* Fix wrong example, remove strictness and fix tests
It was obvious that (because of an incorrect example) people were using
the **xml** module incorrectly, specifying the `attribute` parameter
where it was not supported (i.e. ignored).
While this functionality would have been useful, it currently returns as
if the information was requested from the parent, so we cannot simply
make it to what would be expected.
Therefor the real solution is to provide a warning when we find
incorrect use, and deprecate this use. Then later we could implement
this functionality correctly.
While troubleshooting this issue, I found that in some cases our
integration tests were not being run when we expected it.
This fixes#53459
* Change warning
* Fix weird sanity test error
* Add a comment to the deprecate-test
This PR includes:
- Improvements to change-detection by comparing 2 objectified XML trees
- Implement better integration tests by comparing 2 files using copy
* 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.
