allows user to force persistent connection to close, needed for when
you want to benefit from changes applied to the current play but persistent connections
prevent them from being realized.
This change will now check the cli context after a module runs and if
the cli is still in config mode it will exit config mode. Also fixes a
minor issue with converting list of commands to a dict
fixes#21481
I have from time to time a need of random password without
wanting to write them down (one example is mailman list creation,
that requires a password to be given to be sent to the list owner).
But using /dev/null do not return null, but the empty string, which
doesn't generate a password at all and so do not achieve my use case.
hashlib hashes operate on byte strings. When given a text string on
Python3, hashlib backtraces. When given a text string on Python2,
hashlib will backtrace if the string contains non-ascii characters.
Encode the text string to utf-8 prior to hashing to avoid this problem.
Fixes#21452
* removes unused code
* removes module_utils/local.py
* removes plugins/action/network.py
* removes action_handler from connection plugins
* removes code to use action_handler in task_executor
* updates action plugins to subclass from normal
This completes the refactor of the nxos modules to use the persistent
connection. It also updates all of the nxos modules to use the
new connection module and preserves use of nxapi as well.
* updates all iosxr modules to support persistent socket
* adds iosxr action plugin to connect to device
* adds exec_command() to iosxr shared module
* fixes iosxr_config and iosxr_template local action
* update all unit test cases
* adds base test module for iosxr module testing
* fixes issue with load_provider() not checking for an existing key
* adds updates to eos_config results key
* lots of minor syntax fixes in eos shared module
* adds eos_argument_spec to eos_eapi
fixes#21402
When loading the params in the local action, the provider key was
inadvertently being loaded as well. This created the circular
reference. The load_provider() method will now check for the provider
key and skip it when encountered.
fixes#21399
* updates eos modules to use persistent connection socket
* removes split eos shared module and combines into one
* adds singular eos doc frag (eos_local to be removed after module updates)
* updates unit test cases
* adds conversion to command dict into ios shared lib
* fixes hardware commands in ios_facts
* adds network_os value to play_context in ios action plugin
fixes#21190
* updates all vyos modules to use socket connection
* adds vyos local action handler
* adds exec_command() to vyos
* updates vyos_config local action
* update unit test cases
* add base class for testing vyos modules
* updates all ios modules to support persistent socket
* adds ios action plugin to connect to device
* adds exec_command() to ios shared module
* fixes ios_config and ios_template local action
* update all unit test cases
* adds base test module for ios module testing
* Add a surrogate_then_replace error strategy to keep to_bytes from tracebacking by default
* Port all code that explicitly used surrogate_or_replace to surrogate_then_replace
* replaces persistent connection digest with _create_control_path()
* adds _ansible_socket to _legal_inputs in basic.py
* adds connection_user to play_context
* maps remote_user to connection_user when connection is local
* maps ansible_socket in task_vars to module_args _ansible_socket if exists
- centralized skipping
- also fixed module name broken by previous refactor
- let action modules handle async processing
- moved async into base action class's module exec
- action plugins can now run final action as async
- actually skip copy if base skips
- fixed normal for new paths
- ensure internal stat is never async
- default poll to 10 as per docs
- added hint for callback fix on poll
- restructured late tmp, now a pipeline query
- moving action handler to connection as networking does
- fixed network assumption invocation is always passed
- centralized key cleanup, normalized internal var
- _supress_tmpdir_delete now in _ansible_xxx and gets removed from results
- delay internal key removal till after we use em
- nicer tmp removing, using existing methods
- moved cleanup tmp flag to mking tmp func
At the moment, this change will use EPoll on Linux, KQueue on *BSDs,
etc, so it should alleviate problems with too many open file
descriptors.
* Bundle a copy of selectors2 so that we have the selectors API everywhere.
* Add licensing information to selectors2 file so it's clear what the
licensing terms and conditions are.
* Exclude the bundled copy of selectors2 from our boilerplate code-smell test
* Rewrite ssh_run tests to attempt to work around problem with mocking
select on shippable
Fixes#14143
* Make the module_utils path configurable
* Add a config value to define the path site module_utils files
* Handle module_utils that do not have source as an error
* Make an integration test for module_utils envvar working
* Add documentation for the ANSIBLE_MODULE_UTILS config option/envvar
* Add it to the sample ansible.cfg
* Add it to intro_configuration.
* Also modify intro_configuration to place envvars on equal footing with
the config options (will need to document the envvar names in the
future)
* Also add the ANSIBLE_LIBRARY use case from
https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/15432 so we can close out
that bug.
* Check for the prompt as a substring of the output
sudo sometimes spits out warnings to stdout before getting to the
password prompt. Account for that when trying to match a password
prompt.
Fixes#20858
We need to use ssh_executable instead of hardcoding ssh in the command
we run but we need to use "ssh" when we lookup the value of the
{command}_extra_args variable. Do this by leaving binary as "ssh" and
only expanding when we place it into b_command.
Fixes#20862
* A method to validate and alter the ssh control path automatically.
* First tries %C to use the shortened hash
* On further failure, it removes section by section from the original path
* Fix hostname
* Implement bcoca's suggested changes
* Remove unused option
* Remove unused class var
* Use to_string to avoid unicode error
* Switch from to_text to to_bytes
* Update the example config for the new controlpath feature
This version just gets the relevant paths from PluginLoader and then
uses the existing imp.find_plugin() calls in the AnsiballZ code to load
the proper module_utils.
Modify PluginLoader to optionally omit subdirectories (module_utils
needs to operate on top level dirs, not on subdirs because it has
a hierarchical namespace whereas all other plugins use a flat
namespace).
Rename snippet* variables to module_utils*
Add a small number of unittests for recursive_finder
Add a larger number of integration tests to demonstrate that
module_utils is working.
Whitelist module-style shebang in test target library dirs
Prefix module_data variable with b_ to be clear that it holds bytes data
added better way of adding warnings to return data
backwards compatible if warnings key already exists
added deprecations made iface more generic
changed to enforce type per item
added logging of warnings/deprecations
also display deprecations by default
