* add new module network
* move EOS to NetworkModule
* shell.py Python 3.x compatibility
* implements the Command class through the connection for eos
This implements a new Command class that specifies the cli command
and output format. This removes the need to batch commands through
the connection
* initial add of netcmd module
When the PYTHONPATH is an empty string python will treat it as though
the cwd is in the PYTHONPATH. This can be undesirable. So make sure we
delete PYTHONPATH from the environment altgether in this case.
Fixes#16195
The junos network module will now properly use the ssh key file if its
passed from the playbook to authenticate to the remote device. Prior
to this commit, the ssh keyfile was ignored.
* Give a module the possibility to known its own name
This is useful for logging and reporting and fixes the longstanding problem with syslog-messages:
May 30 15:50:11 moria ansible-<stdin>: Invoked with ...
now becomes:
Jun 1 17:32:03 moria ansible-copy: Invoked with ...
This fixes#15830
* Rename the internal name from module.ansible_module_name to module._name
The nxos cli provider would not properly handle ssh key files passed
from the playbook task. The ssh_keyfile argument is now properly
passed to the ssh authentication method
This fix address the bug reported in #3862
Exception was raised when trying to use ssh-agent for authentication to
ios devices. This fix enables ssh-agent and enable use of password
protected ssh keys. There is one additional fix to capture authentication
exceptions nicely.
* Port urls.py to python3
Fixes (largely normalizing byte vs text strings) for python3
* Rework what we do with attributes that aren't set already.
* Comments
This makes it possible to use anything other than a list (e.g., a
tuple, or dict.keys() in py3k) for argument_spec choices. It also
improves the error messages if you don't use a list type.
This class can be used by F5 modules for raising exceptions.
This should be used to handle known errors and raise them so
that they can be printed in the fail_json method.
The common Exception class built-in should not be used because
it hides tracebacks that are necessary to have when debugging
problems with the module.
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.
