* Optimize template
* In fixing template to handle diff correctly #24477, I introduced more
round trips to the remote end which slowed things down The new code now
uses one fewer round trips than the old code.
* Reimplement a large part of template by calling the copy action plugin
instead of doing it in template's code. This reduces the code in
template and gives us one place to fix bugs and optimize.
* Add a follow parameter to template that mirrors the follow parameters
for file and copy.
* Fix copy's diff handling (probably broken in my rewrite for in 2.4
development)
* Adjusted when copy creates tmp dirs to rduce round trips in copy and
template.
Fixes#27956
* Add 'cacheable' param to set_fact action and module.
Used just like set_fact, except facts set with cacheable: true
will be stored in the fact cache if fact caching is enabled.
set_fact normally only sets facts in the non_persistent_fact_cache, so they
are lost between invocations.
* update set_facts docs
* use 'ansible_facts_cacheable' in module/actions result
* pop fact cacheable related items out of args/results
We dont want to use 'ansible_facts_cacheable' result item
or 'cacheable' arg as actual facts, so pop them out of the
dicts.
* Add command_timeout timer that defines the amount
of time to wait for a command or RPC call before
timing out.
* Remove connect_retries and connect_interval configuration
varaible and replace it with connect_retry_timeout to control
the timeout value of connection to local scoket.
* Make required changes to netowrk action plugins and relevant
network files in module_utils.
* Required documentation changes.
Absolute path trailing slash handling in absolute directories
find_needle() isn't passing a trailing slash through verbatim. Since
copy uses that to determine if it should copy a directory or just the
files inside of it, we have to detect that and restore it after calling
find_needle()
Fixes#27439
* add_hosts.py: Fix add_host does not recognise 'host' alias
* add_hosts.py: add note in documentation that 'hosts' alias of name parameter is only available on >=2.4
* We need a directory walker that can handle symlinks, empty directories,
and some other odd needs. This commit contains a directory walker that
can do all that. The walker returns information about the files in the
directories that we can then use to implement different strategies for
copying the files to the remote machines.
* Add local_follow parameter to copy that follows local symlinks (follow
is for remote symlinks)
* Refactor the copying of files out of run into its own method
* Add new integration tests for copy
Fixes#24949Fixes#21513
* Adding ciscowlc_command module and unit tests.
* Adding __init__.py for unit test.
* Fixing PEP8 W503.
* Renaming module from ciscowlc_command to aire_command.
* Renaming aire_command to aireos_command.
* Adding aruba_command module along with unit tests.
* Fixing PEP8 E303 too many blank lines.
* Adding default for timeout.
* Removing unused arguments. Moving default for timeout argument. Fixing cliconf to find hostname.
* Fixing PEP8 E302.
* WIP update asa to use network_cli connection plugin
* add asa.py to cliconf plugins
* update asa.py terminal plugin to support regexp and events
* update constants to map asa modules to asa action handler
* update asa action handler to implement persistent connections
* update asa shared module to use persistent connections
* update asa_command module to use new connection
* fixed pep8 issues
Consolidate the module_utils, constants, and config functions that
convert values into booleans into a single function in module_utils.
Port code to use the module_utils.validate.convert_bool.boolean function
isntead of mk_boolean.
* shorten warning on reservd fact collision
also remove ansible_ from namespaced facts for vars manager
handle str conversion errors
use tuple to avoid iterator errors
version added added
* only modify final one
* removed ansible_ removal
* On python3, stdin goes through a buffer that translates from raw bytes
to text. this interferes with pause as it (1) performs universal
newline conversion and therefore '\r' is turned into '\n' and (2) the
buffering prevents us from getting the typed characters immediately
(possibly a python3 bug?) Using the raw byte stream that's behind the
text decoder fixes these problems.
Unrelated cleanups:
* Use to_text instead of str for conversion into strings to avoid possible tracebacks
* Use either \r or \n as the end of a line.

By default, the vendor neutral modules will just go on if no
implementation module is found.
If user specifies the task argument fail_on_missing_module and
sets it to True, then we bail out the play early and report that
to the user.
* correct, cleanup & simplify dwim stack
latlh chIS logh HeS qar wej chel laD
better errors
update find_file to new exception
* addressed latest comments
* test should not use realpath as it follows symlink
this fails when on OS X as /var is now a symlink to /private/var
but first_found was not supposed to follow symlinks
The user variable stores whether we need to set user@ in our connection
string. It's now being used at the toplevel of the run() method so the
default needs to be calculated further up the stack
Fixes#24910
include_vars will now also return a key 'ansible_included_var_files'
which contains the list of files that were successfully loaded.
This is useful information and, amongst other things, a way for users
to know exactly what files were included when debugging their
playbooks.
This also allows us to improve the integration tests around
include_vars.
* Add net_interface declartive module
* Add net_interface module
* Add junos_interface implementation module
* Other minor changes
* Add integration test
* Integration test for net_interface
* Integration test for junos_interface
* Fix CI failures
* Documentation changes
* Allow template files to be vaulted
* Make sure to import exceptions we need
* get_real_file can't take bytes, since it looks specifically for string_types
* Now that we aren't using open() we don't need b_source
* Expand playbooks_vault docs to include modules that support vaulted src files
* Add vaulted template test
