This allows the EC2 inventory plugin to be used with
the same configuration against different EC2 accounts
Profile can be passed using --profile variable or using
EC2_PROFILE environment variable e.g.
```
EC2_PROFILE=prod ansible-playbook -i ec2.py playbook.yml
```
Added documentation on profiles to EC2 dynamic inventory doc
Only tries to use profiles if --profile argument is given
or EC2_PROFILE is set to maintain compatibility will boto < 2.24.
Works around a minor bug in boto where if you try and use
a security token with a profile it fails (boto/boto#2100)
This is also peripheral to what _build_command needs, can be improved
and tested independently, and so makes more sense in a separate method.
This commit doesn't change any functionality (and I've verified that it
works with the various combinations: control_path set in ansible.cfg,
ssh_args adding or not adding ControlMaster/ControlPersist, etc.).
SSH pipelining can be a significant performance improvement, but it will
not work if sudoers is configured to requiretty. With this change, one
could have pipelining enabled in ansible.cfg, but use sudo to turn off
requiretty in a separate play (or task) where pipelining is disabled:
- hosts: foo
vars:
ansible_pipelining: no
tasks:
- lineinfile: dest=/etc/sudoers line='Defaults requiretty' state=absent
sudo_user: root
(Note that sudoers has a complicated syntax, so the above lineinfile
invocation may be too simplistic for production use; but the point is
that a separate play can do something to disable requiretty.)
Also get pipelining working for people who look to chroot as an example
for their own connection plugins
Note: In the latest v2 API, action handles become but chroot doesn't
reliably handle become. Maybe we need to add a has_become attribute
that the action can display an appropriate error.
* allow global no_log setting, no need to set at play or task level, but can be overriden by them
* allow turning off syslog only on task execution from target host (manage_syslog), overlaps with no_log functionality
* created log function for task modules to use, now we can remove all syslog references, will use systemd journal if present
* added debug flag to modules, so they can make it call new log function conditionally
* added debug logging in module's run_command
