- The passage beginning "Note that file will not fail..." was slightly
unclear about the fact that it referred to the behavior of the module
when `state` is set to `absent`.
- Fixes#23203
So the xml module has a lot of parameters that combined together do
specific things. however it does not really describe which parameters
are required together, or which ones are required.
This PR fixes that situation and makes it impossible to provide
confussing parameters combinations.
Also, `pretty_print` was used as a flag to modify the output, but also
as an action to reformat the file (without other change). This is
problematic the way it was designed. This fixes that too.
This fixes#28194
This PR includes:
- Improvements to change-detection by comparing 2 objectified XML trees
- Implement better integration tests by comparing 2 files using copy
* Fixes#28444: Renamed print_match function to match_print due to name conflict
* Rename `match_print` to `do_print_match`
I think this is less confusing.
* Fix 'the the' typos, fix 'pahting' filename typo
* Change 'the the' typos to a single 'the'.
* Change `playbook_pahting.rst` to `playbook_pathing.rst`.
* Delete trailing space in ec2_vol example
Delete the trailing space in `instance: "{{ item.id }} "`, which makes the
example fail when run because it looks for instance "i-xxxx ".
This was causing wrong behaviour when `prev_state` was `hard`-link,
since the `file` module tried to apply the same `state` on the new
file, causing unexpected errors.
Particularly, both `overlay` and `devicemapper` storage drivers in
docker use hardlinks to share files between layers. This causes
most ansible playbooks to fail when working with files from layers
below.
* Optimize template
* In fixing template to handle diff correctly #24477, I introduced more
round trips to the remote end which slowed things down The new code now
uses one fewer round trips than the old code.
* Reimplement a large part of template by calling the copy action plugin
instead of doing it in template's code. This reduces the code in
template and gives us one place to fix bugs and optimize.
* Add a follow parameter to template that mirrors the follow parameters
for file and copy.
* Fix copy's diff handling (probably broken in my rewrite for in 2.4
development)
* Adjusted when copy creates tmp dirs to rduce round trips in copy and
template.
Fixes#27956
* Fix idempotency for Unix permissions in zip files.
This fix prevents the unarchive module from reporting 'changed' when a zipfile contains items with Unix permissions that differ from the system default.
* Update zip unarchive tests.
Additional tests for the unarchive module with zip files:
- Test file in zip archive with non-default permissions
- Test file added to zip archive with Windows permissions
* Additional fix for mixed win/unix archives.
Turns out my original fix fails under some mixed archives, as setting the umask to zero can be applied to those files. This creates a per-file umask variable, so a mix of permission types don't cause problems.
* CI Checks
CI checks for archives with:
* non default Unix permissions
* Windows permissions
* Workaround for BSD differences.
Using Zipinfo due to lack of support in BSD unzip.
Permissions handling is also different in BSD -- always applies UMASK to file permissions.
* Added checks for creating directories and SSH keys for existing users.
* Import original unmodified upstream version
This is another attempt to get the xml module upstream.
https://github.com/cmprescott/ansible-xml/
This is the original file from upstream,
without commit 1e7a3f6b6e2bc01aa9cebfd80ac5cd4555032774
* Add additional changes required for upstreaming
This PR includes the following changes:
- Clean up of DOCUMENTATION
- Rename "ensure" parameter to "state" parameter (kept alias)
- Added EXAMPLES
- Remove explicit type-case using str() for formatting
- Clean up AnsibleModule parameter handling
- Retained Python 2.4 compatibility
- PEP8 compliancy
- Various fixes as suggested by abadger during first review
This fixescmprescott/ansible-xml#108
* Added original integration tests
There is some room for improvement wrt. idempotency and check-mode
testing.
* Some tests depend on lxml v3.0alpha1 or higher
We are now expecting lxml v2.3.0 or higher.
We skips tests if lxml is too old.
Plus small fix.
* Relicense to GPLv3+ header
All past contributors have agreed to relicense this module to GPLv2+, and GPLv3 specifically.
See: https://github.com/cmprescott/ansible-xml/issues/113
This fixescmprescott/ansible-xml#73
* Fix small typo in integration tests
* Python 3 support
This PR also includes:
- Python 3 support
- Documentation fixes
- Check-mode fixes and improvements
- Bugfix in check-mode support
- Always return xmlstring, even if there's no change
- Check for lxml 2.3.0 or newer
* Add return values
* Various fixes after review
Since the module's path parameter is of the AnsibleModule type path
it's already being expanded. Hence no need to have the
set_fs_attributes_if_different method do its own expand.
This additional expand is an actual problem when the file module runs
recursively, as real existing file names can be mistakenly expanded to
something completely wrong and non-existing.
Fixes#25005Fixes#25639
* Reimplement iso_extract using 7zip (not requiring root)
So one of the drawbacks of the original implementation is that it required root for mounting/unmount the ISO image.
This is now no longer needed as we use 7zip for extracting files from the ISO.
* Fall back to using mount/umount if 7zip not found
As discussed with others.
Also improved integration tests.
Added fix for missing imports and boilerplate in files modules,
also, removed get_exception calls to match 2.6> exception handling.

Archive.py allows you to pass a glob path of files to archive.
This allows end users to glob a dir, and exlude a list of dirs
from the archive which are not necessary.
* Add example of templating inline using copy module
The **copy** module documentation implies that `content:` only works
for 'simple values' and for complex stuff you need the **template**
module, but that is an understatement. You can use **copy** to template
anything you desire.
So I changed the wording, added an example, and also added a note
to the template module that the **copy** module could be used for
'inline templating'.
This fixes#19741.
unsafe_writes currently allows updating a file that can be updated but
not removed (for instance, when docker mounted). This change also
allows unsafe_writes to write to writable files in unwritable dirs. For
instance, if a system has made a single file inside of /etc/ writable to
a specific normal user.
Fixes#14961
* We need a directory walker that can handle symlinks, empty directories,
and some other odd needs. This commit contains a directory walker that
can do all that. The walker returns information about the files in the
directories that we can then use to implement different strategies for
copying the files to the remote machines.
* Add local_follow parameter to copy that follows local symlinks (follow
is for remote symlinks)
* Refactor the copying of files out of run into its own method
* Add new integration tests for copy
Fixes#24949Fixes#21513
* Fix symlink handling
On symlinks, make lnk_source return the absolute path of the target of the symlink.
Add a new return field lnk_target that returns the actual, unexpanded path to the target of the symlink.
This is a new fix to replace #20361 due to the synchronize module changing
sufficiently to make that commit no longer merge cleanly.
Fixes#20361

* Mutually reference Windows and non-Windows modules
To make it easier for Windows or non-Windows users to find the relevant
module information, we are mutually referencing both variants in their
documentation.
We are also adding a special note if a module works on both Windows and
non-Windows targets.
