I missed to rename the refactored exceptions as AnsibleCommandFailed in
the guest-based parts. The lack of unit tests for these parts hurts...
on my agenda, I swear!
See c1f3d114f5
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.
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.
Vagrant 1.7.1 creates and injects new ssh keys for each virtual machine.
When it started ansible with the "parallel provisioning trick",
it would only send the ssh key of the targeted virtual machine.
With this change, vagrant now stores the ssh key for each virtual
machines directly in the generated ansible inventory, and thus allow
ansible parallelism.
Note that this change is not sufficient, as it would break vagrant
configuration based on a custom inventory (file or script). This issue
will be addressed in a next commit.

The Ansible Vagrant provisioner has a race where the inventory file is
updated every time the provisioner runs unless a file is provided.
Therefore if Ansible attempts to provision two nodes in parallel, you
may see the following race:
* System A writes the inventory file and calls Ansible.
* System B starts to provision and truncates the file before
creating a new one.
* Ansible on system A now attempts to read the inventory
file, which is blank. Ansible bombs out with "ERROR: provided
hosts list is empty".
To fix this, we only allow Vagrant to update the inventory file if
it needs to.
Revert 1c884fa4e5 which introduced the
following bug:
Instead of allowing to dump the `ansible-playbook` command details when
VAGRANT_LOG=debug was defined, it was then impossible to disable this
console output when VAGRANT_LOG was undefined (in such case,
``@logger.debug? systematically returns `true`)
In order to keep things simple and focused, it is preferable to drop the
bad idea to mix Ansible verbosity and Vagrant log level.
Fix#5803
After #5532 (e745436df3), it was no longer
possible to enable ansible colorized output. Even though
`ANSIBLE_NOCOLOR` has no effect *at the moment* in vagrant+ansible
integration, I agree to keep it for clarity and consistence.
The new `--no-color` behaviour (bug fix#5531) is now covered by a unit
test.
//cc @marsam, @sethvargo
This change helps to avoid troubles like reported in #5018 and #4860.
Note that for sake of configuration simplicity, no new `ansible.timeout`
option has been added. The users who want to set a different value can
rely on `ansible.raw_arguments`.
This SSH option is always set, except when Vagrant is running from an
operating system fo the Solaris-family, as this parameter is not
supported by SunSSH. Logic taken from
bed1f8335f/lib/vagrant/util/ssh.rb (L116-L121)Fix#5017
Like Vagrant's default SSH behaviors (e.g ssh or ssh-config commands),
the Ansible provisioner should by default not modify or read the user
known host file (e.g. ~/.ssh/known_hosts).
Given that `UserKnownHostsFile=/dev/null` SSH option is usually combined
with `StrictHostKeyChecking=no`, it seems quite reasonable to bind the
activation/disactivation of both options to `host_key_checking`
provisioner attribute.
For the records, a discussion held in Ansible-Development mailing list
clearly confirmed that there is no short-term plan to adapt Ansible to
offer an extra option or change the behavior of
ANSIBLE_HOST_KEY_CHECKING. For this reason, the current implementation
seems reasonable and should be stable on the long run.

ref #3396
When `--connection` argument is not specified, Ansible will use the
'smart' mode, which can either use `ssh` or `paramiko` transports,
depending of the version of OpenSSH available. If OpenSSH version is new
enough to support ControlPersist technology, `ssh` will be used.
See also http://docs.ansible.com/intro_configuration.html#transport.
In order to support some advanced features of Vagrant (e.g. multiple ssh
private key identities or ssh forwarding), the Ansible provisioner
already must force `ssh` connection mode.
Having to deal with the possible fallback to `paramiko` increase the
burden of special cases that Ansible provisioner must handle, without
any added value, as Vagrant is based on OpenSSH and its users are
usually using modern operating systems.
With this change, the Ansible provisioner will officially only support
`ssh`. It will still be possible to switch to another connection mode
via `raw_arguments`, but it will breach the "contract", and no
(community) support can be expected in such use case.
ref #3900, #3396
As a result of #4670 and the safe decision to not memoize
machine.ssh_info (see 89a4a29d65 and
5036d16461), it is preferable to store the
ssh_info hashes and avoid multiple function calls when generating the
ansible inventory.
Motivation:
By printing out the ansible command used behind the scene, we can ease
the support effort to very quickly identify whether a problem is due to
Vagrant provisioner or Ansible itself.
By referring the directory that contains the generated inventory file,
users can easily provide more settings with additional files stored in
the same directory.
Since the Ansible provisioner now potentially exports ANSIBLE_SSH_ARGS
variable, it is fair to allow to extend the content of this environment
variable (`ssh_args` parameters from ansible.cfg file have lower
priority)
Note that this feature requires to force `--connection=ssh`. This is not
a big deal as `paramiko` mode is deprecated and in most cases `smart`
mode enables `ssh` mode.
