includes changes from PR ansible/ansible#16636 and refactors for the
NetworkModule changes
new features
* ios now supports transport=restcon will additional arguments
* ModuleStub refactored into common network shared module
* import temporary get_module() function (to be removed prior to 2.2 final)
This is a temporary change to keep the get_module() function until all
of the network module refactoring is completed to avoid breaking them
in devel. The get_module() function should not be used and will be
removed before 2.2 final.
* Update IOS with new NetworkModule
* Remove redundant EOS code
* `authorize` can get rolled into NetCli
* Fix up IOS to where EOS is.
* Update IOSXR for NetworkModule
* collections is unnecessary
* add new module network
* move EOS to NetworkModule
* shell.py Python 3.x compatibility
* implements the Command class through the connection for eos
This implements a new Command class that specifies the cli command
and output format. This removes the need to batch commands through
the connection
* initial add of netcmd module
* Clarify exception handling in EOS
Also modify to EOS to standardize modules. It makes vimdiff a lot less angry
* Move IOS exception handling into Cli
* Move IOS-XR exception handling into Cli
* Move JUNOS exception handling into Cli
* Move NXOS exception handling into Cli
And reorganize to make it match the other modules
* Move OpenSwitch exception handling into Cli
More speculative restructuring here
* Ziploader proof of concept (jimi-c)
* Cleanups to proof of concept ziploader branch:
* python3 compatible base64 encoding
* zipfile compression (still need to enable toggling this off for
systems without zlib support in python)
* Allow non-wildcard imports (still need to make this recusrsive so that
we can have module_utils code that imports other module_utils code.)
* Better tracebacks: module filename is kept and module_utils directory
is kept so that tracebacks show the real filenames that the errors
appear in.
* Make sure we import modules that are used into the module_utils files that they are used in.
* Set ansible version in a more pythonic way for ziploader than we were doing in module replacer
* Make it possible to set the module compression as an inventory var
This may be necessary on systems where python has been compiled without
zlib compression.
* Refactoring of module_common code:
* module replacer only replaces values that make sense for that type of
file (example: don't attempt to replace python imports if we're in
a powershell module).
* Implement configurable shebang support for ziploader wrapper
* Implement client-side constants (for SELINUX_SPECIAL_FS and SYSLOG)
via environment variable.
* Remove strip_comments param as we're never going to use it (ruins line
numbering)
* Don't repeat ourselves about detecting REPLACER
* Add an easy way to debug
* Port test-module to the ziploader-aware modify_module()
* strip comments and blank lines from the wrapper so we send less over the wire.
* Comments cleanup
* Remember to output write the module line itself in powershell modules
* for line in lines strips the newlines so we have to add them back in
This commit address to issues in the eos shard module. The first one
is a bug fix for returning the running config when the transport is eapi.
The shared module will now return config text instead of an object. The
second is a optimization that delays when the eos module connects to the
remote devices. This provies a performance enhancement when using
ssh since the module doesn't default to connecting immediately
This commit fixes a situation where connection errors would be caught
but no useful information display. The connection error is now caught
and emitted in a call to fail_json
The eos shared module should prefer to use explicit task arguments over
arguments provided through the provider. This fixes a problem where
that was not the case
Adds a new argument `provider` to the eos shared module and updates the
eos doc fragment. This commit includes some additional minor fixes and
code refactors for naming conventions. The `provider` argument allows the
shared module arguments to be passed as a dict object instead of having
to pass each argument invididually.
This adds a shared module for communicating with Arista EOS devices over
SSH (cli) or JSON-RPC (eapi). This modules replaces the eapi.py module
previously added to module_utils. This commit includes a documentation
fragment that describes the eos common arguments
