- persistent_state represents whether a profile is stored on disk
- persistent_state defaults to 'present'
- When there is no type specified for the profile, it is enough for a
profile with the same name to be stored on the target's systems file
system. Otherwise the role will fail
- state now represents the runtime state and can be up, down or
unspecified
- translate the state definitions into actions that will be performed.
The actions correspond to the previous states.
- add the possibility to write unit tests to only verify parts of the
resulting connection dictionary to only check for the expected changes
instead of the full connection that can also contain unrelated defaults
* by default ```name``` is used as ```interface_name```
* if ```interface_name``` is set to the empty string, it will not be set
* if ```mac``` is specified, ```interface_name``` defaults to not being set
This fixes#41
Allow to take down connections regardless of whether they are defined in
the configuration. It should be enough that the connection is defined on
the system.
Without it, we unintentionally declared 3 global variables
(connections, cmd, run_env_ansible). This was not intended,
and results in possibly wrong behavior by accidentally using
the global variables.
This fixes a bug in the `network_connections` module when using the
`initscripts` provider and encountering a connection with `autoconnect`
set to false. It fails to write any `ONBOOT=` line to the interface's
`ifcfg-*` file, which RHEL treats as equivalent to `ONBOOT=yes`.
This explicitly sets `ONBOOT` for all interfaces defined, instead of
relying on what RHEL considers its default value.
This fixes this exception (issue #40):

Bytestrings need to be decoded. Just use UTF-8 here, since everyone
should be using it. Also add a test case to catch this. The exception
was:
TypeError: cannot use a string pattern on a bytes-like object
Like for 'bond' and 'ethernet', don't merge the infiniband specific property
in the top-level. Instead, nest them under 'infiniband'.
This duplicates and deprecates the existing infiniband settings, but the old
parameters are still supported.
Like for 'bond' and 'ethernet', don't merge the vlan specific property
in the top-level. Instead, nest them under 'vlan'.
This duplicates and deprecates the existing 'vlan_id', but the old
parameter is still supported.
run() supports a --check mode (DRY_RUN) and a real mode,
where the real mode consists of a PRE_RUN that only simulates
the steps and a REAL_RUN.
Actualy changes can only happen during REAL_RUN (and we pretend
that they happen during DRY_RUN).
Fix handling of the change flag, is was broken previously.
Also, we need to set the is-changed flag to True before actually
invoking the action. Because, if we fail, we might fail_json()
right away, and need to correct changed flag.
Now, that we only create the AnsibleUtil instance when we already
know that we run under ansible (not from unit tests), we can avoid
initializing the AnsibleModule lazily.
