community.docker.docker_swarm – Ansible dynamic inventory plugin for Docker swarm nodes.
Note
This plugin is part of the community.docker collection (version 1.10.0).
You might already have this collection installed if you are using the ansible
package. It is not included in ansible-core
. To check whether it is installed, run ansible-galaxy collection list
.
To install it, use: ansible-galaxy collection install community.docker
.
To use it in a playbook, specify: community.docker.docker_swarm
.
Synopsis
- Reads inventories from the Docker swarm API.
- Uses a YAML configuration file docker_swarm.[yml|yaml].
- The plugin returns following groups of swarm nodes: all - all hosts; workers - all worker nodes; managers - all manager nodes; leader - the swarm leader node; nonleaders - all nodes except the swarm leader.
Requirements
The below requirements are needed on the local controller node that executes this inventory.
- python >= 2.7
- Docker SDK for Python >= 1.10.0
Parameters
Parameter | Choices/Defaults | Configuration | Comments |
---|---|---|---|
api_version string | The version of the Docker API running on the Docker Host. Defaults to the latest version of the API supported by docker-py. aliases: docker_api_version | ||
ca_cert path | Use a CA certificate when performing server verification by providing the path to a CA certificate file. aliases: tls_ca_cert, cacert_path | ||
client_cert path | Path to the client's TLS certificate file. aliases: tls_client_cert, cert_path | ||
client_key path | Path to the client's TLS key file. aliases: tls_client_key, key_path | ||
compose dictionary | Default: {} | Create vars from jinja2 expressions. | |
docker_host string / required | Socket of a Docker swarm manager node ( tcp , unix ).Use unix://var/run/docker.sock to connect via local socket.aliases: docker_url | ||
groups dictionary | Default: {} | Add hosts to group based on Jinja2 conditionals. | |
include_host_uri boolean |
| Toggle to return the additional attribute ansible_host_uri which contains the URI of the swarm leader in format of tcp://172.16.0.1:2376 . This value may be used without additional modification as value of option docker_host in Docker Swarm modules when connecting via API. The port always defaults to 2376 . | |
include_host_uri_port integer | Override the detected port number included in ansible_host_uri
| ||
keyed_groups list / elements=string | Default: [] | Add hosts to group based on the values of a variable. | |
leading_separator boolean added in 2.11 of ansible.builtin |
| Use in conjunction with keyed_groups. By default, a keyed group that does not have a prefix or a separator provided will have a name that starts with an underscore. This is because the default prefix is "" and the default separator is "_". Set this option to False to omit the leading underscore (or other separator) if no prefix is given. If the group name is derived from a mapping the separator is still used to concatenate the items. To not use a separator in the group name at all, set the separator for the keyed group to an empty string instead. | |
plugin string / required |
| The name of this plugin, it should always be set to community.docker.docker_swarm for this plugin to recognize it as it's own. | |
ssl_version string | Provide a valid SSL version number. Default value determined by ssl.py module. | ||
strict boolean |
| If yes make invalid entries a fatal error, otherwise skip and continue.Since it is possible to use facts in the expressions they might not always be available and we ignore those errors by default. | |
timeout integer | Default: 60 | The maximum amount of time in seconds to wait on a response from the API. If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable DOCKER_TIMEOUT will be used instead. If the environment variable is not set, the default value will be used.aliases: time_out | |
tls boolean |
| Connect using TLS without verifying the authenticity of the Docker host server. | |
tls_hostname string | When verifying the authenticity of the Docker host server, provide the expected name of the server. | ||
use_extra_vars boolean added in 2.11 of ansible.builtin |
| ini entries: [inventory_plugins] env:ANSIBLE_INVENTORY_USE_EXTRA_VARS | Merge extra vars into the available variables for composition (highest precedence). |
use_ssh_client boolean added in 1.5.0 of community.docker |
| For SSH transports, use the ssh CLI tool instead of paramiko.Requires Docker SDK for Python 4.4.0 or newer. | |
validate_certs boolean |
| Toggle if connecting using TLS with or without verifying the authenticity of the Docker host server. aliases: tls_verify | |
verbose_output boolean |
| Toggle to (not) include all available nodes metadata (e.g. Platform , Architecture , OS , EngineVersion ) |
