How to configure Vyatta router using ansible 2.0 version?

I am trying to configure vyatta router using modules provided by ansible 2.0 version. However, the commands such as “configure” are not supported by shell module as it is the configure command is not executed from /bin/sh.
I am aware of the fact that ansible latest version 2.2 has a “vyos” module which supports vyatta configuration. But, what can I do to make it possible for me to configure vyatta router using modules provided in 2.0 version?

The answer today is to use 2.2. There is no plans to backport the vyos modules to 2.0
