A change is coming to Ansible where module params will default to str.
Many of our modules were taking advantage of this by not being explicit
about the type, so they will break when that change merges. This hopefully
catches those cases.
Fix the OpenStack os_server module for when region_name is specified.
This should not be passed through to the shade create_server() call
as it's only used with the auth parameters.
Fixes bug: https://github.com/ansible/ansible-modules-core/issues/2797
The exception message, when shade fails, will contain much more
specific information about the failure if the exception is treated
as a string. The 'message' attribute alone is usually not helpful.
If this parameter was not of the right type, the module would fail with a
traceback, with a "AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'get'"
exception.
It now gives a proper error message on type errors.
nics is a great flexible parameter, but it's wordy. Shade now supports
a simple parameter too, which is just "network" and takes a name or id.
Add passthrough support.
In addition to supporting booting from a pre-existing volume, nova and
shade both support the concept of booting from volume based on an image.
Pass the parameters through.
Shade supports boot-time attachment of additional volumes for OpenStack
instances. Pass through the parameter so that ansible users can also
take advantage of this.
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
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.
There was a parameter in the docs called 'public_ip' that didn't
actually exist. Additionally, auto_floating_ip is not consistent with
the underlying parameter which is auto_ip - for no good reason.
Add auto_ip as the real parameter, and then make public_ip and
auto_floating_ip as aliases for it for backwards compatability.
Fixes#2301
This patch adds support to setting metadata key/value through a string
argument. Variables can now be used for both the metadata key and
value.
example:
meta: "{{ var1 }}:SomeValue,key:{{ var2 }}"
* Add python>= 2.6 to documented requirements when a module's deps need
python>= 2.6 so we know when a module can use python2.6+ syntax
* Remove BabyJSON usage
* Change modules to use if __name__ == '__main__' so that they can
potentially be unittested
The BabJSON changes Fixes#1211
