* runas + async - get working on older hosts
* fixed up sanity issues
* Moved first task to end of test for CI race issues
* Minor change to async test to be more stable, change to runas become to not touch the disk
* moved async test back to normal spot
This commit: fa5c0282a4 relied upon
features present in Jinja-2.10 and above. The changes here allow us to
build the *rst* with older versions of jinja2.
* add a third way to disable cows
Cows are great, but there's a third way to disable. I'm sure my RST markup can be improved.
* oops, actually in ansible.cfg
While the HTML produced is perfectly valid, without the `trim` filter,
a lot of warnings are emitted (700 lines of warnings out of 2812 are

Documented procedure to handle package dependencies required by
packages which are Ansible dependencies.
Fixes: #30732Fixes: #16571

* Add docs detailing how to convert many with_X style loops to use loop and filters. Fixes#40727
* Switch lookup used in query vs lookup comparison, to not recommend use of nested lookup
* Improve docs based on feedback
Address Firefox table-rendering issues in docs. Refactor to use colspan to provide table cells which can vary in width and indentation; the outermost has the greatest colspan, and each nested key has a colspan of one less than the parent, with padding cells for indentation.
Apply styling to table cells to get the table height to work without hacks or browser-specific
styling. Simplify the markup and CSS by removing extra divs. Use two passes over the options, return values, and return facts in the Jinja2 module-docs template: one to determine the maximum nesting depth to compute the maximum colspan needed, plus one to lay out the rows.
* Move k8s modules to dynamic backend
* update required openshift version

* fix typo
* Use diff of response and resource to determine change, don't do any checking client-side before making requests

* docs: add explanations for the machinectl become_method
* docs: machinectl become_method: specify this part is specific to Linux+systemd setups
This Makefile uses non-standard constructs. As such it can only be
parsed by GNU make, which is often installed as 'gmake' instead of
'make'. Using $(MAKE) ensures the same version of make gets called that
is used to execute the top level.
OpenBSD comes with its own encryption utility as well, which must be run on the password text `encrypt <password>`. following the code block above, i just included the base command in the code block. I wasn't quite sure where to add my change, so I put it at the bottom of the section since the rest all flows well together.

Signed-off-by: Abhijeet Kasurde <akasurde@redhat.com>

* virtualenv info (previously on the python3 support page)
* BSD (Link to the working with BSD page)
* Solaris (Document how to work around the non-POSIX shell on some
Solaris hosts)
Fixes#21594
* Fix some refs in the release_and_maintenance document
* Fix unindent error in module template
Fix for the module/plugin template unintentionally unindented inside of
a raw block, leading to errors like:
ERROR: docs/docsite/rst/modules/redshift_facts_module.rst:289:0: Explicit markup ends without a blank line; unexpected unindent.
* Make wording for Solaris troubleshooting better.
The big one is that we needed to set plugin_type when we processed the by_support template.
Also added to list_of_CATEGORY_plugins page (which might not be used)
and corrected a place where I did module_name instead of name_module
The regex to find labels inside of angle brackets was not detecting
anything before so I missed all of those.
* Fixed the regex in find-plugin-refs to take care of that.
* Fixed plugin_formatter to emit namespaced labels for the M() macro.
We're porting autogenerated plugin docs so that :ref: targets are
namespaced by plugin type. To do this effectively, we need to know
where all the :ref: targets which refer to the bare plugin names are in
the rst files. This script will find those.
* centralize doc/config plugin lists
also update list for generation in docsite
added note to ensure they are in sync
* updated shell page to list plugins
added some more docs hinting at plugins being configurable
* fix edit link for plugins
The :ref: syntax is for linking to targets which are defined for the
whole document tree. `link`_ is for linking to targets which are inside
of the document. We want the latter for deprecated sections because
otherwise we'd have to create namespaced link targets for them.
Also fix expansion of version a deprecated module will be removed in
* docs: Document disabling diff on task level
Tasks that deal with secrets may leak sensitive information when
running in Check Mode. This change updates the documentation explaining
that the diff can be deactivated on task level.
The feature was requested in #14860 and got introduced in Ansible 2.4
with #28581.
* Updated for clarity
The example regarding `include_*` is a bit unclear. First it seems like the v2.4 and v2.5 examples are the same. So I attempted to make the relevant change in the examples more obvious.
label: docsite_pr
I hastily did a copy/paste of the `async` example and it took me
a while to understand that `async` specified a maximum runtime in seconds.
The docs are actually mostly clear on this, but I made this PR while
reading the code.
This also fixes the spelling of "asynchronously".
* Use arg_spec type for comparisons on default and choices
* Further improve type casting
* Make sure to capture output in more places
* Individually report invalid choices
* Update ignore.txt after resolving merge conflicts
* Correct method to get timedelta seconds value
This also adds additional clarification for extracting different time/date values for time deltas
* Small edit
This PR includes:
- A fix for multiple-choice defaults
- A fix for messed up dictionary samples
- Cleaner defaults when they don't appear part of choices
* Improve default values and choices in module docs
So currently we show defaults and choices in separate columns.
For each parameter we have
- Mostly empty default and choices cells
- A list of choices and a separate default value
- Only a default value
So there's a lot of space being wasted on empty cells.
We can do this better.
* Improve Parameters section
* Add Choices back into column header
* Ensure the tables spans the complete page width
* allow ANSIBLE_KEEP_REMOTE_FILES for local test runner
* add ANSIBLE_KEEP_REMOTE_FILES to tox.ini, update docs
* Clarify handling of environment variables.
* Improve module docs return values
Currently the 5 columns shown doesn't make optimal use of the screen
estate, especially for facts modules this is a problem.
* Add returned facts as a separate section
* Remove whitespace and add support section
Since Notes were moved higher up, the Author, Status and Maintainer
information was now placed under the Return Values section.
* Switch Last Updated and Copyright
* Remove Sphinx/Read-the-Docs plug on every doc page
No need to have this on every page.
This fixes#37021
* Reinstated RTD credit with revised wording.
* Re-removed RTD footer boilerplate.
* Make use of named links in documentation notes
Now that it is possible to name external links, we are making use of
this to make the documentation better.
* Add improvements to ACI documentation
* Disable QA for long line
* Add :menuselection: and :guilabel:
* Improve links on some modules
* Adds the ability to override the doc build output from the command line.
* For safety, removed straight rm of BUILDDIR and removed subdirectories instead.
* Added check to see if BUILDDIR was defined to main makefile
* Automatically stuff reference in commit message
So we probably want to track which edits were performed through the
Github interface, and this change automatically adds a label to the
commit message.
```yaml
<!--- Your description here -->
+label: docsite_pr
```
Eventually this allows to (on regular basis) list the changes from
documentation readers and process them in a separate process.
So I am still not satisfied with how required parameters are being
displayed (before it was yes/no, then it became required/optional, and
only required).
Now it will display in small green 'required' under the parameter name.
This is more convenient, and provides more room for the description.
Especially on smaller screens.
So people reading the module documentation usually look for parameters
first, and are interested in examples. However the notes are at the very
end even below the Return Values (the least interesting part).
So this change moves the notes higher up, below parameters, but before
examples so people at least see the notes.
* Explain what the Ansible Quickstart video does
Rewrote what video does. The video is really not teaching you how to do the work. It explains why you'd want to use Ansible and shows you what it takes (some sample code) . Video also introduces you to other products in the Ansible ecosystem.
* Edit
* Workaround for non-string values
So I think the proper fix should go into html_ify, which should convert
any value into a string, rather than expecting strings only.
* My preferred solution
This PR includes:
- Indentation of Jinja constructs
- Put parameter name in bold
- Title-case table headers
- Show 'required' when parameter is required (not yes/no)
- Left-align all values
This PR includes:
- An improvement to the parameter listing, where instead of yes/no, it
is indicated with required/optional (easier when scrolling through a
long list of parameters)
- Ensure that module reference, eg. M(foobar) do not include the module
document title
This PR includes:
- A fix to untemplated {{ plugin_type }} in docs
- Remove the additional info on how to edit module docs (see #36667)
- Add missing delimiter
This is something I always wanted, a 'Edit on GitHub' button for module
documentation.
I also removed the additional statement in the footer with instructions
on how to edit the module documentation.
PS The links go directly into the GitHub file editor now !
* Fixed indentation error in `facts-demo.yml` example.
`content` and `dest` should be indented under the `copy` module.
* Updated indentation of copy module in `facts-demo.yml` example.
Updated indentation of copy module in `facts-demo.yml` to be inline with its name.
* Add anchors to some guides and all module categories
This is required if we want to use *absolute* :ref: references instead of *relative* :doc: references.
* Update the Cisco ACI Guide reference
* Add `aci_guide` anchor
* Add `network_guide` anchor
* Add category anchor
* Improve readability
* Fix small typo
* Add instructions for creating backport PRs
* Update development_process.rst
simpler workflow
* Update development_process.rst
added origin note
* A few adjustments to clarity, use backport instead of cherry pick in branch name
* Address formatting issue
* fetch isn't a flag
* Fix rst formatting
After initializing a list in both Python2/Python3 with below elements,
I've tested the indexing and realised that the examples provided in the
documentation are erroneous.
As a result, update the examples with correct values in order to avoid
any future confusion.

Since we pass information directly to ACI, we sometimes get error messages back to the user that require some additional information or context.
This PR includes:
- Changes to the default error output so the error is easier to find
when searching in e.g. Google
- 3 specific error messages that we have encountered and has confused
our users before
* Change wording of Going Further section
The original wording was confusing with its non-devel branch part.
Made it much clearer for people to understand what to do.
Also removed the git command for creating branches, I believe a
develop should be aware of how basic git commands work.
* Edited for concision and clarity.
* Typo fix
* Typo fix
* Assorted set of fixes
* Cosmetic changes to lists
* Add more information related to connection throttling
* Changes to TOC
* Document return values
* More improvements
* Fix casing in title
* Add examples to YAMLSyntax; fix minor issues and improve wording
I added proper titles to "Flow Collections" and "Block Scalars", because these
are official YAML Terms, so people can find better help when having issues.
I changed the "ignored newlines" to "folded newlines" because I think ignoring
gives a wrong impression, especially since empty lines (more than one newline)
are not ignored and have a special meaning.
I added an example how to enforce a newline in a folded block scalar.
I fixed the list of characters that are allowed/not allowed in plain and
double quoted scalars.
I added the #yaml channel to the IRC link.
I added links to the YAML Specs. For completeness, I also included YAML 1.2,
although PyYAML and libyaml currently implement 1.1.
* Improve wording
* Add three more characters to forbidden first characters
* Update some examples to use proper YAML syntax.
* Make the requested changes so this builds properly.
Also fix emphasis line numbers to match what was being emphasized before
the change.
This change deprecates vsphere_guest in favor of vmware_guest and other
related modules.
The major reasons behind deprecation are -
- Pysphere - Unofficial Python bindings of vCenter deprecated in the year 2013.
- VMware provides official Python bindings for vCenter, which is used in vmware_guest.
- vcsim - simulator used in integration testing of vmware module does not support PySphere
APIs, which makes it more difficult to test vsphere_guest.

Enforce module deprecation.
After module has reached the end of it's deprecation cycle we will replace it with a docs stub.
* Replace deprecated modules with docs-only sub
* Use of deprecated past deprecation cycle gives meaningful message (see examples below)
* Enforce documentation.deprecation dict via `schema.py`
* Update `ansible-doc` and web docs to display documentation.deprecation
* Document that structure in `dev_guide`
* Ensure that all modules starting with `_` have a `deprecation:` block
* Ensure `deprecation:` block is only used on modules that start with `_`
* `removed_in` A string which represents when this module needs **deleting**
* CHANGELOG.md and porting_guide_2.5.rst list removed modules as well as alternatives
* CHANGELOG.md links to porting guide index
To ensure that meaningful messages are given to the user if they try to use a module at the end of it's deprecation cycle we enforce the module to contain:
```python
if __name__ == '__main__':
removed_module()
```
The script fails if a Temp directory is not present in the system drive (e.g. C:\Temp).
This can be solved by using the TEMP environment variable instead.
Comparing the old module docs, with the devel docs the
options/arguments/parameters are no longer sorted.
Also, both in the old module docs and the devel docs the result values
are not sorted where they probably should.
This fix corrects the module state returned by github_module.
Now,
* When the release already exists, state is "ok"
* When the release is created, state is "changed"

* add documentation around commonly-used Facts for Conditionals
There are a few Facts that are often used for Conditionals, so
documenting them on the Conditionals page with their possible values.
