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)

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
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.
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 current docker installer attempt to install the linux-image-extra-`uname -r` DEB package on Debian systems.
This package may not exist, for example on custom kernels (e.g., Linode servers).
If this happens, Vagrant halts the provisioning. However, this package is not really needed in newer Debian releases (such as Ubuntu 14.04).
This small patch checks if the linux-image-extra-`uname -r` package exists, and it will install it if it does. In either case, it will continue provisioning.
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.
Starting with vagrant 1.7.3
(commit 1152b4e1df) we don't
save the command to be executed in the file anymore, but we send
it as a parameter, thus the back tick makes things worse.
puppet_server provisioner fails with Puppet Collection 1 with the
following error:
```bash
==> default: Running provisioner: puppet_server...
The `puppet` binary appears not to be in the PATH of the guest. This
could be because the PATH is not properly setup or perhaps Puppet is not
installed on this guest. Puppet provisioning can not continue without
Puppet properly installed.
```
The problem demonstrated in #6065 is that a string has incorrectly been
encoded with US-ASCII even though it contains invalid US-ASCII byte
sequences (any byte with the most significant bit on is invalid in the
US-ASCII encoding).
The thing about doing newline normalization is that it is not actually
sensitive to the presence of US-ASCII byte sequenzes. Additionally, it
is very unlikely that a user will ever be using an encoding where \r\n
is not encoded the same as it would be in ASCII.
This patch first tries the existing method of normalizing the newlines
in the provided script file, if that fails for any reason it force
encodes the string to ASCII-8BIT (which allows the most significant bit
to be on in any individual byte) and then performs the substitution in
that byte space.
This allows Vagrant to calculate if a container's arguments (such as the run
arguments) have changed in the Vagrantfile since the original run.
Fixes GH-3055
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.

This allows the display of friendly output to the user when we think an
important action should be labeled a certain way. This makes vagrant
output a lot more useful when many inline shell provisioners are
present.
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
When using the salt provisioner with verbose=true, most lines read with an extra newline:
```
[INFO ] Syncing modules for environment 'base'
[INFO ] Loading cache from salt://_modules, for base)
```
because the line read has a newline, and emitting the log entry again includes an additional newline.
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.
