Ansible 6 is based on Ansible-core 2.13.

We suggest you read this page along with the Ansible 6 Changelog to understand what updates you may need to make.

Playbook

  • Templating - You can no longer perform arithmetic and concatenation operations outside of the jinja template. The following statement will need to be rewritten to produce [1, 2]:
- name: Prior to 2.13
  debug:
    msg: '[1] + {{ [2] }}'

- name: 2.13 and forward
  debug:
    msg: '{{ [1] + [2] }}'
  • The return value of the __repr__ method of an undefined variable represented by the AnsibleUndefined object changed. {{ '%r'|format(undefined_variable) }} returns AnsibleUndefined(hint=None, obj=missing, name='undefined_variable') in 2.13 as opposed to just AnsibleUndefined in versions 2.12 and prior.
  • The finalize method is no longer exposed in the globals for use in templating. To convert None to an empty string the following expression can be used: {{ value if value is not none }}.

Command Line

Modules

  • To use ansible-core 2.13 for module execution, you must use Python 2 version 2.7 or Python 3 version 3.5 or newer. Any code utilizing ansible.module_utils.basic will not function with lower Python versions.

Modules removed

The following modules no longer exist:

Noteworthy module changes

No notable changes

Breaking Changes

  • ansible.module_utils.urls.fetch_url will now return the captured HTTPError exception as r. HTTPError is a response like object that can offer more information to module authors. Modules should rely on info['status'] >= 400 to determine if there was a failure, instead of using r is None or catching AttributeError when attempting r.read().

Plugins

Networking

Porting Guide for v6.7.0

Known Issues

community.routeros

  • api_modify - when limits for entries in queue tree are defined as human readable - for example 25M -, the configuration will be correctly set in ROS, but the module will indicate the item is changed on every run even when there was no change done. This is caused by the ROS API which returns the number in bytes - for example 25000000 (which is inconsistent with the CLI behavior). In order to mitigate that, the limits have to be defined in bytes (those will still appear as human readable in the ROS CLI) (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.routeros/pull/131).
  • api_modify, api_info - routing ospf area, routing ospf area range, routing ospf instance, routing ospf interface-template paths are not fully implemented for ROS6 due to the significant changes between ROS6 and ROS7 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.routeros/pull/131).

Major Changes

cisco.meraki

  • meraki_mr_l7_firewall - New module
  • meraki_webhook_payload_template - New module

community.zabbix

  • all modules are opting away from zabbix-api and using httpapi ansible.netcommon plugin. We will support zabbix-api for backwards compatibility until next major release. See our README.md for more information about how to migrate
  • zabbix_agent and zabbix_proxy roles are opting away from zabbix-api and use httpapi ansible.netcommon plugin. We will support zabbix-api for backwards compatibility until next major release. See our README.md for more information about how to migrate

containers.podman

  • New become plugin - podman_unshare
  • Podman generate systemd module

fortinet.fortimanager

  • Fix compatibility issue for ansible 2.9.x and ansible-base 2.10.x.
  • support Ansible changelogs.

fortinet.fortios

  • Support FortiOS v7.0.6, v7.0.7, v7.0.8, v7.2.1, v7.2.2.

Deprecated Features

community.general

  • Please note that some tools, like the VScode plugin (https://github.com/ansible/vscode-ansible/issues/573), or ansible-doc --list --type module, suggest to replace the correct FQCNs for modules and actions in community.general with internal names that have more than three components. For example, community.general.ufw is suggested to be replaced by community.general.system.ufw. While these longer names do work, they are considered internal names by the collection and are subject to change and be removed at all time. They will be removed in community.general 6.0.0 and result in deprecation messages. Avoid using these internal names, and use general three-component FQCNs (community.general.<name_of_module>) instead (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5373).

Porting Guide for v6.6.0

Added Collections

  • lowlydba.sqlserver (version 1.0.4)

Known Issues

community.routeros

  • The community.routeros.command module claims to support check mode. Since it cannot judge whether the commands executed modify state or not, this behavior is incorrect. Since this potentially breaks existing playbooks, we will not change this behavior until community.routeros 3.0.0.

community.aws

  • community.aws collection - The community.aws collection has dropped support for botocore<1.19.0 and boto3<1.16.0.

While we take no active measures to prevent usage, we will remove a lot of compatibility code and other compatility measures that will effectively prevent using most content from this collection with Ansible 2.9, and some content of this collection with ansible-base 2.10. Both Ansible 2.9 and ansible-base 2.10 will very soon be End of Life and if you are still using them, you should consider upgrading to ansible-core 2.11 or later as soon as possible (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4548).

community.mysql

  • The community.mysql collection no longer supports Ansible 2.9 and ansible-base 2.10.

Both will very soon be End of Life and if you are still using them, you should consider upgrading to the latest Ansible / ansible-core 2.11 or later as soon as possible (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.mysql/pull/343).

community.network

  • The community.network collection no longer supports Ansible 2.9 and ansible-base 2.10. While we take no active measures to prevent usage, we will remove compatibility code and other compatility measures that will effectively prevent using most content from this collection with Ansible 2.9, and some content of this collection with ansible-base 2.10. Both Ansible 2.9 and ansible-base 2.10 will very soon be End of Life and if you are still using them, you should consider upgrading to ansible-core 2.11 or later as soon as possible (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.network/pull/426).

community.postgresql

  • The community.postgresql collection no longer supports Ansible 2.9 and ansible-base 2.10. While we take no active measures to prevent usage and there are no plans to introduce incompatible code to the modules, we will stop testing against Ansible 2.9 and ansible-base 2.10.

  • postgresql_privs - the usage_on_types feature have been deprecated and will be removed in community.postgresql 3.0.0. Please use the type option with the type value to explicitly grant/revoke privileges on types (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.postgresql/issues/207).
  • postgresql_query - the path_to_script and as_single_query options as well as the query_list and query_all_results return values have been deprecated and will be removed in community.postgresql 3.0.0. Please use the community.postgresql.postgresql_script module to execute statements from scripts (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.postgresql/issues/189).
  • postgresql_query - the default value of the as_single_query option changes to yes. If the related behavior of your tasks where the module is involved changes, please adjust the parameter’s value correspondingly (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.postgresql/issues/85).

Removed Features

  • The community.kubernetes collection has been removed from Ansible 6. It has been deprecated since Ansible 4.2, and version 2.0.0 included since Ansible 5 is only a set of deprecated redirects from community.kubernetes to kubernetes.core.

  • The community.kubevirt collection has been removed from Ansible 6. It has not been working with the community.kubernetes collection included since Ansible 5.0.0, and unfortunately nobody managed to adjust the collection to work with kubernetes.core >= 2.0.0. If you need to use this collection, you need to manually install community.kubernetes < 2.0.0 together with community.kubevirt with ansible-galaxy collection install community.kubevirt 'community.kubernetes:<2.0.0' (https://github.com/ansible-community/community-topics/issues/92).

Deprecated Features

  • The collection community.sap has been renamed to community.sap_libs. For now both collections are included in Ansible. The content in community.sap will be replaced with deprecated redirects to the new collection in Ansible 7.0.0, and these redirects will eventually be removed from Ansible. Please update your FQCNs for community.sap.

Ansible-core

  • ansible-core - Remove support for Python 2.6.
  • ansible-test - Remove support for Python 2.6.
  • ssh connection plugin option scp_if_ssh in favor of ssh_transfer_method.

amazon.aws

  • ec2_instance - The default value for `instance_type` has been deprecated, in the future release you must set an instance_type or a launch_template (https://github.com/ansible-collections/amazon.aws/pull/587).
  • module_utils - support for the original AWS SDK boto has been deprecated in favour of the boto3/botocore SDK. All boto based modules have either been deprecated or migrated to botocore, and the remaining support code in module_utils will be removed in release 4.0.0 of the amazon.aws collection. Any modules outside of the amazon.aws and community.aws collections based on the boto library will need to be migrated to the boto3/botocore libraries (https://github.com/ansible-collections/amazon.aws/pull/575).

cisco.ios

  • Deprecates lldp module.
  • ios_acls - Deprecated fragment attribute added boolean alternate as enable_fragment.

cisco.nxos

  • Deprecated nxos_snmp_host module.
  • Deprecated nxos_snmp_location module.
  • Deprecated nxos_snmp_traps module.
  • Deprecated nxos_snmp_user module.

community.docker

  • Support for Ansible 2.9 and ansible-base 2.10 is deprecated, and will be removed in the next major release (community.docker 3.0.0). Some modules might still work with these versions afterwards, but we will no longer keep compatibility code that was needed to support them (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.docker/pull/361).
  • The dependency on docker-compose for Execution Environments is deprecated and will be removed in community.docker 3.0.0. The Python docker-compose library is unmaintained and can cause dependency issues. You can manually still install it in an Execution Environment when needed (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.docker/pull/373).
  • Various modules - the default of tls_hostname that was supposed to be removed in community.docker 2.0.0 will now be removed in version 3.0.0 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.docker/pull/362).
  • docker_stack - the return values out and err that were supposed to be removed in community.docker 2.0.0 will now be removed in version 3.0.0 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.docker/pull/362).

community.general

  • ansible_galaxy_install - deprecated support for ansible 2.9 and ansible-base 2.10 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4601).
  • dig lookup plugin - the DLV record type has been decommissioned in 2017 and support for it will be removed from community.general 6.0.0 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4618).
  • gem - the default of the norc option has been deprecated and will change to true in community.general 6.0.0. Explicitly specify a value to avoid a deprecation warning (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4517).
  • mail callback plugin - not specifying sender is deprecated and will be disallowed in community.general 6.0.0 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4140).
  • module_helper module utils - deprecated the attribute ModuleHelper.VarDict (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/3801).
  • nmcli - deprecate default hairpin mode for a bridge. This so we can change it to false in community.general 7.0.0, as this is also the default in nmcli (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4334).
  • pacman - from community.general 5.0.0 on, the changed status of update_cache will no longer be ignored if name or upgrade is specified. To keep the old behavior, add something like register: result and changed_when: result.packages | length > 0 to your task (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4329).
  • proxmox inventory plugin - the current default true of the want_proxmox_nodes_ansible_host option has been deprecated. The default will change to false in community.general 6.0.0. To keep the current behavior, explicitly set want_proxmox_nodes_ansible_host to true in your inventory configuration. We suggest to already switch to the new behavior by explicitly setting it to false, and by using compose: to set ansible_host to the correct value. See the examples in the plugin documentation for details (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4466).
  • vmadm - deprecated module parameter debug that was not used anywhere (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4580).

community.hashi_vault

  • Support for Ansible 2.9 and ansible-base 2.10 is deprecated, and will be removed in the next major release (community.hashi_vault 3.0.0) next spring (https://github.com/ansible-community/community-topics/issues/50, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.hashi_vault/issues/189).
  • aws_iam_login auth method - the aws_iam_login method has been renamed to aws_iam. The old name will be removed in collection version 3.0.0. Until then both names will work, and a warning will be displayed when using the old name (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.hashi_vault/pull/193).
  • token_validate options - the shared auth option token_validate will change its default from True to False in community.hashi_vault version 4.0.0. The vault_login lookup and module will keep the default value of True (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.hashi_vault/issues/248).
  • token_validate options - the shared auth option token_validate will change its default from true to false in community.hashi_vault version 4.0.0. The vault_login lookup and module will keep the default value of true (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.hashi_vault/issues/248).

community.network

  • Support for Ansible 2.9 and ansible-base 2.10 is deprecated, and will be removed in the next major release (community.network 4.0.0) this spring. While most content will probably still work with ansible-base 2.10, we will remove symbolic links for modules and action plugins, which will make it impossible to use them with Ansible 2.9 anymore. Please use community.network 3.x.y with Ansible 2.9 and ansible-base 2.10, as these releases will continue to support Ansible 2.9 and ansible-base 2.10 even after they are End of Life (https://github.com/ansible-community/community-topics/issues/50, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.network/pull/382).

purestorage.flasharray

  • purefa_sso - Deprecated in favor of M(purefa_admin). Will be removed in Collection 2.0
