ansible-lint broken after upgrading ansible to ansible 2.7.6+dfsg-1
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

ansible-lint is not working complaining about ansible module missing:

birin@librem13:~$ ansible-lint
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/ansible-lint", line 11, in <module>
    load_entry_point('ansible-lint==3.4.20', 'console_scripts', 'ansible-lint')()

    from ansible import constants
ImportError: No module named ansible

Looks like the new ansible 2.7.6+dfsg-1 is using python3 while ansible-lint uses python2. Therefore when 'ansible-lint' looks for ansible libraries under Python2 directories it does not find them:

Description-en: Configuration management, deployment, and task execution system
 Ansible is a radically simple model-driven configuration management,
 multi-node deployment, and remote task execution system. Ansible works
 over SSH and does not require any software or daemons to be installed
 on remote nodes. Extension modules can be written in any language and
 are transferred to managed machines automatically.

 Ansible playbooks express configuration, deployment and orchestration in YAML

  or a set of steps in a general IT process.

 ansible-lint checks Ansible playbooks for practices and behaviour that could
 potentially be improved.

A workaround is to use ansible-lint in a virtualenv:

birin@librem13:~$ virtualenv --python=python3 ansible_python3
Already using interpreter /usr/bin/python3
Using base prefix '/usr'
New python executable in /home/birin/ansible_python3/bin/python3
Also creating executable in /home/birin/ansible_python3/bin/python
Installing setuptools, pkg_resources, pip, wheel...done.
birin@librem13:~$ source ansible_python3/bin/activate
(ansible_python3) birin@librem13:~$ pip install ansible-lint

(ansible_python3) birin@librem13:~$ ansible-lint 
Usage: ansible-lint [options] playbook.yml [playbook2 ...]

Options:
  --version             show program's version number and exit
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -L                    list all the rules
  -q                    quieter, although not silent output
  -p                    parseable output in the format of pep8
  --parseable-severity  parseable output including severity of rule
  -r RULESDIR           specify one or more rules directories using one or
                        more -r arguments. Any -r flags override the default
                        rules in
                        /home/birin/ansible_python3/lib/python3.7/site-
                        packages/ansiblelint/rules, unless -R is also used.
  -R                    Use default rules in
                        /home/birin/ansible_python3/lib/python3.7/site-
                        packages/ansiblelint/rules in addition to any extra
                        rules directories specified with -r. There is no need
                        to specify this if no -r flags are used
  -t TAGS               only check rules whose id/tags match these values
  -T                    list all the tags
  -v                    Increase verbosity level
  -x SKIP_LIST          only check rules whose id/tags do not match these
                        values
  --nocolor             disable colored output
  --force-color         Try force colored output (relying on ansible's code)
  --exclude=EXCLUDE_PATHS
                        path to directories or files to skip. This option is
                        repeatable.
  -c C                  Specify configuration file to use.  Defaults to
                        ".ansible-lint"

Please notice that you can use Python2 or Python3 for your virtualenv... I just happened to choose Python3 for the ticket example.

Cheers,
Birin

Event Timeline

This was reported in Debian recently: http://bugs.debian.org/921030

Seems it was fixed today: https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/ansible-lint (NEWS section in the middle)

That means it should enter PureOS soon, automagically...

birin.sanchez claimed this task.

4.1.0+dfsg.1-1 is now in PureOS so the issue is gone.
