##### Issue Type:
Bugfix Pull Request
##### Ansible Version:
ansible 1.4.3
##### Environment:
N/A
##### Summary:
We are using a wrapper python script to run ansible-playbook. We use subprocess to execute and print the stdout as and when its written. Problem is when we use pause it doesn't display the prompt string as raw_input does not flush stdout before reading from stdin.
It looks like a dirty fix to add "\n" to the prompt string but i don't see any other way to over come this. If anyone else have a better fix please do propose/suggest.
##### Steps To Reproduce:
```yaml
#File: test_play.yml
- name: Test
hosts: $nodes
gather_facts: false
tasks:
- name: Waiting for User
local_action: pause prompt="Do you want to continue (yes/no)? "
```
```python
#!/usr/bin/env python
#File: test.py
import shlex, subprocess
def run_process(process):
process = process.encode("utf-8")
command = shlex.split(process)
p = subprocess.Popen(command, stdout=subprocess.PIPE, stderr=subprocess.STDOUT)
for line in iter(p.stdout.readline, b''):
print line,
cmd = "/usr/bin/python -u /usr/bin/ansible-playbook -i hosts.txt test_play.yml -e 'nodes=local'"
run_process(cmd)
```
```
shell $ python test.py
```
##### Expected Results:
```
PLAY [Test] *******************************************************************
TASK: [Waiting for User] ******************************************************
[localhost]
Do you want to continue (yes/no)? :
```
##### Actual Results:
```
PLAY [Test] *******************************************************************
TASK: [Waiting for User] ******************************************************
[localhost]

Addresses GH-5116.
It comes up that when parsing json that if you are missing the last double quote on the last variable and the next line is just '}' we will get an out of range error. In this instance we will also then make sure that the line is long enough to have two colons.
Create a lookup plugin named dict that can be used to loop over hashes.
It converts a dict into a list of key-value pairs, with attributes named
"key" and "value." Also adds a brief explanation and simple example to
the docs.

Bugfixes:
* the remote_src param was not being converted to a boolean correctly,
resulting in it never being used by the module as the default behavior
was remote_src=True (issue #5581)
* the remote_src param was not listed in the generic file params, leading
to a failure when the above bug regarding remote_src was fixed
* the delimiter should always end with a newline to ensure that the file
fragments do not run together on one line
Fixes#5581
This occurred when a hash would be passed in via extra args and the
hash variable behavior was set to 'merge', which resulted in the
variable from extra args replacing the playbook variable.
When content is processed and found to be valid JSON it is decoded into a dict. To write it out to a file we need to encode it back into a string.
Addresses GH-5914.
When disabled, the boto connection will be instantiated without validating
the SSL certificate from the target endpoint. This allows the modules to connect
to Eucalyptus instances running with self-signed certs without errors.
Fixes#3978
There is a bit going on with the changes here. Most of the changes are cleanup of files so that they line up with the standard files.
PR #5136 was merged into the current devel and brought up to working order. A few bug fixes had to be done to get the code to test correctly. Thanks out to @pib!
Issue #5431 was not able to be confirmed as it behaved as expected with a sudo user.
Tests were added via a playbook with archive files to verify functionality.
All tests fire clean including custom playbooks across multiple linux and solaris systems.
It turns out that some of the assumptions in #5885 were slightly off. The previous fix relied on a call to the module to creat a tmp_path. This is insufficent as there are few cases that we need to have the tmp directory before we make the module call. If we don't have a tmp_path before we do a recursive call or when we find a file that does not match the remote md5 hash we need to create a tmp directory. Also we are not more percise when we will need to clean up the remote tmp_path.
This doesn't account for boto configs where e.g. RDS has one
default region and EC2 another - all will default to `ec2_region_name`.
However, this is just handy to allow an easy site wide default
region if existing configuration already relies on it.
Modules can be improved to mention this in the documentation and
turn off required=True where needed. But it works with `ec2`
and `ec2_vol` without change.
Refactor the currently well-factored ec2 modules (i.e. those that already use ec2_connect) to
have a common argument spec. The idea is that new modules can use this spec without duplication
of code, and that new functionality can be added to the ec2 connection code (e.g. security
token argument)
We break the read while loop after waiting "the end of the process" and
the pipes are empty, otherwise we do another select that waits all the
timeout.
The copy action_plugin is not easy to read. Part of this commit is taking that file, restructuring it, and adding comments. No functionality changed in how it interacts with the world.
The fix for #5739 ends up being the assumption that there is a cleanup 'rm -rf' that happens at the end of the copy loop. This was not the fact before and we made a bunch of tmp directories that we hoped would end up being cleaned up. Now we just use the tmp directory that the runner provides and cleanup inline if it is a single file to be coppied or after the loop if it is a recursive copy.
As a part of this we did end up having to change runner to provide a flag so that we could short the inline tmp directory removal. This flag defaults to True so it will not change the behavior of other modules that are being called.
In particular, do not rely on the $USER environment variable always existing.
tmux for example seems to clear it, causing lots of invalid messages:
"previous known host file not found"
This broke in commit 80fd22dc, but instead of reverting that commit, we now
fall back to expanding just ~ when $USER is not set.
su_user_var. My last PR was only half merged, and when the bug fix for
the su/su_pass typo was merged, the removed line in this commit was
mistakenly reintroduced.
this variable has the 'current host list' to be executed over in the
play. Useful when using --limit to not iterate over hosts not included
in play in templates or with_items.
