Peter Sprygada 1e68881c40 adds support for null values to the ternary filter (#45303)
* adds support for null values to the ternary filter

This change adds a third optional argument to the ternary filter to
handle a null value.  If the third option is specified null and false
are treated differently.

For instance, take the following example:

{{ enabled | ternary('no shutdown', 'shutdown') }}

If enabled == True, then 'no shutdown' is used.
If enabled in (False, None), then 'shutdown' is used.

With this change the following is possible:

{{ enabled | ternary('no shutdown', 'shutdown', omit) }}

If enabled == True, then 'no shutdown'
If enabled == False, then 'shutdown'
If enabled == None, then omit

* update documentation with example of filter

`pip install ansible[azure]` results in `zsh: no matches found: ansible[azure]` at least in my computer (zsh on Ubuntu). I don't know if it is the case with all shells, but at least for me it is. Since square brackets `[]` are special characters in bash, I propose adding single quotes to make sure that package name is always interpreted as literal. The same error is also resolvable by setting noglob.

Matthias Fuchs 7871027c9d Share the implementation of hashing for both vars_prompt and password_hash (#21215)
* Share the implementation of hashing for both vars_prompt and password_hash.
* vars_prompt with encrypt does not require passlib for the algorithms
  supported by crypt.
* Additional checks ensure that there is always a result.
  This works around issues in the crypt.crypt python function that returns
  None for algorithms it does not know.
  Some modules (like user module) interprets None as no password at all,
  which is misleading.
* The password_hash filter supports all parameters of passlib.
  This allows users to provide a rounds parameter, fixing #15326.
* password_hash is not restricted to the subset provided by crypt.crypt,
  fixing one half of #17266.
* Updated documentation fixes other half of #17266.
* password_hash does not hard-code the salt-length, which fixes bcrypt
  in connection with passlib.
  bcrypt requires a salt with length 22, which fixes #25347
* Salts are only generated by ansible when using crypt.crypt.
  Otherwise passlib generates them.
* Avoids deprecated functionality of passlib with newer library versions.
* When no rounds are specified for sha256/sha256_crypt and sha512/sha512_crypt
  always uses the default values used by crypt, i.e. 5000 rounds.
  Before when installed passlibs' defaults were used.
  passlib changes its defaults with newer library versions, leading to non
  idempotent behavior.

  NOTE: This will lead to the recalculation of existing hashes generated
        with passlib and without a rounds parameter.
        Yet henceforth the hashes will remain the same.
        No matter the installed passlib version.
        Making these hashes idempotent.

Fixes #15326
Fixes #17266
Fixes #25347 except bcrypt still uses 2a, instead of the suggested 2b.

* random_salt is solely handled by encrypt.py.
  There is no _random_salt function there anymore.
  Also the test moved to test_encrypt.py.
* Uses pytest.skip when passlib is not available, instead of a silent return.
* More checks are executed when passlib is not available.

* Moves tests that require passlib into their own test-function.

* Uses the six library to reraise the exception.

* Fixes integration test.

When no rounds are provided the defaults of crypt are used.
In that case the rounds are not part of the resulting MCF output.

Toshio Kuratomi 52449cc01a AnsiballZ improvements
Now that we don't need to worry about python-2.4 and 2.5, we can make
some improvements to the way AnsiballZ handles modules.

* Change AnsiballZ wrapper to use import to invoke the module
  We need the module to think of itself as a script because it could be
  coded as:

      main()

  or as:

      if __name__ == '__main__':
          main()

  Or even as:

      if __name__ == '__main__':
          random_function_name()

  A script will invoke all of those.  Prior to this change, we invoked
  a second Python interpreter on the module so that it really was
  a script.  However, this means that we have to run python twice (once
  for the AnsiballZ wrapper and once for the module).  This change makes
  the module think that it is a script (because __name__ in the module ==
  '__main__') but it's actually being invoked by us importing the module
  code.

  There's three ways we've come up to do this.
  * The most elegant is to use zipimporter and tell the import mechanism
    that the module being loaded is __main__:
    * 5959f11c9d/lib/ansible/executor/module_common.py (L175)
    * zipimporter is nice because we do not have to extract the module from
      the zip file and save it to the disk when we do that.  The import
      machinery does it all for us.
    * The drawback is that modules do not have a __file__ which points
      to a real file when they do this.  Modules could be using __file__
      to for a variety of reasons, most of those probably have
      replacements (the most common one is to find a writable directory
      for temporary files.  AnsibleModule.tmpdir should be used instead)
      We can monkeypatch __file__ in fom AnsibleModule initialization
      but that's kind of gross.  There's no way I can see to do this
      from the wrapper.

  * Next, there's imp.load_module():
    * https://github.com/abadger/ansible/blob/340edf7489/lib/ansible/executor/module_common.py#L151
    * imp has the nice property of allowing us to set __name__ to
      __main__ without changing the name of the file itself
    * We also don't have to do anything special to set __file__ for
      backwards compatibility (although the reason for that is the
      drawback):
    * Its drawback is that it requires the file to exist on disk so we
      have to explicitly extract it from the zipfile and save it to
      a temporary file

  * The last choice is to use exec to execute the module:
    * https://github.com/abadger/ansible/blob/f47a4ccc76/lib/ansible/executor/module_common.py#L175
    * The code we would have to maintain for this looks pretty clean.
      In the wrapper we create a ModuleType, set __file__ on it, read
      the module's contents in from the zip file and then exec it.
    * Drawbacks: We still have to explicitly extract the file's contents
      from the zip archive instead of letting python's import mechanism
      handle it.
    * Exec also has hidden performance issues and breaks certain
      assumptions that modules could be making about their own code:
      http://lucumr.pocoo.org/2011/2/1/exec-in-python/

  Our plan is to use imp.load_module() for now, deprecate the use of
  __file__ in modules, and switch to zipimport once the deprecation
  period for __file__ is over (without monkeypatching a fake __file__ in
  via AnsibleModule).

* Rename the name of the AnsiBallZ wrapped module
  This makes it obvious that the wrapped module isn't the module file that
  we distribute.  It's part of trying to mitigate the fact that the module
  is now named __main)).py in tracebacks.

* Shield all wrapper symbols inside of a function
  With the new import code, all symbols in the wrapper become visible in
  the module.  To mitigate the chance of collisions, move most symbols
  into a toplevel function.  The only symbols left in the global namespace
  are now _ANSIBALLZ_WRAPPER and _ansiballz_main.

Brian Campbell fa5c0282a4 Use colspan on td instead of divs for hierarchical tables (#39948)
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.
