- Fix#9796: Failing installation on bionic (18.04 LTS)
- Remove support for precise (12.04 LTS), which is out of public support
(On this version, the package python-software-properties contained
the add-apt-repository tool)
- Reduce the number of SSH calls, and avoid unnecessary apt-get calls.
This commit sets the structured_facts option to nil if its still
UNSET_VALUE at the finalize step. This was causing a bug when the facter
config was set but was not using structured facts.
The pull request #6561 added the support for arrays for data_bags_path
in chef-solo and chef-zero, but missed a `.first` in chef-zero (which
only keeps the first data bag path). The documentation and the template
for chef-zero are already good (since #6561).
Fixes#9668.
This bug (invalid method call) hasn't been caught by unit tests because
Vagrant::Plugin::V2::Config catches all invalid/bad configuration calls
and save them for generating error messages during the "validate" stage.
This way, the `ask_sudo_pass=(value)` method was not interrupted and the
`@ask_become_pass` attribute was (surprisingly) correctly set (allowing
the related unit tests to pass).
In order to avoid similar problem to happen again, the deprecation
message output is now fully verified.
This commit ensures that we actually break when the download was
successful. Before it tried to download again for every iteration of the
loop. In addition the number of iterations have been increased. I've
experienced timeouts on third retry. Increasing to 5.
On Debian installations, wget is installed even into the most minimal
environment. Even Python support on Debian cannot be guaranteed if
Standard System Utilities was not selected at installation time (or if
debootstrap was used), which is why the retrieved bootstrap-salt.sh
script takes care of installing it prior to installing Salt.
Fixes#8991.
1. When remote executing scripts one should always call powershell with
1a. "-NonInteractive", in order to prevent interactive prompts from leading to an endless waiting time for the script to return
1b. "-NoProfile", in order to prevent the loading of unknown custom profiles before execution of the script which could have unintended side effects
2. During my tests I constantly ran into 408 timeouts when downloading the salt binaries. I've prevented that by adding a simple retry mechanism and an error exit in case of multiple failures. Without this change the bootstrap script never returned (and neither did vagrant up)
Output format of ui.info method (bold text) makes reading long script outputs really heavy on the eyes. ui.detail is a better match for this type of output.
- 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.
Resolve#8914
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.
The patterns "all" is a special keyword that target all hosts in the
inventory. Therefore it makes sense to accept "all:vars" as a group
variable name. Note that "*:vars" pattern is not valid in an Ansible
inventory.

This commit aligns how the file provisioner should work on all host
machines. It ensures that a `/.` is only applied if the user intended
to upload a folder to a destination under a different name. It ensures
that if uploading to a windows guest with a different destination folder
name, it does not nest the source folder under that name so that it
works the same as it does on linux platforms. It also updates the
behavior of the winrm upload communicator by allowing an array of paths
to be uploaded instead of a single file or folder to allow for this new
functionality for windows guests.
This commit introduces the salt_arg option that allows a user to pass
additional command line flags to the `salt` tool when provisioning with
a master setup.
It also adds additional config validation to ensure that both
`salt_args` and `salt_call_args` is an array.
