Ansible FQCN converter

Update ansible tasks, playbooks, handlers etc. to use fully qualified module names (even for ansible builtins) by searching for all known modules that are not in fqcn notation and replacing them with the fqcn name.

In some cases the replacement might be ambiguous, so a warning will be issued (and by default added as a comment to the changed files; see -W arg). On ambiguous module names the first matching FQCN in alphabetical order will be used, but ansible native modules (ansible.builtin, ansible.posix, ansible.utils, ...) will have precedence on ambiguous module names. Example diff:

 - name: test user ... expect buildin
-  user:
+  # possible ambiguous replacement: user : ansible.builtin.user | awx.awx.user | inspur.sm.user | sensu.sensu_go.user | theforeman.foreman.user
+  ansible.builtin.user:
     name: test
     password: '!'

The ansible files should be linted and valid yaml files! Esp. the following ansible-lint tags should be covered:

no-tabs
yaml

HowTo

Clone this repo to a convenient place:

git clone https://github.com/zerwes/ansible-fqcn-converter.git
Ensure the python script is executable:

chmod 755 ansible-fqcn-converter/fqcn-fixer.py
Optional: install collections you miss in the fqcn.yml file and re-create the fqcn-map-file ( ⚠️ takes about 40 minutes ⚠️ ):

cd ansible-fqcn-converter
ansible-galaxy collection install ...
./fqcn-fixer.py --update-fqcn-map-file

Optional: Go to the desired directory containing the ansible roles/playbooks etc. and execute:

ansible-lint .

and ensure the yaml syntax ist OK
Go to the desired directory containing the ansible roles/playbooks etc. and execute:

$PATH_TO_ansible-fqcn-converter/fqcn-fixer.py
If the diff displayed seems OK to you, let the script modify your files:

( ❗ it is your job and responsability to inspect the diff vigilant and alerted; use at your own risk ❗)

$PATH_TO_ansible-fqcn-converter/fqcn-fixer.py -w
Run the latest ansible-lint . and enjoy missing the Error: fqcn-builtins Use FQCN for builtin actions.

usage

usage: fqcn-fixer.py [-h] [-d DIRECTORY] [-e FILEEXTENSIONS [FILEEXTENSIONS ...]]
                     [--exclude EXCLUDE_PATHS [EXCLUDE_PATHS ...]] [--do-not-use-default-exclude]
                     [-c CONFIG] [-w] [-W] [-b BACKUPEXTENSION] [-x] [-m FQCNMAPFILE] [-u]

simple script to fix the fqcn module names

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -d DIRECTORY, --directory DIRECTORY
                        directory to search files (default: current directory)
  -e FILEEXTENSIONS [FILEEXTENSIONS ...], --extensions FILEEXTENSIONS [FILEEXTENSIONS ...]
                        list of file extensions to use (default: 'yml', 'yaml')
  --exclude EXCLUDE_PATHS [EXCLUDE_PATHS ...]
                        path(s) to directories or files to skip.
  -f FILTER_PATH [FILTER_PATH ...], --filter FILTER_PATH [FILTER_PATH ...]
                        path(s)/file(s) to limit processing to.
  --do-not-use-default-exclude
                        do not use the default excludes
  -i IGNORE_MODULE [IGNORE_MODULE ...], --ignore-module IGNORE_MODULE [IGNORE_MODULE ...]
                        list of modules names to ignore
  -c CONFIG, --config CONFIG
                        read some cfg args from this file (.ansible-lint can be used)
  -w, --write-files     write back changed files
  -W, --no-write-warnings
                        do not write warnings as comments to files and diff
  -b BACKUPEXTENSION, --backup-extension BACKUPEXTENSION
                        backup extension to use (default: .bak)
  -x, --no-diff         do not print a diff after parsing a file (default: print it)
  -m FQCNMAPFILE, --fqcn-map-file FQCNMAPFILE
                        yaml file to use for the fqcn map
                        (default: fqcn.yml in the directory of the script)
  -u, --update-fqcn-map-file
                        update the fqcn-map-file

config

currently implemented config settings:

ignore_modules : list of module names to ignore
exclude_paths : list of paths to ignore

caveats

⚠️ you should exclude VAR files, molecule and other CI/CD files etc.

notes

collections

The script uses all collections installed (in the current directory) to build a translation map (aka. fqcn-map-file).

If the file is not found (or --update-fqcn-map-file is in use), the file defined by --fqcn-map-file will be created. (⚠️ this wounds time ⚠️)

exclude paths

You can use a .ansible-lint config file as input to -c in order to define EXCLUDE_PATHS

tricks

parse just one file: use -e $FILENAME
