3.11.0

Release Summary

This is a minor release of the community.mysql collection.
This changelog contains all changes to the modules and plugins in this collection that have been made after the previous release.

Minor Changes

• mysql_info - adds the count of tables for each database to the returned values. It is possible to exclude this new field using the db_table_count exclusion filter. (#691)

Bugfixes

• mysql_user,mysql_role - The sql_mode ANSI_QUOTES affects how the modules mysql_user and mysql_role compare the existing privileges with the configured privileges, as well as decide whether double quotes or backticks should be used in the GRANT statements. Pointing out in issue 671, the modules mysql_user and mysql_role allow users to enable/disable ANSI_QUOTES in session variable (within a DB session, the session variable always overwrites the global one). But due to the issue, the modules do not check for ANSI_MODE in the session variable, instead, they only check in the GLOBAL one.That behavior is not only limiting the users' flexibility, but also not allowing users to explicitly disable ANSI_MODE to work around such bugs like https://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=115953. (#671)

collection that have been made after the previous release.

Minor Changes

• mysql_info - Add tls_requires returned value for the users_info filter (#628).

• mysql_replication - Adds support for CHANGE REPLICATION SOURCE TO statement (#635).

• mysql_replication - Improve detection of IsReplica and IsPrimary by inspecting the dictionary returned from the SQL query instead of relying on variable types. This ensures compatibility with changes in the connector or the output of SHOW REPLICA STATUS and SHOW MASTER STATUS, allowing for easier maintenance if these change in the future.
• mysql_user - Add salt parameter to generate static hash for caching_sha2_password and sha256_password plugins.

Breaking Changes / Porting Guide

• collection - support of mysqlclient connector is deprecated - use PyMySQL connector instead! We will stop testing against it in collection version 4.0.0 and remove the related code in 5.0.0 (#654).
• mysql_info - The users_info filter returned variable plugin_auth_string contains the hashed password and it's misleading, it will be removed from community.mysql 4.0.0. Use the plugin_hash_string return value instead (#629).

Bugfixes

• mysql_info - Add plugin_hash_string to users_info filter's output. The existing plugin_auth_string contained the hashed password and thus is missleading, it will be removed from community.mysql 4.0.0. (#629).
• mysql_user - Added a warning to update_password's on_new_username option if multiple accounts with the same username but different passwords exist (#642).
• mysql_user - Fix tls_requires not removing SSL and X509 when sets as empty (#628).
