This collection provides a inventory plugin for Arvan Iaas servers .
ansible-galaxy collection install git+https://github.com/arvancloud/ar-iaas-ansible.git- ansible version >= 2.9
You need a inventory file which its name ends with 'arvan.yml' or 'arvan.yaml' and this file must at least contains plugin option :
# use namespace.collection-name.plugin-name
plugin: arvancloud.iaas.arvanAlso you need enable this plugin in ansible.cfg
[inventory]
enable_plugins=arvancloud.iaas.arvanAnd you need to add API key from your arvan account to inventory file:
plugin: arvancloud.iaas.arvan
api_key: Apikey 01234567-9abc-def0-1234-56789abcdef0Or in ini file:
[default]
key=Apikey 01234567-9abc-def0-1234-56789abcdef0This plugin will look for ini file in this order:
- File specified by api_account module parameter or environment variable ARVAN_API_CONFIG
- arvan.ini file located in current working directory
- $HOME/.arvan.ini
A example of ini file:
[default]
key=Apikey 01234567-9abc-def0-1234-56789abcdef0
timeout=20
max_tries=2
retry_max_delay=1
[account1]
key=Apikey 01234567-9abc-def0-1234-56789abcdef1
timeout=5If ARVAN_API_ACCOUNT environment variable or api_account module parameter is not specified, this plugin will look for the section named "default"
Here is an example of host variables which this plugin returns
New host variables can be composed by compose option in inventory file
Assuming you already installed ansible, Download collection :
$ ansible-galaxy collection install git+https://github.com/arvancloud/ar-iaas-ansible.git -p collections
Create ansible.cfg:
$ cat <<EOF > ansible.cfg
[defaults]
host_key_checking=false
[inventory]
enable_plugins=arvancloud.iaas.arvan
EOF
$
Create inventory file ( file name must be ended with arvan.yaml or arvan.yml ) :
$ cat <<EOF > inventory_arvan.yml
---
# plugin must be arvancloud.iaas.arvan
plugin: arvancloud.iaas.arvan
# add your API key
api_key: Apikey 01234567-9abc-def0-1234-56789abcdef0
compose:
# set ansible_ssh_private_key_file variable based on key_name host variable
ansible_ssh_private_key_file: '["~/.ssh/",key_name]|join("")'
# set ansible_user with default_username host variable
ansible_user: default_username
# create groups based on dc_name host variable with parent group arvan
keyed_groups:
- prefix: ''
key: 'dc_name|lower'
parent_group: arvan
separator: ''
EOF
$
Get list of hosts and groups in inventory:
$ ansible-inventory -i inventory_arvan.yml --playbook-dir ./ --list
