Azure External Inventory Script
===============================
Generates dynamic inventory by making API requests to the Azure Resource
Manager using the Azure Python SDK. For instruction on installing the
Azure Python SDK see http://azure-sdk-for-python.readthedocs.org/

Authentication
--------------
The order of precedence is command line arguments, environment variables,
and finally the [default] profile found in ~/.azure/credentials.

If using a credentials file, it should be an ini formatted file with one or
more sections, which we refer to as profiles. The script looks for a
[default] section, if a profile is not specified either on the command line
or with an environment variable. The keys in a profile will match the
list of command line arguments below.

For command line arguments and environment variables specify a profile found
in your ~/.azure/credentials file, or a service principal or Active Directory
user.

Command line arguments:
 - profile
 - client_id
 - secret
 - subscription_id
 - tenant
 - ad_user
 - password

Environment variables:
 - AZURE_PROFILE
 - AZURE_CLIENT_ID
 - AZURE_SECRET
 - AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID
 - AZURE_TENANT
 - AZURE_AD_USER
 - AZURE_PASSWORD

Run for Specific Host
-----------------------
When run for a specific host using the --host option, a resource group is
required. For a specific host, this script returns the following variables:

{
  "ansible_host": "XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX",
  "computer_name": "computer_name2",
  "fqdn": null,
  "id": "/subscriptions/subscription-id/resourceGroups/galaxy-production/providers/Microsoft.Compute/virtualMachines/object-name",
  "image": {
    "offer": "CentOS",
    "publisher": "OpenLogic",
    "sku": "7.1",
    "version": "latest"
  },
  "location": "westus",
  "mac_address": "00-00-5E-00-53-FE",
  "name": "object-name",
  "network_interface": "interface-name",
  "network_interface_id": "/subscriptions/subscription-id/resourceGroups/galaxy-production/providers/Microsoft.Network/networkInterfaces/object-name1",
  "network_security_group": null,
  "network_security_group_id": null,
  "os_disk": {
    "name": "object-name",
    "operating_system_type": "Linux"
  },
  "plan": null,
  "powerstate": "running",
  "private_ip": "172.26.3.6",
  "private_ip_alloc_method": "Static",
  "provisioning_state": "Succeeded",
  "public_ip": "XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX",
  "public_ip_alloc_method": "Static",
  "public_ip_id": "/subscriptions/subscription-id/resourceGroups/galaxy-production/providers/Microsoft.Network/publicIPAddresses/object-name",
  "public_ip_name": "object-name",
  "resource_group": "galaxy-production",
  "security_group": "object-name",
  "security_group_id": "/subscriptions/subscription-id/resourceGroups/galaxy-production/providers/Microsoft.Network/networkSecurityGroups/object-name",
  "tags": {
      "db": "database"
  },
  "type": "Microsoft.Compute/virtualMachines",
  "virtual_machine_size": "Standard_DS4"
}

Groups
------
When run in --list mode, instances are grouped by the following categories:
 - azure
 - location
 - resource_group
 - security_group
 - tag key
 - tag key_value

Control groups using azure_rm.ini or set environment variables:

AZURE_GROUP_BY_RESOURCE_GROUP=yes
AZURE_GROUP_BY_LOCATION=yes
AZURE_GROUP_BY_SECURITY_GROUP=yes
AZURE_GROUP_BY_TAG=yes

Select hosts within specific resource groups by assigning a comma separated list to:

AZURE_RESOURCE_GROUPS=resource_group_a,resource_group_b

Select hosts for specific tag key by assigning a comma separated list of tag keys to:

AZURE_TAGS=key1,key2,key3

Select hosts for specific locations:

AZURE_LOCATIONS=eastus,westus,eastus2

Or, select hosts for specific tag key:value pairs by assigning a comma separated list key:value pairs to:

AZURE_TAGS=key1:value1,key2:value2

If you don't need the powerstate, you can improve performance by turning off powerstate fetching:
AZURE_INCLUDE_POWERSTATE=no

azure_rm.ini
------------
As mentioned above, you can control execution using environment variables or a .ini file. A sample
azure_rm.ini is included. The name of the .ini file is the basename of the inventory script (in this case
'azure_rm') with a .ini extension. It also assumes the .ini file is alongside the script. To specify
a different path for the .ini file, define the AZURE_INI_PATH environment variable:

  export AZURE_INI_PATH=/path/to/custom.ini

Powerstate:
-----------
The powerstate attribute indicates whether or not a host is running. If the value is 'running', the machine is
up. If the value is anything other than 'running', the machine is down, and will be unreachable.

Examples:
---------
  Execute /bin/uname on all instances in the galaxy-qa resource group
  $ ansible -i azure_rm.py galaxy-qa -m shell -a "/bin/uname -a"

  Use the inventory script to print instance specific information
  $ contrib/inventory/azure_rm.py --host my_instance_host_name --pretty

  Use with a playbook
  $ ansible-playbook -i contrib/inventory/azure_rm.py my_playbook.yml --limit galaxy-qa


Insecure Platform Warning
-------------------------
If you receive InsecurePlatformWarning from urllib3, install the
requests security packages:

    pip install requests[security]
