* Begin using ArgumentSpecValidator in AnsibleModule
* Add check parameters to ArgumentSpecValidator
Add additional parameters for specifying required and mutually exclusive parameters.
Add code to the .validate() method that runs these additional checks.
* Make errors related to unsupported parameters match existing behavior
Update the punctuation in the message slightly to make it more readable.
Add a property to ArgumentSpecValidator to hold valid parameter names.
* Set default values after performining checks
* FIx sanity test failure
* Use correct parameters when checking sub options
* Use a dict when iterating over check functions
Referencing by key names makes things a bit more readable IMO.
* Fix bug in comparison for sub options evaluation
* Add options_context to check functions
This allows the parent parameter to be added the the error message if a validation
error occurs in a sub option.
* Fix bug in apply_defaults behavior of sub spec validation
* Accept options_conext in get_unsupported_parameters()
If options_context is supplied, a tuple of parent key names of unsupported parameter will be
created. This allows the full "path" to the unsupported parameter to be reported.
* Build path to the unsupported parameter for error messages.
* Remove unused import
* Update recursive finder test
* Skip if running in check mode
This was done in the _check_arguments() method. That was moved to a function that has no
way of calling fail_json(), so it must be done outside of validation.
This is a silght change in behavior, but I believe the correct one.
Previously, only unsupported parameters would cause a failure. All other checks would not be executed
if the modlue did not support check mode. This would hide validation failures in check mode.
* The great purge
Remove all methods related to argument spec validation from AnsibleModule
* Keep _name and kind in the caller and out of the validator
This seems a bit awkward since this means the caller could end up with {name} and {kind} in
the error message if they don't run the messages through the .format() method
with name and kind parameters.
* Double moustaches work
I wasn't sure if they get stripped or not. Looks like they do. Neat trick.
* Add changelog
* Update unsupported parameter test
The error message changed to include name and kind.
* Remove unused import
* Add better documentation for ArgumentSpecValidator class
* Fix example
* Few more docs fixes
* Mark required and mutually exclusive attributes as private
* Mark validate functions as private
* Reorganize functions in validation.py
* Remove unused imports in basic.py related to argument spec validation
* Create errors is module_utils
We have errors in lib/ansible/errors/ but those cannot be used by modules.
* Update recursive finder test
* Move errors to file rather than __init__.py
* Change ArgumentSpecValidator.validate() interface
Raise AnsibleValidationErrorMultiple on validation error which contains all AnsibleValidationError
exceptions for validation failures.
Return the validated parameters if validation is successful rather than True/False.
Update docs and tests.
* Get attribute in loop so that the attribute name can also be used as a parameter
* Shorten line
* Update calling code in AnsibleModule for new validator interface
* Update calling code in validate_argument_spec based in new validation interface
* Base custom exception class off of Exception
* Call the __init__ method of the base Exception class to populate args
* Ensure no_log values are always updated
* Make custom exceptions more hierarchical
This redefines AnsibleError from lib/ansible/errors with a different signature since that cannot
be used by modules. This may be a bad idea. Maybe lib/ansible/errors should be moved to
module_utils, or AnsibleError defined in this commit should use the same signature as the original.
* Just go back to basing off Exception
* Return ValidationResult object on successful validation
Create a ValidationResult class.
Return a ValidationResult from ArgumentSpecValidator.validate() when validation is successful.
Update class and method docs.
Update unit tests based on interface change.
* Make it easier to get error objects from AnsibleValidationResultMultiple
This makes the interface cleaner when getting individual error objects contained in a single
AnsibleValidationResultMultiple instance.
* Define custom exception for each type of validation failure
These errors indicate where a validation error occured. Currently they are empty but could
contain specific data for each exception type in the future.
* Update tests based on (yet another) interface change
* Mark several more functions as private
These are all doing rather "internal" things. The ArgumentSpecValidator class is the preferred
public interface.
* Move warnings and deprecations to result object
Rather than calling deprecate() and warn() directly, store them on the result object so the
caller can decide what to do with them.
* Use subclass for module arg spec validation
The subclass uses global warning and deprecations feature
* Fix up docs
* Remove legal_inputs munging from _handle_aliases()
This is done in AnsibleModule by the _set_internal_properties() method. It only makes sense
to do that for an AnsibleModule instance (it should update the parameters before performing
validation) and shouldn't be done by the validator.
Create a private function just for getting legal inputs since that is done in a couple of places.
It may make sense store that on the ValidationResult object.
* Increase test coverage
* Remove unnecessary conditional
ci_complete
* Mark warnings and deprecations as private in the ValidationResult
They can be made public once we come up with a way to make them more generally useful,
probably by creating cusom objects to store the data in more structure way.
* Mark valid_parameter_names as private and populate it during initialization
* Use a global for storing the list of additonal checks to perform
This list is used by the main validate method as well as the sub spec validation.
* Move _syslog_facitily to __init__
No good reason it should not be set for each object
* Move internal property setting to private method
* Create check_arguments() function
* Remove unused import
* Rename function to better match its behavior
Change the behavior to return a set, either empty or populated, with unsupported keys.
Accept legal_inputs as optional which will not required calling handle_aliases before calling
get_unsupported_parameters().
* Add changelog
* Rework function behavior and documentation
I realized I missed the original intent of this method when moving it to a function. It
is meant to compared the parameter keys to legal inputs always, not compare
parameter keys to argument spec keys, even though the argument spec keys should
be a subset of legal inputs.
* Add tests
* Fix typo.
* Set internal properties when handling suboptions
* Get no_log parameters from subspec
* Add changelog and unit tests
* Handle list of dicts in suboptions
Add fancy error message (this will probably haunt me)
* Update unit tests to test for list of dicts in suboptions
* Add integration tests
* Validate parameters in dict and list
In case it comes in as a string
* Make changes based on feedback, fix tests
* Simplify validators since we only need to validate dicts
Add test for suboptions passed in as strings to ensure they get validated properly and turned into a dictionary.
ci_complete
* Add a few more integration tests
* Rename method and make private
* Use is_iterable, combine transformations
* Remove unused return_values from network modules
* Improve docstrings in new functions
* Add new PASS_VAR
* Add unit tests for list_no_log_values
* Fix unit tests for Python 2.6
Refinements:
- return legal_inputs and update class properties
- remove redundant arguments from method and handle in caller
- add better exception types to method
* Add unit tests for handle_aliases
