callbacks
|
|
|
|
|
=========
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Callbacks can be used to add logging or monitoring capability, or just make
|
|
|
|
|
interesting sound effects.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Drop callback plugins in your ansible/lib/callback_plugins/ directory.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
connections
|
|
|
|
|
===========
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Connection plugins allow ansible to talk over different protocols.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Drop connection plugins in your ansible/lib/runner/connection_plugins/ directory.
|
|

|
inventory
|
|
|
|
|
=========
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Inventory plugins allow you to store your hosts, groups, and variables in any way
|
|
|
|
|
you like. Examples include discovering inventory from EC2 or pulling it from
|
|
|
|
|
Cobbler. These could also be used to interface with LDAP or database.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
chmod +x an inventory plugin and either name it /etc/ansible/hosts or use ansible
|
|
|
|
|
with -i to designate the path to the plugin.
