EC2 external inventory script
=================================
Generates inventory that Ansible can understand by making API request to
AWS EC2.
NOTE: This script assumes Ansible is being executed where the environment
variables needed for Boto have been set:
export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=''
export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=''
variables needed for Boto have already been set:
export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID='AK123'
export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY='abc123'
For more details, see: http://docs.pythonboto.org/en/latest/boto_config_tut.html

1:14 I'd break the get_instances_by_region function up so it calls a few smaller functions
1:18 each function having a comment is a good thing
1:19 parser script needs to support taking a hostname to get the variables, right?
1:22 pas256: read the source to the cobbler inventory script
1:22 it has two modes... list all my groups
1:22 and another is for this given host, what variables do I use
mdehaan
1:23 if you are not actually generating the file, and are using it as a param to -i, it will need to do both
mdehaan
1:23 API is not as friendly as YAML or JSON, but it is ok
1:23 I will not do YAML config files again if I can help it
pas256
1:26 Ooo I missed that functionality so `script --list hostname` returns just a JSON object with whatever variables that host has
1:26 very cool
1:26 I can add that
mdehaan
1:26 no
1:26 script --list is one way it is executed
1:26 script --host <hostname>, is the other, I believe
pas256
1:26 o ok
mdehaan
1:27 looks like the cobbler one needs fixing up
1:27 pilt [~pilt@h-60-43.a163.priv.bahnhof.se] entered the room.
mdehaan
1:27 sorry about that, clear no one is using it
pas256
1:27 the cobbler script doesn't care what the first arg is, only the count
1:27 lol yeah
mdehaan
1:27 I really kinda like the idea of just generating the inventory file
1:27 maybe it should just do that
1:27 faster, no need to cache
1:27 plus it's a nice record of exactly what it will use
pas256
1:27 but with EC2, it is always changing
1:28 at least for us it is
mdehaan
1:28 https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/560
mdehaan
1:29 pas256: yeah, true
mdehaan
1:29 either way
1:29 pilt left the room (quit: Client Quit).
mdehaan
1:29 you could still run it if you wanted to look
pas256
1:30 yep
mdehaan
1:31 so assuming there is a metadata way to get variables out of EC2 you could store them with the host
1:31 and let ansible see all of them or some of them
pas256
1:32 yeah the instance object has a lot of data in it, I am only grouping by what makes sense to group by
mdehaan
1:33 can you define your own namespaces for variables? Maybe there could be an ansible one...
1:33 though there shouldn't be a lot of host specific variables really
1:33 group specific variables are nice to support though
1:33 I can see use in that
pas256
1:33 ec2_ everything?
mdehaan
1:33 webservers get fooserver=xyz.example.com
1:33 you need some way of doing stuff like that
1:34 I don't know EC2's API at all
1:34 or EC2, really
pas256
1:34 AWS in general is pretty sweet there is a lot to it
mdehaan
1:35 yeah, seems like you could spend a long time learning all their various services
1:35 it's kind of a specialization in itself
pas256
1:35 agreed
