## Dependencies

See `requirements.txt` for python library dependencies.

## Examples

### Playbook

A typical playbook would look like this.

```yaml
---
- name: Provision Cloud servers
hosts: all
serial: 5
gather_facts: false
roles:
- role: ngine_io.exoscale_compute
delegate_to: localhost

post_tasks:
- name: Wait for SSH access
delegate_to: localhost
wait_for:
host: "{{ ansible_host }}"
port: 22
timeout: 60

- name: Wait for cloud-init finished
wait_for:
host: "{{ ansible_host }}"
path: /var/lib/cloud/instance/boot-finished
timeout: 600
```

### Common Configurations

Typical common configs in a top level group (e.g. `group_vars/all.yml`) for additional security groups and rules, affinity groups and networks:

```yaml
# file: group_vars/all.yml

# API: creds
exoscale__api_key: EXO...
exoscale__api_secret: ...$

# Zone: default ch-dk-2
exoscale__zone: ch-gva-2

# Template: depending on the templates used, there is a default user created which gets an SSH pub key
ansible_user: rockylinux
exoscale__server_template: "Rocky Linux 8 (Green Obsidian) 64-bit 2021-08-25-13bb54"

# Enable IPv6
exoscale__server_ipv6_enabled: true

# Security groups: create these secrurity groups.
# NOTE: Existing security groups with different names won't be touched.
# NOTE: Additional existing rules in the groups below won't be touched.
exoscale__security_groups:
- name: proxy
rules:
- protocol: tcp
type: ingress
cidr: 0.0.0.0/0
port: 443

- protocol: tcp
type: ingress
cidr: 0.0.0.0/0
port: 80

- protocol: tcp
type: ingress
cidr: 1.2.3.4/32
start_port: 8000
end_port: 8999

- name: mqtt
rules:
- port: 1883
- port: 8883

# Affinity groups: create these groups.
exoscale__affinity_groups:
- name: cassandra
- name: proxy

# Create a private networks for backend access.
exoscale__networks:
- name: my private net
start_ip: 10.23.12.100
end_ip: 10.23.12.150
netmask: 255.255.255.0
```

### Instances config via Group / Host Vars

Assuming an inventory similar to the following:

```ini
[proxy]
proxy1.example.com
proxy2.example.com

[cassandra]
cassandra1.example.com
cassandra2.example.com
cassandra3.example.com
```

Ensure all proxy instances use a different offering and the additional security group proxy:

```yaml
#file: group_vars/proxy.yml

# Large offering (default is Small)
exoscale__server_service_offering: Medium

# Assign security groups to instances (default: [default])
exoscale__server_security_groups:
- default
- proxy

# Attach a private network
exoscale__server_networks:
- my private net
```

Ensure all cassandra instances are on different hardware hosts:

```yaml
#file: group_vars/cassandra.yml

# Assign affinity group to all instances
exoscale__server_affinity_groups: cassandra

# Use CPU related hardware
exoscale__server_service_offering: CPU-extra-large

# Attach a private network
exoscale__server_networks:
- my private net

```

----
> :information_source: **HINT**: get a list of all offerings `cs listServiceOfferings | jq --raw-output '.serviceoffering[].name'`.
> See https://github.com/exoscale/cs/ how to make use the library used underneath as CLI.
