* Allow protection of certain keys during camel_to_snake
Create an `ignore_list` parameter that preserves the case
of the contents of certain dictionaries. Most valuable
for `tags` but other uses might arise.
* Port ec2_vpc_route_table to boto3
Update tests to reflect fixes in boto3.
* Add RETURN documentation to ec2_vpc_route_table
* Update DOCUMENTATION to be valid yaml
* Add check mode tests
* basic.py: add mock to os.path.exists
* set_*_if_different: if check_mode enabled & file missing: set changed to True
Fixes#32676
Thanks to mscherer and Spredzy for the distributed triplet programming
session!
* update version parsing and move requirements to nso_* modules
prepare for introduction of nso_show module that has other version
requirements than the existing nso_* modules.
* Add nso_show module for retreiving config from Cisco NSO
New module that supports getting configuration and operational data
from Cisco NSO.
* WIP adds network subnetting functions
* adds functions to convert between netmask and masklen
* adds functions to verify netmask and masklen
* adds function to dtermine network and subnet from address / mask pair
* network_common: add a function to get the first 48 bits in a IPv6 address.
ec2_group: only use network bits of a CIDR.
* Add tests for CIDRs with host bits set.
* ec2_group: add warning if CIDR isn't the networking address.
* Fix pep8.
* Improve wording.
* fix import for network utils
* Update tests to use pytest instead of unittest
* add test for to_ipv6_network()
* Fix PEP8
Split the one monolithic test for basic.py into several files
* Split test_basic.py along categories.
This is preliminary to get a handle on things. Eventually we may want
to further split it so each file is only testing a single function.
* Cleanup unused imports from splitting test_basic.py
* Port atomic_move test to pytest.
Working on getting rid of need to maintain procenv
* Split a test of symbolic_mode_to_octal to follow unittest best practices
Each test should only invoke the function under test once
* Port test_argument_spec to pytest.
* Fix suboptions failure
Allow CamelCase version of snake_dict_to_camel_dict
(currently only dromedaryCase is supported)
Add reversible option to camel_dict_to_snake_dict
Add tests for both of these options
* Deprecate Entity, EntityCollection and use subspec in network modules
* As per proposal https://github.com/ansible/proposals/issues/76
deprecate use of Entity, EntityCollection, ComplexDict, ComplexList
and use subspec instead.
* Refactor ios modules
* Refactor eos modules
* Refactor vyos modules
* Refactor nxos modules
* Refactor iosxr modules
* Add support for key in suboptions handling
* Fix CI issues
* Porting tests to pytest
* Achievement Get: No longer need mock/generator.py
* Now done via pytest's parametrization
* Port safe_eval to pytest
* Port text tests to pytest
* Port test_set_mode_if_different to pytest
* Change conftest AnsibleModule fixtures to be more flexible
* Move the AnsibleModules fixtures to module_utils/conftest.py for sharing
* Testing the argspec code requires:
* injecting both the argspec and the arguments.
* Patching the arguments into sys.stdin at a different level
* More porting to obsolete mock/procenv.py
* Port run_command to pytest
* Port known_hosts tests to pytest
* Port safe_eval to pytest
* Port test_distribution_version.py to pytest
* Port test_log to pytest
* Port test__log_invocation to pytest
* Remove unneeded import of procenv in test_postgresql
* Port test_pip to pytest style
* As part of this, create a pytest ansiblemodule fixture in
modules/conftest.py. This is slightly different than the
approach taken in module_utils because here we need to override the
AnsibleModule that the modules will inherit from instead of one that
we're instantiating ourselves.
* Fixup usage of parametrization in test_deprecate_warn
* Check that the pip module failed in our test
* Refactor common network shared and platform specific code into package (part-1)
As per proposal #76 refactor common network shared and platform specific
code into sub-package.
https://github.com/ansible/proposals/issues/76
* ansible.module_utils.network.common - command shared functions
* ansible.module_utils.network.{{ platform }} - where platform is platform specific shared functions
* Fix review comments
* Fix review comments
* jsonify inventory
* smarter import, dont pass kwargs where not needed
* added datetime
* Eventual plan for json utilities to migrate to common/json_utils when we split
basic.py no need to move jsonify to another file now as we'll do that later.
* json_dict_bytes_to_unicode and json_dict_unicode_to_bytes will also
change names and move to common/text.py at that time (not to json).
Their purpose is to recursively change the elements of a container
(dict, list, set, tuple) into text or bytes, not to json encode or
decode (they could be a generic precursor to that but are not limited
to that.)
* Reimplement the private _SetEncoder which changes sets and datetimes
into objects that are json serializable into a private function
instead. Functions are more flexible, less overhead, and simpler than
an object.
* Remove code that handled simplejson-1.5.x and earlier. Raise an error
if that's the case instead.
* We require python-2.6 or better which has the json module builtin to
the stdlib. So this is only an issue if the stdlib json has been
overridden by a third party module and the simplejson on the system
is 1.5.x or less. (1.5 was released on 2007-01-18)
* Make ansible_selinux facts a consistent type
Rather than returning a bool if the Python library is missing, return a dict with one key containing a message explaining there is no way to tell the status of SELinux on the system becasue the Python library is not present.
* Fix unit test
The /etc/os-release based distro detection doesn't
seem to work for Ubuntu 10.04 (no /etc/os-release?).
So it was testing the next case which was /etc/lsb-release to
see if it is 'Mandriva'. Since the check for existence of
(/etc/lsb-release, Mandrive) was the first non-empty dist
file match, 'ansible_distribution' was being set to 'Mandriva'
expecting to be corrected by the data from the dist file content.
But since the dist file parsing for Mandriva didn't match for
Ubuntu 10.04 /etc/lsb-release _and_ there is no Debian specific
lsb-release check, 'ansible_distribution' stayed at 'Mandriva'
and the dist file checking loop keeps going and eventually off
the end of the list before finding a better match.
Adding a debian/ubuntu specific check for /etc/lsb-release after
the debian os-release sets the info correctly and stops further
checking of dist files.
Fixes#30693
* Fix fact failures cause by ordering of collectors
Some fact collectors need info collected by other facts.
(for ex, service_mgr needs to know 'ansible_system').
This info is passed to the Collector.collect method via
the 'collected_facts' info.
But, the order the fact collectors were running in is
not a set order, so collectors like service_mgr could
run before the PlatformFactCollect ('ansible_system', etc),
so the 'ansible_system' fact would not exist yet.
Depending on the collector and the deps, this can result
in incorrect behavior and wrong or missing facts.
To make the ordering of the collectors more consistent
and predictable, the code that builds that list is now
driven by the order of collectors in default_collectors.py,
and the rest of the code tries to preserve it.
* Flip the loops when building collector names
iterate over the ordered default_collectors list
selecting them for the final list in order instead
of driving it from the unordered collector_names set.
This lets the list returned by select_collector_classes
to stay in the same order as default_collectors.collectors
For collectors that have implicit deps on other fact collectors,
the default collectors can be ordered to include those early.
* default_collectors.py now uses a handful of sub lists of
collectors that can be ordered in default_collectors.collectors.
fixes#30753fixes#30623
* Fix 'distribution' fact for ArchLinux
Allow empty wasn't breaking out of the process_dist_files
loop, so a empty /etc/arch-release would continue searching
and eventually try /etc/os-release. The os-release parsing
works, but the distro name there is 'Arch Linux' which does
not match the 2.3 behavior of 'Archlinux'
Add a OS_RELEASE_ALIAS map for the cases where we need to get
the distro name from os-release but use an alias.
We can't include 'Archlinux' in SEARCH_STRING because a name match on its keys
but without a match on the content causes a fallback to using the first
whitespace seperated item from the file content as the name.
For os-release, that is in form 'NAME=Arch Linux'
With os-release returning the right name, this also supports the
case where there is no /etc/arch-release, but there is a /etc/os-release
Fixes#30600
* pep8 and comment cleanup
* Fix pkg_mgr fact on OpenBSD
Add a OpenBSDPkgMgrFactCollector that hardcodes pkg_mgr
to 'openbsd_pkg'. The ansible collector will choose the
OpenBSD collector if the system is OpenBSD and the 'Generic'
one otherwise.
This removes PkgMgrFactCollectors depenency on the
'system' fact being in collected_facts, which also
avoids ordering issues (if the pkg mgr fact is collected
before the system fact...)
Fixes#30623
* Added the ability to extend the exception list in CloudRetry
* AWSRetry boto and boto compatible
* Updated tests to reflect boto/boto3
* Added boto to shippable requirements
* Have base_class and added_exceptions default to None in CloudRetry
AWSRetry - only retry on boto3 exceptions and remove boto requirement from tests
* Make requested changes.
* Fix for issue ansible/ansible#27715
* Also fixing mutually exclusive check
* Updating subspec checks
These changes take into account a spec with all features enabled and do
the following tests for subspecs:
1. Test proper specs
2. Test Alias
3. Test missing required param
4. Test mutually exclusive params
5. Test required if params
6. Test required one of params
7. Test required together params
8. Test required if params with a default value
9. Test basis subspec params
10. Test invalid subsec params
* adds new filter plugins for network use cases
* adds parse_cli filter
* adds parse_cli_textfsm filter
* adds Template class to network_common
* adds conditional function to network_common
* fix up PEP8 issues
previously gather_subset=['!all'] would still gather the
min set of facts, and there was no way to collect no facts.
The 'min' specifier in gather_subset is equilivent to
exclude the minimal_gather_subset facts as well.
gather_subset=['!all', '!min'] will collect no facts
This also lets explicitly added gather_subsets override excludes.
gather_subset=['pkg_mgr', '!all', '!min'] will collect only the pkg_mgr
fact.
* Add 2.0-2.3 facts api compat (ansible_facts(), get_all_facts())
These are intended to provide compatibilty for modules that
use 'ansible.module_utils.facts.ansible_facts' and
'ansible.module_utils.facts.get_all_facts' from 2.0-2.3 facts
API.
Fixes#25686
Some related changes/fixes needed to provide the compat api:
* rm ansible.constants import from module_utils.facts.compat
Just use a hard coded default for gather_subset/gather_timeout
instead of trying to load it from non existent config if the
module params dont include it.
* include 'external' collectors in compat ansible_facts()
* Add facter/ohai back to the valid collector classes
facter/ohai had gotten removed from the default_collectors
class used as the default list for all_collector_classes by
setup.py and compat.py
That made gather_subset['facter'] fail.
* Add aggregate parameter validation
aggregate parameter validation will support checking each individual dict
to resolve conditions for aliases, no_log, mutually_exclusive,
required, type check, values, required_together, required_one_of
and required_if conditions in argspec. It will also set default values.
eg:
tasks:
- name: Configure interface attribute with aggregate
net_interface:
aggregate:
- {name: ge-0/0/1, description: test-interface-1, duplex: full, state: present}
- {name: ge-0/0/2, description: test-interface-2, active: False}
register: response
purge: Yes
Usage:
```
from ansible.module_utils.network_common import AggregateCollection
transform = AggregateCollection(module)
param = transform(module.params.get('aggregate'))
```
Aggregate allows supports for `purge` parameter, it will instruct the module
to remove resources from remote device that hasn’t been explicitly
defined in aggregate. This is not supported by with_* iterators
Also, it improves performace as compared to with_* iterator for network device
that has seperate candidate and running datastore.
For with_* iteration the sequence of operartion is
load-config-1 (candidate db) -> commit (running db) -> load_config-2
(candidate db) -> commit (running db) ...
With aggregate the sequence of operation is
load-config-1 (candidate db) -> load-config-2 (candidate db) -> commit
(running db)
As commit is executed only once per task for aggregate it has
huge perfomance benefit for large configurations.
* Fix CI issues
* Fix review comments
* Add support for options validation for aliases, no_log,
mutually_exclusive, required, type check, value check,
required_together, required_one_of and required_if
conditions in sub-argspec.
* Add unit test for options in argspec.
* Reverted aggregate implementaion.
* Minor change
* Add multi-level argspec support
* Multi-level argspec support with module's top most
conditionals options.
* Fix unit test failure

* Make camel_to_snake work on capitalized plurals
`TargetGroupARNs` should become `target_group_arns`, not
`target_group_ar_ns`
Promote `camel_to_snake` to top layer function but prefix
it with an underscore.
Add tests for improved `_camel_to_snake` function.
Reduce use of `re.compile` as it makes no sense when the
compilation result is not reused.
* Remove unused LooseVersion check
* Fix PLURALs case for camel_to_snake
Also renamed EXPECTED_CAMELIZATION to EXPECTED_SNAKIFICATION
* ACI module_utils library for ACI modules
This PR includes:
- the ACI argument_spec
- an aci_login function
- an experimental aci_request function
- an aci_response function
- included the ACI team
* New prototype using ACIModule
This PR includes:
- A new ACIModule object with various useful methods
* Module argument_spec now accepts a callable for the type argument, which is passed through and called with the value when appropriate. On validation/conversion failure, the name of the callable (or its type as a fallback) is used in the error message.
* adds basic smoke tests for custom callable validator functionality
* Move tests to their own file
* Port to a pytest parametrized test so it's easier to define new tests
* Now that _symbolic_mode_to_octal is a classmethod, we don't have to
instantiate an AnsibleModule to test it.
* Add tests for #14994, having more than one operator per role and umask
chmod
Consolidate the module_utils, constants, and config functions that
convert values into booleans into a single function in module_utils.
Port code to use the module_utils.validate.convert_bool.boolean function
isntead of mk_boolean.
It was in lib/ansible/modules/system/setup.py since it
was the only thing using it, but move it back to module_utils
and add a ansible_collector.get_ansible_collector() to build
a facts collector just like the one used by setup.py
mv test_setup.py -> test_ansible_collector.py
All the code it was testing is now in ansible_collector
rm code to create 'ansible_facts' subkey from namespace
Just leave it up to the caller to do, and just return a
flat dictionary from AnsibleFactCollector.collect()
restored 'rc' inspection but only when failed is not specified
removed redundant changed from basic.py as task_executor already adds
removed redundant filters, they are tests
added aliases to tests removed from filters
fixed test to new rc handling
* adds new common functions for declarative intent modules
* adds Entity and EntityCollection
* adds dict_diff and dict_combine
* update for CI PEP8 compliance
* more CI PEP8 fixes
* more PEP8 CI clean up
* refactors the lambda assignments into top level classes
this is to be in compliant the PEP8 CI sanity checks
* one last pep8 ci fix
* Add more mount point statvfs info including sizes
Based on https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/12073
facts.utils.get_mount_size() now returns a dict of most
of the posix statvfs data, including block_size and inode
counts.
Update the facts.hardware classes that use get_mount_size() to
use the new info by mount_info.update(mount_statvfs_inof) to merge.
* add back unit tests for LinuxHardware mount/fs facts
* add test cases for facts.utils.get_mount_size
* Support NetBSD 7.1+ style ifconfig -a output
network facts on NetBSD after 7.1 cvs would fail
because of format changes in 'ifconfig -a' output.
update code to support new and old format.
add unit tests for both based on
examples from Bruce V Chiarelli.
* wrap use of interfaces.keys() in list() for py3 compat
* sort interface ids for stability
* Fix ansible_cmdline initrd fact for UEFI
UEFI cmdline paths use \ path sep which would
get munged by cmdline fact collection.
* Make CmdLineFactCollector easier to test
extract the parsing of the /proc/cmdline content to
_parse_proc_cmdline()
add a wrapper method for get_file_content _get_proc_cmdline()
Add unit tests of _parse_proc_cmdline based on examples
from issue #23647Fixes#23647
When operating on arbitrary return data from modules, it is possible to
hit the recursion limit when cleaning out no_log values from the data.
To fix this, we have to switch from recursion to iteration.

- mv Virtual fact classes to facts/virtual
- mv Hardware.get_sysctl to facts/sysctl.py:get_sysctl
- Also mv get_uname_version from facts/utils.py -> distribution.py
since distribution.py is the only thing using it.
- add collector.py with new BaseFactCollector
- add a subclass for AnsibleFactCollector
- hook up dict key munging FactNamespaces
- add some test cases for testing the names of facts
- mv timeout stuff to facts.timeout
- rm ansible_facts()/get_all_facts() etc
- Instead of calling facts.ansible_facts(), fact collection
api used by setup.py is now to create an AnsibleFactCollector()
and call it's collect method.
- replace Facts.get_user_facts with UserFactCollector
- add a 'systems' facts package, mv UserFactCollector there
- mv get_dns_facts to DnsFactCollector
- mv get_env_facts to EnvFactCollector
- include the timeout length in exception message
- modules and module_utils that use AnsibleFactCollector
can now theoretically set the 'valid_subsets'
May be useful for network facts module that currently have
to reimplement a good chunk of facts.py to get gather_subsets
to work.
- get_local_facts -> system/LocalFactCollector
- get_date_time -> system/date_time.py
- get_fips_facts -> system/fips.py
- get_caps_facts() -> system/caps.py
- get_apparmor_facts -> system/apparmor.py
- get_selinux_facts -> system/selinux.py
- get_lsb_facts -> system/lsb.py
- get_service_mgr_facts -> system/service_mgr.py
- Facts.is_systemd_managed -> system/service_mgr.py
- get_pkg_mgr_facts -> system/pkg_mgr.py
- Facts()._get_mount_size_facts() -> facts.utils.get_mount_size()
- add unit test for EnvFactCollector
- add a test case for minimal gather_subsets
- add test case for collect_ids
- Make gather_subset match existing behavior or '!all'
If 'gather_subset' is provided as '!all', the existing behavior
(in 2.2/2.3) is that means 'dont collect any facts except those
from the Facts() class'. So 'skip everything except
'apparmor', 'caps', 'date_time', 'env', 'fips', 'local', 'lsb',
'pkg_mgr', 'python', 'selinux', 'service_mgr', 'user', 'platform', etc.
The new facts setup was making '!all' mean no facts at all, since
it can add/exclude at a finer granularity. Since that makes more
sense for the ansible collector, and the set of minimal facts to
collect is really more up to setup.py to decide we do just that.
So if setup.py needs to always collect some gather_subset, even
on !all, setup.py needs to have the that subset added to the
list it passes as minimal_gather_subset.
This should fix some intg tests that assume '!all' means that
some facts are still collected (user info and env for example).
If we want to make setup.py collect a more minimal set, we can do that.
- force facts_dicts.keys() to a list so py3 works
- split fact collector tests to test_collectors.py
- convert Facter(Facts) -> other/facter.py:FacterFactCollector
- add FactCollector.collect_with_namespace()
regular .collect() will return a dict with the key names
using the base names ('ip_address', 'service_mgr' etc)
.collect_with_namespace() will return a dict where the key names
have been transformed with the collectors namespace, if there is
one. For most, this means a namespace that adds 'ansible_' to the
start of the key name.
For 'FacterFactCollector', the namespace transforms the key to
'facter_*'.
- add test cases for collect_with_namespace
- move all the concrete 'which facts does setup.py' stuff to setup.py
The caller of AnsibleFactCollector.from_gather_subset() needs to
pass in the list of collector classes now.
- update system/setup.py to import all of the fact classes and pass
in that list.
- split the Distribution fact class up a bit
extracted the 'distro release' file handling (ie, linux
boxes with /etc/release, /etc/os-release etc) into its
own class.
- extract get_cmdline_facts -> cmdline.py
- extract get_public_ssh_host_keys -> system/ssh_pub_keys.py
- extract get_platform_facts -> system/platform.py
platform.py may be a good candidate for further splitting.
- rm test for plain Facts() base class
- let the base class for Collector unit tests provide collected_facts
some Collectors and/or their migrated Facts() subsclasses need
to look at facts collected by other modules ('ansible_architecture'
the main one...).
Collector.collect() has the collected_facts arg for this, so add
a class variable to BaseFactsTest so we can specify it.
- mv Ohai to other/ohai.py and convert to Collector
- update hardware/*.py to return facts (no side effects)
- mv AnsibleFactCollector to setup.py
- extra collector class gathering to module method in
facts/__init__.py (collector_classes_from_gather_subset)
- add a CollectorMetaDataCollector collector used to provide
the 'gather_setup' fact
- add unit test module for 'setup' module
(test/units/modules/system/setup.py)
- Collector init now doesnt need a module, but collect does
An instance of a FactCollector() isnt tied to a AnsibleModule
instance, but the collect() method can be, so optionally pass
in module to FactCollector.collect() (everywhere)
- add a default_collectors for list of default collectors
import and use it from setup.py module
eventually, would like to replace this with a plugin loader
style class finder/loader
- unit tests for module_utils/facts/__init__.py
- add unit tests for ohai facts collector
- remove self.facts side effect on populate() in hardware/sunos.py
- convert OpenBSDHardware() to rm side effects on self.facts
- try to rm some self.facts side effects in Network()
plumb in collected_facts from populate() where it is needed.
stop passing collected_facts into Network() [via cached_facts=,
where it eventually becomes self.facts]
- nothing provides Fact() cached_facts arg now, rm it
Facts() should be internal only implementation so nothing
should be using it.
Of course, now someone will.
- add a Collector.name attr to build a map of name->_fact_ids
To properly exclude a gather_subset spec like '!hardware', we
need to know that 'hardware' also means 'devices', 'dmi', etc.
Before, '!hardware' would remove the 'hardware' collector name
but not 'devices'. Since both would end up in id_collector_map,
we would still end up with the HardwareCollector in the collector
list. End result being that '!hardware' wouldn't stop hardware
from being collected.
So we need to be able to build that map, so add the Collector.name
attribute that is the primary name (like 'hardware') and let
Collector._fact_ids be the other fact ids that a collector is
responsible for.
Construct the aliases_map of Collector.name -> set of _fact_ids
in fact/__init__.py get_collector_names, and use it when we are
populating the exclude set.
- refactor of distribution.py
make the big OS_FAMILY literal a little easier to read
Also keys can now be any string instead of python literals
99% sure the test for 'KDE Neon' was wrong
I don't see how/where it should or could get 'Neon' instead
of 'KDE Neon' as provided in os-release NAME=
Use 'distribution' string for key to OS_MAP
ie, we dont need to make it a valid python label anymore so dont.
move _has_dist_file to module as _file_exists
easier to mock without mucking with os.path
mv platform.system() calls to within get_distribution_facts() instead
of Distribution() init.
- remove _json compat module
The code in here was to support:
-a 'json' python module that was not the standard one included
with python since 2.6.
- potentially fallback to simplejson if 'json' was not available.
'json' is available for all supported python versions now so
no longer needed.
- mv get_collector_names -> facts.collector
- mv collector_classes_from_gather_subset -> facts.collector
- mv collector tests from test_facts -> test_collector
- Use six's reduce() in sunos/netbsd hardware facts
- rm extraneous get_uname_version in utils
only system/distribution.py uses it
- Remove Facts() subclass metaclass usage
- using fact_id and a platform id for matching collectors
gut most of Facts() subclasses
rm Facts() subclasses with weird metaclass
only add collectors that match the fact_ids and the platform_info
to the list of collectors used.
atm, a collectors platform_id will default to 'Generic', and
any platform matches 'Generic'
goal is to select collector classes including matching the
systems platform in collector.py, instead of relying on
metaclasses in hardware/*. To finish this, the various
Facts() subclasses will need to be replaced entirely with
Collector() subclasses.
use collector classmethod platform_match() to match the platform
This lets the particular class decide if it is compatible with
a given platform_info. platform_info is a dict like obj, so it could be
expanded in the future.
Add a default platform_match to BaseFactCollector that matches
platform_info['system'] == cls._platform
They were needed previously to trigger a module
load on all the collector classes when we import
facts/hardare so that the Hardware() and related
classes that used __new__ and find_all_subclasses()
would work.
Now that is done in collectors based on platform matching
at runtime we dont need to do it py module import/parse
time. So the non empty __init__.pys are no longer needed
and their is a more flexible mechanism for selection
platform specific stuff.
facts/facts.py is no longer used, rm'ed
- if we dont find an implement class for gather spec.. just ignore it.
Would be useful to add a warn to warn about this case.
