Enables an LXC server's configuration as an inventory source for LXC
containers.
In LXC, containers can be defined with an "lxc.group" configuration
option that is normally used with lxc-autostart -g. Here, we are using
the same option to build Ansible inventory groups.
In addition to being grouped according to their lxc.group entry (or
entries, as LXC allows a single container to be in multiple groups),
we also add all containers (including those with no lxc.group entry)
to the "all" group.
* Initial work on Brook.io dynamic inventory
* Handle error cases in Brook.io dynamic inventory
* Remove defaults from brook.ini
* Update Brook.io dynamic inventory for libbrookv0.3
Use authentication api to obtain a valid JWT from an API Token.
* Remove defaults from brook.ini
add cobbler api authentication options: username and password, which
can be provided if authentication is enabled or cobbler api is behind
a proxy that needs authentication.
Fix openstack inventory for when we have multiple servers with the same
name but different IDs. Instead of giving every server with the same
name the details for the first server returned with that name add the
individual servers as they are returned.
This was a logic bug where in a loop over a list of servers we always
added the first server in that list despite having more than one server.
EC2 inventory scripts reads configuration from an INI file. The `instance_filters` option controls which EC2 instances are retrieved for inventory. Filling this option and running the inventory script with Python 3 crashes with the following error:
```python
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./contrib/inventory/ec2.py", line 1328, in <module>
Ec2Inventory()
File "./contrib/inventory/ec2.py", line 163, in __init__
self.read_settings()
File "./contrib/inventory/ec2.py", line 393, in read_settings
for instance_filter in config.get('ec2', 'instance_filters', '').split(','):
TypeError: get() takes 3 positional arguments but 4 were given
```
The problem is the last parameter of config.get() call, because `fallback` keyword argument is not specified.
The fix handles epmpty `instance_filers` in case of Python 2&3
There are cases where the host list back from the cloud comes back
duplicated. This causes us to report those with UUIDs, which we do to
support truly different servers with the same name. However, in the case
where duplicate host entries have the same UUID, we can know it's a data
hiccup.
