When destination sysctl file is missing, it is created.
But, for idempotency purposes, the creation process now takes place just before it is used, in the
main code path so an empty file is not left over if the code
module.fail_jsons before the file is really used.
When syscl file was missing, sysctl module was complaining about it and
bailing out.
This behaviour prevents usage of /etc/sysctl.d directory, present in
some distributions.
This patch accepts a missing sysctl.conf file so sysctl.d directory can
be used.
However, it will bail out if the destination directory doesn't exist.
Now handle positive integer value in virtual files if they are separated
by group of space characters where the count is unpredictable.
Thanks to romeotheriault for filing this bug.
A collegue of mine has added basix AIX support to the setup, user and group modules.
We have tested this on AIX 5.3 and 6.1 and it works "as advertised"
Uses a generic BSD Network class, which uses ifconfig and
parses crap out of it. Modifies the Network __new__

Remove lots of re use that really shouldn't have been re in the first
place. Initialize pcidata even if lspci is unavailable, and check for
its usability before trying to use it.
Fixes#2060.
So In my Centos 5.9 machine, if there is RAID mount ansible will crash, as it cannot find scheduler file. The reason being, this should be a virtual device as there is no "device" folder under e.g. /sys/block/md0/
Here is the crash:
[kk@u1 ansible]$ ansible q3 -m setup -k -u root --tree=/tmp/facts
SSH password:
q3 | FAILED => failed to parse: /sys/block/md0

- added cron_file attribute: if specified, the file with appropriate
job is created in /etc/cron.d directory. Also, you can store multiple
jobs in one file. state='absent' attribute is handled in the following
way in this case: if after the deletion of the job from the file specified
by cron_file variable the file is empty, the file is deleted, otherwise
not.
- fixed the behaviour, when the backupfile is saved forever in /tmp
folder, even if the backup= atribute is not set (os.unlink() is called if
backup is not True).
- added some comments to the unobvious places
Makes it possible to remove a user from all but the primary group.
Setting 'groups=' is the equivalent to passing '-G ""' to
useradd/usermod, which is interpreted as "no group" on Linux.
Change ec2 fact names with colons (:) or dashes (:) to undescore (_)
so that they can be used in templates.
Note that this makes copies instead of replacing the exisitng fact
names to avoid breaking existing playbooks.
* improves error handling and reporting
* uses run_command to reduce code
* fails quicker on errors as opposed to return codes and tracebacks
* can now also specify the key as data versus needing to wget it from a file
To be consistent with the table showing available options, use
underscores in the example tasks, not hyphens, as the table doesn't
list hyphenated versions of option names, so it looks like the
examples could have typos in them.
If a relative path is passed as an argument, this change first
converts it to an absolute path.
This fixes a bug where the git module would attempt to chdir into an
invalid directory because of multiple chdir calls against a relative
path.
pkgin always returns 0 so can't be used to tell if the install or remove
worked. Instead this just queries the installed packages after
performing an operation.
This adds two dependencies to the apt_repository module: apt and
apt_pkg. These come from the package python-apt. This is used to parse
the host's sources.list and examine whether the repo is already
configured. This then eliminates the unnecessary
'add-apt-repository --remove' from running.
- use boto instead of euca2ools
- improve error handling/propagation for run failures
- rename keypair to key_name (and preserve alias for old playbooks)
- should be 100% backward compatible with the euca2ools version
This adds "69" to the return codes from the status command that should be
considered as not running. At least "django-celery" uses this return code,
maybe others::
/venv/bin/python /code/project/manage.py celeryctl status
echo $? # 69 when not running.
A bit of googling let me to http://tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/exitcodes.html and
on a Ubuntu Server 12.10 I get::
~# cat /usr/include/sysexits.h | grep 69
#define EX_UNAVAILABLE 69 /* service unavailable */
I'm not sure if the content of sysexits.h is the same on other OS'es.
Pretty straightforward. Give it a URL with an exported GPG key for signing an
Apt repository. It downloads it and will install it using apt-key. It's even
smart enough to tell if it's already there (i.e. actually tells you if it
changed or not).
* Rename fail_on_rc_non_zero to check_rc, much more succinct.
* Simplify method defintion
* Fix command module and drop shell=shell option; whether to use
shell is determined by if args is a list.
This updates apt, apt_repository, command, cron, easy_install, facter,
fireball, git, group, mount, ohai, pip, service, setup, subversion,
supervisorctl, svr4pkg, user, and yum to take advantage of run_command
in module_common.py.
Without read permission to the current working directory, git-clone will
fail:
root@host:~$ sudo -u git -H git clone \
git://github.com/ansible/ansible.git /home/git/ansible
fatal: Could not change back to '/root': Permission denied
This commit ensures that the working directory is changed to the
parent-folder of the destination before doing the clone.
Two problems here
* unchecked exception handling and erroneous assumption as to why
an exception might fire
* although the file module expands the path, when using file_args
the unexpanded path is passed.
Expected result: ~/path/to/file should work fine
Actual result: exception is because it doesn't find file with a message
about not being able to get the selinux context
Added two additional template variables
* template_fullpath - absolute path to the template
* template_run_date - date that the template was rendered
Documented these additional variables in the module documentation
Since we use 'raw' heavily on equipment where 'command' and 'shell' are not (yet) working (and python may need to be installed first using raw) these improvements are necessary in order to write more complex scripts (with return code handling and separated stdout/stderr).
This change includes the following changes:
- exec_command() now returns the return code of the command
- _low_level_exec_command() now returns a dict, including 'rc', 'stdout' and 'stderr'
- all users of the above interfaces have been improved to make use of the above changes
- all connection plugins have been modified to return rc and stderr
- fix the newline problem (stdout and stderr would have excess newlines)
In a future commit I intend to add assertions or error handling code to verify the return code in those places where it wasn't done. Since only the output was available, the return code was ignored, even though we expect them to be 0.
Three changes:
* Add set_default_selinux_context() to module_common that sets
a file's context according to the defaults in the policy
* In atomic_replace(), set the default context for the file if
selinux is enabled and the destination file does not exist.
* In authorized_key, set the default context when creating
$HOME/.ssh and $HOME/.ssh/authorized_keys. If these already
exist, this won't touch them.
- Do not silently ignore malformed pip requirements files.
- Properly reports changed when removing packages.
- "latest" i.e. --upgrade is *not* incompatible with requirements files.
- Less branchy, simpler logic.
- Removed pointless variable "initializations", Python doesn't need that.
Other code simplifications.
- Fun fact; pip install is (kind of) case insensitive, pip freeze is not.
So, 'sqlalchemy' will be reported as installed by install, but missing
by freeze.
The perhaps controversial change and the one that led to finding /
fixing above issues...
Instead of adding command parameters 'index', and 'find', and 'mirrors',
and etc. Added 'extra_args' which are passed onto pip.
The use case for --index-url is having a private pypi repo, like
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/localshop, to which you publish private
packages. I'm sure most every pip option has a use case for someone.
extra_args handles all those. Can reserve ansible command parameters for
the most common.
Tested with pip 1.1.
Add HTML-escaping to code examples in rST tempate of module-formatter
Add support for specifying port, addresses with phrases and attaching files
Add support for custom headers and document version_added for new options
X-Mailer header added :)
protect empty address lists & attachment list, and add bcc
- Added username, password arguments.
- Documented existing revision argument.
- Corrected documentation/docstrings; removed git references, use svn
nomenclature, etc.
- Refactored duplicate code, redundant shell calls, filter abuse,
inconsistent formating, etc.
- Shell quoting so it doesn't break for one guy who has spaces in
pathnames.
- svn called with '--non-interactive' and '--no-auth-cache'.
Move operations that are dependant on a remote branch under a if
is_remote_branch() conditional. While at it, remove assignment to cmd
string in same block that wasn't used when calling _run().
The git module would not pull in updates to a branch when
version=<branch>. This updates that block to checkout the branch
and then do a git reset --hard <remote>/<branch>. This
should now track updates to a branch.
In a virtualenv, pip is called just pip. This fixes the pip module to
search for the virtualenv pip first before trying the pip-python and
python-pip variants. Without this, pip module would not install to the
virtualenv when that parameter is provided.
This updates _is_package_installed() to accept a requirements file
as an argument. This is used later in main() to check if python libs
specified in a requirements file are already installed. I updated
main() to consolidate the handling of install/uninstall in a single
block. This should help if someone wants to remove packages specified
by a requirements file.
This makes the line parsing a lot more robust (and easier to read).
Code supplied by @dhozac, thanks!
Remove re import because this is not used anywhere.
When trying to perform enabled=yes followed by enabled=no
against FreeBSD the module would die with the following error:
TypeError: sub() takes at most 4 arguments (5 given)
The target FreeBSD client (8.2) is running python 2.6.6. It seems the
extra 'flags' argument was added to re.sub() in 2.7.
In fixing this issue I have attempted to create a general atomic method
for modifying a rc.conf file. Hopefully this will make it easier to add
other rc based platorms. The strip/split magic was inspired by the user
module.
* Basically the moving parts from the original service module arranged in
subclasses.
* General structure and helper methods comes from the user module.
* Less forgiving to unsupported platforms: it requires a subclass per platform.
(This makes it easier to work on one platform without having to think about.
what other platform might be affected in unexpected ways).
* Now has basic OpenBSD support.
* Solaris support needs to be added.
Thanks to @dhozac for general advice and Linux testing.
Thanks to @bcoca for clearing up some FreeBSD questions.
I added all known virtualization types from the virt-what project. However, the few virt types that rely on cpuid information have not been implemented lacking native python cpuid access. (hyperv)
Without this fix, generating documentation results in:

- Make sure exit_json() always returns a changed= value
- Modify the yum module to not return failed=False
- Modify install() and latest() similar to remove() in yum module
- Changed exit_json(failed=True, **res) into a fail_json(**res)
- Make sure yum rc= value reflects loop (similar to how we fixed remove())
Rewrote switch_version() to read .git/HEAD to find branch associated
with HEAD. If in a detached HEAD state, will read
.git/refs/remotes/<remote>/HEAD.
Rename pull() to fetch(). It does a git fetch and then a
git fetch --tags.
Add _run() method to handle all subprocess.Popen calls. Change
all previous calls to subprocess.Popen to use _run().
There is no need to require thirsty mode when the destination is a directory. We add the basename of the url to the destination directory and proceed with that. If that file exists in non-thirsty mode continue as expected.
I also cleaned up some of the logic that is no longer necessary if we simply rewrite the destination from the very start the way it is expected.
I had made and pushed this change after you already pulled the request.
@dhozac indicated that it would probably be better to use return codes > 255 for anything related to Ansible itself. Which makes sens :)
We use the lineinfile module to modify configuration files of a proprietary application. This application reads configuration options from files, but does not require those files to exist (if the default options are fine). However this application may modify the configuration file at will, so we cannot copy or template those files. And after a silent install the configuration may not exist (depending on the response file).
Whatever the case, during deployment we need to make sure some configuration options are set after the installation.
So the cleanest way to handle this situation is to allow the lineinfile module to create the file if it is missing (and this is the expected behavior). When I proposed this behavior, @sergevanginderachter needed the same functionality and was now working around it as well.
