ansible-haproxy-endpoints

An ansible role that installs listening handlers to manage haproxy endpoints.

Requirements

Populated HAProxy ansible group

Example Playbook

- hosts: endpoints
  roles:
     - role: ansible-haproxy-endpoints
       haproxy_state: disabled
     - your_role
     - role: ansible-haproxy-endpoints
       haproxy_state: enabled

In your_role, notify a handler named Manage LB when notifying service restart handlers or other handlers that require LB orchestration. The LB endpoint will be disabled before your handler runs, and then re-enabled after your_role handlers are finished.

You may wish to add a "stub" handler listening to Manage LB in your role in case the playbook does not implement this role.

To do that, add a handler like:

- meta: noop
  listen: Manage LB
  when: false

The handler will prevent an error from being thrown if no LB orchestration exists, but will do nothing otherwise.
