* implicit localhost connection local
* ansible-doc -s is supposed to output a sample snippet of how you could
add the module into a playbook. These changes update the style:
* Use yaml mappings instead of key=value
* Use the module name directly instead of action: modulename
* Fixes a bug when displaying option descritpions which are yaml strings
instead of lists.
This fixes in code the bad formatting reported in #24201
In current stable (2.2), ansible galaxy install --force do erase
a role, even if the version is not set. This commit should restore
that specific behavior, in accordance to people reports:
https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/11266#issuecomment-273801480
It was also the behavior planned in the initial discussion:
"if you're not fixing versions in your roles file, then it's fine
to expect that the role will be reinstalled each time you run
ansible-galaxy install.", cf https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/12904
* Update module_utils.six to latest
We've been held back on the version of six we could use on the module
side to 1.4.x because of python-2.4 compatibility. Now that our minimum
is Python-2.6, we can update to the latest version of six in
module_utils and get rid of the second copy in lib/ansible/compat.
Made ansible-doc more plugin agnostic
We can have docs in lookup, callback, connectionm strategy, etc
Use first docstring and make pepizis happy
generalized module_docs to plugin_docs
documented cartesian, ssh, default, jsonfile, etc as examples
changed lack of docs to warning when listing
made smarter about bad docstrings
better blacklisting
added handling of options/config/envs/etc
move blacklist to find_plugins, only need once

* 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)
* Add role skeleton support
The default role skeleton used by ansible-galaxy is good, but it doesn't
allow organizations to customize it to suit their needs. This patch
addresses that by adding the option to point ansible-galaxy at a
role skeleton directory. The contents of this directory are then
copied (or rendered) into the output role directory. Appropriate
command line options and configuration entries are added to allow for
further customization from the role skeleton.
* Remove dependency on platforms list from test
Platforms are no longer provided to the template by galaxy init.
Removing the code in our test meta/main.yml template that relied on it.
* Fix whitespace issue
'encrypt_string' only options were being referenced when using
other vault subcommands. That code is moved inside a check
for 'encrypt_string' action now.
