As documented in #2623, early variable substitution causes when_
tests to fail and possibly other side effects.
I can see the reason for this early substitution, likely introduced
in 1dfe60a6, to allow many playbook parameters to be templated.
This is a valid goal, but the recursive nature of the utils.template
function means that it goes too far.
At this point removing tasks from the list of parameters to be
substituted seems sufficient to make my tests pass. It may be the
case that other parameters should be excluded, but I suspect not.
Adding a test case. I would prefer to analyse not just the aggregate
statistics but also whether the results are as expected - I can't
see an easy way to do that with the available callbacks at present.
When operating on a unicode string in python 2.6, shlex.split returns
a result that does not work with the file constructor.
To reproduce this requires a task include that is templated (this is
because the templated string is a unicode result, whereas a non-
templated string is a non-unicode string)

The proposed fix (coercing the include parameters to string before the
shlex.split) may not be ideal but it does fix the bug for my test case.
- added cron_file attribute: if specified, the file with appropriate
job is created in /etc/cron.d directory. Also, you can store multiple
jobs in one file. state='absent' attribute is handled in the following
way in this case: if after the deletion of the job from the file specified
by cron_file variable the file is empty, the file is deleted, otherwise
not.
- fixed the behaviour, when the backupfile is saved forever in /tmp
folder, even if the backup= atribute is not set (os.unlink() is called if
backup is not True).
- added some comments to the unobvious places
Instead of having to remember when to use which one, rename template_ds
to template and move the last bit of code from template to varReplace
(which gets used for all string replacements, in the end).
This means that you can template any data type without worrying about
whether it's a string or not, and the right thing will happen.
Pretty straightforward. Give it a URL with an exported GPG key for signing an
Apt repository. It downloads it and will install it using apt-key. It's even
smart enough to tell if it's already there (i.e. actually tells you if it
changed or not).
At the moment Ansible prefers yes/no for module booleans, however booleans in playbooks are still using True/False, rather than yes/no. This changes modifies boolean uses in playbooks (and man pages) to favor yes/no rather than True/False.
This change includes:
- Adaptation of documentation and examples to favor yes/no
- Modification to manpage output to favor yes/no (the docsite output already favors yes/no)
This allows patterns such as webservers:!debian:&datacenter1 to target
hosts in the webservers group, that are not in the debian group, but are
in the datacenter1 group. It also parses patterns left to right.
Test for when environment variable and configuration file
variable both set now tests that the environment variable takes
precedence
Removed logic that would never be triggered from
lib/ansible/constants.py
pipes.quote is a bit overzealous for what we want to do, quoting ;
and other characters that you most likely want to use in your shell
invocations. The regexp is the best I could come up with to be able
to only replace the parts of the arguments that shouldn't be
executed.
Automatic quoting of variables in only_if breaks existing playbooks
where entire statements are put in a variable, and other cases. See
issue #1120 for details.
This fixes a few issues,
- ${foo}${bar} would be parsed as a variable named foo}${bar,
which wouldn't be easily fixed without breaking ${foo.${bar}}
- allows escaping . in variable parts so e.g.
${hostvars.{test.example.com}.foo} works
This is slower than using re. 3 million templating calls take about
about twice as long to complete with this compared to the regexp,
from ~65 seconds to ~115 seconds on my laptop.
This fixes e.g. only_if: ${task.changed} which would always
evaluate to true due to it having been replaced by a string for its
boolean value. Also adds a test case to ensure it doesn't get
missed again.
When the output of a command is stored in a register, this will create a
stdout_lines field in the result object that contains stdout split into a list
of lines. This list can then be iterated over using with_items.
date still issues warning and ignores TZ
- Updated tests to work inside bsd jails (127 addresses are an issue)

on_skipped callback being passed an extra item parameter that it wasn't
expecting.
Fixed it so that on_skipped in TestCallbacks accepts and ignores the
extra parameter
Extra parameter was added in 4b9b9a8a5b
but not really clear why from commit message
as it is /bin/false on many systems but /usr/bin/false on OS X
test/playbook1.yml now just does command true, rather than command /bin/true,
again so that it works on OS X
Changed from using which false to just using command false to
make it simpler and also match how playbook1.yml works

Allow groups to be defined on a per-host basis
This makes it possible to define on a per-host basis what groups a host is in.
When managing a large set of systems it makes it easier to ensure each of the
systems is defined in a set of groups (e.g. production/qa/development,
linux/solaris/aix) rather than having to add systems to multiple disconnected
groups.
----
- host: system01
- host: system02
- host: system03
- group: linux
hosts:
- system01
- system02
- group: solaris
hosts:
- system03
- group: production
hosts:

- group: qa
- system02
- group: dbserver
hosts:
- system01
- group: ntpserver
hosts:

- group: webserver
- system03

Can be redefined as:
----
- host: system01
groups: [ linux, production, dbserver ]
- host: system02

- host: system03

This flag will show playbook output from non-failing commands. -v is also added to /usr/bin/ansible, but not yet used.
I also gutted some internals code dealing with 'invocations' which allowed the callback to know what module invoked
it. This is not something 0.5 does or needed, so callbacks have been simplified.
This adds a module that concatenates (ie. assembles) a file from
fragments in a directory in alphabetical order. It chains the file
module afterward to fix up ownership and permission. This also adds
tests for the assemble module with fragments in assemble.d.
In playbooks, hosts can be a YAML list. We templated the list before
converting it to a semicolon-separated string, which actually templated its
repr. This converts to a string first. A basic unit test is included.
If we want to test playbooks, it's best to test the result of a playbook to make sure it does the correct thing. Also
remove playbook2/3 yml which were not used.
See test/yaml_hosts for an example.
Hosts can be part of multiple groups.
Groups can also have variables, inherited by the hosts.
There is no variable scope, last variable seen wins.
not being consistent between runs, even though there wasn't an error. Now we'll just check the final change
counts, which should be just as solid and lead to less churn in the events file.
refactoring of playbooks now warranted, which we'll do before we move on. This variable assignment
system makes nearly all possible magic possible, for we can use these variables however we like,
even as module names!
