Ansible Dynamic Inventory Sources for CloudSigma.
This script relies on the pycloudsigma. Install it by running:
$ pip install -r requirements.txt
Next, you need to configure your credentials and data center location per the installation instructions.
With pycloudsigma installed, you now need to build the database. To do this, run:
$ ./ansiblecs.py --refreshdb
You can then verify the entry by running:
$ ./ansiblecs.py --list
This should return a list of all running nodes, along with their IPs.
Finally, let's test this with ansible by running a ping against the server ansible.local:
$ ansible -i ansiblecs.py -u cloudsigma ansible.local -m ping
ansible.local | success >> {
"changed": false,
"ping": "pong"
}
Success! If that worked out, let's make this your default Ansible back-end. To do this, edit /etc/ansible/ansible.cfg (or create it if it doesn't exist). What you need to do is to change 'hostfile' such that it points to your script. A minimal ansible.cfg would look like this:
[defaults]
hostfile = /path/to/ansiblecs.py
This allows you to simply run:
$ ansible -u cloudsigma ansible.local -m ping
