Toshio Kuratomi 4b0aa1214c Ziploader
* Ziploader proof of concept (jimi-c)

* Cleanups to proof of concept ziploader branch:

* python3 compatible base64 encoding
* zipfile compression (still need to enable toggling this off for
  systems without zlib support in python)
* Allow non-wildcard imports (still need to make this recusrsive so that
  we can have module_utils code that imports other module_utils code.)
* Better tracebacks: module filename is kept and module_utils directory
  is kept so that tracebacks show the real filenames that the errors
  appear in.

* Make sure we import modules that are used into the module_utils files that they are used in.

* Set ansible version in a more pythonic way for ziploader than we were doing in module replacer

* Make it possible to set the module compression as an inventory var

This may be necessary on systems where python has been compiled without
zlib compression.

* Refactoring of module_common code:

* module replacer only replaces values that make sense for that type of
  file (example: don't attempt to replace python imports if we're in
  a powershell module).
* Implement configurable shebang support for ziploader wrapper
* Implement client-side constants (for SELINUX_SPECIAL_FS and SYSLOG)
  via environment variable.
* Remove strip_comments param as we're never going to use it (ruins line
  numbering)

* Don't repeat ourselves about detecting REPLACER

* Add an easy way to debug

* Port test-module to the ziploader-aware modify_module()

* strip comments and blank lines from the wrapper so we send less over the wire.

* Comments cleanup

* Remember to output write the module line itself in powershell modules

* for line in lines strips the newlines so we have to add them back in

'Hacking' directory tools

Env-setup

The 'env-setup' script modifies your environment to allow you to run ansible from a git checkout using python 2.6+. (You may not use python 3 at this time).

First, set up your environment to run from the checkout:

$ source ./hacking/env-setup

You will need some basic prerequisites installed. If you do not already have them and do not wish to install them from your operating system package manager, you can install them from pip

$ easy_install pip               # if pip is not already available
$ pip install pyyaml jinja2 nose passlib pycrypto

From there, follow ansible instructions on docs.ansible.com as normal.

Test-module

'test-module' is a simple program that allows module developers (or testers) to run a module outside of the ansible program, locally, on the current machine.

Example:

$ ./hacking/test-module -m lib/ansible/modules/core/commands/shell -a "echo hi"

This is a good way to insert a breakpoint into a module, for instance.

For more complex arguments such as the following yaml:

parent:
  child:
    - item: first
      val: foo
    - item: second
      val: boo

Use:

$ ./hacking/test-module -m module \
    -a "{"parent": {"child": [{"item": "first", "val": "foo"}, {"item": "second", "val": "bar"}]}}"

Module-formatter

The module formatter is a script used to generate manpages and online module documentation. This is used by the system makefiles and rarely needs to be run directly.

Authors

'authors' is a simple script that generates a list of everyone who has contributed code to the ansible repository.
