The behavior now matches GNU diff.
Fixes#14094.

The added unit tests contain more examples.
This commit also takes care to avoid "no newline at EOF" warnings when
no_log is in effect, and also when modules return dicts rather than
strings. (It also removes trailing whitespace from using json
serialization when diffing dicts, because I hate trailing whitespace in
Python source files, even if they're test files.)
This is a redesign in how plugins call _remote_checksum().
- _remote_stat() has been modified to report the real error as
AnsiblError
- Action plugin **unarchive** calls _remote_stat() directly instead of
_remote_checksum()
- Action plugin **unarchive** also handles the exceptions directly
- Ensure get_exception() returns native text
Two other action plugins, **template** and **fetch**, also do a remote checksum.
In **template** we already call _remote_stat(), just like we now do for
unarchive, in **fetch** we do call _remote_checksum() and we make the
exact same mistake as the unarchive plugin. So that one could use a
redesign as well.

This fix ensures that if there are specific module errors (in our case
the python interpreter was not found) then command and shell returns a
proper error.
It also fixes a few other imperfections that we noticed during
troubleshooting:
- Return the real RC if it were available
- Improve a dictionary evaluation using .get()
- Return an RC of -1 if it is unknown (instead of returning 0)
This fixes#18846
* adds new error AnsibleModuleExit to handle module returns
* adds new action plugin network for attaching connection to network modules
* adds new shared module local to receive connection
* splits out function to update task_args with common updates
This commit provides a mechansim for running local modules that require
a connection object for interative commands tyically implemented for
network devices. It provides a way to locally import modules (post fork)
and run them using exception handling to exit.
For setfacl on Solaris we need to specify permissions like r-x.
For chmod, we need to specify them as rx (r-x means to make the file
readable and *not* executable)
The _fixup_perms2 method checks to see if the user that is being sudo'd
is an unprivileged user or root. If it is an unprivileged user, some
checks are done to see if becoming this user would lock the ssh user out
of temp files, among other things. If this check fails, an error prints
telling the user to check the documentation for becoming an unprivileged
user.
On some systems, the stderr prints out the unprivileged user the ssh
user was trying to become contained in smartquotes. These quotes aren't
in the ASCII range, and so when we're trying to call `str.format()` to
combine the stderr message with the error text we get a
UnicodeEncodeError as python can't coerce the smartquotes using the
system default encoding. By calling `to_native()` on the error message
we can ensure that the error message is a native string for the
`Exception` handling, as `Exception` messages need to be native strings
to avoid errors (byte strings in python2, and text strings in python3)
Fixes: #18444
* Replace pipes.quote for shlex_quote
* More migration of pipes.quote to shlex_quote
Note that we cannot yet move module code over. Modules have six-1.4
bundled which does not have shlex_quote. This shouldn't be a problem as
the function is still importable from pipes.quote. It's just that this
has become an implementation detail that makes us want to import from
shlex instead.
Once we get rid of the python2.4 dependency we can update to a newer
version of bundled six module-side and then we're free to use
shlex_quote everywhere.
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.
This is enough to get minimal copy module working on python3
We have t omodify dataloader's path_dwim_relative_stack and everything
that calls it to use text paths instead of byte string paths
Run setfacl/chown/chmod on each temp dir and file.
This fixes temp file permissions handling on platforms such as FreeBSD
which always return success when using find -exec. This is done by
eliminating the use of find when setting up temp files and directories.
Additionally, tests that now pass on FreeBSD have been enabled for CI.
* switch cwd to basedir of task
This restores previous behaviour in pre 2.0 and allows for 'local type' plugins
and actions to have a more predictable relative path.
fixes#14489
* removed FIXME since prev commit 'fixes' this
* fix tests, now they need a loader (thanks jimi!)
* fixed lookup search path
added ansible_search_path var that contains the proper list and in order
removed roledir var which was only used by first_found, rest used role_path
added needle function for lookups that mirrors the action plugin one, now
both types of plugins use same pathing.
* added missing os import
* renamed as per feedback
* fixed missing rename in first_found
* also fixed first_found
* fixed import to match new error class
* fixed getattr ref
* smarter function to figure out relative paths
takes list of paths in order of relevance to current task
and does the dwim magic on them
* shared function for action plugins using new dwim
unify path construction and error info/messaging
made include and role non exclusive
corrected order and now smarter about tasks
includes inside roles are currently broken as they don't provide the correct role data
make dirname full match to avoid corner cases
* migrated action plugins to new dwim function
reported plugins to use exceptions instead of info
* clarified needle
This removes the extra layer of quotes around values in the 'args' file.
These quotes were there before the pipes.quote() call was added, but
were not removed, resulting in too much quoting.
Problem: When setting the file permissions on the remote server for
unprivileged users ansible expects that a chown will fail for unprivileged
users. For some systems (e.g. HP-UX) this is not the case.
Solution: Change the order how ansible sets the remote permissions.
* If the remote_user sudo's to an unprivileged user then we attempt to
grant the unprivileged user access via file system acls.
* If granting file system acls fails we try to change the owner of the
file with chown which only works in case the remote_user is privileged
or the remote systems allows chown calls by unprivileged users (e.g.
HP-UX)
* If the chown fails we can set the file to be world readable so that
the second unprivileged user can read the file. Since this could allow
other users to get access to private information we only do this
ansible is configured with "allow_world_readable_tmpfiles" in the
ansible.cfg
* Give a module the possibility to known its own name
This is useful for logging and reporting and fixes the longstanding problem with syslog-messages:
May 30 15:50:11 moria ansible-<stdin>: Invoked with ...
now becomes:
Jun 1 17:32:03 moria ansible-copy: Invoked with ...
This fixes#15830
* Rename the internal name from module.ansible_module_name to module._name
* Port urls.py to python3
Fixes (largely normalizing byte vs text strings) for python3
* Rework what we do with attributes that aren't set already.
