Split module into a main calling function, and a generic
(Linux useradd/usermod/userdel) User class.
Added a __new__ function that selects most appropriate superclass
Added a FreeBSD User class
Tested against FreeBSD 9.0
This allows one to create a SSH key for user. You may define:
ssh_key_type, ssh_key_bits, ssh_key_file, ssh_key_comment,
and ssh_key_passphrase. If no passphrase is provided, the
key will be passphrase-less. This will not overwrite an existing key.
In the JSON returned, it will provide the ssh_fingerprint and
ssh_key_file.
Added required as optional argument to get_bin_path(). It defaults to
false. Updated following modules to use required=True when calling
get_bin_path(): apt_repository, easy_install, group, pip,
supervisorctl, and user.
Also removed _find_supervisorctl() from supervisorctl module and updated
_is_running() to not need it.
* Migraed easy_install, pip, service, setup, and user.
* Updated fail_json message in apt_repository
* Fixed easy_install to not hardcode location of virtualenv in
/usr/local/bin/.
* Made handling of virtualenv more consistent between easy_install and
pip.
This adds user_password() to abstract how the user's password is looked
up. If spwd is not available, this will read the shadow file for the
user's shadow entry. This will then facilitate idempotent password
changes on hosts without spwd.
(Also a fix for the user module error handling when the user
is not present at the time of the return. This can only really be caused by multiple ansible executions).
The user module now returns the output, both stdout and stderr, from
useradd, usermod, and userdel. This should help debug cases why one of
those commands fail. In addition, the user module will now call
fail_json() when the attempted command failed so as to properly
communicate a failure in a playbook.
I think when we stopped using stderr for debugging modules because
paramiko didn't like it, many modules used the idiom of defining
a debug function that used standard error. The def's and calls were
removed.
This looks like a stray debug() that didn't get removed and didn't
show up unless you alter a user's groups. If it's hit, 'user' fails
with a global undefined function error.
The ohai and facter modules use /usr/bin/logger to log the fact that
they have been invoked. I added 'import os' to the ping module
so that it could have the same syslog statements as the other modules.
I separated the condensed:
shlex.split(open(argfile, 'r').read())
into two separate statements similar to the other modules.
This adds some logic when usings groups possibly in combination with append
if just specifying groups and the current groups do not match the list
set groups
if specifying groups with append and any group thats not in the current groups
set groups with -a
Creates system accounts/groups; corresponds to the '-r' option for {user,group}add.
The option is only honored when users/groups are added, not when modified.
This adds two options to the user module: groups and append. groups is
a comma-delimited list of supplementary groups a user should belong to.
If a user is currently a member of a group not listed in groups, the
user will be removed from it. To change this behavior, use append=yes.
This will append the user to the list of supplementary groups and *not*
remove the user from unlisted groups.
This changes the gid option to group. One may provide a primary group
as either a gid or a name. The module will then check to verify that
the group already exists. If the group does not already exist, the
module will fail.
This relies on useradd, usermod, and userdel utilities on the system.
The argument name is required; if state is not provided, present is
assumed. Other options supported for creating or modifying an existing
account: uid, gid, comment, home, shell, and password. If managing the
password, it must already be encrypted. When creating an account, you
can also provide the argument createhome to control whether the home
directory is created. Arguments supported for deleting an account are:
force (remove account even if user is logged in) and remove (remove home
directory).
