* show original exception for yaml (and other) errors
In places where we need to catch a yaml error and raise
an AnsibleError, add the orig yaml exc to the AnsibleError
via the orig_exc arg.
When the AnsibleError is displayed it will now include the
AnsibleError (AnsibleParserError for example) and the type
and message from the original yaml exception.
This provides more detail to the error messages related to
yaml errors.
This also improves errors from dataloader (for example,
previously if a wrong password was used for a vault encrypted
yaml file, the error was very vague and suggested yaml errors,
but now the message includes the original exception from vault
indicating the password was incorrect or missing).
Add a text note to playbook helper asserts. For playbook
syntax/layout errors that aren't yaml errors, but errors
indicating invalid data structures for a playbook/task/role/block,
we now include some info about where the assert was and
why it was raised.
In places we raise an AnsibleParserError in an except
clause, pass the original exception to AnsibleParserError via
orig_exc arg.
Make assorted error messages a little more specific (like
the playbook helper load methods)
* Revert "Include the original YAML error in syntax error messages"
This reverts commit 781bb44b02.
template/__init__.py imported unsafe_proxy from vars which caused
vars/__init__.py to load. vars/__init__.py needed template/__init__.py
which caused issues. Loading unsafe_proxy from another location fixes
that.
* Retain vault password as bytes in 2.2
Prior to 2.2.1, the vault password was read in as byes and then remained
bytes all the way through the code. A bug existed where bytes and text
were mixed, leading to a traceback with non-ascii passwords. In devel,
this was fixed by changing the read in password to text type to match
with our overall strategy of converting at the borders. This was
backported to stable-2.2 for the 2.2.1 release.
On reflection, this should not have been backported as it causes
passwords which were originally non-utf-8 to become utf-8. People will
then have their working 2.2.x vault files become in-accessible.
this commit pipes bytes all the way through the system for vault
password. That way if a password is read in as a non-utf-8 character
sequence, it will continue to work in 2.2.2+. This change is only for
the 2.2 branch, not for 2.3 and beyond.
Why not everywhere? The reason is that non-utf-8 passwords will cause
problems when vault files are shared between systems or users. If the
password is read from the prompt and one user/machine has a latin1
encoded locale while a second one has utf-8, the non-ascii password
typed in won't match between machines. Deal with this by making sure
that when we encrypt the data, we always use valid utf-8.
Fixes#20398
(cherry picked from commit 5dcce0666a81917c68b76286685642fd72d84327)
* added docs for vault and made trigger shorter: !vault
* added single var valuting
* Update playbooks_vault.rst
Edit pass for spelling and grammar. Ship it!
* Update playbooks_vault.rst
Typo fixes.
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.
Make !vault-encrypted create a AnsibleVaultUnicode
yaml object that can be used as a regular string object.
This allows a playbook to include a encrypted vault
blob for the value of a yaml variable. A 'secret_password'
variable can have it's value encrypted instead of having
to vault encrypt an entire vars file.
Add __ENCRYPTED__ to the vault yaml types so
template.Template can treat it similar
to __UNSAFE__ flags.
vault.VaultLib api changes:
- Split VaultLib.encrypt to encrypt and encrypt_bytestring
- VaultLib.encrypt() previously accepted the plaintext data
as either a byte string or a unicode string.
Doing the right thing based on the input type would fail
on py3 if given a arg of type 'bytes'. To simplify the
API, vaultlib.encrypt() now assumes input plaintext is a
py2 unicode or py3 str. It will encode to utf-8 then call
the new encrypt_bytestring(). The new methods are less
ambiguous.
- moved VaultLib.is_encrypted logic to vault module scope
and split to is_encrypted() and is_encrypted_file().
Add a test/unit/mock/yaml_helper.py
It has some helpers for testing parsing/yaml
Integration tests added as roles test_vault and test_vault_embedded
