.SH "NAME"
|
||||
ansible-modules \- stock modules shipped with ansible
|
||||
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
|
||||
.sp
|
||||
Ansible ships with a number of modules that can be executed directly on remote hosts or through ansible playbooks\&.
|
||||
.SH "IDEMPOTENCE"
|
||||
.sp
|
||||
Most modules other than command are idempotent, meaning they will seek to avoid changes unless a change needs to be made\&. When using ansible playbooks, these modules can trigger change events\&. Unless otherwise noted, all modules support change hooks\&.
|
||||
.SH "COMMAND"
|
||||
.sp
|
||||
The command module takes the command name followed by a list of arguments, space delimited\&. This is the only module that does not use key=value style parameters\&.
|
||||
.sp
|
||||
Example usage:
|
||||
.sp
|
||||
"/sbin/shutdown \-t now"
|
||||
.sp
|
||||
This module does not support change hooks\&.
|
||||
.sp
|
||||
Returns the return code from the program as well as timing information\&.
|
||||
.sp
|
||||
Async command running and command execution time limits are in plan\&. These will probably be special keyvalue parameters expressed on the end of the command line, like ANSTIMEOUT=1 and ANS_ASYNC=1 or similar\&.
|
||||
.SH "COPY"
|
||||
.sp
|
||||
The copy module takes a list of source files
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
\fBsrc=\fR
|
||||
.RS 4
|
||||
Local absolute path to a file to copy to the remote server
|
||||
.RE
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
\fBdest=\fR
|
||||
.RS 4
|
||||
Remote absolute path where the file should end up
|
||||
.RE
|
||||
.sp
|
||||
This module also returns md5sum information about the resultant file\&.
|
||||
.SH "FACTER"
|
||||
.sp
|
||||
Runs the discovery program \fIfacter\fR on the remote system, returning JSON data that can be useful for inventory purposes\&.
|
||||
.sp
|
||||
Requires that \fIfacter\fR and \fIruby\-json\fR be installed on the remote end\&.
|
||||
.sp
|
||||
This module is information only \- it takes no parameters & does not support change hooks, nor does it make any changes on the system\&.
|
||||
.SH "FILE"
|
||||
.sp
|
||||
Ensures the ownership and permissions of files are as desired\&.
|
||||
.sp
|
||||
Use copy or template first if you need to make sure a file is on the box\&.
|
||||
.sp
|
||||
In plan\&.
|
||||
.SH "GIT"
|
||||
.sp
|
||||
Deploys software from git checkouts\&.
|
||||
.sp
|
||||
This module is in plan\&.
|
||||
.SH "OHAI"
|
||||
.sp
|
||||
Similar to the facter module, this returns JSON inventory data\&. Ohai data is a bit more verbose and nested than facter\&.
|
||||
.sp
|
||||
Requires that \fIohai\fR be installed on the remote end\&.
|
||||
.sp
|
||||
This module is information only \- it takes no parameters & does not support change hooks, nor does it make any changes on the system\&.
|
||||
.SH "PING"
|
||||
.sp
|
||||
A trivial test module, this module always returns the integer \fI1\fR on successful contact\&.
|
||||
.sp
|
||||
This module does not support change hooks\&.
|
||||
.sp
|
||||
This module is information only \- it takes no parameters & does not support change hooks, nor does it make any changes on the system\&.
|
||||
.SH "SERVICE"
|
||||
.sp
|
||||
Controls services on remote machines\&.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
\fBensure=\fR
|
||||
.RS 4
|
||||
Values are
|
||||
\fIstarted\fR,
|
||||
\fIstopped\fR, or
|
||||
\fIrestarted\fR\&. Started/stopped are idempotent actions that will not run commands unless neccessary\&.
|
||||
\fIrestarted\fR
|
||||
will always bounce the service
|
||||
.RE
|
||||
.PP
|
||||

|
||||
.RS 4
|
||||
The name of the service
|
||||
.RE
|
||||
.SH "SETUP"
|
||||
.sp
|
||||
Writes a JSON file containing key/value data, for use in templating\&. Call this once before using the template modules, usually as the very first step in your playbook\&.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
\fBmetadata=\fR
|
||||
.RS 4
|
||||
Optionally overrides the default JSON file location of /etc/ansible/setup\&. If used, also supply the metadata parameter to
|
||||
\fItemplate\fR\&. Change if running as a non\-root remote user who does not have permissions on /etc/ansible\&.
|
||||
.RE
|
||||
.SH "TEMPLATE"
|
||||
.sp
|
||||
Templates a file out to a remote server\&. Call the setup module prior to usage\&.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
\fBsrc=\fR
|
||||
.RS 4
|
||||
path of a Jinja2 formatted template on the local server
|
||||
.RE
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
\fBdest\fR
|
||||
.RS 4
|
||||
location to render the template on the remote server
|
||||
.RE
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
\fBmetadata\fR
|
||||
.RS 4
|
||||
location of a JSON file to use to supply template data\&. Default is /etc/ansible/setup which is the same as the default for the setup module\&. Change if running as a non\-root remote user who does not have permissions on /etc/ansible\&.
|
||||
.RE
|
||||
.sp
|
||||
This module also returns md5sum information about the resultant file\&.
|
||||
.SH "USER"
|
||||
.sp
|
||||
This module is in plan\&.
|
||||
.SH "YUM"
|
||||
.sp
|
||||
This module is in plan\&.
|
||||
.SH "WRITING YOUR OWN MODULES"
|
||||
.sp
|
||||
To write your own modules, simply follow the convention of those already available in /usr/share/ansible\&. Modules must return JSON but can be written in any language\&. To support change hooks, modules should return hashes, with a changed: True/False element at the top level\&. Modules can also choose to indicate a failure scenario by returning a top level \fIfailure\fR element with a True value\&.
|
||||
.SH "AUTHOR"
|
||||
.sp
|
||||
Ansible was originally written by Michael DeHaan\&. See the AUTHORS file for a complete list of contributors\&.
|
||||
.SH "SEE ALSO"
