minor_changes:
|
|
- vars plugins - Support vars plugins in collections by adding the ability to whitelist plugins.
|
|
- host_group_vars plugin - Require whitelisting and whitelist by default.
|
|
- Add a global toggle to control when vars plugins are executed (per task by default for backward compatibility or after importing inventory).
|
|
- Add a per-plugin stage option to override the global toggle to control the execution of individual vars plugins (per task, after inventory, or both).
