|

This Ansible collection allow for easy interaction with an AWX or Ansible Tower
|
||||
server in Ansible playbooks.
|
||||
|
||||
The previous home for these modules was in https://github.com/ansible/ansible
|
||||
inside the folder `lib/ansible/modules/web_infrastructure/ansible_tower`.
|

The previous home for this collection was in https://github.com/ansible/ansible
|
||||
inside the folder `lib/ansible/modules/web_infrastructure/ansible_tower`
|
||||
as well as other places for the inventory plugin, module utils, and
|
||||
doc fragment.
|
||||
|
||||
## Running
|
||||
|
||||
To use these modules, the "old" tower-cli needs to be installed
|
||||
in the virtual environment where the modules run.
|
||||
To use this collection, the "old" tower-cli needs to be installed
|
||||
in the virtual environment where the collection runs.
|
||||
You can install it from either:
|
||||
|
||||
- https://github.com/ansible/tower-cli/
|
||||
- https://pypi.org/project/ansible-tower-cli/
|
||||
|
||||
To use these modules in AWX, you should create a custom virtual environment
|
||||
to install the requirement into. NOTE: you will also probably still need
|
||||
To use this collection in AWX, you should create a custom virtual environment
|
||||
to install the requirement into. NOTE: running locally, you will also need
|
||||
to set the job template extra_vars to include `ansible_python_interpreter`
|
||||
to be the python in that virtual environment.
|
||||
|
||||
## Running Tests
|
||||
|
||||
Tests to verify compatibility with the most recent AWX code exist
|
||||
Tests to verify compatibility with the most recent AWX code are
|
||||
in `awx_modules/test/awx`. These tests require that python packages
|
||||
are available for all of `awx`, `ansible`, `tower_cli`, and the modules
|
||||
themselves.
|
||||
are available for all of `awx`, `ansible`, `tower_cli`, and the collection
|
||||
itself.
|
||||
|
||||
The target `make prepare_modules_venv` will prepare some requirements
|
||||
in the `awx_modules_test_venv` folder so that `make test_modules` can
|
||||
The target `make prepare_collection_venv` will prepare some requirements
|
||||
in the `awx_collection_test_venv` folder so that `make test_collection` can
|
||||
be ran to actually run the tests. A single test can be ran via:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
make test_modules MODULE_TEST_DIRS=awx_modules/test/awx/test_organization.py
|
||||
make test_collection MODULE_TEST_DIRS=awx_modules/test/awx/test_organization.py
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Building
|
||||
|
||||
To build, you should not be in the AWX virtual environment.
|
||||
This should work on any machine that has a sufficiently recent version
|
||||
of Ansible installed.
|
||||
The build target `make build_collection` will template out a `galaxy.yml` file
|
||||
with automatic detection of the current AWX version. Then it builds the
|
||||
collection with the `ansible-galaxy` CLI.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
cd awx_modules
|
||||
ansible-galaxy build
|
||||
```
|
||||
## Roadmap
|
||||
|
||||
This will leave a tar file in the awx_modules directory.
|
||||
Major future development items on the agenda include:
|
||||
|
||||
This process may be amended in the future to template components of `galaxy.yml`
|
||||
from values (such as version) taken from AWX.
|
||||
- Removing tower-cli as a dependency
|
||||
- Renaming the modules, for example `tower_organization` to just `organization`
|
||||
and giving a deprecation period for the switch
|
||||
|
||||
## Licensing
|
||||
|
||||
All content in this folder is licensed under the same license as Ansible,
|
||||
which is the same as license that applied before the split into an
|
||||
independent collection.
