Confict between `inline-env-var` and `command-instead-of-shell`

[ioah86]

Summary

It appears that the remediation to one issue is causing the rise of a different one.
For the Rule inline-env-var in the current version,
the recommended correction is using ansible.builtin.shell instead of ansible.builtin.command. But the rule command-instead-of-shell requires to use command. Hence, the recommendations should not use ansible.builtin.shell for the correct code or at least include an example using purely ansible.builtin.command.

Issue Type

• Bug Report

OS / ENVIRONMENT

N/A

STEPS TO REPRODUCE

Read the documentation for inline-env-var and then also read the documentation for command-instead-of-shell. The "fixes" for inline-env-var violate command-instead-of-shell.

Desired Behavior

The recommended and documented fix for one issue should not violate another issue.

Actual Behavior

The recommended and documented fix for one issue should violates another issue.

This is mostly an incomplete documentation issue because inline-env-var can be sorted in two ways:

• move the env vars into environment and still use command
• switch to shell but you will also have to disable the other rule command-instead-of-shell

A PR to improve docs here would be appreciated.

Okay, so these are the two options then. I was wondering if there are other ways. The second one seems a bit unclean to be part of the official doc. I am happy to create a PR with the first option.
