With this change, the presence of Ansible configuration files (like
playbook file, inventory path, galaxy role file, etc.) is no longer
performed by the `config` classes, but by the `provisioner` classes
(at the beginning of the provision command).
This change fixes several issues:
- Resolve#6984 as `provision` method are only executed when remote
(ssh) communication with the guest machine is possible.
- Resolve#6763 in a better way than 4e451c6 initially did.
- Improve the general provisioner speed since the `config` checks are
actually triggered by many vagrant actions (e.g. `destroy`,...), and
can also be triggered multiple times during a vagrant run (e.g. on
callback request made by the machine provider).
Unlike the former `config`-based checks, the provision action won't
collect all the invalid options, but only report the first invalid
option found and abort the execution.
Some unit tests were not implemented yet to save my scarce "open source
contribution time" for other important issues, but they should be done
at last via GH-6633.
Changes:
- Add "config" unit tests for `ansible_local` (guest)
- Share some "config" examples between both ansible provisioners
- Move `config_host.rb` specific examples to `config/host.rb`
- Add a requirement to "../helpers" in `config/guest.rb` in order to be
able to run the related unit tests
References:
- This is the first part of GH-6633 resolution
- This change is a handy prerequisite for GH-6570
Not addressed yet:
- FIXME (guest.rb): Some test-double stubs are currently not working as
expected, and the related checks are commented out for the moment
(no idea why, but this is not urgent to be fixed because of GH-7335
rejection. See also GH-6984)
- FIXME (shared.rb): The guest-based config should actually NOT return
an error when the extra_vars file cannot be found, but only display a
a warning (similarly to the changes done for GH-6763, see 4e451c6)
