# This playbook demonstrates how to use the ansible cloudformation module to launch an AWS CloudFormation stack.
#
# This module requires that the boto python library is installed, and that you have your AWS credentials
# in $HOME/.boto
#The thought here is to bring up a bare infrastructure with CloudFormation, but use ansible to configure it.
#I generally do this in 2 different playbook runs as to allow the ec2.py inventory to be updated.
#This module also uses "complex arguments" which were introduced in ansible 1.1 allowing you to specify the
#Cloudformation template parameters
#This example launches a 3 node AutoScale group, with a security group, and an InstanceProfile with root permissions.
#If a stack does not exist, it will be created. If it does exist and the template file has changed, the stack will be updated.
#If the parameters are different, the stack will also be updated.
#CloudFormation stacks can take awhile to provision, if you are curious about its status, use the AWS
#web console or one of the CloudFormation CLI's.
#Example update -- try first launching the stack with 3 as the ClusterSize. After it is launched, change it to 4
#and run the playbook again.
