snapshot_linked' to specify whether to use a linked clone or not
* Changed snapshot_linked parameter to "linked_clone"
* Remove unnecessary conditional
Fixes issue [#24078](https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/24078)
Resource pools are retrieved from VSphere regardless of the state of the `resource_pool` parameter. During this process, each retrieved Resource Pool is checked for the `parent` attribute, and if it exists, the currently-scoped parent object is compared against the Resource Pool's parent object. The method doing the check, however, `assert`s that the parent object is not `None`. In some cases, a Resource Pool will have the `parent` attr, but that `parent` object will be `None`, causing the `assert` to fail.
This should avoid that. :-)
* Adding first checkin of resource_pool module
* fixing length issues and indentation multipliers
* mend
* mend
* mend
* remove * import from modules
* Add space on variable assignments
* changing line 321 to less characters
* fixing pep8 issues
* mend
* cleaning up example section
* Add RETURN section
* adding spacing to list
* all spacing consistent now
* move imports as per CI
Due to how the result-dictionary is being used, in some codepaths it would have an empty dictionary.
This then is problematic if the code expects the 'changed' key later on.
I also improved the docs a bit, by clearly marking the parameter names and URL in the documentation.
Changes to the metadata format were approved here:
https://github.com/ansible/proposals/issues/54
* Update documentation to the new metadata format
* Changes to metadata-tool to account for new metadata
* Add GPL license header
* Add upgrade subcommand to upgrade metadata version
* Change default metadata to the new format
* Fix exclusion of non-modules from the metadata report
* Fix ansible-doc for new module metadata
* Exclude metadata version from ansible-doc output
* Fix website docs generation for the new metadata
* Update metadata schema in valiate-modules test
* Update the metadata in all modules to the new version
* Move gather_facts action outside of vmware_guest module
* Move facts gathering method to vmware.py library
* vmware_guest use some vmware.py library methods
* vmware.py lib: fix some PEP 8 issues
* Move snapshot actions to vmware_guest_snapshot
* Move common snapshot facts to vmware.py library
* Update validate-modules
* Validates ANSIBLE_METADATA
* Ensures imports happen after documentation vars
* Some pep8 cleanup
* Clean up some left over unneeded code
* Update modules for new module guidelines and validate-modules checks
* Update imports for ec2_vpc_route_table and ec2_vpc_nat_gateway
After merging the latest update, these were the few remaining
differences with upstream.
(Plus the previous proposed fast match based on unique VM name which is
not longer needed)
* vmware_guest: networks definition as a list
Currently the networks definition is a dict, with the network range as
key. This is problematic if the network information is coming from other
sources.
This patch turns the networks definition into a list.
This fixes#19222.
* Remove the option to provide either netmask or network
It is more concise if there's only one way to configure it.
So provide both `ip` and `network`.
(I also re-indented a section due to a useless check)
* Fix bugs reported by @dav1x
Thanks !
Changes missing from a poor merge probably, but also a few new things.
- Reordered the examples from important (often used) to less important
(fewer used)
- Remove the new_name: option and replace it with the uuid/name
combination for renaming + added example
- Added an example using the VM uuid instead of the VM name
- Also check whether the password is non-empty (rogue merge)
- Wait for all tasks to finish (to be sure the new facts reflect the
state)
- Ensure that on failure we still set the change-bit
- Moved a set of functions that are unused (related to transfering
files to guest, or running commands) to module_utils
