This updates the file state and execution modules to use
unicode_literals. Since the serializers and the cmd module are touched
by the file state/exec module, those are also updated here, as well as
the cmd state module, for good measure.
Additionally, I found that salt.utils.data.decode_dict (and decode_list)
are misnamed for what they actually do. Since they *encode* the
contents, the functions should be named encode_dict and encode_list,
respectively. And we also should have counterparts which actually
decode, so I've added them. The compatibility functions from salt.utils
still use the old "decode" names to preserve backward compatibility, but
they now invoke the renamed "encode" functions in salt.utils.data. Note
that this means that the compatibility functions
salt.utils.decode_dict/list, and their cognates in salt.utils.data now
do different things, but since the move to salt.utils.data is also
happening in the Oxygen release this is as good a time as any to correct
this oversight.
I've updated the jinja filter docs to include information on the renamed
jinja filters, and also added a section on jinja filter renaming to the
Oxygen release notes. There was another filter that I renamed during the
process of moving functions from salt.utils which I did not properly
document in the release notes, so this is now included along with the
others.
Much Improved Support for Docker Networking
===========================================
The `docker_network.present` state has undergone a full rewrite, which
includes the following improvements:
Full API Support for Network Management
---------------------------------------
The improvements made to input handling in the
`docker_container.running` state for 2017.7.0 have now been expanded to
docker_network.present`. This brings with it full support for all
tunable configuration arguments.
Custom Subnets
--------------
Custom subnets can now be configured. Both IPv4 and mixed IPv4/IPv6
networks are supported.
Network Configuration in :py:func:`docker_container.running` States
-------------------------------------------------------------------
It is now possible to configure static IPv4/IPv6 addresses, as well as
links and labels.
Improved Handling of Images from Custom Registries
==================================================
Rather than attempting to parse the tag from the passed image name, Salt
will now resolve that tag down to an image ID and use that ID instead.
Due to this change, there are some backward-incompatible changes to
image management. See below for a full list of these changes.
Backward-incompatible Changes to Docker Image Management
--------------------------------------------------------
Passing image names to the following functions must now be done using separate
`repository` and `tag` arguments:
- `docker.build`
- `docker.commit`
- `docker.import`
- `docker.load`
- `docker.tag`
- `docker.sls_build`
Additionally, the `tag` argument must now be explicitly passed to the
`docker_image.present` state, unless the image is being pulled from a
docker registry.
