|
|
<p>Ansible ships with a number of modules (called the ‘module library’)
|
|
that can be executed directly on remote hosts or through <a class="reference internal" href="playbooks.html"><em>Playbooks</em></a>.
|
|
Users can also write their own modules. These modules can control system
|
|
resources, like services, packages, or files (anything really), or
|
|
handle executing system commands.</p>
|
|
<p>Let’s review how we execute three different modules from the command line:</p>
|
|
<div class="highlight-python"><pre>ansible webservers -m service -a "name=httpd state=running"
|
|
ansible webservers -m ping
|
|
ansible webservers -m command -a "/sbin/reboot -t now"</pre>
|
|
</div>
|
|
<p>Each module supports taking arguments. Nearly all modules take <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">key=value</span></tt>
|
|
arguments, space delimited. Some modules take no arguments, and the
|
|
command/shell modules simply take the string of the command you want to run.</p>
|
|
<p>From playbooks, Ansible modules are executed in a very similar way:</p>
|
|
<div class="highlight-python"><pre>- name: reboot the servers
|
|
action: command /sbin/reboot -t now</pre>
|
|
</div>
|
|
<p>All modules technically return JSON format data, though if you are using the
|
|
command line or playbooks, you don’t really need to know much about
|
|
that. If you’re writing your own module, you care, and this means you do
|
|
not have to write modules in any particular language – you get to choose.</p>
|
|
<p>Modules are <cite>idempotent</cite>, meaning they will seek to avoid changes to the system unless a change needs to be made. When using Ansible
|
|
playbooks, these modules can trigger ‘change events’ in the form of notifying ‘handlers’
|
|
to run additional tasks.</p>
|
|
<p>Let’s see what’s available in the Ansible module library, out of the box:</p>

<p>Assembles a configuration file from fragments. Often a particular
|
|
program will take a single configuration file and does not support a
|
|
conf.d style structure where it is easy to build up the configuration
|
|
from multiple sources. Assemble will take a directory of files that
|
|
have already been transferred to the system, and concatenate them
|
|
together to produce a destination file. Files are assembled in string
|
|
sorting order. Puppet calls this idea “fragments”.</p>

<p>Please note that the easy_install command can only install Python libraries.
|
|
Thus this module is not able to remove libraries. It is generally recommended to
|
|
use the <a class="reference internal" href="#pip"><em>pip</em></a> module which you can first install using easy_install.</p>
|
|
<p>Also note that <a class="reference external" href="http://www.virtualenv.org/">virtualenv</a> must be installed on

the remote host if the <cite>virtualenv</cite> parameter is specified.</p>

<p class="last">The <strong>silence</strong> and <strong>unsilence</strong> actions have no additional
|
|
parameters that may be used with them.</p>
|
|
</div>
|
|
<p>All actions require the <strong>host</strong> parameter to be given explicitly. In
|
|
playbooks you can use the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">$inventory_hostname</span></tt> variable to refer to
|
|
the host the playbook is currently running on.</p>
|
|
<p>You can specify multiple services at once by separating them with
|
|
commas, .e.g., <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">services=httpd,nfs,puppet</span></tt>.</p>
|
|
<p>When specifying what service to handle there is a special service value,
|
|
<strong>host</strong>, which will handle alerts/downtime for the <strong>host itself</strong>,
|
|
e.g., <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">service=host</span></tt>. This keyword may <em>not</em> be given with other
|
|
services at the same time. <em>Handling alerts/downtime for a host does
|
|
not affect alerts/downtime for any of the services running on it.</em></p>

<p><strong>Troubleshooting Tips</strong></p>
|
|
<p>The nagios module may not operate for you out of the box. The most
|
|
likely problem is with your <strong>cmdfile</strong> permissions/paths. You will
|
|
receive this error if that is the case:</p>
|
|
<div class="highlight-python"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="p">{</span><span class="s">"msg"</span><span class="p">:</span> <span class="s">"unable to write to nagios command file"</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="s">"failed"</span><span class="p">:</span> <span class="n">true</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="s">"cmdfile"</span><span class="p">:</span> <span class="s">"/var/spool/nagios/cmd/nagios.cmd"</span><span class="p">}</span>
|
|
</pre></div>
|
|
</div>
|
|
<p>Steps to correct this:</p>
|
|
<ol class="arabic simple">
|
|
<li>Ensure you are running the nagios module as a user who has
|
|
<strong>write</strong> permissions to the <strong>cmdfile</strong>.</li>
|
|
<li>Ensure you have <strong>cmdfile</strong> set correctly.</li>
|
|
</ol>

<div class="section" id="ohai">
|
|
<span id="id20"></span><h2><a class="toc-backref" href="#contents">ohai</a><a class="headerlink" href="#ohai" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
|
|
<p>Similar to the <a class="reference internal" href="#facter"><em>facter</em></a> module, this returns JSON inventory data.
|
|
Ohai data is a bit more verbose and nested than facter.</p>
|
|
<p>Requires that ‘ohai’ be installed on the remote end.</p>
|
|
<p>Playbooks should not call the ohai module, playbooks call the
|
|
<a class="reference internal" href="#setup"><em>setup</em></a> module behind the scenes instead.</p>
|
|
<p>Example:</p>
|
|
<div class="highlight-python"><pre>ansible foo.example.org -m ohai</pre>
|
|

<p>A trivial test module, this module always returns ‘pong’ on
|
|
successful contact. It does not make sense in playbooks, but is useful
|

from /usr/bin/ansible:</p>

<p>The fundamental function of the module is to create, or delete, roles from a PostgreSQL cluster.
|
|
Privilege assignment, or removal, is an optional step, which works on one database at a time.
|
|
This allows for the module to be called several times in the same module to modify the permissions on
|
|
different databases, or to grant permissions to already existing users.</p>
|
|
<p>A user cannot be removed untill all the privileges have been stripped from the user. In such situation,
|
|
if the module tries to remove the user it will fail. To avoid this from happening the <em>fail_on_user</em> option
|
|
signals the module to try to remove the user, but if not possible keep going; the module will report if changes
|
|
happened and separately if the user was removed or not.</p>
|
|
<p>Example privileges string format:</p>
|
|
<blockquote>
|
|
<div>INSERT,UPDATE/table:SELECT/anothertable:ALL</div></blockquote>

<p>Executes a low-down and dirty SSH command, not going through the module subsystem. This is useful and should only be done in two cases. The first case is installing python-simplejson on older (Python 2.4 and before) hosts that need it as a dependency to run modules, since nearly all core modules require it. Another is speaking to any devices such as routers that do not have any Python installed. In any other case, using the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">shell</span></tt> or <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">command</span></tt> module is much more appropriate. Arguments given to <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">raw</span></tt> are run directly through the configured remote shell and only output is returned. There is no error detection or change handler support for this module</p>
