A simple Ansible playbook for DigitalOcean.
$ git clone https://github.com/vinc/ansible-playbook-digitalocean.git
$ cd ansible-playbook-digitalocean
$ sudo pip install -r requirements.txt
$ export DO_CLIENT_ID=XXX DO_API_KEY=XXX
$ ansible-playbook -i hosts site.yml
The inventory file hosts defines the droplets to be created on DigitalOcean.
[droplets]
droplet1.example.net do_size=do_size_1gb do_region=do_region_sfo1 do_image=do_image_ubuntu1410x64
droplet2.example.net do_size=do_size_1gb do_region=do_region_sfo1 do_image=do_image_ubuntu1410x64
The variables do_size, do_region, and do_image can be anything defined
in group_vars/droplets.yml.
The droplet's name are idempotents, the script can be run multiple times without resulting in multiple droplets of the same name.
Ansible will connect to the droplets using their IP addresses instead of the names defined in the inventory. The first task to run after this playbook will probably be to add a DNS entry for each droplet.
You may want to update DigitalOcean's variables (regions, images, and sizes) with the following script:
$ python do_vars.py > group_vars/droplets.yml
