major_changes:
- New simpler and more intuitive 'loop' keyword for task loops. The ``with_<lookup>`` loops will likely be deprecated in the near future and eventually removed.
- |
Added fact namespacing; from now on facts will be available under ``ansible_facts`` namespace (for example: ``ansible_facts.os_distribution``)
without the ``ansible_`` prefix. They will continue to be added into the main namespace directly, but now with a configuration toggle to
enable this. This is currently on by default, but in the future it will default to off.
- Added a configuration file that a site administrator can use to specify modules to exclude from being used.
minor_changes:
- |
Added a few new magic vars corresponding to configuration/command
line options: ``ansible_diff_mode``, ``ansible_inventory_sources``,
``ansible_limit``, ``ansible_run_tags`` , ``ansible_forks`` and
``ansible_skip_tags``
- Updated the bundled copy of the six library to 1.11.0
- |
Added support to ``become`` ``NT AUTHORITY\System``,
``NT AUTHORITY\LocalService``, and ``NT AUTHORITY\NetworkService`` on Windows hosts
- Fixed ``become`` to work with async on Windows hosts
- |
Improved ``become`` elevation process to work on standard
Administrator users without disabling UAC on Windows hosts
- |
The jenkins\_plugin and yum\_repository plugins had their ``params``
option removed because they circumvented Ansible's option processing.
- The combine filter now accepts a list of dicts as well as dicts directly
- |
New CLI options for ansible-inventory, ansible-console and ansible to
allow specifying a playbook\_dir to be used for relative search
paths.
- |
`The `stat`` and ``win_stat`` modules have changed the default value of
``get_md5`` to ``False`` which will result in the ``md5`` return
value not being returned. This option will be removed altogether in
Ansible 2.9. Use ``get_checksum: True`` with
``checksum_algorithm: md5`` to return an md5 hash of the file under
the ``checksum`` return value.
- |
The ``osx_say`` module was renamed into ``say``.
- |
Task debugger functionality was moved into ``StrategyBase``, and
extended to allow explicit invocation from use of the ``debugger``
keyword. The ``debug`` strategy is still functional, and is now just
a trigger to enable this functionality.
- |
The documentation has undergone a major overhaul. Content has been moved into
targeted guides; the table of contents has been cleaned up and streamlined;
the CSS theme has been updated to a custom version of the most recent
ReadTheDocs theme, and the underlying directory structure for the RST files
has been reorganized.
- |
The ANSIBLE\_REMOTE\_TMP environment variable has been added to
supplement (and override) ANSIBLE\_REMOTE\_TEMP. This matches with
the spelling of the config value. ANSIBLE\_REMOTE\_TEMP will be
deprecated in the future.
deprecated_features:
- |
Previously deprecated 'hostfile' config settings have been
're-deprecated' because previously code did not warn about deprecated
configuration settings.
- |
Using Ansible-provided Jinja tests as filters is deprecated and will
be removed in Ansible 2.9.
- |
The ``stat`` and ``win_stat`` modules have deprecated ``get_md5`` and the ``md5``
return values. These options will become undocumented in Ansible
2.9 and removed in a later version.
- The ``redis_kv`` lookup has been deprecated in favor of new ``redis`` lookup
- |
Passing arbitrary parameters that begin with ``HEADER_`` to the uri
module, used for passing http headers, is deprecated. Use the
``headers`` parameter with a dictionary of header names to value
instead. This will be removed in Ansible 2.9
- |
Passing arbitrary parameters to the zfs module to set zfs properties
is deprecated. Use the ``extra_zfs_properties`` parameter with a
dictionary of property names to values instead. This will be removed
in Ansible 2.9.
- |
Use of the AnsibleModule parameter ``check\_invalid\_arguments`` in custom modules is deprecated. In the future, all parameters will be
checked to see whether they are listed in the arg spec and an error raised if they are not listed. This behaviour is the current and
future default so most custom modules can simply remove ``check\_invalid\_arguments`` if they set it to the default value of True.
The ``check\_invalid\_arguments`` parameter will be removed in Ansible 2.9.
- The nxos\_ip\_interface module is deprecated in Ansible 2.5. Use nxos\_l3\_interface module instead.
- The nxos\_portchannel module is deprecated in Ansible 2.5. Use nxos\_linkagg module instead.
- The nxos\_switchport module is deprecated in Ansible 2.5. Use nxos\_l2\_interface module instead.
- The ec2\_ami\_find has been deprecated; use ec2\_ami\_facts instead.
- |
panos\_security\_policy: Use panos\_security\_rule - the old module uses deprecated API calls
- vsphere\_guest is deprecated in Ansible 2.5 and will be removed in Ansible-2.9. Use vmware\_guest module instead.
removed_features:
- accelerate.
- |
boundary\_meter: There was no deprecation period for this but the
hosted service it relied on has gone away so the module has been
removed. `#29387 <https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/29387>`__
- |
cl\_ : cl\_interface, cl\_interface\_policy, cl\_bridge,
cl\_img\_install, cl\_ports, cl\_license, cl\_bond. Use ``nclu``
instead
- docker. Use docker\_container and docker\_image instead.
- ec2\_vpc.
- ec2\_ami\_search, use ec2\_ami\_facts instead.
- nxos\_mtu. Use nxos\_system's ``system_mtu`` option instead. To specify an interface's MTU use nxos\_interface.
- |
panos\_nat\_policy: Use panos\_nat\_rule the old module uses deprecated API calls
new_lookup_plugins:
- |
aws\_account\_attribute: Query AWS account attributes such as EC2-Classic availability
- |
aws\_service\_ip\_ranges: Query AWS IP ranges for services such as EC2/S3
- |
aws\_ssm: Query AWS ssm data
- |
config: Lookup Ansible settings
- |
conjur\_variable: Fetch credentials from CyberArk Conjur
- |
k8s: Query the K8s API
- |
nios: Query Infoblox NIOS objects
- |
openshift: Return info from Openshift installation
- |
redis: look up date from Redis DB, deprecates the redis\_kv one.
new_callback_plugins:
- 'null'
- unixy
- yaml
new_connection_plugins:
- kubectl
- oc
- netconf
- |
network\_cli
- The existing network\_cli and netconf connection plugins can now be used directly with network modules. See
`Network Best Practices for Ansible 2.5 <http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/devel/network_best_practices_2.5.html>`_ for more details.
