Previously the default channel was "current", but after discussion with
@coderanger on GH-6979, it seems like this was a poor design decision.
Instead, we should use the stable channel and allow users to opt-in to
prerelease versions.
Fixes GH-6979
In cd93721, I relied on a suprising combination of quotes to protect ssh
execution to strip the quoted path to the private key file.
Since any ssh command line argument can be passed via
`ANSIBLE_SSH_ARGS`, it is quite more readable and easy to rely on the
`-i` argument, which is not affected like `-o IdentityFile=...` and also
supports multiple occurences.

Finally fix#6671
Note that I decided to not squash both commits for better
documentation and traceability.
Surprisingly (to me at least), a simple quote enclosure was not enough
to fix the problem.
Caveat: the stringified ansible-playbook command logged in verbose mode
is wrongly formatted (no quotes are escaped).
Fix#6671
Set the IPv6 adapter IP to be <prefix>::1. Otherwise, guest to host
communication over IPv6 is not routed correctly. This means that
consumers should not specify <prefix>::1 IP addresses to VirtualBox,
which should be a reasonable restriction.
Fixes#6658
Vagrant should only consider the host-only interfaces used by the
virtual machine in the IPv6 fixup code. There may be other interfaces
present on the system with IPv6 addresses that for various reasons
would fail the routing check (for example, an interface with no
machines attached).
The patch changes the behavior to not scan all of the host-only
interfaces and adds a unit test for the behavior (that the correct IP
is validated).
Lastly, there is a small fix here that may not be an issue for most
people where the IPv6 prefix was asummed to be a multiple of 16 for
the purposes of constructing the UDP probe datagram. This assumption
has been removed.
Fixes#6586
With the introduction of inventory variables, group members provided as
String are not splitted (by ' ') into an array (instead of
auto-conversion to a single-item array).
String and Symbol types are different when used as a Hash key. By
default the Vagrant machine names are set in Symbol format, but users
may write their `host_vars` entries with String keys. This is a very
simple way to ensure smooth experience, without having to coerce the
data types during the config validation (e.g. with a library like
Hashie, which is currently not in the Vagrant dependencies)

At the moment, the vagrant ssh username is used as default username when
force_remote_user option is disabled, even for winrm-communiating
machines. This could be improved in the future, but people hitting this
problem can easily work around it by syncing `config.ssh.unsername` and
`config.winrm.username` in their Vagrantfile.
ref #5086
This is required because the Chef Server almost always needs a node name to
interact. This will default to the hostname, but that's always going to be
`vagrant.vm`, which will collide easily.
This generates a random hostname with `vagrant-` as the prefix and stores the
result in the machine's data directory.
This fixes GH-6395 by only appending the access_token once. It also fixes a
bug that was never reported. If a user supplied an access_token for a box URL,
Vagrant would silently overwrite it.
After this commit, Vagrant only appends an access_token to the URL if no
value exists at the key.
With this change, the existing host-based Ansible provisioner is
refactored to share a maximum of code with this new guest-based Ansible
provisioner.
At this stage of development, the existing unit tests are intentionally
modified as little as possible, to keep safe the existing funtionalities.
Other issues resolved by this changeset:
- Display a warning when running from a Windows host [GH-5292]
- Do not run `ansible-playbook` in verbose mode when the `verbose` option
is set to an empty string.
The benefits of the following "breaking change" are the following:
- default behaviour naturally fits with most common usage (i.e. always
connect with Vagrant SSH settings)
- the autogenerated inventory is more consistent by providing both the
SSH username and private key.
- no longer needed to explain how to override Ansible `remote_user` parameters
Important: With the `force_remote_user` option, people still can fall
back to the former behavior (prior to Vagrant 1.8.0), which means that
Vagrant integration capabilities are still quite open and flexible.
We gained a ton of improvemnts to WinRM error handling in
https://github.com/mitchellh/vagrant/pull/4943, but we also got one bug.
The new code raises an exception when `winrm_info` does not return right
away. This was preventing us from catching the retry/timout logic that's
meant to wait until boot_timeout for the WinRM communicator to be ready.
This restores the proper behavior by rescuing the WinRMNotReady
exception and continuing to retry until the surrounding timeout fires.
When provisioning multiple machines in sequence (the default vagrant
behaviour), it doesn't make sense to require to provide the private ssh
key(s) via the custom ansible inventory script/file.
To align with the handling of multiple ssh keys per machine, we won't
rely any longer on `--private-key` command line argument, but only pass
the keys via `ANSIBLE_SSH_ARGS` environment variable.
Note that when vagrant generates the ansible inventory and that only one
key is associated to a VM, this step would be redundant, and therefore
won't be applied.
This change fixes the breaking change introduced by 3d62a91.
