* Fix ansible-doc traceback when a plugin doesn't parse correctly * Change extract_metadata ivocation to take either an ast or source code. When given source code, it can find file offsets for the start and end of dict. When given the ast, it is quicker as it doesn't have to reparse the source. Requires changing the call to the function to use a keyword arg. * Fix reading of metadata to find the last occurrence of ANSIBLE_METADATA instead of the first. * Add some more unittests to get closer to complete coverage |

'Hacking' directory tools
Env-setup
The 'env-setup' script modifies your environment to allow you to run ansible from a git checkout using python 2.6+. (You may not use python 3 at this time).
First, set up your environment to run from the checkout:
$ source ./hacking/env-setup
You will need some basic prerequisites installed. If you do not already have them and do not wish to install them from your operating system package manager, you can install them from pip
$ easy_install pip # if pip is not already available
$ pip install -r requirements.txt
From there, follow ansible instructions on docs.ansible.com as normal.
Test-module
'test-module' is a simple program that allows module developers (or testers) to run a module outside of the ansible program, locally, on the current machine.
Example:
$ ./hacking/test-module -m lib/ansible/modules/commands/shell -a "echo hi"
This is a good way to insert a breakpoint into a module, for instance.
For more complex arguments such as the following yaml:
parent:
child:
- item: first
val: foo
- item: second
val: boo
Use:
$ ./hacking/test-module -m module \
-a "{"parent": {"child": [{"item": "first", "val": "foo"}, {"item": "second", "val": "bar"}]}}"
Module-formatter
The module formatter is a script used to generate manpages and online module documentation. This is used by the system makefiles and rarely needs to be run directly.
Authors
'authors' is a simple script that generates a list of everyone who has contributed code to the ansible repository.
