Prior to this commit, vagrant would halt if it could not parse the
metadata file for a box to check for updates with. This commit changes
that to behave like when vagrant fails to download a metadata file and
continue on but warn the user it failed to check for box updates.
This commit adds a bit more helpful messaging for the user when asking
for a provider that might not exist or does not follow the correct
casing. If it can find a match on a provider it knows about, it will
suggest it.
This commit adds a function on windows for the VirtualBox provider to
check if Hyper-V is enabled. If so, exit and display a warning to the
user that going forward will result in a system crash.
Display warning to user about the VirtualBox SharedFoldersEnableSymlinksCreate
option with link to VirtualBox documentation and instructions on how the
setting can be disabled.
Prior to this commit, when the `--global` flag was used with the
`vagrant box outdated` command, it would ignore box providers and not
inform the user of all outdated boxes. This commit fixes that by
displaying each box within the users environment, and includes the
provider of the box in the message.
As of `net-ssh` version 4.2.0, the key :paranoid has been deprecated in
favor of using :verify_host_key. This commit updates Vagrants ssh config
to use the new key, and deprecates the use of :paranoid.
This commit adds some additional handling for when Vagrant loads config
files. Instead of showing the basic ruby exception, it prints a more
helpful error message and tries to direct the user to the line number
and file where the exception is occuring.
This commit adds better messaging to the user if the parallel flag is
used without the force flag. It also makes the state checking based on
the delta between the initial and final states of the guests due to the
fact that there is no guarantee what the "destroyed" state id will be
between providers.
- Keep the Programming Errors with corresponding Exception class and
en.yml message template. Fix the alphabetical order in errors.rb by
the way.
- Fix English wording in the documentation and en.yml messages
- Use StandardError for unknown error rescuing.
Thanks @chrisroberts!
Vagrant will verify that the current Ansible version does support the
requested compatibility mode (only applicable if not "auto", of course).
As mentioned in the documentation, there is no sanity checks between
`version` option and `compatibility_mode` option.
With this change, the host-based provisioner is also improved to
execute only once the "ansible" command (and store the gathered
information for multiple usages like version requirement and
compatibility checks). On the other hand, the guest-based provisioner
can still potentially execute "ansible" twice (once in the
AnsibleInstalled cap, and via "gather_ansible_version" function via
Base::set_compatibility_mode).
Before this change, only the ansible_local provisioner supported this
option (for ansible version requirement, and pip installation). Now, the
ansible host-based provisioner can also require a exact ansible version.

Note: this has been added as part of #6570 resolution, since the
introduction of the `compatibility_mode` auto-detection made both
provisioners made capable to detect ansible version.
Pending: optimize the code to avoid duplicated executions of "ansible
--version" command.
With this change, it is now possible to get rid of many deprecation
messages successively introduced in Ansible 1.9, and 2.0. More
interesting, the generated inventory will contain the recommended
variable names (e.g. `ansible_host` instead of `ansible_ssh_host`)
when the compatibility mode is set to '2.0'.
Details:
- Add `compatibility_mode` option to control the Ansible parameters
format to be used. The value corresponds to the minimal version
supported. For the moment, possible values are '1.8' (corresponding to
Vagrant's former behaviour) or '2.0'.
Note that a dynamic inventory generated in compatibility mode '2.0'
is not supported by Ansible 1.x. On the other hand, Ansible 2.x so far
supports inventory format generated by the compatibility mode '1.8'.
- Add compatibility mode auto-detection, based on the available Ansible
version. This is the default behaviour in order to bring a maximum of
user friendliness. The drawback of this approach is to let potential
compatibility breaking risks, for `ansible` provisioner setups that
already integrate Ansible 2.x **AND** rely on the existence of
the generated `_ssh` variable names. Thanks to the vagrant warnings
(and its release notes), I argue that it is worth to offer
auto-detection by default, which offers a sweet transition to most
users.
- Add `become`, `become_user` and `ask_become_pass` options and their
backwards compatible aliases. The legacy options are now deprecated.
Note that we intentionally didn't provide a '1.9' compatibility mode,
as it would add extra-complexity for practically no added-value.
To my knowledge, the Ansible 2.x series haven't introduced yet any major
changes or deprecations that would motivate to introduce a higher
version compatibility mode (to be confirmed/verified).
Resolve GH-6570
Still Pending:
- Optimization: Reduce the number of `ansible` command executions.
Currently two exec calls will be performed when the compatibility
mode auto-detection is enabled (i.e. by default). We could make the
provisioner a little bit smarter to only execute `ansible` only once
in any situation (by combining "presence" and "version" checks).
- User-friendliness: Add better validator on `compatibility_mode`
option, and shows a warning or an error instead of the silent
fallback on the auto-detection modus.
- Test coverage: All the added behaviours are not fully covered yet.
Prior to this commit, if you set up multiple folders to export with NFS
on linux with the exact same hostpath, the template used to write
/etc/exports would end up placing the same path with the same IP in
/etc/exports and cause an error preventing the folders from being
properly mounted. This commit fixes that by first looking at which
folders are being exported and if there are any duplicates. If so,
remove the duplicates and only export 1 hostpath folder. If these
duplicate folders have differing nfs linux options, an exception must be
thrown because we cannot assume which options the user intended to
export with.
