You have some options on how you install the agent. You can certainly install
with just pip install the Ansible role actually does this but in addition runs
monasca-setup for you. Using pip is discussed on this page,
https://github.com/stackforge/monasca-agent/blob/master/docs/Agent.md#installing
The Ansible role can make things even easier in particular if you have Ansible
installed. The playbook you call this from can be quite simple, here is one I
use:
- name: Installs the Monasca Agent
hosts: monasca
sudo: yes
vars:
monasca_agent_check_frequency: 15
roles:
- {role: monasca-agent, tags: [agent]}
The key thing to be aware of is that the requirements for the role which are
all listed in the README.md at
https://github.com/hpcloud-mon/ansible-monasca-agent
In the above example those requirements are defined in the group_vars.

Subject: [Monasca] question about monasca-agent installation
What is the right way to install monasca-agent? Using
https://github.com/hpcloud-mon/ansible-monasca-agent or pip install?
How will the ansible cookbook be used? There is no main.yml to run the
cookbook. Anyone can give me an example?
