Privilege assignment, or removal, is an optional step, which works on one database at a time. This allows for the module to be called several times in the same module to modify the permissions on different databases, or to grant permissions to already existing users. + - A user cannot be removed untill all the privileges have been stripped from the user. In such situation, if the module tries to remove the user it will fail. To avoid this from happening the fail_on_user option signals the module to try to remove the user, but if not possible keep going; the module will report if changes happened and separately if the user was removed or not. +version_added: "0.6" +options: + name: + description: + - name of the user (role) to add or remove + required: true + default: null + password: + description: + - set the user's password + required: true + default: null + db: + description: + - name of database where permissions will be granted + required: false + default: null + fail_on_user: + description: + - if yes, fail when user can't be removed.

You must ensure that psycopg2 is installed on the host before using this module. If the remote host is the PostgreSQL server (which is the default case), then PostgreSQL must also be installed on the remote host. For Ubuntu-based systems, install the postgresql, libpq-dev, and python-psycopg2 packages on the remote host before using this module. +requirements: [ psycopg2 ] +author: Lorin Hochstein +''' + import re try:
