This inventory module is based on the shade library like the new os_
modules. It shares the ability to configure itself from os-client-config
configuration files or from the standard OS_ environment variables.
More importantly the guts of the code to get the server vars is now
shared with os_compute_facts. This means that playbooks that provision
compute hosts and then want to run plays on them can refer to server
variables in exactly the same way whether the provsioning play ran first
or whether the play ran in the context of a pre-existing inventory.
- Adds to changes from #6676 to support nested VPC group and VPC grouping for RDS.
- Adds to changes from #8822 to ignore invalid instance filters.
- Implements grouping by AMI ID based on #7573.
- Implements configuration options to limit which groups are created automatically, based on #7573.
- renamed to syslog_json (leaving it open to other syslogs in future)
- moved logger to be part of callback object
- made logger configurable through env variables
Submission includes support for
- creating and registering services and checks
- reading, writing and lookup for values in consul's kv store
- creating and manipulating sessions for distributed locking on values in the kv
- creating and manipulating ACLs for restricting access to the kv store
- inventory support that reads the Consul catalog and group nodes according to
- datacenters
- exposed services
- service availability
- arbitrary groupings from the kv store
This submission makes extensive use of the python-consul library and this is required
as a dependency and can be installed from pip.
The tests were written to target a vagrant cluster which can be setup by following the
instructions here http://github.com/sgargan/consul-vagrant
This allows filtering out EC2 instances based on various different
filters including tags. As requested in 7480 it supports logical "OR"
instead of "AND" on the provided list of filters.
The provisioning module knows more about how nova deals with IP
addresses now. Ensure that the inventory module is similarly as smart
by separating out the logic into the openstack/module_utils.
fixed vmware properties, was getting parent's properties
cache now actually works
removed tags, they were not the ones i was looking for
renamed cache defaults fixed ini file to match
