Some machines have system clocks which can fall behind (for instance,
a host without a CMOS battery like Raspberry Pi). When managing those
machines we have to workaround the fact that the zip format does not
handle file timestamps before 1980. The workaround is to substitute in
the timestamp from the controller instead of from the managed machine.
Fixes#18640
* Make sure include_role inherit variables from parent role
Setting the parent of task blocks generated by include_role after they
have been produced is not sufficient - it means the tasks don't have the
correct dependency chain set afterwards, and therefore, don't properly
inherit variables from outer roles.
In addition to manually setting the parents, pass the dep_chain when
compiling the role, such that variables are correctly imported.
Fixes#18540.
* Add tests for include_role
* Fix include_role variable inheritance for multiple parent levels
Commit 8b08a28c89 removed a
call to get_exception() that was needed. Without it, the fail_json
references an undefined variable ('exception') and throws an exception.
Add the get_exception() back in where needed and update references.
Now the proper module failure is returned.
Fixes#18628
* adds new connection plugin `network_cli` which builds on paramiko
* adds new plugin `terminal` used for manipulating network_cli terminals
* adds new field to play_context `network_os` settable as ansible_network_os
This commit adds the plugins necesary to establish a persistent cli connection
to network devices of ssh. It builds on the paramiko connection plugin
to create a shell environment that will persistent through ansible-connection.
The `newtork_cli` plugin then uses the network_os in the instance of
PlayContext to load the appropriate network OS environment plugin for
handling opening and closing of shells as well as privilege escalation.
* updates paramiko_ssh to auto add keys
* updates constants with new config options
This commit adds a new feature that will allow paramiko to automatically
accept and save a host ssh key. This feature is controlled by the
`host_key_auto_add` config setting in the paramiko section. The default
is False to maintain current functionality. It also includes a new
setting `look_for_keys` with the default to False for maintaining current the
current setting.
The timeout param was exposed to the socket connection but was not
enforced for commands. This update will now cause a command to timeout
based on the module parameter.
Fetch module uses fetch_file() from plugin/connection/ssh.py to
retrieve files from the remote hosts which in turns uses
_file_transport_command(self, in_path, out_path, sftp_action) being
sftp_action = 'get'
When using scp rather than sftp, sftp_action variable is not used
and the scp command is formed in a way that the file is always
sent to the remote machine
This patch fixes _file_transport_command() to correctly form the scp
swaping src and dest if sftp_action is 'get'

When determining which getter style to use for the object in question,
the BaseMeta class should look at both dict's to try and locate the method.

For setfacl on Solaris we need to specify permissions like r-x.
For chmod, we need to specify them as rx (r-x means to make the file
readable and *not* executable)
for solaris, add get_dmi_facts to get product_name fact, and update memtotal_mb to integer for consistency.
for hp-ux, user machinfo to get product_serial fact
The _fixup_perms2 method checks to see if the user that is being sudo'd
is an unprivileged user or root. If it is an unprivileged user, some
checks are done to see if becoming this user would lock the ssh user out
of temp files, among other things. If this check fails, an error prints
telling the user to check the documentation for becoming an unprivileged
user.
On some systems, the stderr prints out the unprivileged user the ssh
user was trying to become contained in smartquotes. These quotes aren't
in the ASCII range, and so when we're trying to call `str.format()` to
combine the stderr message with the error text we get a
UnicodeEncodeError as python can't coerce the smartquotes using the
system default encoding. By calling `to_native()` on the error message
we can ensure that the error message is a native string for the
`Exception` handling, as `Exception` messages need to be native strings
to avoid errors (byte strings in python2, and text strings in python3)
Fixes: #18444
Previously, the Conditional class did a simple check when an
AnsibleUndefinedVariable error was raised to see if certain strings were
present. This patch tries to be smarter by evaluating the variable contained
in the error string and compared to the defined/not defined conditionals in
the conditional string.
This also modifies the UndefinedError message from HostVars slightly to
match the format returned jinja2 in general, making it easier to match the
error message in the Conditional code.
Fixes#18514
VMs in VPC and not in VPC can have an identical name. As a result VMs in a VPC must be sorted out if no VPC is given.
Due the API limitation, the only way is to check if the network of the VM is in a VPC.
With 2.0, we decided to create a special list of param names which were
taken out of the role data structure and stored as params instead (connection,
port, and remote_user). This causes problems with inheritance of these params,
so we are now deprecating that while also keeping those keys in the ds so they
are brought in as attributes on the Role correctly.
Fixes#17395
* Moved the _inventory.clear_group_dict_cache() from creating a group which doesn't exist, to adding members to the group.
* Update __init__.py
Update to use changed: block to catch all changes for cache clear as suggested
Fixes#18544.
When a loop is over an empty list, the result is set to
{'skipped_reason': u'No items in the list', 'skipped': True, 'changed': False}
which means that accessing `hr._result['results']` throws a `KeyError`.
- Better switch between *dense* and *default*
- Reimplement C.COLOR* out of necessity (help!)
- Make verbose output more dense (clean up result)
- Implement our own dumper
- Improve delegation support
The goal for the "dense" output is to only show changes and failures on-screen (the Unix-way).
However, since we still want to have a sense of progress, we use terminal capabilities to display progress.
- On screen there should only be relevant stuff
- How far are we ? (during run, last line)
- What issues occured
- What changes occured
- Diff output
- If verbosity increases, act as default output
So that users can easily switch to default for troubleshooting
- Leave previous task output on screen
- If we would clear the line at the start of a task, there would often
be no information at all
- We use the cursor to indicate where in the task we are.
Output after the prompt is the output of the previous task
- Use the same color-conventions of Ansible
This is still a work in progress.
It was released to give a glimpse of what would be possible.
The Ansible callback mechanism currently does not have all the functionality we need to do this efficiently.
* Replace pipes.quote for shlex_quote
* More migration of pipes.quote to shlex_quote
Note that we cannot yet move module code over. Modules have six-1.4
bundled which does not have shlex_quote. This shouldn't be a problem as
the function is still importable from pipes.quote. It's just that this
has become an implementation detail that makes us want to import from
shlex instead.
Once we get rid of the python2.4 dependency we can update to a newer
version of bundled six module-side and then we're free to use
shlex_quote everywhere.
Previous changes addressed a corner case, which unfortunately introduced
another bug. This patch adds a new flag to the host state (did_rescue) which
is set to true when the rescue portion of a block completes. This flag is
then checked in _check_failed_state() when the fail_state != FAILED_NONE.
This lead to the discovery of another bug - current strategies are not advancing
hosts to ITERATING_COMPLETE after doing a peek at the next task, leaving the
host state in the run_state of the final task. To address this, before gathering
the list of failed hosts in StrategyBase.run(), a final pass through the iterator
for all hosts is done to ensure each host is in its final state. This way, no
strategy derived from StrategyBase has to worry about it and it's handled.
Fixes#17983
* Have template action plugin call do_template
Avoids all the magic done for 'inline templating' for ansible plays.
renamed _do_template to do_template in templar to make externally accessible.
fixes#18192
* added backwards compat as per feedback
When loading an include statically, we previously were simply doing a
copy() of the TaskInclude object, which recurses up the parents creating
a new lineage of objects. This caused problems when used inside load_list_of_blocks
as the new parent Block of the new TaskInclude was not actually in the list
of blocks being operated on. In most circumstances, this did not cause a
problem as the new parent block was a proper copy, however when used in
combination with PlaybookInclude (which copies conditionals to the list of
blocks loaded) this untracked parent was not being properly updated, leading
to tasks being run improperly.
Fixes#18206
