* Adding aliases for field attributes and renaming async attribute
As of Python 3.7, the use of async raises an error, whereas before the use
of the reserved word was ignored. This adds an alias field for field attrs
so that both async and async_val (interally) work. This allows us to be
backwards-compatible with 3rd party plugins that may still reference Task.async,
but for the core engine to work on Py3.7+.
* Remove files fixed for 'async' usage from the python 3.7 skip list
* test/: PEP8 compliancy
- Make PEP8 compliant
* Python3 chokes on casting int to bytes (#24952)
But if we tell the formatter that the var is a number, it works
* Fix synchronize retries
The synchronize module munges its task args on every invocation of
run(). This was problematic because the munged data was not fit for use
by a second pass of the synchronize module. Correct this by using a copy
of the task args on every invocation of run() so that the original args
are not affected.
Local testing using this playbook seems to confirm that things work as
expected:
- hosts: all
tasks:
- delay: 2
register: task_result
retries: 1
until: task_result.rc == 0
synchronize:
dest: /tmp/out
mode: pull
src: /tmp/nonexistent/
fixes#18281
* Update synchroncization fixture assertions
When we started operating on a copy of the task args the test assertions
were no longer asserting things about the munged state but of the
pristine state. Convert the copy of task args to a class member so that
it can be compared against later in testing and update the assertions to
check this munged copy.
* Shuffle objects around for cleaner testing
Attach the temporary args dict to the task rather than the action as
this makes updating the existing tests cleaner.
