The mysqldb Ansible module will fail if the state specified is import or dump with a '1045: Access Denied' mysql error for complex passwords.
This is caused by the extra quote around the '--password' argument to mysqldump, as pipes.quotes already quotes the password string.
>>> "--password='%s'" % pipes.quote('simple')
"--password='simple'"
>>> "--password='%s'" % pipes.quote('c0mplexp@ssword!')
"--password=''c0mplexp@ssword!''"
>>> "--password='%s'" % pipes.quote('password with space')
"--password=''password with space''"
From the documentation it is not immediately clear that the 'target'
option refers to a location on the remote host. This change emphasizes that.
In addition to .sql files, .bz2 and .gz files are supported for dumps and
restores. This is now documented.
The password is passed on a command line for dump and import and needs
quoting.
Ideally, this would not be passed on a command line at all - any ideas?
Or at least have a stronger form of quoting so that embedded single
quotes will be escaped.
Migrated all examples: in DOCUMENTATION=''' string to standalone EXAMPLES=''' string
Added deprecation warning to moduledev.rst and remove deprecated example from it
Fixed up a few typos and uppercased some acronyms.
add consistency to how EXAMPLES are formatted
