roq-ansible¶
The roq-ansible
project contains a set of Ansible roles useful for
provisioning a server.
All the roles are based on group membership.
For example, if you define an Ansible Playbook, you will need an inventory file
[MY_SERVER]
my_server ansible_host="192.168.0.1" backups="/mnt/Backups/{{ ansible_hostname }}"
[secure]
my_server
[trading]
my_server
This shows that we have defined a host with the my_server
identifier,
which belongs to the following groups
secure
trading
By convention it implicitly also belongs to the all
group.
When you run your Ansible Playbook, the roles will be matched to groups to find out if a role has to be executed for the particular host.
Some roles use group membership to e.g. create config files. This is the case for Prometheus and NGINX: they both require information about what gateways have been installed.
