2.0.0:
changes:
breaking_changes:
- Removed vendored ipaddress package from collection. If you use ansible_collections.ansible.netcommon.plugins.module_utils.compat.ipaddress
in your collection, you will need to change this to import ipaddress instead.
If your content using ipaddress supports Python 2.7, you will additionally
need to make sure that the user has the ipaddress package installed. Please
refer to https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/dev_guide/developing_modules_best_practices.html#importing-and-using-shared-code
to see how to safely import external packages that may be missing from the
user's system A backport of ipaddress for Python 2.7 is available at https://pypi.org/project/ipaddress/
bugfixes:

are moved to ansible.utils collection (https://github.com/ansible-collections/ansible.netcommon/pull/182
https://github.com/ansible-collections/ansible.utils/pull/28)

based on the values of the ``password`` and ``private_key_file`` options passed
to network_cli. This option can now be set explicitly, and the automatic setting

- Copied the cliconf, httpapi, netconf, and terminal base plugins and NetworkConnectionBase
into netcommon. These base plugins may now be imported from netcommmon instead
of ansible if a collection depends on netcommon versions newer than this version,
allowing features and bugfixes to flow to those collections without upgrading
ansible.
- Make ansible_network_os as optional param for httpapi connection plugin.

- No activity on the transport's channel was triggering a socket.timeout() after
30 secs, even if persistent_command_timeout is set to a higher value. This
patch fixes it.
minor_changes:
- Redirected ipaddr filters to ansible.utils (https://github.com/ansible-collections/ansible.netcommon/pull/359).
- httpapi - new parameter retries in send() method limits the number of times
a request is retried when a HTTP error that can be worked around is encountered.
The default is to retry indefinitely to maintain old behavior, but this default
may change in a later breaking release.

will continue to work to reference the module in its new location, but this
redirect will be removed in a future release

bugfixes:
- httpapi - ``send()`` method no longer applied leftover kwargs to ``open_url()``.
Fix applies those arguments as intended (https://github.com/ansible-collections/ansible.netcommon/pull/524).
- network_cli - network cli connection avoids traceback when using invalid user
- network_cli - when receiving longer responses with libssh, parts of the response
were sometimes repeated. The response is now returned as it is received (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.routeros/issues/132).
- network_resource - fix a potential UnboundLocalError if the module fails to
import a Resource Module. (https://github.com/ansible-collections/ansible.netcommon/pull/513)
- restconf - creation of new resources is no longer erroneously forced to use
POST. (https://github.com/ansible-collections/ansible.netcommon/issues/502)
minor_changes:
- libssh - add ``config_file`` option to specify an alternate SSH config file
to use.
- parse_cli - add support for multiple matches inside a block by adding new
dictionary key to result
- telnet - add ``stdout`` and ``stdout_lines`` to module output.
- telnet - add support for regexes to ``login_prompt`` and ``password_prompt``.
- telnet - apply ``timeout`` to command prompts.
