* Add yaml output plugin
Using YAML instead of JSON for detailed output can (IMO) improve
readability; especially for tasks with either lots of output, or
multi-line output.
* Fix yaml output plugin documentation
* Added copyright header to yaml.py
* Moved mention of yaml output plugin to `New Modules` section
* Use AnsibleDumper in yaml output plugin
Also moved the `represent_scalar` setup into the init method. As a
global statement, it was causing exceptions trying to get an `id`
field that does not exist.
* Remove trailing whitespace
* Remove useless json.loads/dumps from yaml output
- old functionality is still available direct lookup use, the following are equivalent
with_nested: [[1,2,3], ['a','b','c']]
loop: "{{lookup('nested', [1,2,3], ['a','b','c'])}}"
- avoid squashing with 'loop:'
- fixed test to use new intenal attributes
- removed most of 'lookup docs' as these now reside in the plugins
* win_scheduled_task_stat: add new module to get stat on scheduled tasks
* fixed up linting errors and aliases file
* I should learn how to spell
* removing URI from test
* added state information for the task
* removed argument so task stays running
since we want to make namespaced facts drop ansible_ prefix but don't have the
time before release to perfect this feature, we are going to postpone it for now
until we have the resources to fix this issue. That way we won't have people relying
on the 'incorrect' names for a release.
