- Update to release 1.4
- Highlighted new features:
+ Added do-until feature, which can be used to retry a failed task a
specified number of times with a delay in-between the retries.
+ Added failed_when option for tasks, which can be used to specify
logical statements that make it easier to determine when a task has
failed, or to make it easier to ignore certain non-zero return
codes for some commands.
+ Added the "subelement" lookup plugin, which allows iteration of the
keys of a dictionary or items in a list.
+ Added the capability to use either paramiko or ssh for the inital
setup connection of an accelerated playbook.
+ Automatically provide advice on common parser errors users
encounter.
+ Deprecation warnings are now shown for legacy features:
when_integer/etc, only_if, include+with_items, etc. Can be disabled
in ansible.cfg
+ The system will now provide helpful tips around possible YAML
syntax errors increasing ease of use for new users.
+ warnings are now shown for using {{ foo }} in loops and
conditionals, and suggest leaving the variable expressions bare as
per docs.
+ The roles search path is now configurable in
ansible.cfg. 'roles_path' in the config setting.
+ Includes with parameters can now be done like roles for
consistency: - { include: song.yml, year:1984, song:'jump' }
+ The name of each role is now shown before each task if roles are
being used
+ Adds a "var=" option to the debug module for debugging variable
data. "debug: var=hostvars['hostname']" and "debug: var=foo" are
all valid syntax.
+ Variables in {{ format }} can be used as references even if they
are structured data
+ Can force binding of accelerate to ipv6 ports.
+ the apt module will auto-install python-apt if not present rather
than requiring a manual installation
+ the copy module is now recursive if the local 'src' parameter is a
directory.
+ syntax checks now scan included task and variable files as well as
main files

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Oct 31 17:26:44 UTC 2013 - lars@linux-schulserver.de
- update to 1.3.4:
Highlighted new features:
+ accelerated mode: An enhanced fireball mode that requires zero
bootstrapping and fewer requirements plus adds capabilities
like sudo commands.
+ role defaults: Allows roles to define a set of variables at the
lowest priority. These variables can be overridden by any
other variable.
+ new /etc/ansible/facts.d allows JSON or INI-style facts to be
provided from the remote node, and supports executable fact
programs in this dir. Files must end in *.fact.
+ added the ability to make undefined template variables raise
errors (see ansible.cfg)
+ (DOCS PENDING) sudo: True/False and sudo_user: True/False can be
set at include and role level
+ added changed_when: (expression) which allows overriding whether
a result is changed or not and can work with registered expressions
+ --extra-vars can now take a file as input, e.g., "-e @filename"
and can also be formatted as YAML
+ external inventory scripts may now return host variables in one
pass, which allows them to be much more efficient for large
numbers of hosts
+ if --forks exceeds the numbers of hosts, it will be automatically
reduced. Set forks to 0 and you get "as many forks as I have
hosts" out of the box.
+ enabled error_on_undefined_vars by default, which will make
errors in playbooks more obvious
+ role dependencies -- one role can now pull in another, with
parameters of its own.
+ added the ability to have tasks execute even during a check
run (always_run).
+ added the ability to set the maximum failure percentage for a
group of hosts.
