This change makes it so we know when it is safe to get rid of the module
(when we stop supporting python2.4) and makes it easier for us to find
code that is using the functions in there to update.
If needed, we'll create a pycompat26 and pycompat27 as well. These
files are for functions that are needed on that python version to write
portable code. So python-2.4 compatible modules may need code in
pycompat24, python26+ modules may need code in pycompat26, etc. If
a function is needed in multiple python versions, we should implement it
in an internal common file and use import to put it in the namespace for
each pycompatXY module.
Since the pyrax website say that only python 2.7 is tested,
I do not think it is worth to aim for python 2.4 compatibility
for the various rackspace modules.
Since this is now the default package manager, it got moved
to another location on Netbsd :
netbsd# type pkgin
pkgin is a tracked alias for /usr/pkg/bin/pkgin
netbsd# uname -a
NetBSD netbsd.example.org 6.1.4 NetBSD 6.1.4 (GENERIC) amd64
But since the package manager is also used outside of NetBSD, we
have to keep the /opt/local path too.
Since it depend on libcloud and libcloud requirements include python 2.6
since libcloud 0.4.0 (https://libcloud.apache.org/about.html), which
was released in 2011 Q2, and GCE drivers were added in 2013,
we can't run a libcloud version with GCE support on 2.4.
Since the modules can use a paramiko transport (ergo
python 2.4 syntax), we need to keep compat with 2.4 and python 3,
so we need to use the get_exception trick, even if the various juniper
libraries are not compatible with 2.4.
It currently fail with
ansible/module_utils/facts.py\", line 357, in get_service_mgr_facts\r\nKeyError: 'distribution'\r\n"
Since self.facts['distribution'] is used after, we need to make sure
this is set by default and if needed, corrected somewhere for Linux.
Initialize facts['distribution'] with self.system so that this fact does
not remain uninitialized on systems_platform_working platforms (FreeBSD,
OpenBSD).
Fixes#15841
* Update GCE module to use JSON credentials
* Ensure minimum libcloud version when using JSON crednetials for GCE
* Relax langauge around libcloud requirements
This patch adds the port argument as a valid parameter to the f5_spec.
This argument is supported in bigsuds version 1.0.4 and greater, so
this patch uses the __version__ variable of the bigsuds module to
determine when the port value should be honored by the module.
By default the `Shell` class disables ssh agents. The `junos_netconf`
module uses this class, but doesn't re-enable agents.
Here it's explicitly enabled again, so an ssh agent can be used to
connect to and configure Junos devices.
* better fix for arch version detection
fixes #15696
* be extra safe about tracebacks in facts.py
* add comments to explain the setup
* make allowempty more conservative, ignore file content
* wrap function call in try/except
* should never happen, but if it happens the bug should be distribtion=N/A and not a traceback
* add tests for centos6, rhel6 and rhel7
* gen_distribution_version_testcase with python2.6
* remove unused imports
* fix redhat/vmware/... parsing
* add centos7 test case
* Make ziploader's ansible and ansible.module_utils libraries into
namespace packages.
* Move __version__ and __author__ from ansible/__init__ to
ansible/release.py. This is because namespace packages only load one
__init__.py. If that is not the __init__.py with the author and
version info then those won't be available.
* In ziplaoder, move the version ito ANSIBLE_CONSTANTS.
* Change PluginLoader to properly construct the path to the plugins even
when namespace packages are present.
