Breaking Changes / Porting Guide
--------------------------------
- The collection no longer supports ansible-core 2.13 and ansible-core 2.14. While most (or even all) modules and plugins might still work with these versions, they are no longer tested in CI and breakages regarding them will not be fixed (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8921)."
- cmd_runner module utils - CLI arguments created directly from module parameters are no longer assigned a default formatter (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8928).
- irc - the defaults of ``use_tls`` and ``validate_certs`` changed from ``false`` to ``true`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8918).
- rhsm_repository - the states ``present`` and ``absent`` have been removed. Use ``enabled`` and ``disabled`` instead (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8918).
Deprecated Features
-------------------
- CmdRunner module util - setting the value of the ``ignore_none`` parameter within a ``CmdRunner`` context is deprecated and that feature should be removed in community.general 12.0.0 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8479).

Breaking Changes / Porting Guide
--------------------------------
- collection_version lookup plugin - remove compatibility code for ansible-base 2.10 and ansible-core 2.11 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7269).
- gitlab_project - add ``default_branch`` support for project update. If you used the module so far with ``default_branch`` to update a project, the value of ``default_branch`` was ignored. Make sure that you either do not pass a value if you are not sure whether it is the one you want to have to avoid unexpected breaking changes (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7158).
- selective callback plugin - remove compatibility code for Ansible 2.9 and ansible-core 2.10 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7269).
- vardict module utils - ``VarDict`` will no longer accept variables named ``_var``, ``get_meta``, and ``as_dict`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/6647).
- version module util - remove fallback for ansible-core 2.11. All modules and plugins that do version collections no longer work with ansible-core 2.11 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7269).
Deprecated Features
-------------------
- CmdRunner module utils - deprecate ``cmd_runner_fmt.as_default_type()`` formatter (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/6601).
- MH VarsMixin module utils - deprecates ``VarsMixin`` and supporting classes in favor of plain ``vardict`` module util (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/6649).
- ansible_galaxy_install - the ``ack_ansible29`` and ``ack_min_ansiblecore211`` options have been deprecated and will be removed in community.general 9.0.0 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7358).
- consul - the ``ack_params_state_absent`` option has been deprecated and will be removed in community.general 10.0.0 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7358).
- cpanm - value ``compatibility`` is deprecated as default for parameter ``mode`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/6512).
- ejabberd_user - deprecate the parameter ``logging`` in favour of producing more detailed information in the module output (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7043).
- flowdock - module relies entirely on no longer responsive API endpoints, and it will be removed in community.general 9.0.0 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/6930).
- proxmox - old feature flag ``proxmox_default_behavior`` will be removed in community.general 10.0.0 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/6836).
- proxmox_kvm - deprecate the option ``proxmox_default_behavior`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7377).
- redfish_info, redfish_config, redfish_command - the default value ``10`` for the ``timeout`` option is deprecated and will change to ``60`` in community.general 9.0.0 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7295).
- redhat module utils - the ``module_utils.redhat`` module is deprecated, as
effectively unused: the ``Rhsm``, ``RhsmPool``, and ``RhsmPools`` classes
will be removed in community.general 9.0.0; the ``RegistrationBase`` class
will be removed in community.general 10.0.0 together with the
``rhn_register`` module, as it is the only user of this class; this means
that the whole ``module_utils.redhat`` module will be dropped in
community.general 10.0.0, so importing it without even using anything of it
will fail
(https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/6663).
- redhat_subscription - the ``autosubscribe`` alias for the ``auto_attach`` option has been
deprecated for many years, although only in the documentation. Officially mark this alias
as deprecated, and it will be removed in community.general 9.0.0

- redhat_subscription - the ``pool`` option is deprecated in favour of the
more precise and flexible ``pool_ids`` option
(https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/6650).
- rhsm_repository - ``state=present`` has not been working as expected for many years,
and it seems it was not noticed so far; also, "presence" is not really a valid concept
for subscription repositories, which can only be enabled or disabled. Hence, mark the
``present`` and ``absent`` values of the ``state`` option as deprecated, slating them
for removal in community.general 10.0.0
(https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/6673).

- webfaction_mailbox - module relies entirely on no longer existent API endpoints, and it will be removed in community.general 9.0.0 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/6909).
- webfaction_site - module relies entirely on no longer existent API endpoints, and it will be removed in community.general 9.0.0 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/6909).

- proxmox_kvm - when ``name`` option is provided without ``vmid`` and VM with that name already exists then no new VM will be created (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/6911, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/6981).
- proxmox_tasks_info - remove ``api_user`` + ``api_password`` constraint from ``required_together`` as it causes to require ``api_password`` even when API token param is used (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/6201).
- proxmox_template - require ``requests_toolbelt`` module to fix issue with uploading large templates (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/5579, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/6757).
- proxmox_user_info - avoid direct type comparisons (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7085).
- redfish_info - fix ``ListUsers`` to not show empty account slots (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/6771, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/6772).
- redhat_subscription - use the right D-Bus options for the consumer type when
registering a RHEL system older than 9 or a RHEL 9 system older than 9.2
and using ``consumer_type``
(https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7378).
- refish_utils module utils - changing variable names to avoid issues occuring when fetching Volumes data (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/6883).
- rhsm_repository - when using the ``purge`` option, the ``repositories``
dictionary element in the returned JSON is now properly updated according
to the pruning operation
(https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/6676).
- rundeck - fix ``TypeError`` on 404 API response (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/6983).
- selective callback plugin - fix length of task name lines in output always being 3 characters longer than desired (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7374).
- snap - an exception was being raised when snap list was empty (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7124, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/7120).
- snap - assume default track ``latest`` in parameter ``channel`` when not specified (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/6835, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/6821).
- snap - change the change detection mechanism from "parsing installation" to "comparing end state with initial state" (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7340, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/7265).
- snap - fix crash when multiple snaps are specified and one has ``---`` in its description (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7046).
- snap - fix the processing of the commands' output, stripping spaces and newlines from it (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/6826, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/6803).
- sorcery - fix interruption of the multi-stage process (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7012).
- sorcery - fix queue generation before the whole system rebuild (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7012).
- sorcery - latest state no longer triggers update_cache (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7012).
- terraform - prevents ``-backend-config`` option double encapsulating with ``shlex_quote`` function. (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7301).
- tss lookup plugin - fix multiple issues when using ``fetch_attachments=true`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/6720).
- zypper - added handling of zypper exitcode 102. Changed state is set correctly now and rc 102 is still preserved to be evaluated by the playbook (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/6534).
Known Issues
------------
- jenkins_node - the module is not able to update offline message when node is already offline due to internally using toggleOffline API (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/9084).
- Ansible markup will show up in raw form on ansible-doc text output for ansible-core before 2.15.

#### In Docker
Integration tests on Docker have the following parameters:
- `image_name` (required): The name of the Docker image. To get the list of supported Docker images, run
`ansible-test integration --help` and look for _target docker images_.
- `test_name` (optional): The name of the integration test.
For modules, this equals the short name of the module; for example, `pacman` in case of `community.general.pacman`.
For plugins, the plugin type is added before the plugin's short name, for example `callback_yaml` for the `community.general.yaml` callback.
```.bash
# Test all plugins/modules on fedora40
ansible-test integration -v --docker fedora40
# Run integration tests for the interfaces_files module in a Docker container using the

# Docs helper. Create RST file.
The playbook `playbook.yml` writes a RST file that can be used in
docs/docsite/rst. The usage of this helper is recommended but not
mandatory. You can stop reading here and update the RST file manually
if you don't want to use this helper.
## Run the playbook
If you want to generate the RST file by this helper fit the variables
in the playbook and the template to your needs. Then, run the play
```sh
shell> ansible-playbook playbook.yml
```
## Copy RST to docs/docsite/rst
Copy the RST file to `docs/docsite/rst` and remove it from this
directory.
## Update the checksums
Substitute the variables and run the below commands
```sh
shell> sha1sum {{ target_vars }} > {{ target_sha1 }}
shell> sha1sum {{ file_rst }} > {{ file_sha1 }}
```
## Playbook explained
The playbook includes the variable *tests* from the integration tests
and creates the RST file from the template. The playbook will
terminate if:
* The file with the variable *tests* was changed
* The RST file was changed
This means that this helper is probably not up to date.
### The file with the variable *tests* was changed
This means that somebody updated the integration tests. Review the
changes and update the template if needed. Update the checksum to pass
the integrity test. The playbook message provides you with the
command.
### The RST file was changed
This means that somebody updated the RST file manually. Review the
changes and update the template. Update the checksum to pass the
integrity test. The playbook message provides you with the
command. Make sure that the updated template will create identical RST
file. Only then apply your changes.

Merging lists of dictionaries
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
If you have two or more lists of dictionaries and want to combine them into a list of merged dictionaries, where the dictionaries are merged by an attribute, you can use the :ansplugin:`community.general.lists_mergeby <community.general.lists_mergeby#filter>` filter.
If you have two or more lists of dictionaries and want to combine them into a list of merged dictionaries, where the dictionaries are merged by an attribute, you can use the ``lists_mergeby`` filter.
.. note:: The output of the examples in this section use the YAML callback plugin. Quoting: "Ansible output that can be quite a bit easier to read than the default JSON formatting." See the documentation for the :ansplugin:`community.general.yaml callback plugin <community.general.yaml#callback>`.

The filter also accepts two optional parameters: :ansopt:`community.general.lists_mergeby#filter:recursive` and :ansopt:`community.general.lists_mergeby#filter:list_merge`. This is available since community.general 4.4.0.
The filter also accepts two optional parameters: ``recursive`` and ``list_merge``. These parameters are only supported when used with ansible-base 2.10 or ansible-core, but not with Ansible 2.9. This is available since community.general 4.4.0.
**recursive**
Is a boolean, default to ``false``. Should the :ansplugin:`community.general.lists_mergeby#filter` filter recursively merge nested hashes. Note: It does not depend on the value of the ``hash_behaviour`` setting in ``ansible.cfg``.

# Docs helper. Create RST file.
The playbook `playbook.yml` writes a RST file that can be used in
docs/docsite/rst. The usage of this helper is recommended but not
mandatory. You can stop reading here and update the RST file manually
if you don't want to use this helper.
## Run the playbook
If you want to generate the RST file by this helper fit the variables
in the playbook and the template to your needs. Then, run the play
```sh
shell> ansible-playbook playbook.yml
```
## Copy RST to docs/docsite/rst
Copy the RST file to `docs/docsite/rst` and remove it from this
directory.
## Update the checksums
Substitute the variables and run the below commands
```sh
shell> sha1sum {{ target_vars }} > {{ target_sha1 }}
shell> sha1sum {{ file_rst }} > {{ file_sha1 }}
```
## Playbook explained
The playbook includes the variable *tests* from the integration tests
and creates the RST file from the template. The playbook will
terminate if:
* The file with the variable *tests* was changed
* The RST file was changed
This means that this helper is probably not up to date.
### The file with the variable *tests* was changed
This means that somebody updated the integration tests. Review the
changes and update the template if needed. Update the checksum to pass
the integrity test. The playbook message provides you with the
command.
### The RST file was changed
This means that somebody updated the RST file manually. Review the
changes and update the template. Update the checksum to pass the
integrity test. The playbook message provides you with the
command. Make sure that the updated template will create identical RST
file. Only then apply your changes.

# Docs helper. Create RST file.
The playbook `playbook.yml` writes a RST file that can be used in
docs/docsite/rst. The usage of this helper is recommended but not
mandatory. You can stop reading here and update the RST file manually
if you don't want to use this helper.
## Run the playbook
If you want to generate the RST file by this helper fit the variables
in the playbook and the template to your needs. Then, run the play
```sh
shell> ansible-playbook playbook.yml
```
## Copy RST to docs/docsite/rst
Copy the RST file to `docs/docsite/rst` and remove it from this
directory.
## Update the checksums
Substitute the variables and run the below commands
```sh
shell> sha1sum {{ target_vars }} > {{ target_sha1 }}
shell> sha1sum {{ file_rst }} > {{ file_sha1 }}
```
## Playbook explained
The playbook includes the variable *tests* from the integration tests
and creates the RST file from the template. The playbook will
terminate if:
* The file with the variable *tests* was changed
* The RST file was changed
This means that this helper is probably not up to date.
### The file with the variable *tests* was changed
This means that somebody updated the integration tests. Review the
changes and update the template if needed. Update the checksum to pass
the integrity test. The playbook message provides you with the
command.
### The RST file was changed
This means that somebody updated the RST file manually. Review the
changes and update the template. Update the checksum to pass the
integrity test. The playbook message provides you with the
command. Make sure that the updated template will create identical RST
file. Only then apply your changes.

Union, intersection and difference of lists
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Starting with Ansible Core 2.16, the builtin filters :ansplugin:`ansible.builtin.union#filter`, :ansplugin:`ansible.builtin.intersect#filter`, :ansplugin:`ansible.builtin.difference#filter` and :ansplugin:`ansible.builtin.symmetric_difference#filter` began to behave differently and do no longer preserve the item order. Items in the resulting lists are returned in arbitrary order and the order can vary between subsequent runs.
The Ansible community.general collection provides the following additional list filters:
- :ansplugin:`community.general.lists_union#filter`
- :ansplugin:`community.general.lists_intersect#filter`
- :ansplugin:`community.general.lists_difference#filter`
- :ansplugin:`community.general.lists_symmetric_difference#filter`
These filters preserve the item order, eliminate duplicates and are an extended version of the builtin ones, because they can operate on more than two lists.
.. note:: Stick to the builtin filters, when item order is not important or when you do not need the n-ary operating mode. The builtin filters are faster, because they rely mostly on sets as their underlying datastructure.
Let us use the lists below in the following examples:
.. code-block:: yaml
A: [9, 5, 7, 1, 9, 4, 10, 5, 9, 7]
B: [4, 1, 2, 8, 3, 1, 7]
C: [10, 2, 1, 9, 1]
The union of ``A`` and ``B`` can be written as:
.. code-block:: yaml+jinja
result: "{{ A | community.general.lists_union(B) }}"
This statement produces:
.. code-block:: yaml
result: [9, 5, 7, 1, 4, 10, 2, 8, 3]
If you want to calculate the intersection of ``A``, ``B`` and ``C``, you can use the following statement:
.. code-block:: yaml+jinja
result: "{{ A | community.general.lists_intersect(B, C) }}"
Alternatively, you can use a list of lists as an input of the filter
.. code-block:: yaml+jinja
result: "{{ [A, B] | community.general.lists_intersect(C) }}"
or
.. code-block:: yaml+jinja
result: "{{ [A, B, C] | community.general.lists_intersect(flatten=true) }}"
All three statements are equivalent and give:
.. code-block:: yaml
result: [1]
.. note:: Be aware that in most cases, filter calls without any argument require ``flatten=true``, otherwise the input is returned as result. The reason for this is, that the input is considered as a variable argument and is wrapped by an additional outer list. ``flatten=true`` ensures that this list is removed before the input is processed by the filter logic.
The filters ansplugin:`community.general.lists_difference#filter` or :ansplugin:`community.general.lists_symmetric_difference#filter` can be used in the same way as the filters in the examples above. They calculate the difference or the symmetric difference between two or more lists and preserve the item order.
For example, the symmetric difference of ``A``, ``B`` and ``C`` may be written as:
.. code-block:: yaml+jinja
result: "{{ A | community.general.lists_symmetric_difference(B, C) }}"
This gives:
.. code-block:: yaml
result: [5, 8, 3, 1]

Alibaba Cloud Compute Services Guide
====================================
Introduction
````````````
The community.general collection contains several modules for controlling and managing Alibaba Cloud Compute Services (Alicloud). This guide
explains how to use the Alicloud Ansible modules together.
All Alicloud modules require ``footmark`` - install it on your control machine with ``pip install footmark``.
Cloud modules, including Alicloud modules, are usually executed on your local machine (the control machine) with ``connection: local``, rather than on remote machines defined in your hosts.
Normally, you'll use the following pattern for plays that provision Alicloud resources:
.. code-block:: yaml
- hosts: localhost
connection: local
vars:
- ...
tasks:
- ...
Authentication
``````````````
You can specify your Alicloud authentication credentials (access key and secret key) by passing them as
environment variables or by storing them in a vars file.
To pass authentication credentials as environment variables:
.. code-block:: console
export ALICLOUD_ACCESS_KEY='Alicloud123'
export ALICLOUD_SECRET_KEY='AlicloudSecret123'
To store authentication credentials in a vars file, encrypt them with :ref:`Ansible Vault <vault>` to keep them secure, then list them:
.. code-block:: yaml
---
alicloud_access_key: "--REMOVED--"
alicloud_secret_key: "--REMOVED--"
Note that if you store your credentials in a vars file, you need to refer to them in each Alicloud module. For example:
.. code-block:: yaml+jinja
- community.general.ali_instance:
alicloud_access_key: "{{ alicloud_access_key }}"
alicloud_secret_key: "{{ alicloud_secret_key }}"
image_id: "..."
Provisioning
````````````
Alicloud modules create Alicloud ECS instances (:ansplugin:`community.general.ali_instance#module`) and retrieve information on these (:ansplugin:`community.general.ali_instance_info#module`).
You can use the ``count`` parameter to control the number of resources you create or terminate. For example, if you want exactly 5 instances tagged ``NewECS``, set the ``count`` of instances to 5 and the ``count_tag`` to ``NewECS``, as shown in the last task of the example playbook below. If there are no instances with the tag ``NewECS``, the task creates 5 new instances. If there are 2 instances with that tag, the task creates 3 more. If there are 8 instances with that tag, the task terminates 3 of those instances.
If you do not specify a ``count_tag``, the task creates the number of instances you specify in ``count`` with the ``instance_name`` you provide.
.. code-block:: yaml+jinja
# alicloud_setup.yml
- hosts: localhost
connection: local
tasks:
- name: Create a set of instances
community.general.ali_instance:
instance_type: ecs.n4.small
image_id: "{{ ami_id }}"
instance_name: "My-new-instance"
instance_tags:
Name: NewECS
Version: 0.0.1
count: 5
count_tag:
Name: NewECS
allocate_public_ip: true
max_bandwidth_out: 50
register: create_instance
In the example playbook above, data about the instances created by this playbook is saved in the variable defined by the ``register`` keyword in the task.
Each Alicloud module offers a variety of parameter options. Not all options are demonstrated in the above example. See each individual module for further details and examples.

Command Runner guide
====================
Introduction
^^^^^^^^^^^^
The ``ansible_collections.community.general.plugins.module_utils.cmd_runner`` module util provides the
``CmdRunner`` class to help execute external commands. The class is a wrapper around
the standard ``AnsibleModule.run_command()`` method, handling command arguments, localization setting,
output processing output, check mode, and other features.
It is even more useful when one command is used in multiple modules, so that you can define all options
in a module util file, and each module uses the same runner with different arguments.
For the sake of clarity, throughout this guide, unless otherwise specified, we use the term *option* when referring to
Ansible module options, and the term *argument* when referring to the command line arguments for the external command.
Quickstart
""""""""""
``CmdRunner`` defines a command and a set of coded instructions on how to format
the command-line arguments, in which specific order, for a particular execution.
It relies on ``ansible.module_utils.basic.AnsibleModule.run_command()`` to actually execute the command.
There are other features, see more details throughout this document.
To use ``CmdRunner`` you must start by creating an object. The example below is a simplified
version of the actual code in :ansplugin:`community.general.ansible_galaxy_install#module`:
.. code-block:: python
from ansible_collections.community.general.plugins.module_utils.cmd_runner import CmdRunner, cmd_runner_fmt
runner = CmdRunner(
module,
command="ansible-galaxy",
arg_formats=dict(
type=cmd_runner_fmt.as_func(lambda v: [] if v == 'both' else [v]),
galaxy_cmd=cmd_runner_fmt.as_list(),
upgrade=cmd_runner_fmt.as_bool("--upgrade"),
requirements_file=cmd_runner_fmt.as_opt_val('-r'),
dest=cmd_runner_fmt.as_opt_val('-p'),
force=cmd_runner_fmt.as_bool("--force"),
no_deps=cmd_runner_fmt.as_bool("--no-deps"),
version=cmd_runner_fmt.as_fixed("--version"),
name=cmd_runner_fmt.as_list(),
)
)
This is meant to be done once, then every time you need to execute the command you create a context and pass values as needed:
.. code-block:: python
# Run the command with these arguments, when values exist for them
with runner("type galaxy_cmd upgrade force no_deps dest requirements_file name", output_process=process) as ctx:
ctx.run(galaxy_cmd="install", upgrade=upgrade)
# version is fixed, requires no value
with runner("version") as ctx:
dummy, stdout, dummy = ctx.run()
# passes arg 'data' to AnsibleModule.run_command()
with runner("type name", data=stdin_data) as ctx:
dummy, stdout, dummy = ctx.run()
# Another way of expressing it
dummy, stdout, dummy = runner("version").run()
Note that you can pass values for the arguments when calling ``run()``, otherwise ``CmdRunner``
uses the module options with the exact same names to provide values for the runner arguments.
If no value is passed and no module option is found for the name specified, then an exception is raised, unless
the argument is using ``cmd_runner_fmt.as_fixed`` as format function like the ``version`` in the example above.
See more about it below.
In the first example, values of ``type``, ``force``, ``no_deps`` and others
are taken straight from the module, whilst ``galaxy_cmd`` and ``upgrade`` are
passed explicitly.
.. note::
It is not possible to automatically retrieve values of suboptions.
That generates a resulting command line similar to (example taken from the
output of an integration test):
.. code-block:: python
[
"<venv>/bin/ansible-galaxy",
"collection",
"install",
"--upgrade",
"-p",
"<collection-install-path>",
"netbox.netbox",
]
Argument formats
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
As seen in the example, ``CmdRunner`` expects a parameter named ``arg_formats``
defining how to format each CLI named argument.
An "argument format" is nothing but a function to transform the value of a variable
into something formatted for the command line.
Argument format function
""""""""""""""""""""""""
An ``arg_format`` function is defined in the form similar to:
.. code-block:: python
def func(value):
return ["--some-param-name", value]
The parameter ``value`` can be of any type - although there are convenience
mechanisms to help handling sequence and mapping objects.
The result is expected to be of the type ``Sequence[str]`` type (most commonly
``list[str]`` or ``tuple[str]``), otherwise it is considered to be a ``str``,
and it is coerced into ``list[str]``.
This resulting sequence of strings is added to the command line when that
argument is actually used.
For example, if ``func`` returns:
- ``["nee", 2, "shruberries"]``, the command line adds arguments ``"nee" "2" "shruberries"``.
- ``2 == 2``, the command line adds argument ``True``.
- ``None``, the command line adds argument ``None``.
- ``[]``, the command line adds no command line argument for that particular argument.
Convenience format methods
""""""""""""""""""""""""""
In the same module as ``CmdRunner`` there is a class ``cmd_runner_fmt`` which
provides a set of convenience methods that return format functions for common cases.
In the first block of code in the `Quickstart`_ section you can see the importing of
that class:
.. code-block:: python
from ansible_collections.community.general.plugins.module_utils.cmd_runner import CmdRunner, cmd_runner_fmt
The same example shows how to make use of some of them in the instantiation of the ``CmdRunner`` object.
A description of each one of the convenience methods available and examples of how to use them is found below.
In these descriptions ``value`` refers to the single parameter passed to the formatting function.
- ``cmd_runner_fmt.as_list()``
This method does not receive any parameter, function returns ``value`` as-is.
- Creation:
``cmd_runner_fmt.as_list()``
- Examples:
+----------------------+---------------------+
| Value | Outcome |
+======================+=====================+
| ``["foo", "bar"]`` | ``["foo", "bar"]`` |
+----------------------+---------------------+
| ``"foobar"`` | ``["foobar"]`` |
+----------------------+---------------------+
- ``cmd_runner_fmt.as_bool()``
This method receives two different parameters: ``args_true`` and ``args_false``, latter being optional.
If the boolean evaluation of ``value`` is ``True``, the format function returns ``args_true``.
If the boolean evaluation is ``False``, then the function returns ``args_false`` if it was provided, or ``[]`` otherwise.
- Creation (one arg):
``cmd_runner_fmt.as_bool("--force")``
- Examples:
+------------+--------------------+
| Value | Outcome |
+============+====================+
| ``True`` | ``["--force"]`` |
+------------+--------------------+
| ``False`` | ``[]`` |
+------------+--------------------+
- Creation (two args, ``None`` treated as ``False``):
``cmd_runner_fmt.as_bool("--relax", "--dont-do-it")``
- Examples:
+------------+----------------------+
| Value | Outcome |
+============+======================+
| ``True`` | ``["--relax"]`` |
+------------+----------------------+
| ``False`` | ``["--dont-do-it"]`` |
+------------+----------------------+
| | ``["--dont-do-it"]`` |
+------------+----------------------+
- Creation (two args, ``None`` is ignored):
``cmd_runner_fmt.as_bool("--relax", "--dont-do-it", ignore_none=True)``
- Examples:
+------------+----------------------+
| Value | Outcome |
+============+======================+
| ``True`` | ``["--relax"]`` |
+------------+----------------------+
| ``False`` | ``["--dont-do-it"]`` |
+------------+----------------------+
| | ``[]`` |
+------------+----------------------+
- ``cmd_runner_fmt.as_bool_not()``
This method receives one parameter, which is returned by the function when the boolean evaluation
of ``value`` is ``False``.
- Creation:
``cmd_runner_fmt.as_bool_not("--no-deps")``
- Examples:
+-------------+---------------------+
| Value | Outcome |
+=============+=====================+
| ``True`` | ``[]`` |
+-------------+---------------------+
| ``False`` | ``["--no-deps"]`` |
+-------------+---------------------+
- ``cmd_runner_fmt.as_optval()``
This method receives one parameter ``arg``, the function returns the string concatenation
of ``arg`` and ``value``.
- Creation:
``cmd_runner_fmt.as_optval("-i")``
- Examples:
+---------------+---------------------+
| Value | Outcome |
+===============+=====================+
| ``3`` | ``["-i3"]`` |
+---------------+---------------------+
| ``foobar`` | ``["-ifoobar"]`` |
+---------------+---------------------+
- ``cmd_runner_fmt.as_opt_val()``
This method receives one parameter ``arg``, the function returns ``[arg, value]``.
- Creation:
``cmd_runner_fmt.as_opt_val("--name")``
- Examples:
+--------------+--------------------------+
| Value | Outcome |
+==============+==========================+
| ``abc`` | ``["--name", "abc"]`` |
+--------------+--------------------------+
- ``cmd_runner_fmt.as_opt_eq_val()``
This method receives one parameter ``arg``, the function returns the string of the form
``{arg}={value}``.
- Creation:
``cmd_runner_fmt.as_opt_eq_val("--num-cpus")``
- Examples:
+------------+-------------------------+
| Value | Outcome |
+============+=========================+
| ``10`` | ``["--num-cpus=10"]`` |
+------------+-------------------------+
- ``cmd_runner_fmt.as_fixed()``
This method receives one parameter ``arg``, the function expects no ``value`` - if one
is provided then it is ignored.
The function returns ``arg`` as-is.
- Creation:
``cmd_runner_fmt.as_fixed("--version")``
- Examples:
+---------+-----------------------+
| Value | Outcome |
+=========+=======================+
| | ``["--version"]`` |
+---------+-----------------------+
| 57 | ``["--version"]`` |
+---------+-----------------------+
- Note:
This is the only special case in which a value can be missing for the formatting function.
The example also comes from the code in `Quickstart`_.
In that case, the module has code to determine the command's version so that it can assert compatibility.
There is no *value* to be passed for that CLI argument.
- ``cmd_runner_fmt.as_map()``
This method receives one parameter ``arg`` which must be a dictionary, and an optional parameter ``default``.
The function returns the evaluation of ``arg[value]``.
If ``value not in arg``, then it returns ``default`` if defined, otherwise ``[]``.
- Creation:
``cmd_runner_fmt.as_map(dict(a=1, b=2, c=3), default=42)``
- Examples:
+---------------------+---------------+
| Value | Outcome |
+=====================+===============+
| ``"b"`` | ``["2"]`` |
+---------------------+---------------+
| ``"yabadabadoo"`` | ``["42"]`` |
+---------------------+---------------+
- Note:
If ``default`` is not specified, invalid values return an empty list, meaning they are silently ignored.
- ``cmd_runner_fmt.as_func()``
This method receives one parameter ``arg`` which is itself is a format function and it must abide by the rules described above.
- Creation:
``cmd_runner_fmt.as_func(lambda v: [] if v == 'stable' else ['--channel', '{0}'.format(v)])``
- Note:
The outcome for that depends entirely on the function provided by the developer.
Other features for argument formatting
""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
Some additional features are available as decorators:
- ``cmd_runner_fmt.unpack args()``
This decorator unpacks the incoming ``value`` as a list of elements.
For example, in ``ansible_collections.community.general.plugins.module_utils.puppet``, it is used as:
.. code-block:: python
@cmd_runner_fmt.unpack_args
def execute_func(execute, manifest):
if execute:
return ["--execute", execute]
else:
return [manifest]
runner = CmdRunner(
module,
command=_prepare_base_cmd(),
path_prefix=_PUPPET_PATH_PREFIX,
arg_formats=dict(
# ...
_execute=cmd_runner_fmt.as_func(execute_func),
# ...
),
)
Then, in :ansplugin:`community.general.puppet#module` it is put to use with:
.. code-block:: python
with runner(args_order) as ctx:
rc, stdout, stderr = ctx.run(_execute=[p['execute'], p['manifest']])
- ``cmd_runner_fmt.unpack_kwargs()``
Conversely, this decorator unpacks the incoming ``value`` as a ``dict``-like object.
- ``cmd_runner_fmt.stack()``
This decorator assumes ``value`` is a sequence and concatenates the output
of the wrapped function applied to each element of the sequence.
For example, in :ansplugin:`community.general.django_check#module`, the argument format for ``database``
is defined as:
.. code-block:: python
arg_formats = dict(
# ...
database=cmd_runner_fmt.stack(cmd_runner_fmt.as_opt_val)("--database"),
# ...
)
When receiving a list ``["abc", "def"]``, the output is:
.. code-block:: python
["--database", "abc", "--database", "def"]
Command Runner
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Settings that can be passed to the ``CmdRunner`` constructor are:
- ``module: AnsibleModule``
Module instance. Mandatory parameter.
- ``command: str | list[str]``
Command to be executed. It can be a single string, the executable name, or a list
of strings containing the executable name as the first element and, optionally, fixed parameters.
Those parameters are used in all executions of the runner.
The *executable* pointed by this parameter (whether itself when ``str`` or its first element when ``list``) is
processed using ``AnsibleModule.get_bin_path()`` *unless* it is an absolute path or contains the character ``/``.
- ``arg_formats: dict``
Mapping of argument names to formatting functions.
- ``default_args_order: str``
As the name suggests, a default ordering for the arguments. When
this is passed, the context can be created without specifying ``args_order``. Defaults to ``()``.
- ``check_rc: bool``
When ``True``, if the return code from the command is not zero, the module exits
with an error. Defaults to ``False``.
- ``path_prefix: list[str]``
If the command being executed is installed in a non-standard directory path,
additional paths might be provided to search for the executable. Defaults to ``None``.
- ``environ_update: dict``
Pass additional environment variables to be set during the command execution.
Defaults to ``None``.
- ``force_lang: str``
It is usually important to force the locale to one specific value, so that responses are consistent and, therefore, parseable.
Please note that using this option (which is enabled by default) overwrites the environment variables ``LANGUAGE`` and ``LC_ALL``.
To disable this mechanism, set this parameter to ``None``.
In community.general 9.1.0 a special value ``auto`` was introduced for this parameter, with the effect
that ``CmdRunner`` then tries to determine the best parseable locale for the runtime.
It should become the default value in the future, but for the time being the default value is ``C``.
When creating a context, the additional settings that can be passed to the call are:
- ``args_order: str``
Establishes the order in which the arguments are rendered in the command line.
This parameter is mandatory unless ``default_args_order`` was provided to the runner instance.
- ``output_process: func``
Function to transform the output of the executable into different values or formats.
See examples in section below.
- ``check_mode_skip: bool``
Whether to skip the actual execution of the command when the module is in check mode.
Defaults to ``False``.
- ``check_mode_return: any``
If ``check_mode_skip=True``, then return this value instead.
- valid named arguments to ``AnsibleModule.run_command()``
Other than ``args``, any valid argument to ``run_command()`` can be passed when setting up the run context.
For example, ``data`` can be used to send information to the command's standard input.
Or ``cwd`` can be used to run the command inside a specific working directory.
Additionally, any other valid parameters for ``AnsibleModule.run_command()`` may be passed, but unexpected behavior
might occur if redefining options already present in the runner or its context creation. Use with caution.
Processing results
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
As mentioned, ``CmdRunner`` uses ``AnsibleModule.run_command()`` to execute the external command,
and it passes the return value from that method back to caller. That means that,
by default, the result is going to be a tuple ``(rc, stdout, stderr)``.
If you need to transform or process that output, you can pass a function to the context,
as the ``output_process`` parameter. It must be a function like:
.. code-block:: python
def process(rc, stdout, stderr):
# do some magic
return processed_value # whatever that is
In that case, the return of ``run()`` is the ``processed_value`` returned by the function.
PythonRunner
^^^^^^^^^^^^
The ``PythonRunner`` class is a specialized version of ``CmdRunner``, geared towards the execution of
Python scripts. It features two extra and mutually exclusive parameters ``python`` and ``venv`` in its constructor:
.. code-block:: python
from ansible_collections.community.general.plugins.module_utils.python_runner import PythonRunner
from ansible_collections.community.general.plugins.module_utils.cmd_runner import cmd_runner_fmt
runner = PythonRunner(
module,
command=["-m", "django"],
arg_formats=dict(...),
python="python",
venv="/path/to/some/venv",
)
The default value for ``python`` is the string ``python``, and the for ``venv`` it is ``None``.
The command line produced by such a command with ``python="python3.12"`` is something like:
.. code-block:: shell
/usr/bin/python3.12 -m django <arg1> <arg2> ...
And the command line for ``venv="/work/venv"`` is like:
.. code-block:: shell
/work/venv/bin/python -m django <arg1> <arg2> ...
You may provide the value of the ``command`` argument as a string (in that case the string is used as a script name)
or as a list, in which case the elements of the list must be valid arguments for the Python interpreter, as in the example above.
See `Command line and environment <https://docs.python.org/3/using/cmdline.html>`_ for more details.
If the parameter ``python`` is an absolute path, or contains directory separators, such as ``/``, then it is used
as-is, otherwise the runtime ``PATH`` is searched for that command name.
Other than that, everything else works as in ``CmdRunner``.

``deps`` Guide
==============
Using ``deps``
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The ``ansible_collections.community.general.plugins.module_utils.deps`` module util simplifies
the importing of code as described in :ref:`Importing and using shared code <shared_code>`.
Please notice that ``deps`` is meant to be used specifically with Ansible modules, and not other types of plugins.
The same example from the Developer Guide would become:
.. code-block:: python
from ansible_collections.community.general.plugins.module_utils import deps
with deps.declare("foo"):
import foo
Then in ``main()``, just after the argspec (or anywhere in the code, for that matter), do
.. code-block:: python
deps.validate(module) # assuming module is a valid AnsibleModule instance
By default, ``deps`` will rely on ``ansible.module_utils.basic.missing_required_lib`` to generate
a message about a failing import. That function accepts parameters ``reason`` and ``url``, and
and so does ``deps```:
.. code-block:: python
with deps.declare("foo", reason="foo is needed to properly bar", url="https://foo.bar.io"):
import foo
If you would rather write a custom message instead of using ``missing_required_lib`` then do:
.. code-block:: python
with deps.declare("foo", msg="Custom msg explaining why foo is needed"):
import foo
``deps`` allows for multiple dependencies to be declared:
.. code-block:: python
with deps.declare("foo"):
import foo
with deps.declare("bar"):
import bar
with deps.declare("doe"):
import doe
By default, ``deps.validate()`` will check on all the declared dependencies, but if so desired,
they can be validated selectively by doing:
.. code-block:: python
deps.validate(module, "foo") # only validates the "foo" dependency
deps.validate(module, "doe:bar") # only validates the "doe" and "bar" dependencies
deps.validate(module, "-doe:bar") # validates all dependencies except "doe" and "bar"

Module Helper guide
===================
Introduction
^^^^^^^^^^^^
Writing a module for Ansible is largely described in existing documentation.
However, a good part of that is boilerplate code that needs to be repeated every single time.
That is where ``ModuleHelper`` comes to assistance: a lot of that boilerplate code is done.
.. _ansible_collections.community.general.docsite.guide_modulehelper.quickstart:
Quickstart
""""""""""
See the `example from Ansible documentation <https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/dev_guide/developing_modules_general.html#creating-a-module>`_
written with ``ModuleHelper``.
But bear in mind that it does not showcase all of MH's features:
.. code-block:: python
from ansible_collections.community.general.plugins.module_utils.module_helper import ModuleHelper
class MyTest(ModuleHelper):
module = dict(
argument_spec=dict(
name=dict(type='str', required=True),
new=dict(type='bool', required=False, default=False),
),
supports_check_mode=True,
)
use_old_vardict = False
def __run__(self):
self.vars.original_message = ''
self.vars.message = ''
if self.check_mode:
return
self.vars.original_message = self.vars.name
self.vars.message = 'goodbye'
self.changed = self.vars['new']
if self.vars.name == "fail me":
self.do_raise("You requested this to fail")
def main():
MyTest.execute()
if __name__ == '__main__':
main()
Module Helper
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Introduction
""""""""""""
``ModuleHelper`` is a wrapper around the standard ``AnsibleModule``, providing extra features and conveniences.
The basic structure of a module using ``ModuleHelper`` is as shown in the
:ref:`ansible_collections.community.general.docsite.guide_modulehelper.quickstart`
section above, but there are more elements that will take part in it.
.. code-block:: python
from ansible_collections.community.general.plugins.module_utils.module_helper import ModuleHelper
class MyTest(ModuleHelper):
output_params = ()
change_params = ()
diff_params = ()
facts_name = None
facts_params = ()
use_old_vardict = True
mute_vardict_deprecation = False
module = dict(
argument_spec=dict(...),
# ...
)
After importing the ``ModuleHelper`` class, you need to declare your own class extending it.
.. seealso::
There is a variation called ``StateModuleHelper``, which builds on top of the features provided by MH.
See :ref:`ansible_collections.community.general.docsite.guide_modulehelper.statemh` below for more details.
The easiest way of specifying the module is to create the class variable ``module`` with a dictionary
containing the exact arguments that would be passed as parameters to ``AnsibleModule``.
If you prefer to create the ``AnsibleModule`` object yourself, just assign it to the ``module`` class variable.
MH also accepts a parameter ``module`` in its constructor, if that parameter is used used,
then it will override the class variable. The parameter can either be ``dict`` or ``AnsibleModule`` as well.
Beyond the definition of the module, there are other variables that can be used to control aspects
of MH's behavior. These variables should be set at the very beginning of the class, and their semantics are
explained through this document.
The main logic of MH happens in the ``ModuleHelper.run()`` method, which looks like:
.. code-block:: python
@module_fails_on_exception
def run(self):
self.__init_module__()
self.__run__()
self.__quit_module__()
output = self.output
if 'failed' not in output:
output['failed'] = False
self.module.exit_json(changed=self.has_changed(), **output)
The method ``ModuleHelper.__run__()`` must be implemented by the module and most
modules will be able to perform their actions implementing only that MH method.
However, in some cases, you might want to execute actions before or after the main tasks, in which cases
you should implement ``ModuleHelper.__init_module__()`` and ``ModuleHelper.__quit_module__()`` respectively.
Note that the output comes from ``self.output``, which is a ``@property`` method.
By default, that property will collect all the variables that are marked for output and return them in a dictionary with their values.
Moreover, the default ``self.output`` will also handle Ansible ``facts`` and *diff mode*.
Also note the changed status comes from ``self.has_changed()``, which is usually calculated from variables that are marked
to track changes in their content.
.. seealso::
More details in sections
:ref:`ansible_collections.community.general.docsite.guide_modulehelper.paramvaroutput` and
:ref:`ansible_collections.community.general.docsite.guide_modulehelper.changes` below.
.. seealso::
See more about the decorator
:ref:`ansible_collections.community.general.docsite.guide_modulehelper.modulefailsdeco` below.
Another way to write the example from the
:ref:`ansible_collections.community.general.docsite.guide_modulehelper.quickstart`
would be:
.. code-block:: python
def __init_module__(self):
self.vars.original_message = ''
self.vars.message = ''
def __run__(self):
if self.check_mode:
return
self.vars.original_message = self.vars.name
self.vars.message = 'goodbye'
self.changed = self.vars['new']
def __quit_module__(self):
if self.vars.name == "fail me":
self.do_raise("You requested this to fail")
Notice that there are no calls to ``module.exit_json()`` nor ``module.fail_json()``: if the module fails, raise an exception.
You can use the convenience method ``self.do_raise()`` or raise the exception as usual in Python to do that.
If no exception is raised, then the module succeeds.
.. seealso::
See more about exceptions in section
:ref:`ansible_collections.community.general.docsite.guide_modulehelper.exceptions` below.
Ansible modules must have a ``main()`` function and the usual test for ``'__main__'``. When using MH that should look like:
.. code-block:: python
def main():
MyTest.execute()
if __name__ == '__main__':
main()
The class method ``execute()`` is nothing more than a convenience shorcut for:
.. code-block:: python
m = MyTest()
m.run()
Optionally, an ``AnsibleModule`` may be passed as parameter to ``execute()``.
.. _ansible_collections.community.general.docsite.guide_modulehelper.paramvaroutput:
Parameters, variables, and output
"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
All the parameters automatically become variables in the ``self.vars`` attribute, which is of the ``VarDict`` type.
By using ``self.vars``, you get a central mechanism to access the parameters but also to expose variables as return values of the module.
As described in :ref:`ansible_collections.community.general.docsite.guide_vardict`, variables in ``VarDict`` have metadata associated to them.
One of the attributes in that metadata marks the variable for output, and MH makes use of that to generate the module's return values.
.. important::
The ``VarDict`` feature described was introduced in community.general 7.1.0, but there was a first
implementation of it embedded within ``ModuleHelper``.
That older implementation is now deprecated and will be removed in community.general 11.0.0.
After community.general 7.1.0, MH modules generate a deprecation message about *using the old VarDict*.
There are two ways to prevent that from happening:
#. Set ``mute_vardict_deprecation = True`` and the deprecation will be silenced. If the module still uses the old ``VarDict``,
it will not be able to update to community.general 11.0.0 (Spring 2026) upon its release.
#. Set ``use_old_vardict = False`` to make the MH module use the new ``VarDict`` immediatelly.
The new ``VarDict`` and its use is documented and this is the recommended way to handle this.
.. code-block:: python
class MyTest(ModuleHelper):
use_old_vardict = False
mute_vardict_deprecation = True
...
These two settings are mutually exclusive, but that is not enforced and the behavior when setting both is not specified.
Contrary to new variables created in ``VarDict``, module parameters are not set for output by default.
If you want to include some module parameters in the output, list them in the ``output_params`` class variable.
.. code-block:: python
class MyTest(ModuleHelper):
output_params = ('state', 'name')
...
Another neat feature provided by MH by using ``VarDict`` is the automatic tracking of changes when setting the metadata ``change=True``.
Again, to enable this feature for module parameters, you must list them in the ``change_params`` class variable.
.. code-block:: python
class MyTest(ModuleHelper):
# example from community.general.xfconf
change_params = ('value', )
...
.. seealso::
See more about this in
:ref:`ansible_collections.community.general.docsite.guide_modulehelper.changes` below.
Similarly, if you want to use Ansible's diff mode, you can set the metadata ``diff=True`` and ``diff_params`` for module parameters.
With that, MH will automatically generate the diff output for variables that have changed.
.. code-block:: python
class MyTest(ModuleHelper):
diff_params = ('value', )
def __run__(self):
# example from community.general.gio_mime
self.vars.set_meta("handler", initial_value=gio_mime_get(self.runner, self.vars.mime_type), diff=True, change=True)
Moreover, if a module is set to return *facts* instead of return values, then again use the metadata ``fact=True`` and ``fact_params`` for module parameters.
Additionally, you must specify ``facts_name``, as in:
.. code-block:: python
class VolumeFacts(ModuleHelper):
facts_name = 'volume_facts'
def __init_module__(self):
self.vars.set("volume", 123, fact=True)
That generates an Ansible fact like:
.. code-block:: yaml+jinja
- name: Obtain volume facts
some.collection.volume_facts:
# parameters
- name: Print volume facts
debug:
msg: Volume fact is {{ ansible_facts.volume_facts.volume }}
.. important::
If ``facts_name`` is not set, the module does not generate any facts.
.. _ansible_collections.community.general.docsite.guide_modulehelper.changes:
Handling changes
""""""""""""""""
In MH there are many ways to indicate change in the module execution. Here they are:
Tracking changes in variables
-----------------------------
As explained above, you can enable change tracking in any number of variables in ``self.vars``.
By the end of the module execution, if any of those variables has a value different then the first value assigned to them,
then that will be picked up by MH and signalled as changed at the module output.
See the example below to learn how you can enabled change tracking in variables:
.. code-block:: python
# using __init_module__() as example, it works the same in __run__() and __quit_module__()
def __init_module__(self):
# example from community.general.ansible_galaxy_install
self.vars.set("new_roles", {}, change=True)
# example of "hidden" variable used only to track change in a value from community.general.gconftool2
self.vars.set('_value', self.vars.previous_value, output=False, change=True)
# enable change-tracking without assigning value
self.vars.set_meta("new_roles", change=True)
# if you must forcibly set an initial value to the variable
self.vars.set_meta("new_roles", initial_value=[])
...
If the end value of any variable marked ``change`` is different from its initial value, then MH will return ``changed=True``.
Indicating changes with ``changed``
-----------------------------------
If you want to indicate change directly in the code, then use the ``self.changed`` property in MH.
Beware that this is a ``@property`` method in MH, with both a *getter* and a *setter*.
By default, that hidden field is set to ``False``.
Effective change
----------------
The effective outcome for the module is determined in the ``self.has_changed()`` method, and it consists of the logical *OR* operation
between ``self.changed`` and the change calculated from ``self.vars``.
.. _ansible_collections.community.general.docsite.guide_modulehelper.exceptions:
Exceptions
""""""""""
In MH, instead of calling ``module.fail_json()`` you can just raise an exception.
The output variables are collected the same way they would be for a successful execution.
However, you can set output variables specifically for that exception, if you so choose.
.. code-block:: python
def __init_module__(self):
if not complex_validation():
self.do_raise("Validation failed!")
# Or passing output variables
awesomeness = calculate_awesomeness()
if awesomeness > 1000:
self.do_raise("Over awesome, I cannot handle it!", update_output={"awesomeness": awesomeness})
All exceptions derived from ``Exception`` are captured and translated into a ``fail_json()`` call.
However, if you do want to call ``self.module.fail_json()`` yourself it will work,
just keep in mind that there will be no automatic handling of output variables in that case.
.. _ansible_collections.community.general.docsite.guide_modulehelper.statemh:
StateModuleHelper
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Many modules use a parameter ``state`` that effectively controls the exact action performed by the module, such as
``state=present`` or ``state=absent`` for installing or removing packages.
By using ``StateModuleHelper`` you can make your code like the excerpt from the ``gconftool2`` below:
.. code-block:: python
from ansible_collections.community.general.plugins.module_utils.module_helper import StateModuleHelper
class GConftool(StateModuleHelper):
...
module = dict(
...
)
use_old_vardict = False
def __init_module__(self):
self.runner = gconftool2_runner(self.module, check_rc=True)
...
self.vars.set('previous_value', self._get(), fact=True)
self.vars.set('value_type', self.vars.value_type)
self.vars.set('_value', self.vars.previous_value, output=False, change=True)
self.vars.set_meta('value', initial_value=self.vars.previous_value)
self.vars.set('playbook_value', self.vars.value, fact=True)
...
def state_absent(self):
with self.runner("state key", output_process=self._make_process(False)) as ctx:
ctx.run()
self.vars.set('run_info', ctx.run_info, verbosity=4)
self.vars.set('new_value', None, fact=True)
self.vars._value = None
def state_present(self):
with self.runner("direct config_source value_type state key value", output_process=self._make_process(True)) as ctx:
ctx.run()
self.vars.set('run_info', ctx.run_info, verbosity=4)
self.vars.set('new_value', self._get(), fact=True)
self.vars._value = self.vars.new_value
Note that the method ``__run__()`` is implemented in ``StateModuleHelper``, all you need to implement are the methods ``state_<state_value>``.
In the example above, :ansplugin:`community.general.gconftool2#module` only has two states, ``present`` and ``absent``, thus, ``state_present()`` and ``state_absent()``.
If the controlling parameter is not called ``state``, like in :ansplugin:`community.general.jira#module` module, just let SMH know about it:
.. code-block:: python
class JIRA(StateModuleHelper):
state_param = 'operation'
def operation_create(self):
...
def operation_search(self):
...
Lastly, if the module is called with ``state=somevalue`` and the method ``state_somevalue``
is not implemented, SMH will resort to call a method called ``__state_fallback__()``.
By default, this method will raise a ``ValueError`` indicating the method was not found.
Naturally, you can override that method to write a default implementation, as in :ansplugin:`community.general.locale_gen#module`:
.. code-block:: python
def __state_fallback__(self):
if self.vars.state_tracking == self.vars.state:
return
if self.vars.ubuntu_mode:
self.apply_change_ubuntu(self.vars.state, self.vars.name)
else:
self.apply_change(self.vars.state, self.vars.name)
That module has only the states ``present`` and ``absent`` and the code for both is the one in the fallback method.
.. note::
The name of the fallback method **does not change** if you set a different value of ``state_param``.
Other Conveniences
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Delegations to AnsibleModule
""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
The MH properties and methods below are delegated as-is to the underlying ``AnsibleModule`` instance in ``self.module``:
- ``check_mode``
- ``get_bin_path()``
- ``warn()``
- ``deprecate()``
Additionally, MH will also delegate:
- ``diff_mode`` to ``self.module._diff``
- ``verbosity`` to ``self.module._verbosity``
Decorators
""""""""""
The following decorators should only be used within ``ModuleHelper`` class.
@cause_changes
--------------
This decorator will control whether the outcome of the method will cause the module to signal change in its output.
If the method completes without raising an exception it is considered to have succeeded, otherwise, it will have failed.
The decorator has a parameter ``when`` that accepts three different values: ``success``, ``failure``, and ``always``.
There are also two legacy parameters, ``on_success`` and ``on_failure``, that will be deprecated, so do not use them.
The value of ``changed`` in the module output will be set to ``True``:
- ``when="success"`` and the method completes without raising an exception.
- ``when="failure"`` and the method raises an exception.
- ``when="always"``, regardless of the method raising an exception or not.
.. code-block:: python
from ansible_collections.community.general.plugins.module_utils.module_helper import cause_changes
# adapted excerpt from the community.general.jira module
class JIRA(StateModuleHelper):
@cause_changes(when="success")
def operation_create(self):
...
If ``when`` has a different value or no parameters are specificied, the decorator will have no effect whatsoever.
.. _ansible_collections.community.general.docsite.guide_modulehelper.modulefailsdeco:
@module_fails_on_exception
--------------------------
In a method using this decorator, if an exception is raised, the text message of that exception will be captured
by the decorator and used to call ``self.module.fail_json()``.
In most of the cases there will be no need to use this decorator, because ``ModuleHelper.run()`` already uses it.
@check_mode_skip
----------------
If the module is running in check mode, this decorator will prevent the method from executing.
The return value in that case is ``None``.
.. code-block:: python
from ansible_collections.community.general.plugins.module_utils.module_helper import check_mode_skip
# adapted excerpt from the community.general.locale_gen module
class LocaleGen(StateModuleHelper):
@check_mode_skip
def __state_fallback__(self):
...
@check_mode_skip_returns
------------------------
This decorator is similar to the previous one, but the developer can control the return value for the method when running in check mode.
It is used with one of two parameters. One is ``callable`` and the return value in check mode will be ``callable(self, *args, **kwargs)``,
where ``self`` is the ``ModuleHelper`` instance and the union of ``args`` and ``kwargs`` will contain all the parameters passed to the method.
The other option is to use the parameter ``value``, in which case the method will return ``value`` when in check mode.

Check it out: `https://www.online.net/en <https://www.online.net/en>`_
Dynamic inventory for Online resources
--------------------------------------
Ansible has a dynamic inventory plugin that can list your resources.
1. Create a YAML configuration such as ``online_inventory.yml`` with this content:
.. code-block:: yaml
plugin: community.general.online
2. Set your ``ONLINE_TOKEN`` environment variable with your token.
You need to open an account and log into it before you can get a token.
You can find your token at the following page: `https://console.online.net/en/api/access <https://console.online.net/en/api/access>`_
3. You can test that your inventory is working by running:
.. code-block:: console
$ ansible-inventory -v -i online_inventory.yml --list
4. Now you can run your playbook or any other module with this inventory:
.. code-block:: ansible-output
$ ansible all -i online_inventory.yml -m ping
sd-96735 | SUCCESS => {
"changed": false,
"ping": "pong"
}

Packet.net Guide
**********************************
Introduction
============
`Packet.net <https://packet.net>`_ is a bare metal infrastructure host that is supported by the community.general collection through six cloud modules. The six modules are:
- :ansplugin:`community.general.packet_device#module`: manages servers on Packet. You can use this module to create, restart and delete devices.
- :ansplugin:`community.general.packet_ip_subnet#module`: assign IP subnet to a bare metal server
- :ansplugin:`community.general.packet_project#module`: create/delete a project in Packet host
- :ansplugin:`community.general.packet_sshkey#module`: adds a public SSH key from file or value to the Packet infrastructure. Every subsequently-created device will have this public key installed in .ssh/authorized_keys.
- :ansplugin:`community.general.packet_volume#module`: create/delete a volume in Packet host
- :ansplugin:`community.general.packet_volume_attachment#module`: attach/detach a volume to a device in the Packet host
Note, this guide assumes you are familiar with Ansible and how it works. If you are not, have a look at their :ref:`docs <ansible_documentation>` before getting started.
Requirements
============
The Packet modules connect to the Packet API using the `packet-python package <https://pypi.org/project/packet-python/>`_. You can install it with pip:
.. code-block:: console
$ pip install packet-python
In order to check the state of devices created by Ansible on Packet, it is a good idea to install one of the `Packet CLI clients <https://www.packet.net/developers/integrations/>`_. Otherwise you can check them through the `Packet portal <https://app.packet.net/portal>`_.
To use the modules you will need a Packet API token. You can generate an API token through the Packet portal `here <https://app.packet.net/portal#/api-keys>`__. The simplest way to authenticate yourself is to set the Packet API token in an environment variable:
.. code-block:: console
$ export PACKET_API_TOKEN=Bfse9F24SFtfs423Gsd3ifGsd43sSdfs
If you are not comfortable exporting your API token, you can pass it as a parameter to the modules.
On Packet, devices and reserved IP addresses belong to `projects <https://www.packet.com/developers/api/#projects>`_. In order to use the packet_device module, you need to specify the UUID of the project in which you want to create or manage devices. You can find a project's UUID in the Packet portal `here <https://app.packet.net/portal#/projects/list/table/>`_ (it is just under the project table) or through one of the available `CLIs <https://www.packet.net/developers/integrations/>`_.
If you want to use a new SSH key pair in this tutorial, you can generate it to ``./id_rsa`` and ``./id_rsa.pub`` as:
.. code-block:: console
$ ssh-keygen -t rsa -f ./id_rsa
If you want to use an existing key pair, just copy the private and public key over to the playbook directory.
Device Creation
===============
The following code block is a simple playbook that creates one `Type 0 <https://www.packet.com/cloud/servers/t1-small/>`_ server (the ``plan`` parameter). You have to supply ``plan`` and ``operating_system``. ``location`` defaults to ``ewr1`` (Parsippany, NJ). You can find all the possible values for the parameters through a `CLI client <https://www.packet.net/developers/integrations/>`_.
.. code-block:: yaml+jinja
# playbook_create.yml
- name: Create Ubuntu device
hosts: localhost
tasks:
- community.general.packet_sshkey:
key_file: ./id_rsa.pub
label: tutorial key
- community.general.packet_device:
project_id: <your_project_id>
hostnames: myserver
operating_system: ubuntu_16_04
plan: baremetal_0
facility: sjc1
After running ``ansible-playbook playbook_create.yml``, you should have a server provisioned on Packet. You can verify through a CLI or in the `Packet portal <https://app.packet.net/portal#/projects/list/table>`__.
If you get an error with the message "failed to set machine state present, error: Error 404: Not Found", please verify your project UUID.
Updating Devices
================
The two parameters used to uniquely identify Packet devices are: "device_ids" and "hostnames". Both parameters accept either a single string (later converted to a one-element list), or a list of strings.
The ``device_ids`` and ``hostnames`` parameters are mutually exclusive. The following values are all acceptable:
- device_ids: ``a27b7a83-fc93-435b-a128-47a5b04f2dcf``
- hostnames: ``mydev1``
- device_ids: ``[a27b7a83-fc93-435b-a128-47a5b04f2dcf, 4887130f-0ccd-49a0-99b0-323c1ceb527b]``
- hostnames: ``[mydev1, mydev2]``
In addition, hostnames can contain a special ``%d`` formatter along with a ``count`` parameter that lets you easily expand hostnames that follow a simple name and number pattern; in other words, ``hostnames: "mydev%d", count: 2`` will expand to [mydev1, mydev2].
If your playbook acts on existing Packet devices, you can only pass the ``hostname`` and ``device_ids`` parameters. The following playbook shows how you can reboot a specific Packet device by setting the ``hostname`` parameter:
.. code-block:: yaml+jinja
# playbook_reboot.yml
- name: reboot myserver
hosts: localhost
tasks:
- community.general.packet_device:
project_id: <your_project_id>
hostnames: myserver
state: rebooted
You can also identify specific Packet devices with the ``device_ids`` parameter. The device's UUID can be found in the `Packet Portal <https://app.packet.net/portal>`_ or by using a `CLI <https://www.packet.net/developers/integrations/>`_. The following playbook removes a Packet device using the ``device_ids`` field:
.. code-block:: yaml+jinja
# playbook_remove.yml
- name: remove a device
hosts: localhost
tasks:
- community.general.packet_device:
project_id: <your_project_id>
device_ids: <myserver_device_id>
state: absent
More Complex Playbooks
======================
In this example, we will create a CoreOS cluster with `user data <https://packet.com/developers/docs/servers/key-features/user-data/>`_.
The CoreOS cluster will use `etcd <https://etcd.io/>`_ for discovery of other servers in the cluster. Before provisioning your servers, you will need to generate a discovery token for your cluster:
.. code-block:: console
$ curl -w "\n" 'https://discovery.etcd.io/new?size=3'
The following playbook will create an SSH key, 3 Packet servers, and then wait until SSH is ready (or until 5 minutes passed). Make sure to substitute the discovery token URL in ``user_data``, and the ``project_id`` before running ``ansible-playbook``. Also, feel free to change ``plan`` and ``facility``.
.. code-block:: yaml+jinja
# playbook_coreos.yml
- name: Start 3 CoreOS nodes in Packet and wait until SSH is ready
hosts: localhost
tasks:
- community.general.packet_sshkey:
key_file: ./id_rsa.pub
label: new
- community.general.packet_device:
hostnames: [coreos-one, coreos-two, coreos-three]
operating_system: coreos_beta
plan: baremetal_0
facility: ewr1
project_id: <your_project_id>
wait_for_public_IPv: 4
user_data: |
#cloud-config
coreos:
etcd2:
discovery: https://discovery.etcd.io/<token>
advertise-client-urls: http://$private_ipv4:2379,http://$private_ipv4:4001
initial-advertise-peer-urls: http://$private_ipv4:2380
listen-client-urls: http://0.0.0.0:2379,http://0.0.0.0:4001
listen-peer-urls: http://$private_ipv4:2380
fleet:
public-ip: $private_ipv4
units:
- name: etcd2.service
command: start
- name: fleet.service
command: start
register: newhosts
- name: wait for ssh
ansible.builtin.wait_for:
delay: 1
host: "{{ item.public_ipv4 }}"
port: 22
state: started
timeout: 500
loop: "{{ newhosts.results[0].devices }}"
As with most Ansible modules, the default states of the Packet modules are idempotent, meaning the resources in your project will remain the same after re-runs of a playbook. Thus, we can keep the ``packet_sshkey`` module call in our playbook. If the public key is already in your Packet account, the call will have no effect.
The second module call provisions 3 Packet Type 0 (specified using the ``plan`` parameter) servers in the project identified by the ``project_id`` parameter. The servers are all provisioned with CoreOS beta (the ``operating_system`` parameter) and are customized with cloud-config user data passed to the ``user_data`` parameter.
The ``packet_device`` module has a ``wait_for_public_IPv`` that is used to specify the version of the IP address to wait for (valid values are ``4`` or ``6`` for IPv4 or IPv6). If specified, Ansible will wait until the GET API call for a device contains an Internet-routeable IP address of the specified version. When referring to an IP address of a created device in subsequent module calls, it is wise to use the ``wait_for_public_IPv`` parameter, or ``state: active`` in the packet_device module call.
Run the playbook:
.. code-block:: console
$ ansible-playbook playbook_coreos.yml
Once the playbook quits, your new devices should be reachable through SSH. Try to connect to one and check if etcd has started properly:
.. code-block:: console
tomk@work $ ssh -i id_rsa core@$one_of_the_servers_ip
core@coreos-one ~ $ etcdctl cluster-health
If you have any questions or comments let us know! help@packet.net

.. note::
This guide assumes you are familiar with Ansible and how it works.
If you are not, have a look at :ref:`ansible_documentation` before getting started.
Requirements
============
The Scaleway modules and inventory script connect to the Scaleway API using `Scaleway REST API <https://developer.scaleway.com>`_.
To use the modules and inventory script you will need a Scaleway API token.
You can generate an API token through the `Scaleway console's credential page <https://cloud.scaleway.com/#/credentials>`__.
The simplest way to authenticate yourself is to set the Scaleway API token in an environment variable:
.. code-block:: console
$ export SCW_TOKEN=00000000-1111-2222-3333-444444444444
If you are not comfortable exporting your API token, you can pass it as a parameter to the modules using the ``api_token`` argument.
If you want to use a new SSH key pair in this tutorial, you can generate it to ``./id_rsa`` and ``./id_rsa.pub`` as:
.. code-block:: console
$ ssh-keygen -t rsa -f ./id_rsa
If you want to use an existing key pair, just copy the private and public key over to the playbook directory.
How to add an SSH key?
======================
Connection to Scaleway Compute nodes use Secure Shell.
SSH keys are stored at the account level, which means that you can reuse the same SSH key in multiple nodes.
The first step to configure Scaleway compute resources is to have at least one SSH key configured.
:ansplugin:`community.general.scaleway_sshkey#module` is a module that manages SSH keys on your Scaleway account.
You can add an SSH key to your account by including the following task in a playbook:
.. code-block:: yaml+jinja
- name: "Add SSH key"
community.general.scaleway_sshkey:
ssh_pub_key: "ssh-rsa AAAA..."
state: "present"
The ``ssh_pub_key`` parameter contains your ssh public key as a string. Here is an example inside a playbook:
.. code-block:: yaml+jinja
- name: Test SSH key lifecycle on a Scaleway account
hosts: localhost
gather_facts: false
environment:
SCW_API_KEY: ""
tasks:
- community.general.scaleway_sshkey:
ssh_pub_key: "ssh-rsa AAAAB...424242 developer@example.com"
state: present
register: result
- ansible.builtin.assert:
that:
- result is success and result is changed
How to create a compute instance?
=================================
Now that we have an SSH key configured, the next step is to spin up a server!
:ansplugin:`community.general.scaleway_compute#module` is a module that can create, update and delete Scaleway compute instances:
.. code-block:: yaml+jinja
- name: Create a server
community.general.scaleway_compute:
name: foobar
state: present
image: 00000000-1111-2222-3333-444444444444
organization: 00000000-1111-2222-3333-444444444444
region: ams1
commercial_type: START1-S
Here are the parameter details for the example shown above:
- ``name`` is the name of the instance (the one that will show up in your web console).
- ``image`` is the UUID of the system image you would like to use.
A list of all images is available for each availability zone.
- ``organization`` represents the organization that your account is attached to.
- ``region`` represents the Availability Zone which your instance is in (for this example, ``par1`` and ``ams1``).
- ``commercial_type`` represents the name of the commercial offers.
You can check out the Scaleway pricing page to find which instance is right for you.
Take a look at this short playbook to see a working example using ``scaleway_compute``:
.. code-block:: yaml+jinja
- name: Test compute instance lifecycle on a Scaleway account
hosts: localhost
gather_facts: false
environment:
SCW_API_KEY: ""
tasks:
- name: Create a server
register: server_creation_task
community.general.scaleway_compute:
name: foobar
state: present
image: 00000000-1111-2222-3333-444444444444
organization: 00000000-1111-2222-3333-444444444444
region: ams1
commercial_type: START1-S
wait: true
- ansible.builtin.debug:
var: server_creation_task
- ansible.builtin.assert:
that:
- server_creation_task is success
- server_creation_task is changed
- name: Run it
community.general.scaleway_compute:
name: foobar
state: running
image: 00000000-1111-2222-3333-444444444444
organization: 00000000-1111-2222-3333-444444444444
region: ams1
commercial_type: START1-S
wait: true
tags:
- web_server
register: server_run_task
- ansible.builtin.debug:
var: server_run_task
- ansible.builtin.assert:
that:
- server_run_task is success
- server_run_task is changed
Dynamic Inventory Plugin
========================
Ansible ships with :ansplugin:`community.general.scaleway#inventory`.
You can now get a complete inventory of your Scaleway resources through this plugin and filter it on
different parameters (``regions`` and ``tags`` are currently supported).
Let us create an example!
Suppose that we want to get all hosts that got the tag web_server.
Create a file named ``scaleway_inventory.yml`` with the following content:
.. code-block:: yaml+jinja
plugin: community.general.scaleway
regions:
- ams1
- par1
tags:
- web_server
This inventory means that we want all hosts that got the tag ``web_server`` on the zones ``ams1`` and ``par1``.
Once you have configured this file, you can get the information using the following command:
.. code-block:: console
$ ansible-inventory --list -i scaleway_inventory.yml
The output will be:
.. code-block:: json
{
"_meta": {
"hostvars": {
"dd8e3ae9-0c7c-459e-bc7b-aba8bfa1bb8d": {
"ansible_verbosity": 6,
"arch": "x86_64",
"commercial_type": "START1-S",
"hostname": "foobar",
"ipv4": "192.0.2.1",
"organization": "00000000-1111-2222-3333-444444444444",
"state": "running",
"tags": [
"web_server"
]
}
}
},
"all": {
"children": [
"ams1",
"par1",
"ungrouped",
"web_server"
]
},
"ams1": {},
"par1": {
"hosts": [
"dd8e3ae9-0c7c-459e-bc7b-aba8bfa1bb8d"
]
},
"ungrouped": {},
"web_server": {
"hosts": [
"dd8e3ae9-0c7c-459e-bc7b-aba8bfa1bb8d"
]
}
}
As you can see, we get different groups of hosts.
``par1`` and ``ams1`` are groups based on location.
``web_server`` is a group based on a tag.
In case a filter parameter is not defined, the plugin supposes all values possible are wanted.
This means that for each tag that exists on your Scaleway compute nodes, a group based on each tag will be created.
Scaleway S3 object storage
==========================
`Object Storage <https://www.scaleway.com/object-storage>`_ allows you to store any kind of objects (documents, images, videos, and so on).
As the Scaleway API is S3 compatible, Ansible supports it natively through the amazon.aws modules: :ansplugin:`amazon.aws.s3_bucket#module`, :ansplugin:`amazon.aws.s3_object#module`.
You can find many examples in the `scaleway_s3 integration tests <https://github.com/ansible/ansible-legacy-tests/tree/devel/test/legacy/roles/scaleway_s3>`_.
.. code-block:: yaml+jinja
- hosts: myserver
vars:
scaleway_region: nl-ams
s3_url: https://s3.nl-ams.scw.cloud
environment:
# AWS_ACCESS_KEY matches your scaleway organization id available at https://cloud.scaleway.com/#/account
AWS_ACCESS_KEY: 00000000-1111-2222-3333-444444444444
# AWS_SECRET_KEY matches a secret token that you can retrieve at https://cloud.scaleway.com/#/credentials
AWS_SECRET_KEY: aaaaaaaa-bbbb-cccc-dddd-eeeeeeeeeeee
module_defaults:
group/amazon.aws.aws:
s3_url: '{{ s3_url }}'
region: '{{ scaleway_region }}'
tasks:
# use a fact instead of a variable, otherwise template is evaluate each time variable is used
- ansible.builtin.set_fact:
bucket_name: "{{ 99999999 | random | to_uuid }}"
# "requester_pays:" is mandatory because Scaleway does not implement related API
# another way is to use amazon.aws.s3_object and "mode: create" !
- amazon.aws.s3_bucket:

requester_pays:
- name: Another way to create the bucket
amazon.aws.s3_object:

mode: create
encrypt: false
register: bucket_creation_check
- name: add something in the bucket
amazon.aws.s3_object:
mode: put
bucket: '{{ bucket_name }}'
src: /tmp/test.txt # needs to be created before
object: test.txt
encrypt: false # server side encryption must be disabled

VarDict Guide
=============
Introduction
^^^^^^^^^^^^
The ``ansible_collections.community.general.plugins.module_utils.vardict`` module util provides the
``VarDict`` class to help manage the module variables. That class is a container for module variables,
especially the ones for which the module must keep track of state changes, and the ones that should
be published as return values.
Each variable has extra behaviors controlled by associated metadata, simplifying the generation of
output values from the module.
Quickstart
""""""""""
The simplest way of using ``VarDict`` is:
.. code-block:: python
from ansible_collections.community.general.plugins.module_utils.vardict import VarDict
Then in ``main()``, or any other function called from there:
.. code-block:: python
vars = VarDict()
# Next 3 statements are equivalent
vars.abc = 123
vars["abc"] = 123
vars.set("abc", 123)
vars.xyz = "bananas"
vars.ghi = False
And by the time the module is about to exit:
.. code-block:: python
results = vars.output()
module.exit_json(**results)
That makes the return value of the module:
.. code-block:: javascript
{
"abc": 123,
"xyz": "bananas",
"ghi": false
}
Metadata
""""""""
The metadata values associated with each variable are:
- ``output: bool`` - marks the variable for module output as a module return value.
- ``fact: bool`` - marks the variable for module output as an Ansible fact.
- ``verbosity: int`` - sets the minimum level of verbosity for which the variable will be included in the output.
- ``change: bool`` - controls the detection of changes in the variable value.
- ``initial_value: any`` - when using ``change`` and need to forcefully set an intial value to the variable.
- ``diff: bool`` - used along with ``change``, this generates an Ansible-style diff ``dict``.
See the sections below for more details on how to use the metadata.
Using VarDict
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Basic Usage
"""""""""""
As shown above, variables can be accessed using the ``[]`` operator, as in a ``dict`` object,
and also as an object attribute, such as ``vars.abc``. The form using the ``set()``
method is special in the sense that you can use it to set metadata values:
.. code-block:: python
vars.set("abc", 123, output=False)
vars.set("abc", 123, output=True, change=True)
Another way to set metadata after the variables have been created is:
.. code-block:: python
vars.set_meta("abc", output=False)
vars.set_meta("abc", output=True, change=True, diff=True)
You can use either operator and attribute forms to access the value of the variable. Other ways to
access its value and its metadata are:
.. code-block:: python
print("abc value = {0}".format(vars.var("abc")["value"])) # get the value
print("abc output? {0}".format(vars.get_meta("abc")["output"])) # get the metadata like this
The names of methods, such as ``set``, ``get_meta``, ``output`` amongst others, are reserved and
cannot be used as variable names. If you try to use a reserved name a ``ValueError`` exception
is raised with the message "Name <var> is reserved".
Generating output
"""""""""""""""""
By default, every variable create will be enable for output with minimum verbosity set to zero, in
other words, they will always be in the output by default.
You can control that when creating the variable for the first time or later in the code:
.. code-block:: python
vars.set("internal", x + 4, output=False)
vars.set_meta("internal", output=False)
You can also set the verbosity of some variable, like:
.. code-block:: python
vars.set("abc", x + 4)
vars.set("debug_x", x, verbosity=3)
results = vars.output(module._verbosity)
module.exit_json(**results)
If the module was invoked with verbosity lower than 3, then the output will only contain
the variable ``abc``. If running at higher verbosity, as in ``ansible-playbook -vvv``,
then the output will also contain ``debug_x``.
Generating facts is very similar to regular output, but variables are not marked as facts by default.
.. code-block:: python
vars.set("modulefact", x + 4, fact=True)

Handling change
"""""""""""""""
You can use ``VarDict`` to determine whether variables have had their values changed.
.. code-block:: python
vars.set("abc", 42, change=True)
vars.abc = 90
results = vars.output()
results["changed"] = vars.has_changed
module.exit_json(**results)
If tracking changes in variables, you may want to present the difference between the initial and the final
values of it. For that, you want to use:
.. code-block:: python
vars.set("abc", 42, change=True, diff=True)
vars.abc = 90
results = vars.output()
results["changed"] = vars.has_changed
results["diff"] = vars.diff()
module.exit_json(**results)
.. versionadded:: 7.1.0
