Bolt - 3.22.0

(2022-03-28)

New features

• Warn when bolt-plugin.json is found
  (BOLT-1572)

Bolt will now warn if, while loading plugins, it finds a
bolt-plugin.json file in a module. The correct filename is
bolt_plugin.json, and Bolt will advise renaming the file in order for
it to be loaded.

• Configure path to the rerun file
  (#3049)

You can now configure the path to Bolt's rerun file at the project
level with the new rerunfile config option.

• Option to parse data as JSON looked up with env_var plugin
  (#3072)

The env_var plugin now accepts a json option to allow
the plugin to use data encoded as JSON stored in environment
variables.

Bug fixes

• Make native-ssh more portable
  (#3069)

Updates native-ssh so setting batch-mode: false omits -o BatchMode= and adds a double-dash separater -- before commands to
execute.

• Support resolving facts from nested arrays with puppetdb plugin
  (#3065)

Previously, indexing into arrays when resolving values from puppetdb
facts using the target_mapping for the puppetdb plugin did not work.
This is now possible by specifying the index of the array, for example:
facts.my_fact_array.0.nested_value.
