* Move warn() and deprecate() methods out of basic.py
* Use _global_warnings and _global_deprications and create accessor functions
- This lays the foundation for future functions being moved outside of AnsibleModule
that need an interface to warnings and deprecations without modifying them.
* Add unit tests for new warn and deprecate functions
* Support using importlib on py>=3 to avoid imp deprecation
* Add changelog fragment
* importlib coverage for py3
* Ansiballz execute should use importlib too
* recursive module_utils finder should utilize importlib too
* don't be dumb
* Fix up units
* Clean up tests
* Prefer importlib.util in plugin loader when available
* insert the module into sys.modules
* 3 before 2 for consistency
* ci_complete
* Address importlib.util.find_spec returning None
* Move check_type_str() out of basic.py
* Move check_type_list() out of basic.py
* Move safe_eval() out of basic.py
* Move check_type_dict() out of basic.py
* Move json importing code to common location
* Move check_type_bool() out of basic.py
* Move _check_type_int() out of basic.py
* Move _check_type_float() out of basic.py
* Move _check_type_path() out of basic.py
* Move _check_type_raw() out of basic.py
* Move _check_type_bytes() out of basic.py
* Move _check_type_bits() out of basic.py
* Create text.formatters.py
Move human_to_bytes, bytes_to_human, and _lenient_lowercase out of basic.py into text.formatters.py
Change references in modules to point to function at new location
* Move _check_type_jsonarg() out of basic.py
* Rename json related functions and put them in common.text.converters
Move formatters.py to common.text.formatters.py and update references in modules.
* Rework check_type_str()
Add allow_conversion option to make the function more self-contained.
Move the messaging back to basic.py since those error messages are more relevant to using this function in the context of AnsibleModule and not when using the function in isolation.
* Add unit tests for type checking functions
* Change _lenient_lowercase to lenient_lowercase per feedback
* Rename method and make private
* Use is_iterable, combine transformations
* Remove unused return_values from network modules
* Improve docstrings in new functions
* Add new PASS_VAR
* Add unit tests for list_no_log_values
* Fix unit tests for Python 2.6
Refinements:
- return legal_inputs and update class properties
- remove redundant arguments from method and handle in caller
- add better exception types to method
* Add unit tests for handle_aliases
User module can contain Indentation errors or syntax errors.
Handle AST exceptions rather than showing traceback while importing such module.
Fixes: #21707

* Move get_all_subclasses out of sys_info as it is unrelated to system
information.
* get_all_subclasses now returns a set() instead of a list.
* Don't port get_platform to sys_info as it is deprecated. Code using
the common API should just use platform.system() directly.
* Rename load_platform_subclass() to get_platform_subclass and do not
instantiate the rturned class.
* Test the compat shims in module_utils/basic.py separately from the new
API in module_utils/common/sys_info.py and module_utils/common/_utils.py
* Enable the pylint no-name-in-module check. Checks that identifiers in
imports actually exist. When we do this, we also have to ignore
_MovedItems used in our bundled six. This means pylint won't check
for bad imports below ansible.module_utils.six.moves but that's
something that pylint punts on with a system copy of six so this is
still an improvement.
* Remove automatic use of system six. The exec in the six code which
tried to use a system library if available destroyed pylint's ability
to check for imports of identifiers which did not exist (the
no-name-in-module check). That test is important enough that we
should sacrifice the bundling detection in favour of the test.
Distributions that want to unbundle six can replace the bundled six in
ansible/module_utils/six/__init__.py to unbundle. however, be aware
that six is tricky to unbundle. They may want to base their efforts
off the code we were using:
2fff690caa/lib/ansible/module_utils/six/__init__.py
* Update tests for new location of bundled six Several code-smell tests
whitelist the bundled six library. Update the path to the library so
that they work.
* Also check for basestring in modules as the enabled pylint tests will
also point out basestring usage for us.
* test/: PEP8 compliancy
- Make PEP8 compliant
* Python3 chokes on casting int to bytes (#24952)
But if we tell the formatter that the var is a number, it works
* Update module_utils.six to latest
We've been held back on the version of six we could use on the module
side to 1.4.x because of python-2.4 compatibility. Now that our minimum
is Python-2.6, we can update to the latest version of six in
module_utils and get rid of the second copy in lib/ansible/compat.
This version just gets the relevant paths from PluginLoader and then
uses the existing imp.find_plugin() calls in the AnsiballZ code to load
the proper module_utils.
Modify PluginLoader to optionally omit subdirectories (module_utils
needs to operate on top level dirs, not on subdirs because it has
a hierarchical namespace whereas all other plugins use a flat
namespace).
Rename snippet* variables to module_utils*
Add a small number of unittests for recursive_finder
Add a larger number of integration tests to demonstrate that
module_utils is working.
Whitelist module-style shebang in test target library dirs
Prefix module_data variable with b_ to be clear that it holds bytes data
