Hello,
at first, thanks for all the good work on Ansible, I like the project a
lot! I spent more than a year working with Puppet, and I have to say that
using Ansible is much less headache.
I tend to work with nodes of various nature. Some inventory info I can get
from remote service (OpenStack Nova) and some I need to hardcode ("pet"
nodes). I really like that the "hostfile" config option can take a
directory as an agument, and evaluates everything below!
For the static part of my infrastructure, I use .ssh/config. I still didn't
get used to the Ansible "ini" static inventory. I wrote an inventory script
which parses the .ssh/config and lets you use the Host alias with ansible.
For example, if you have .ssh/config containing:
Host git
HostName git.domain.org
User tkarasek
IdentityFile /home/tomk/keys/thekey
You can do $ ansible git -m ping.
The script is at
https://github.com/t0mk/various/blob/master/ssh_config-inventory.py
Should I create pull request? Or is it against ansible philosophy?
Cheers,
Tomas
