* Fix docs to specify when python2.6+ is required (due to a library
dep). This helps us know when it is okay to use python2.6+ syntax in
the file.
* remove BabyJson returns. See #1211 This commit fixes all but the
openstack modules.
* Use if __name__ == '__main__' to only run the main part of the module
if the module is run as a program. This allows for the potential to
unittest the code later.
Context: I recently discovered that when setting a fact, key=value pairs and complex arguments differ in how the fact is stored. For example, when attempting to use complex arguments using key=values, the result can be stored as a unicode string as opposed to an object/list/etc.
I'm hoping the above example update will better demonstrate to and instruct people to use complex arguments instead of key=value pairs in certain situations.
* Added capability to support multiple keys, so clients from different
machines can connect to a single daemon instance
* Any activity on the daemon will cause the timeout to extend, so that the
daemon must be idle for the full number of minutes before it will auto-
shutdown
* Various other small fixes to remove some redundancy
Fixes#5171
This fixes an issue related to the new run_command changes, whereby
Popen fails to run a command when an executable is specified + shell=False
and there are multiple positional arguments (see Popen docs for details)
The example for the fail module doesn't work:
http://www.ansibleworks.com/docs/modules.html#fail
The current text shows:
- fail: msg="The system may not be provisioned according to the CMDB status."
when: "{{ cmdb_status }} != 'to-be-staged'"
The "when" documentation indicates that the argument is already a Jinja2
expression:
http://www.ansibleworks.com/docs/playbooks_conditionals.html#the-when-statement
Thus, the following is
when: cmdb_status != "to-be-staged"
is preferred even though the following could work but generates a
deprecation warning:
when: {{cmdb_status != "to-be-staged"}}
