When working around "bad systems that insist on not allowing
updates in an atomic manner", we should not run previous exception
management code that tries to perform atomic move in case of
exception since the dirty non atomic move has already been
performed.
* Fix the way task_include fields were created and copied
* Have blocks get_dep_chain() look at task_include's blocks for proper
dep chain inheritance
* Fix the way task_include fields are copied to prevent a recursive
degradation
Fixes#14460
This adds a new action plugin iosxr_template that allows the
iosxr_template module to pass network device configurations through the
template engine. It also allows configurations to be backed up.
* Make sure dep chains are checked recursively for nested blocks
* Fixing iterator is_failed() check to make sure we're not in a
rescue block before returning True
* Use is_failed() to test whether a host should be added to the TQM
failed_hosts list
* Use is_failed() when compiling the list of hosts left to iterate
over in both the linear and free strategies
Fixes#14222
- moved to base cli class to handle centrally and duplicate less code
- now avoids duplication and reiteration of signal handler by reassigning it
- left note on how to do non-graceful in case we add in future
as I won't remember everything i did here and don't want to 'relearn' it.
- adhoc now terminates gracefully
- avoid race condition on terminations by ignoring errors if
worker might have been reaped between checking if active and termination call
- ansible-playbook now properly exits on sigint/term
- adhoc and playbook now give exceptions that we should not normally capture
and rely on top level finally to reap children
- handle systemexit breaks in workers
- added debug to see at which frame we exit
partial fix for #14346
* Raise an error if the action is using BYPASS_HOST_LOOP, to prevent
unexpected behavior from those actions
* Show a warning regarding tasks marked as run_once, as the free strategy
does not yet support that behavior
* Minor tweak to linear strategies run_once code to make sure we don't
raise an error if an action isn't found
* If the internal value is None, do not add the variable
* Make sure all aliases for a given variable name are set (if they're
not already set in the dictionary)
Fixes#14310
just 'cause people build bad systems that insist on not allowing
updates in an atomic manner and force us to do them in a very
unsafe way that has race conditions and can lead to many issues.
if using this option you should really be opening a bug report with
the system that only allows for this type of update.
and now i shower though i doubt i'll feel clean
* Fixed a bug in PlayIterator when ITERATING_ALWAYS, where the block
was advanced but the incorrect data structure elements were cleared
* Cleaned up the logic of is_failed() in PlayIterator
* Fixed a bug in the free strategy which had not been updated to use
the base strategy _execute_meta() method
* Stopped strategies from using is_failed() to determine if tasks should
still be fetched for a host
Fixes#14040
The net_config local action handles templating for network configuration
file. It will also allow network device configurations to be backed up
to the control host
Note: this plugin was originally named net_config but has been refactored to
net_template
now deprecation message appears with variable name in all spots where this occurs
debug's var= option is excluded as this is only place where bare variables shold actually
be accepted.
it was assumed it could only be a dict or string (it starts out as a list)
also a 2nd assumption that bare vars only would appear in one of the dict keys.
removed deprecation warnings from here as they should be signaled in the bare conversion itself.
Adds new local action ops_config for handling openswitch configurations using
either dc or cli based configurations. Implements the common net_config
local action.
Note this refactors the ops_config plugin to ops_template
Adds a new local action ios_config for working with cisco ios configuration
files. Implements the common net_confing local action
Note this plugin was refactored from ios_config to ios_template
Adds new local action for working with cisco nxos configurations. Implemements
the net_config local action.
Note this action plugin was refactored from nxos_config to nxos_template
Adds a new local action for eos_config module to handle templating configs
and backing up running configurations. Implements the local action
net_config
Note this action was refactored from eos_config to eos_template
This fixes a minor bug in the nxos config module to ensure that both the
cli and nxapi transport return the running config as a string and not
a list object.
The module docs and vault changes solve issues where tracebacks can
happen. The galaxy changes are mostly refactoring to be more pythonic
with a small chance that a unicode traceback could have occurred there
without the changes. The change in __init__.py when we actually call
the pager makes things more robust but could hide places where we had
bytes coming in already so I didn't want to change that without auditing
where the text was coming from.
Fixes#14178
This addresses two issues with the nxos shared module. The first issue is
argument precedence checking. The module should prefer explicit arguments
over arguments passed vi the provider. This is now fixed to honor that
precedence. The second issue is collecting output from nxapi and returning
the response. Prior to this change the entire json structure was returned.
Now just the output is returned to align it better with cli based output
The eos shared module should prefer to use explicit task arguments over
arguments provided through the provider. This fixes a problem where
that was not the case
So far, when a 'diff' dict is returned with module results, it is
checked for 'before' and 'after' texts, which are processed in
_get_diff() by python difflib. This generates the changes to display
when CLI users specify --diff.
However, some modules will generate changes that cannot easily be
expressed in a conventional diff. One example is the output of the
synchronize module, which presents changed files in a common log format
as in `rsync --itemize-changes`.
Add a check for a diff['prepared'] key, which can contain prepared diff text
from modules.
* In 2.0.0.x become was reversed for synchronize. It was happening on
the local machine instead of the remote machine. This restores the
ansible-1.9.x behaviour of doing become on the remote machine.
However, there's aspects of this that are hacky (no hackier than
ansible-1.9 but not using 2.0 features). The big problem is that it
does not understand any become method except sudo. I'm willing to use
a partial fix now because we don't want people to get used to the
reversed semantics in their playbooks.
* synchronize copying to the wrong host when inventory_hostname is
localhost
* Fix problem with unicode arguments (first seen as a bug on synchronize)
Fixes#14041Fixes#13825
Role definitions typically require params to be different from those
which are specified as FieldAttributes on the playbook classes used
for roles, however a certain subset should be allowed (typically those
used for connection stuff).
Fixes#14095
The dep chain for roles created during the compile step had bugs, in
which the dep chain was overwriten and the original tasks in the role
were not assigned a dep chain. This lead to problems in determining
whether roles had already run when in a "diamond" structure, and in
some cases roles were not correctly getting variables from parents.
Fixes#14046
by moving to en-bloc unicode conversion to act on scripts stdout
Both python-json and simplejson always return unicode strings when using
their loads() method on unicode strings. This is true at least since
2009. This makes checking each substring unnecessary, because we do not
need to recursively check the strings contained in the inventory dict
later one-by-one
This commit makes parsing of large dynamic inventory at least 2 seconds
faster.
cf: https://github.com/towolf/ansible-large-inventory-testcase
This prevents a bug where the existing cache outside of the class
is not cleared when creating a new Inventory object. This only really
affects people using the API directly right now, but wanted to fix it
to prevent weird errors from popping up.
Instead of bombing out of the strategy, we now properly mark hosts failed
so that the play iterator can handle block rescue/always properly.
Fixes#14024
When using a playbook-level include, we now catch any errors raised during
the conditional evaluation step and set a flag to indicate we need to pass
those conditionals on to the included play (most likely because they contain
inventory variables for evaluation).
Fixes#14003
This causes problems when fetching parent attributes, as the include
was being skipped because the parent block would fetch the attribute
from the parent play first.
Fixes#13872
this was taken out in an effort to default to the user's shell but creates issues as this is not known ahead of time
and its painful to set executable and shell_type for all servers, it should only be needed for those that restrict the user
to specific shells and when /bin/sh is not available. raw and command may still bypass this by explicitly passing None.
fixes#13882
still conditional
The provider argument accepts the set of device common arguments as a
dict object. Individual connection arguments can still be included and
take priority over the provider argument. This update includes additions
to the nxos doc fragment
New argument `provider` added to the ios shared module that provides
the ability to pass all of the common ios arguments as a dict. This commit
includes some minor bugfixes and refactoring of names. It also includes
udpates to the ios documentation fragment for the new argument
Adds a new argument `provider` to the eos shared module and updates the
eos doc fragment. This commit includes some additional minor fixes and
code refactors for naming conventions. The `provider` argument allows the
shared module arguments to be passed as a dict object instead of having
to pass each argument invididually.
This commit adds a new argument `provider` to the iosxr shared module that
allows common connection parameters to be passed as a dict object. The
constraints on the args still applies. This commit also updates the iosxr
doc fragment.
Adds new argument `provider` to the openswitch shared module. The provider
argument can pass all openswitch connection arguments as a dict object. This
update includes adding the provider argument to the openswitch doc fragment
This commit adds a new argument `provider` to the junos shared module. The
argument allows the set of common connection args to be passed to the
junos shared module. This commit also updates the junos doc fragment
This commit provides an argument to provide a path to the private key
file. This will allow paramiko to use the key file as opposed to only
username / password combinations for CLI connections.
Letting it pass would just cause an error later on (no such file found)
so it's better to catch it here and know that we have users dealing with
non-utf8 pathnames than to have to track it down from later on.
Note that the fix for display normalizing to unicode is correct but the
fix for pathnames is probably not. Changing pathnames to unicode type
means that we will handle utf8 pathnames fine but pathnames can be any
sequence of bytes that do not contain null. We do not handle sequences
of bytes that are not valid utf8 here. To do that we need to revamp the
handling of basedir and paths to transform to bytes instead of unicode.
Didn't want to do that in 2.0.x as it will potentially introduce other
bugs as we find all the places that we combine basedir with other path
elements. Since no one has raised that as an issue thus far so it's not
something we need to handle yet. But it's something to keep in mind for
the future.
To test utf8 handling, create a utf8 directory and run a playbook from
within there.
To test non-utf8 handling (currently doesn't work as stated above), create
a directory with non-utf8 chars an run a playbook from there. In bash,
create that directory like this: mkdir $'\377'
