Summary of recent additions to Ansible 1.3

I’ve just finished up merging a great round of pull requests – there are still some more left in queue not quite ready to merge just yet, so if you are in that batch, check your email – there may be one or two I still have yet to test yet.

Anyway, lots of new good stuff!

See the changelog here:

https://github.com/ansible/ansible/blob/devel/CHANGELOG.md

New & recent highlights:

  • 4 modules for managing Arista networking hardware

  • inventory scripts and provisioning modules for Linode and Digital Ocean

  • a new ‘stat’ module for querying remote file attributes, for use with ‘register’

  • a new module for manipulating htpasswd files

  • –ask-sudo-pass or --sudo-user to ansible playbook does not assume every task is using sudo, only those that use sudo: True

  • the git module now supports submodules

Help testing new additions is definitely welcome and please keep the goodness coming!
