from __future__ unicode_literals leads to developer confusion as
developers no longer can tell whether a bare literal string is a byte
string or a unicode string. Explicit marking as u"" or b"" is the way
to solve the same problem in the Ansbile codebase.
* Change ansible-doc usage to show -a is for internal use
ansible-doc -a is for testing that documentation is sane. It should not
be used by normal users in production. The main reason for this is that
it is designed to fail if there are any undocumented modules or plugins.
This is good for testing that all plugins we ship are documented. It is
not good for end users who may have undocumented third-party plugins.
The config variables defined with eval, like INVENTORY_IGNORE_EXTS,
are not stored properly once the eval is processed.
This causes references to the constant to still have the eval in the
value.
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.
* Adding tls settings for Zabbix host
* Using the correct Ansible version
* Removing wildcard import
* Added module_utils package
* Set version_added for visible_name back to 2.3
* Added description for >= Zabbix 3.0; Added parameters for function
* Setting version_added --> 2.5; Removed trailing whitespace
* This commit includes a unit test to exercise the _is_role
function and make sure it doesn't break in any Python version.
* Import os.path and other minor fixups
* Remove 'required: false' statements from the argument docs
* Remove 'required=False' parameters from argument spec
* Remove 'default: null' statements from the argument docs
This adds the --syn option to filter SYN packets. Can be negated.
I added a generic append_match_flag function which can be used to add
match flags without parameters. It also allows negating the flag
if the added param allows this.
Not sure if I took the best approach here so all feedback welcome :)
* cloud: azure: fix typo introduced in commit 16d23e9
The commit "Add reference to VNET resource group (#26052)"
removed an used variable.
* network: aos: error hint never shown
- better variable precedence management
- universal plugin option handling
- also updated comments for future directions
- leverage fragments for plugins
- removed fact namespacing
- added 'firendly name' field
- updated missing descriptions
- removed some unused yaml entries, updated others to reflect possible future
- documented more plugins
- allow reading docs using alias
- short licenses
- corrected args for 'all plugins'
- fixed -a option for ansible-doc
- updated vars plugins to allow docs
- fixed 'gathering'
- only set options IF connection
- added path list and renamed pathspec mostly the diff is , vs : as separator
- readded removed config entries that were deprecated but had no message ... and deprecated again
- now deprecated entries give warning when set
The ec2_vpc_route_table module notifies about a change on the route table when the instance Id of the NAT instance has changed, but in fact, nothing changes. The module call the create_route function the AWS SDK to add a new route with the same cidr. The AWS SDK should return an error instead of nothing.
Call replace_route function instead of create_route when a route table with the same cidr but with different target destination is present.
* let generate_man also gen rst pages for cli tools
* make template-file, output-dir, output format cli options for generate_man
* update main Makefile to use generate_man.py for docs (man pages and rst)
* update vault docs that use :option:
* Edits based on
6e34ea6242 and
a3afc78535
* add a optparse 'desc' to lib/ansible/cli/config.py
The man page needs a short desc for the 'NAME' field
which it gets from the option parse 'desc' value.
Fixes building ansible-config man page.
* add trim_docstring from pep257 to generate_man
use pep258 docstring trim function to fix up any indention
weirdness inherit to doc strings (ie, lines other than
first line being indented.
* Add refs to cli command actions
To reference ansible-vaults --vault-id option, use:
:option:`The link text here <ansible-vault --vault-id>`
or:
:option:`--vault-id <ansible-vault --vault-id>`
To reference ansible-vault's 'encrypt' action, use:
:ref:`The link text here <ansible_vault_encrypt>`
or most of the time:
:ref:`ansible-vault encrypt <ansible_vault_encrypt>`
* cleaner get for file based caches
* now db based facts behave like file ones
we now keep local in mem cache to avoid race conditions on expiration during ansible runs
