Demo - CSV to Ansible 'hosts' and 'host_vars'

ansible-csv2hosts

Demo - CSV to Ansible 'hosts' and 'host_vars'

Demo

To create the hosts and host_vars files:

user@linux> python csv2hosts.py

The demo is hardcoded to use the CSV file called 'data.csv'.

To run the Ansible playbook to template build a file for each host:

user@linux> ansible-playbook build_conf -i hosts

The output of the ansible run should look like this:

[jeremy@stargate ansible-csv2hosts]$ ansible-playbook -i hosts build_conf 

PLAY [all] ******************************************************************** 

TASK: [building config] *******************************************************

changed: [twb-sf-rtr2]

PLAY RECAP ******************************************************************** 
twb-sf-rtr1                : ok=1    changed=1    unreachable=0    failed=0   
twb-sf-rtr2                : ok=1    changed=1    unreachable=0    failed=0   

Clean-up

The demo repository includes the files created after the demo as run. If you want to remove everything that was built by the demo, do the following:

user@linux> rm hosts
user@linux> rm host_vars/*
user@linux> rm *.conf

Then re-run the demo
