For example, `ANSIBLE_COLLECTIONS_ON_ANSIBLE_VERSION_MISMATCH=0` will now cause an error (valid choices are 'ignore', 'warn' or 'error'). * The ``ansible-galaxy`` command now uses ``resolvelib`` for resolving dependencies. In most cases this should not make a user-facing difference beyond being more performant, but we note it here for posterity and completeness. +* Python ``module_utils`` imports may now be marked as optional during the module payload build by wrapping the ``import`` statement in a ``try`` or ``if`` block. This allows modules to use ``module_utils`` that may not be present in all versions of Ansible or a collection, and to perform arbitrary recovery or fallback actions during module runtime. + Deprecated ========== @@ -84,6 +86,25 @@ Porting custom scripts No notable changes +Porting Guide for v4.0.0a2 +========================== + +Major Changes +------------- + +Ansible-core +~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +- AnsibleModule - use ``ArgumentSpecValidator`` class for validating argument spec and remove private methods related to argument spec validation.
