Add constant DEFAULT_MODULE_LANG that defaults to C. Can be set via
environment variable ANSIBLE_MODULE_LANG or configuration variable
module_lang. Updated test-module to have same behavior.
This change avoids the "tcgetattr: Invalid argument" error by making sure the ssh we start does have a proper pseudo-tty.
We could also check whether our current terminal is a proper terminal (by doing a tcgetattr ourselves) but I don't think this adds anything.
This closes#1662 (if all use-cases have been tested: sudo, passwd)
Otherwise, a host in two groups, A and B, using a variable defined
in group A and all will get the value of all, as B's variables will
include the all variable.
Partially fixes#1647.
global_vars has higher precedence than inventory. Putting the all
group's variables into it overrides all other groups and hosts.
Partially fixes#1647.
As reported on the mailinglist, the user received a ValueError when the port number was not templated (fixed in #1649) and therefore it was not an integer. This change will catch the exception and provide a proper error so it is more clear.
Executive summary: skipping a host corrupts a variable (when it is registered)
We have a play existing out of multiple tasks that check a condition, if one of these tasks fails we want to skip all next tasks in the playbook. I noticed that if we skip a task because a certain condition is met, and this task has a register-attribute, I loose the value in the variable. Which means we cannot use that variable in subsequent tasks to evaluate because it was skipped:
```
- action: command test -d /some/directory
register: task
- action: command test -f /some/directory/file
register: task
only_if: '${task.rc} == 0'
- action: do something else
only_if: '${task.rc} == 0'
```
In the above example, if the second task is skipped (because the first failed), the third action will end with a "SyntaxError: invalid syntax" complaining about the unsubstituted ${task.rc} (even though it was set by the first task and used for skipping the second).
The following play demonstrates the problem:
```
- name: Test register on ignored tasks
hosts: all
gather_facts: no
vars:
skip: true
task: { 'rc': 666 }
tasks:
- action: debug msg='skip = ${skip}, task.rc = ${task.rc}'
- name: Skip this task, just to test if task has changed
action: command ls
register: task
only_if: '${skip} != True'
- action: debug msg='skip = ${skip}, task.rc = ${task.rc}'
- name: Now use task value
action: command echo 'Works !'
only_if: '${task.rc} == 0'
```
And the enclosed fix, fixes the above problem.
