This commit allows the `security_groups` parameter of the `os_server`
module to be either a YAML list or a common-delimited string (much like
the `nics` attribute). E.g., this:
- os_nova_server:
[...]
security_groups:
- default
- webserver
Or this:
- os_nova_server:
[...]
security_groups: default,webserver
Specifically, the stat module now has a checksum_algorithm parameter.
This lets the module utilize one of the hash algorithms available on the host
to return the checksum of the file.
This change is backwards compatible. The checksum_algorithm defaults to
sha1 and still returns its result to the stat.checksum property.
The `os_security_group` module would fail if there was no `description:`
attribute:
localhost | FAILED! => {
"changed": false,
"failed": true,
"msg": "Error creating security group larstest: Invalid input for
description. Reason: 'None' is not a valid string."
}
This commit makes the default description `''` rather than `None`.
The `os_network` module was incorrectly returning changed=False whether
or not the network was created. This commit makes the changed return
value useful.
make os_subnet behave like os_network in terms of returning information
about the created resource. With this commit, os_subnet will return the
created subnet in `subnet` and the subnet id in `id`.
When this was treated as a boolean, sphinx was leaving the Default
column on http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/ec2_module.html blank,
implying it would use AWS's default. In reality, it passes False, which
overrides the defaults at AWS (it's possible to boot an instance which
AWS claims will always have EBS optimization without it because of this
silently passed False).
Allow the 'interfaces' attribute to represent internal router
interfaces, composed of subnet names, and the 'external_fixed_ips'
attribute to represent external interface subnet/IP.
The existing code was receiving a list of strings and erroneously
assuming it was being given a list of dictionaries, leading it to fail
with:
AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'get'
This commit corrects the list handling code to check the type of each
item and handle it appropriately. Also, based on bcoca's comment
in #2253, thie code removes the special case for a string-only argument.
By transforming string arguments into dicts and then handling them like
any other dict argument, this also permits arguments of the form:
nics: net-name=mynet
Or:
nics: port-name=mynet
Previous versions of this code only supported `net-id` and `port-id` in
string specifications.
