- 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
- Amend and add files to run integration tests against the provider that
was not autodetected, too.
- Add check to ensure that all integration tests run against both
providers
- Run black check for all python scripts
- Use initscripts as provider except when NetworkManager is running
- Rename network_provider_default to network_provider_os_default, since
it contains the default based on the OS
* 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):
