When making calls to AWS EC2 api with DescribeTags actiion and if the
number of filter values is greater than or equal to 200, it results in
400 bad request reply and the error message is:
"Error connecting to AWS backend.\n The maximum number of filter values specified on a single call is 200".
The change is so that we call get_all_tags with maximum 199 filter
values one at a time until all are consumed.
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.
Add support for a new option to the openstack inventory. This is so
should one cloud be unavailable you can still list hosts from any
other openstack clouds you have configured.
This is exposed as an option under the extra config part of ansible
in the openstack clouds.yaml.
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.
The OpenStack inventory lists hostnames as the UUIDs because hostsnames
are not guarnateed to be unique on OpenStack. However, for the common
case, this is just confusing.
The new behavior is a visible change, so make it an opt-in via config.
Only turn the hostnames to UUIDs if there are duplicate hostnames.
If enabled, this will convert tags of the form "a,b,c" to a list and use
the results to create additional inventory groups.
This is based on PR #8676 by nickpeck (but not a straight rebase—both
the code and the nomenclature have been changed here).
Closes#8676
This allows the EC2 inventory plugin to be used with
the same configuration against different EC2 accounts
Profile can be passed using --profile variable or using
EC2_PROFILE environment variable e.g.
```
EC2_PROFILE=prod ansible-playbook -i ec2.py playbook.yml
```
Added documentation on profiles to EC2 dynamic inventory doc
Only tries to use profiles if --profile argument is given
or EC2_PROFILE is set to maintain compatibility will boto < 2.24.
Works around a minor bug in boto where if you try and use
a security token with a profile it fails (boto/boto#2100)
Replace .iteritems() with six.iteritems() everywhere except in
module_utils (because there's no 'six' on the remote host). And except
in lib/ansible/galaxy/data/metadata_template.j2, because I'm not sure
six is available there.
Configured with environment variables -- e.g.:
ANSIBLE_INVENTORY_CONSUL_IO_LOG_ENABLED=1 ANSIBLE_INVENTORY_CONSUL_IO_LOG_LEVEL=DEBUG /path/to/consul_io.py --list
This gives some verbose logging, including showing all HTTP requests being
made, which I am finding useful, as I am trying to improve the performance of
this script.
Introduces destination_format and destination_format_tags
to allow the construction of host names based on one or
more ec2 tags and a python format string.

before
RDS: `ERROR: Inventory script (ec2.py) had an execution error: Forbidden`
EC2: `ERROR: Inventory script (ec2.py) had an execution error: Error connecting to AWS backend.
You are not authorized to perform this operation.`
after
RDS: `ERROR: Inventory script (ec2.py) had an execution error: ERROR: "Forbidden", while: getting RDS instances`
EC2: `ERROR: Inventory script (ec2.py) had an execution error: ERROR: "Error connecting to AWS backend.
You are not authorized to perform this operation.", while: getting EC2 instances`
renamed plugins to contrib (they are not really plugins)
rewrote README.md to reflect new usage
added new dir to setup.py so it gets copied with installation, in views
of making using inventory scripts easier in teh future
