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 availability_zone docs to each OpenStack module
This argument is in the central list for hysterical raisins (mostly me
being a doofus) but is used in almost none of them. Document it
explicitly in each module to stop the confusion.
* Fix two docs formatting bugs
* 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
A change was merged to the main Ansible core code that can cause
a potential hang if any libraries are called that use threading.
This change was:
4b0aa1214c
This affected the os_object module by causing a hang on the shade
create_object() API call (which in turn calls swiftclient which
uses threading). The fix is to make sure all modules have a main()
that is wrapped with an "if __name__ == '__main__'" check.
A change is coming to Ansible where module params will default to str.
Many of our modules were taking advantage of this by not being explicit
about the type, so they will break when that change merges. This hopefully
catches those cases.
The exception message, when shade fails, will contain much more
specific information about the failure if the exception is treated
as a string. The 'message' attribute alone is usually not helpful.
The min_disk and min_ram parameters were not being passed to
the shade API. They also need to be integer values. Also
updated the description of these parameters for better
clarification.
