Documentation

Our modules include documentation.

You can find the complete documentation for the modules in the docs-folder or in the Ansible documentation.

To display it on the command-line you can use the ansible-doc command.

For example, to see the documentation for the module icinga_host run the following command on the cli:

ansible-doc t_systems_mms.icinga_director.icinga_host

To see the documentation for the inventory plugin, run:

ansible-doc -t inventory t_systems_mms.icinga_director.icinga_director_inventory

Examples using the modules

See the examples directory for a complete list of examples.

- hosts: localhost
  collections:
    - t_systems_mms.icinga_director
  tasks:
    - name: create a host in icinga
      t_systems_mms.icinga_director.icinga_host:
        state: present
        url: "https://example.com"
        url_username: "{{ icinga_user }}"
        url_password: "{{ icinga_pass }}"
        object_name: "{{ ansible_hostname }}"
        address: "{{ ansible_default_ipv4.address }}"
        display_name: "{{ ansible_hostname }}"
        groups:
          - "foo"
        imports:
          - "StandardServer"
        vars:
          dnscheck: "no"

- name: Query a service apply rule in icinga
  t_systems_mms.icinga_director.icinga_service_apply_info:
    url: "{{ icinga_url }}"
    url_username: "{{ icinga_user }}"
    url_password: "{{ icinga_pass }}"
    query: "SERVICE_dummy"
  register: result

Examples using the role

Please see the README of the role.

Examples using the inventory plugin

Create a file that ends with icinga_director_inventory.yaml, for example inventory.icinga_director_inventory.yaml.

The content should look like this:

plugin: t_systems_mms.icinga_director.icinga_director_inventory
url: "https://example.com"
url_username: foo
url_password: bar
force_basic_auth: False

Then you can use the dynamic inventory like this:

ansible-playbook -i inventory.icinga_director_inventory.yaml path/to/your/playbook.yml

Contributing

See Contributing.

Troubleshooting

If the following error is thrown, check if you're behind a proxy and use force_basic_auth: true in the task.

fatal: [localhost]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "msg": "bad return code while creating: -1. Error message: Request failed: <urlopen error Tunnel connection failed: 302 Found>"}
