Sorry, i wasn't clear. i am interested in your role setup with Packer.
Do roles work exactly the same as if i was just applying to a running
server? Did you have to do anything different or factor any changes in
files or directory layout?
My goal is to have a role that can be run on any server, be that a running
instance or with packer AMI image. I only want to maintain the compliance
role in one repo with all the rest of our ansible code. I am just not sure
if this will work with Packer and that there will be subtle differences.
Eg, host will be all,
I'm looking to something like:
.
├── ansible.cfg
├── environment
│ └── packerbuild
│ ├── group_vars
│ │─ hosts
│ └── host_vars
│ └──
│ └── dev
│ ├── group_vars
│ │
│ ├── hosts
│ └── host_vars
│
├── hostkeys
│ └── hostkey1
├── playbooks
│ ├── build.yml
├── roles
│ │
│ └── compliance
│ ├── defaults
│ │ └── main.yml
│ ├── files
│ │ └── file1.sh
│ ├── handlers
│ │ └── main.yml
│ ├── meta
│ │ └── main.yml
│ ├── README.md
│ ├── tasks
│ │ ├── task1.yml
| | |- main.yml
│ │ │ │
│ │ └── test.yml
│ ├── templates
│ │ ├── template1.j2.
│ │
│ ├── tests
│ │ ├── inventory
│ │ └── test.yml
│ └── vars
│ └── main.yml
I have a build playbook under ansible/playbooks which calls the compliance
role. This role has multiple include statements in the role/tasks/mainyml
This works fine to apply to a running server from my control node but it
seems that the playbook calling the role cant be in ansible/playbooks but
must be relative to the role so i had to move this one level up.
cat packer-role/build.yml
---
- name: Build Role
hosts: all
roles:
- role: compliance
Would you mind sharing any guidance you have with using roles and
ansible-remote provisioner?
Do you have a separate ansible code base for packer?
Cheers
Mat
