* Try to clarify the wording
People were confused by this paragraph. They read it as Ansible won't
auto-detect the python interpreter until 2.12. Tried to reword it so
that they'll see that Ansible will auto-detect it currently if
/usr/bin/python is not present and in the future will always autodetect.
* Format the other instances of /usr/bin/python using :command:
Refactor vmware_cluster into several modules (vmware_cluster, vmware_cluster_drs, vmware_cluster_ha and vmware_cluster_vsan) as discussed in #58023.
vmware_cluster lacks a lot of configuration options for DRS, HA and vSAN. Implementing them
all in vmware_cluster would make the module hard to maintain. Therefore, splitting it into several
modules and implementing the missing configuration options in them seems a good idea to me.
This is step one, refactoring vmware_cluster into several modules. Step two, implementing more
configuration options for DRS, HA and vSAN, will follow.
* Render elements in module doc and sanity test for suboptions
* Add support to render module elements value in ansible-doc output
module html
* Add validate-module sanity test of sunoptions.
* Add current validate module failures to ignore list
* Fix CI failure
* fix rebase conflict
* Fix CI issues
* Fix review comments
* Add validate-modules failure in ignore list
- Use predictable VM name during the tests (test_vm1, test_vm2 and
test_vm2). This to simplify the teardown of the newly created resource
before the next test.
- Update the documentation to explain the new requirement
- Avoid VM creation with `with_items` when it's not mandatory. This to:
- speed up the test execution, our hypervisors have limited resources
- simplify the teardown
- Remove `create_d1_c1_f0_env.yml`, the test was just testing how Ansible
pass environment variables.
- Correct the name for the `f0` variable (`f1`)
- Fix the DVS tests, the hosts can now reach the dvswitch1 vswitch
- Provision the VM with a poweroff status, this to improve the
idempotency and sleep up the tests
- Avoid the use of `prepare_vmware_tests` to prepare virtual machines
when we just need one machine

* Change the documentation commands to make definition files positional
Since the definition files are mandatory, make them positional

We have some common code used by several docs scripts. Migrate that
into the build-only shared code repository.
* Move lib/ansible/utils/_build_helpers.py to the directory for common
build code
* Migrate docs/bin/dump_config.py to a build-ansible subcommand
* Migrate dump_keywords to the build-ansible framework
* Make the script more maintainable by using functions and good
variable names
* Port to Python3 idioms
* Fix bug so that private attributes will be undocumented
* Move generate_man to a build-ansible subcommand
* Port plugin_formatter to a build-ansible subcommand
* Rework command_plugins so that docs scripts can target Python-3.4+ and
releng-only subcommands can use more recent versions of Python.
The architecture is now that command_plugins/* need to be importable
on Python-3.4. The init_parsers() method needs to run on Python-3.4.
But the main() method can utilize features of more recent Python as
long as it fits within those parameters.
* Update docs build requirements
Port the plugin_formatter to build-ansible framework
ansible-test only passes files which have the .py suffix for sanity
tests on python files. This change will allow sanity tests to run on
the Python files in hacking/
* Rename test-module to test-module.py
* Symlink test-module for backwards compat since end users may be using
test-module
* Fix test-module sanity errors that are now triggered
* Rename ansible_profile to ansible-profile.py
* Rename build-ansible
The metaclass boilerplate is safe to apply en masse. The future import
boilerplate needs code to be inspected to be sure that there aren't any
py2isms that need to be fixed. Split these two checks so that we can
fix them independently
Be explicit about which files are grandfathered so we can fix them up one by one

##### SUMMARY
This page is very confusing and may suggest, that there is still a `serial` strategy (like it used to), but now it is just a directive of `linear` strategy. Multiple people reported this to me and it needs change.

Ansible galaxy role download checked for `.tar.gz`, but `tarfile.is_tarfile(...)` can identify and open any valid tarfile. This change uses transparent stream compression to make `.tar.gz` and `.tar.bz2` formats valid with python 2.6.x/2.7.x (as well as `.tar.xz` with python 3.x).
* Add a few examples of how to correctly use `regex_replace` filter
because it behaves differently on different Python versions when using
regex qualifiers that can match an empty string (e.g. '*', '?', etc).
Often when I am helping others learn Ansible, they are using nodes spun up on Amazon/Google/etc. where private key files (pem) are needed. Mentioning just a bit more on how to handle those private key files on the intro_getting_started page will help more folks get started faster.
I even reviewed the changes with my learning team and they all agreed this helped clarify immediately for them how to really get started with Ansible from a practical perspective.

* Added idempotency logic to openssl_pkcs12
Also decoupled the 'parse' and 'generate' function from the file write
as they are now used in different places that do not need the file to be
written to disk.
* Added idempotency tests for openssl_pkcs12
Also adds a new test for pkcs12 files with multiple certificates
* Regenerate if parsed file is invalid
* pkcs12_other_certificates check was wrong
* Updated ca_certificates to other_certificates
ca_certificates is left as an alias to other_certificates;
friendlyname depends on private key, so it will be ignored while
checking for idempotency if the pkey is not set;
idempotency check only checks for correct certs in the stack
* use different keys for different certs
* Added other_certificates in module docs
* Added changelog and porting guide
* removed unrelated porting guide entry
* renamed ca_cert* occurrence with other_cert
This reverts commit 85d836171b.

* Revert config change to comment out the retry_files_enabled line to let the user decided what is best.
Comment above still states how to change.
* Python interpreter discovery
* No longer blindly default to only `/usr/bin/python`
* `ansible_python_interpreter` defaults to `auto_legacy`, which will discover the platform Python interpreter on some platforms (but still favor `/usr/bin/python` if present for backward compatibility). Use `auto` to always use the discovered interpreter, append `_silent` to either value to suppress warnings.

* Remove misleading statement passwords must be same
Since 2.4 Ansible has supported multiple vault passwords:
<https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/user_guide/vault.html#multiple-vault-passwords>
Meaning lines like the following are misleading:
> The password used with vault currently must be the same for all files you wish
> to use together at the same time.
-- `docs/docsite/rst/user_guide/vault.rst`
To demonstrate this with Ansible 2.7, save the following as `example.yaml`:
```
- name: Display output from two vaults with different passwords
hosts: localhost
connection: local
vars_files: [one.yaml, two.yaml]
tasks:
- name: View secret from one.yaml vault
debug: { var: one }
- name: View secret from two.yaml vault
debug: { var: two }
```
Then run the three following commands choosing two different passwords:
```
$ echo 'one: 1' | ansible-vault encrypt --vault-id id1@prompt --output=one.yaml
$ echo 'two: 2' | ansible-vault encrypt --vault-id id2@prompt --output=two.yaml
$ ansible-playbook --vault-id id1@prompt --vault-id id2@prompt example.yaml
```
`ansible-vault` stores an ID in plain text in the vault file.

* Stop loading values from the cli in more than one place
Both play and play_context were saving default values from the cli
arguments directly. This changes things so that the default values are
loaded into the play and then play_context takes them from there.
* Rename BECOME_PLUGIN_PATH to DEFAULT_BECOME_PLUGIN_PATH
As alikins said, all other plugin paths are named
DEFAULT_plugintype_PLUGIN_PATH. If we're going to rename these, that
should be done all at one time rather than piecemeal.
* One to throw away
This is a set of hacks to get setting FieldAttribute defaults to command
line args to work. It's not fully done yet.
After talking it over with sivel and jimi-c this should be done by
fixing FieldAttributeBase and _get_parent_attribute() calls to do the
right thing when there is a non-None default.
What we want to be able to do ideally is something like this:
class Base(FieldAttributeBase):
_check_mode = FieldAttribute([..] default=lambda: context.CLIARGS['check'])
class Play(Base):
# lambda so that we have a chance to parse the command line args
# before we get here. In the future we might be able to restructure
# this so that the cli parsing code runs before these classes are
# defined.
class Task(Base):
pass
And still have a playbook like this function:
---
- hosts:
tasks:
- command: whoami
check_mode: True
(The check_mode test that is added as a separate commit in this PR will
let you test variations on this case).
There's a few separate reasons that the code doesn't let us do this or
a non-ugly workaround for this as written right now. The fix that
jimi-c, sivel, and I talked about may let us do this or it may still
require a workaround (but less ugly) (having one class that has the
FieldAttributes with default values and one class that inherits from
that but just overrides the FieldAttributes which now have defaults)
* Revert "One to throw away"
This reverts commit 23aa883cbed11429ef1be2a2d0ed18f83a3b8064.
* Set FieldAttr defaults directly from CLIARGS
* Remove dead code
* Move timeout directly to PlayContext, it's never needed on Play
* just for backwards compat, add a static version of BECOME_METHODS to constants
* Make the become attr on the connection public, since it's used outside of the connection
* Logic fix
* Nuke connection testing if it supports specific become methods
* Remove unused vars
* Address rebase issues
* Fix path encoding issue
* Remove unused import
* Various cleanups
* Restore network_cli check in _low_level_execute_command
* type improvements for cliargs_deferred_get and swap shallowcopy to default to False
* minor cleanups
* Allow the su plugin to work, since it doesn't define a prompt the same way
* Fix up ksu become plugin
* Only set prompt if build_become_command was called
* Add helper to assist connection plugins in knowing they need to wait for a prompt
* Fix tests and code expectations
* Doc updates
* Various additional minor cleanups
* Make doas functional
* Don't change connection signature, load become plugin from TaskExecutor
* Remove unused imports
* Add comment about setting the become plugin on the playcontext
* Fix up tests for recent changes
* Support 'Password:' natively for the doas plugin
* Make default prompts raw
* wording cleanups. ci_complete
* Remove unrelated changes
* Address spelling mistake
* Restore removed test, and udpate to use new functionality
* Add changelog fragment
* Don't hard fail in set_attributes_from_cli on missing CLI keys
* Remove unrelated change to loader
* Remove internal deprecated FieldAttributes now
* Emit deprecation warnings now
* standardize user/password connection vars
* docs: use ansible_user and ansible_password
* docs: var precedence for connection vars
* docs: ansible_become_pass -> ansible_become_password etc
* Changed 'Control Machine' to 'Control Node' in the documentation. Changing the term 'Control Machine' to 'Control Node', to be in line with the basic concepts here: https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/network/getting_started/basic_concepts.html
Also for both entities; Control/Managed using the same common denominator 'Node' brings consistency.
* Updated reference links to new term.
* Create new documentation pages for httpapi and cliconf
* Add new documentation to plugins toctree and Makefile
* Add DOCUMENTATION to cliconf
* Apply suggestions from code review
