Generates inventory that Ansible can understand by making API requests to Foreman.
Information about the Foreman's instance can be stored in the foreman.ini file. A base_url, username and password need to be provided. The path to an alternate configuration file can be provided by exporting the FOREMAN_INI_PATH variable.
When run against a specific host, this script returns the following variables based on the data obtained from Foreman:
- id
- ip
- name
- environment
- os
- model
- compute_resource
- domain
- architecture
- created
- updated
- status
- ansible_ssh_host
When run in --list mode, instances are grouped by the following categories:
- group
Execute uname on all instances in the dev group
sh $ ansible -i theforeman.py dev -m shell -a \"/bin/uname -a\"
This was submitted to the Ansible project, but the patch was not included. I'll maintain this script in this repository for now.
