[Ansible variables](#setting-up-the-host_list) are used to create a `terraform.tfvars` file. Ansible then calls Terraform to create the infrastructure using a map with optional variables. The output given by Terraform is then parsed by Ansible to [dynamically build it's inventory](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/collections/ansible/builtin/add_host_module.html) and used to configure the created infrastructure.\n\n`anster` can be used in a couple of ways:\n- You quickly need a VM 'in the cloud' with some barebones config.\n- You want to test/build a Ansible playbook/role against a server hosted by a cloud infrastructure provider.\n- You want to build a project that can consistently spin up and configure the same specific set of infrastructure whenever you need it with a single command.\n\nFor more information, please refer to the wiki page [here](https://github.com/justin-p/anster/wiki).\n\n## License\n\n`anster` is licensed under a [GNU General Public v3 License](https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-3.0.en.html).\n\n## Authors\n\nJustin Perdok ([@justin-p](https://github.com/justin-p/)), Orange Cyberdefense\n\n## Contributing\n\nFeel free to open issues, contribute and submit your Pull Requests.
