[![OpenDev Zuul Builds - Ansible Collection OpenStack](https://zuul-ci.org/gated.svg)](http://zuul.opendev.org/t/openstack/builds?project=openstack%2Fansible-collections-openstack#)

# Ansible Collection: openstack.cloud

This repo hosts the `openstack.cloud` Ansible Collection.

The collection includes the Openstack modules and plugins supported by Openstack community to help the management of Openstack infrastructure.

## Installation and Usage

### Installing dependencies

For using the Openstack Cloud collection firstly you need to install `ansible` and `openstacksdk` Python modules on your Ansible controller.
For example with pip:

```bash
pip install ansible openstacksdk
```

OpenStackSDK has to be available to Ansible and to the Python interpreter on the host, where Ansible executes the module (target host).
Please note, that under some circumstances Ansible might invoke a non-standard Python interpreter on the target host.
Using Python version 3 is highly recommended for OpenstackSDK and strongly required from OpenstackSDK version 0.39.0.

---

#### NOTE

OpenstackSDK is better to be the last stable version. It should NOT be installed on Openstack nodes,
but rather on operators host (aka "Ansible controller"). OpenstackSDK from last version supports
operations on all Openstack cloud versions. Therefore OpenstackSDK module version doesn't have to match
Openstack cloud version usually.

### Installing the Collection from Ansible Galaxy

Before using the Openstack Cloud collection, you need to install the collection with the `ansible-galaxy` CLI:

`ansible-galaxy collection install openstack.cloud`

You can also include it in a `requirements.yml` file and install it through `ansible-galaxy collection install -r requirements.yml` using the format:

```yaml
collections:
- name: openstack.cloud
```

### Playbooks

To use a module from the Openstack Cloud collection, please reference the full namespace, collection name, and module name that you want to use:

```yaml
---
- name: Using Openstack Cloud collection
hosts: localhost
tasks:
- openstack.cloud.server:
name: vm
state: present
cloud: openstack
region_name: ams01
image: Ubuntu Server 14.04
flavor_ram: 4096
boot_from_volume: True
volume_size: 75
```

Or you can add the full namespace and collection name in the `collections` element:

```yaml
---
- name: Using Openstack Cloud collection
hosts: localhost
collections:
- openstack.cloud
tasks:
- server_volume:
state: present
cloud: openstack
server: Mysql-server
volume: mysql-data
device: /dev/vdb
```

For information on contributing, please see [CONTRIBUTING](https://opendev.org/openstack/ansible-collections-openstack/src/branch/master/CONTRIBUTING.rst)

There are many ways in which you can participate in the project, for example:

- Submit [bugs and feature requests](https://storyboard.openstack.org/#!/project/openstack/ansible-collections-openstack), and help us verify them
- Submit and review source code changes in [Openstack Gerrit](https://review.opendev.org/#/q/project:openstack/ansible-collections-openstack)
- Add new modules for Openstack Cloud

We work with [OpenDev Gerrit](https://review.opendev.org/), pull requests submitted through GitHub will be ignored.

## Testing and Development

If you want to develop new content for this collection or improve what is already here, the easiest way to work on the collection is to clone it into one of the configured [`COLLECTIONS_PATHS`](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/reference_appendices/config.html#collections-paths), and work on it there.

### Testing with `ansible-test`

We use `ansible-test` for sanity:

```bash
tox -e linters
```
