Quick Ansible Doc

See the Ansible page in the HariSekhon/Knowledge-Base repo.

Ansible Inventory

A template of a quick easy static Ansible inventory is here:

inventory.ini

More advanced dynamic inventories that populate by querying things like cloud providers can be used via plugins.

Ansible Playbooks

Quickly install to a given host using -i <hostname>, with the trailing comma to let Ansible know it is an inline host list not an inventory.ini file.

Check Diff, Then Run

Find a playbook you want, then run a dry run --check --diff to see what it would do, check your SSH config is set up with the right AWS pem keys etc:

ansible-playbook -i inventory.ini path/to/playbook.yml --check --diff

If it look ok, then run it:

ansible-playbook -i inventory.ini path/to/playbook.yml

Install Prometheus

ansible-playbook -i localhost, prometheus/playbook.yml

Install Node Exporter

ansible-playbook -i localhost, prometheus_node_exporter/playbook.yml
