Rich Murphey 88ccaf106b use of multiple chocolatey package names (#28046)
* use of multiple chocolatey package names

It might be helpful to users, to clarify whether/when <name:> must specify a single package.

Users who are familiar with chocolatey may be accustomed to installing multiple packages in a single invocation of 'choco install'.

I believe win_chocolatey currently accepts multiple package names when state: is latest or present.
For instance, this appears to work currently:

  - win_chocolatey:
      name: >-
        pscx
        windirstat
      state: latest

However, when state: is absent, uninstall is not performed if multiple package are specified.
The chocolate.log output suggests that chocolatey is treating the multiple packages as an 'exact' name of a single package name:
2017-08-10 19:04:04,087 2424 [DEBUG] - Command line: "C:\ProgramData\chocolatey\choco.exe" list --local-only --exact pscx windirstat
2017-08-10 19:04:04,087 2424 [DEBUG] - Received arguments: list --local-only --exact pscx windirstat

I find the current behavior helpful in terms of accepting multiple package names, even if uninstall must be treated differently.
It might be helpful to show an example of how multiple uninstalls can be handled by looping over them. 

  - win_chocolatey:
      name: "{{ item }}"
      state: absent
    with_items:
      - pscx
      - windirstat

* revise per Jordan Borean. remote colon (:) from text. revise formating.

* Update win_chocolatey.py

Ansible

Ansible is a radically simple IT automation system. It handles configuration-management, application deployment, cloud provisioning, ad-hoc task-execution, and multinode orchestration - including trivializing things like zero downtime rolling updates with load balancers.

Read the documentation and more at https://ansible.com/

Many users run straight from the development branch (it's generally fine to do so), but you might also wish to consume a release.

You can find instructions here for a variety of platforms.

Design Principles

  • Have a dead simple setup process and a minimal learning curve
  • Manage machines very quickly and in parallel
  • Avoid custom-agents and additional open ports, be agentless by leveraging the existing SSH daemon
  • Describe infrastructure in a language that is both machine and human friendly
  • Focus on security and easy auditability/review/rewriting of content
  • Manage new remote machines instantly, without bootstrapping any software
  • Allow module development in any dynamic language, not just Python
  • Be usable as non-root
  • Be the easiest IT automation system to use, ever.

Get Involved

  • Read Community Information for all kinds of ways to contribute to and interact with the project, including mailing list information and how to submit bug reports and code to Ansible.
  • All code submissions are done through pull requests. Take care to make sure no merge commits are in the submission, and use git rebase vs git merge for this reason. If submitting a large code change (other than modules), it's probably a good idea to join ansible-devel and talk about what you would like to do or add first and to avoid duplicate efforts. This not only helps everyone know what's going on, it also helps save time and effort if we decide some changes are needed.

  • Development list: ansible-devel
  • Announcement list: ansible-announce - read only
  • irc.freenode.net: #ansible

Branch Info

  • Releases are named after Led Zeppelin songs. (Releases prior to 2.0 were named after Van Halen songs.)
  • The devel branch corresponds to the release actively under development.
  • For releases 1.8 - 2.2, modules are kept in different repos, you'll want to follow core and extras
  • Various release-X.Y branches exist for previous releases.
  • We'd love to have your contributions, read Community Information for notes on how to get started.
