Toshio Kuratomi 512825455e Make ohai and facter work via module_utils Fact classes rather than in the setup module 9 years ago
Toshio Kuratomi 5a1e35224b Make changes proposed during review of restrict fact gathering feature:
* Make documentation examples into code blocks
* Make code to call the subsets more general.
* Made min subset always execute (cannot disable it).
* Use a passed in modules parameter rather than global modules.  This is needed for ziploader
* Remove unneeded __init__()
* Remove uneeded multiple inheritance from a base class
* gather_facts is now a list type

Sandra Wills c172a289e4 light editing of variable precedence list wording
QA had asked me a while ago to clean up the way the precedence list for 1.x was worded,
as the intro from the list started with "then comes", as if something should preceed
it. The comments from OxABAB were not helpful themselves, but his issue reminded me that
this was on my to do list to make a little cleaner and clearer.  Edits made to remove the
"then comes" intros for each list line, to help with clarity.

The correct default options for sudo_flags can be found at: https://github.com/ansible/ansible/blob/devel/lib/ansible/constants.py#L181

Slightly alter explanation of '-H' so as not to confuse it with -E, --preserve-env (which preserves existing environment variables).

When adding the two other options, include short explanations of those options.

Add note about '-n', which did not appear in 1.x I believe, and which bit me.

Sebastian Thiel 28be222ff0 correct invocation of launchctl
When I executed `launchctl limit maxfiles 1024 2048` , my entire system would become unusable, as all of the sudden no process could use any file anymore, reporting that the max file limit was reached.
Only a hard reboot could fix the problem, which fortunately revealed that the configuration was not saved.

The change I made *should* remedy the issue, even though I didn't test it.
Therefore I hope you can revise the documentation to be sure nothing bad happens.

Abhijit Menon-Sen 8cf1815867 Add an 'extract' filter
At its most basic, this is nothing more than an array or hash lookup,
but when used in conjunction with map, it is very useful. For example,
while constructing an "ssh-keyscan …" command to update known_hosts on
all hosts in a group, one can get a list of IP addresses with:

    groups['x']|map('extract', hostvars, 'ec2_ip_address')|list

This returns hostvars[a].ec2_ip_address, hostvars[b].ec2_ip_address, and
so on. You can even specify an array of keys for a recursive lookup, and
mix string and integer keys depending on what you're looking up:

    ['localhost']|map('extract', hostvars, ['vars','group_names',0])|first
        == hostvars['localhost']['vars']['group_names'][0]
            == 'ungrouped'

Includes documentation and tests.

Timothy Appnel a8e1ec585d Consistent inventory pattern delimiter in docs
The inventory pattern delimiter used in the examples switches between the comma and colon. While both are valid I've found this throws off new users so I've modified the examples to consistently use a colon, the more common of the two in my experience.

doc: cloudstack guide fix up
9 years ago
Robin Schneider ad0d299c56
Avoid key names which are valid attributes for data types in Python.
Closes #12990.

Alternative to #12992

This PR excludes all attributes of the following data types: lists,
tuples, dicts, sets, integers, floats, strings and Unicode objects.

It is expected that only the attributes of dicts and sets would cause an
problem like in #12990.

jaamiller 4359189884 Update playbooks_lookups.rst
I was caught out by the different behaviour of lookups & local tasks, and could not find the difference documented anywhere at all, so I took the liberty of proposing this change.

Lookups are always relative to the role or play.
Local tasks are relative to the cwd from which you execute.

In the installation guide, the raw module is mentioned as an option for
installing Python or simplejson on managed nodes that don't have them.
This change adds an example for users that may already be familiar with
using ansible but are checking install docs because they don't know the
requirements for managed nodes, or are using a distribution that doesn't
include Python 2 by default.

Sandra Wills f24fbb04c9 note modified a bit, then reviewed/approved by jmartin
Ansible 2.0 has depricated the “ssh” from ansible_ssh_user,
ansible_ssh_host, and ansible_ssh_port to become ansible_user,
ansible_host, and ansible_port. If you are using a version of
Ansible prior to 2.0, you should continue using the older style
variables (ansible_ssh_*). These shorter variables are ignored,
without warning, in older versions of Ansible.
9 years ago
Sandra Wills 6af2b2a4cb added note about ansible_ssh_* change
added a note like the following to each file hit with unlabled 2.0 changes...
Ansible 2.0 moved away from using ansible_ssh_* variables to accepting
ansible_* variables. If you are using a version of Ansible prior to 2.0,
you should continue using the older style variables (ansible_ssh_*), such
as ansible_ssh_user instead of ansible_user and ansible_ssh_port instead of
ansible_port, which appear in the following content. These shorter variables
are ignored, without warning, in older versions of Ansible.

Abhijit Menon-Sen 3ad9b4cba6 Rework additional ssh argument handling
Now we have the following ways to set additional arguments:

1. [ssh_connection]ssh_args in ansible.cfg: global setting, prepended to
   every command line for ssh/scp/sftp. Overrides default ControlPersist
   settings.
2. ansible_ssh_common_args inventory variable. Appended to every command
   line for ssh/scp/sftp. Used in addition to ssh_args, if set above, or
   the default settings.
3. ansible_{sftp,scp,ssh}_extra_args inventory variables. Appended to
   every command line for the relevant binary only. Used in addition to
   #1 and #2, if set above, or the default settings.
3. Using the --ssh-common-args or --{sftp,scp,ssh}-extra-args command
   line options (which are overriden by #2 and #3 above).

This preserves backwards compatibility (for ssh_args in ansible.cfg),
but also permits global settings (e.g. ProxyCommand via _common_args) or
ssh-specific options (e.g. -R via ssh_extra_args).

#9130 rebase: EC2 Inventory Boto Profile Support
9 years ago
Jameel Al-Aziz c08137a3d2 Update ec2 inventory documentation to refer to AWS_PROFILE 9 years ago
willthames 9c967dd054 Allow ec2 inventory to use a boto profile
This allows the EC2 inventory plugin to be used with
the same configuration against different EC2 accounts

Profile can be passed using --profile variable or using
EC2_PROFILE environment variable e.g.

```
EC2_PROFILE=prod ansible-playbook -i ec2.py playbook.yml
```

Added documentation on profiles to EC2 dynamic inventory doc

Only tries to use profiles if --profile argument is given
or EC2_PROFILE is set to maintain compatibility will boto < 2.24.

Works around a minor bug in boto where if you try and use
a security token with a profile it fails (boto/boto#2100)
