Hi,
About, #1788
I’m now using a dict in order to pass/update variables across functions.
(Like args/kwargs in many modules like “mount”).
but i have a question :
https://github.com/ansible/ansible/blob/devel/lib/ansible/module_common.py#L604
def exit_json(self, **kwargs):
def fail_json(self, **kwargs):
Thoses functions take a second parameter '**kwargs) and call :
self.add_path_info(kwargs)
Which do (just a part) :
def add_path_info(self, kwargs):
path = kwargs.get(‘path’, kwargs.get(‘dest’, None))
if path is None:
return kwargs
Must module developer HAVE TO not use “path” or “dest” key if is not wanted that state, mode, owner, etc to be added to kwargs dict ?
Or should we can think a way to disable this automatic treatment if not wanted ?
Thanks for your time.
