ansible / ansible.builtin / v2.9.17 / inventory / azure_rm Azure Resource Manager inventory plugin Authors: unknownansible.builtin.azure_rm (v2.9.17) — inventory
pip
Install with pip install ansible==2.9.17
Query VM details from Azure Resource Manager
Requires a YAML configuration file whose name ends with 'azure_rm.(yml|yaml)'
By default, sets C(ansible_host) to the first public IP address found (preferring the primary NIC). If no public IPs are found, the first private IP (also preferring the primary NIC). The default may be overridden via C(hostvar_expressions); see examples.
plugin: choices: - azure_rm description: marks this as an instance of the 'azure_rm' plugin required: true secret: description: - Azure client secret. Use when authenticating with a Service Principal. type: str tenant: description: - Azure tenant ID. Use when authenticating with a Service Principal. type: str ad_user: description: - Active Directory username. Use when authenticating with an Active Directory user rather than service principal. type: str profile: description: - Security profile found in ~/.azure/credentials file. type: str password: description: - Active Directory user password. Use when authenticating with an Active Directory user rather than service principal. type: str client_id: description: - Azure client ID. Use when authenticating with a Service Principal. type: str api_profile: default: latest description: - Selects an API profile to use when communicating with Azure services. Default value of C(latest) is appropriate for public clouds; future values will allow use with Azure Stack. type: str version_added: 0.0.1 version_added_collection: azure.azcollection auth_source: choices: - auto - cli - credential_file - env - msi default: auto description: - Controls the source of the credentials to use for authentication. - Can also be set via the C(ANSIBLE_AZURE_AUTH_SOURCE) environment variable. - When set to C(auto) (the default) the precedence is module parameters -> C(env) -> C(credential_file) -> C(cli). - When set to C(env), the credentials will be read from the environment variables - When set to C(credential_file), it will read the profile from C(~/.azure/credentials). - When set to C(cli), the credentials will be sources from the Azure CLI profile. C(subscription_id) or the environment variable C(AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID) can be used to identify the subscription ID if more than one is present otherwise the default az cli subscription is used. - When set to C(msi), the host machine must be an azure resource with an enabled MSI extension. C(subscription_id) or the environment variable C(AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID) can be used to identify the subscription ID if the resource is granted access to more than one subscription, otherwise the first subscription is chosen. - The C(msi) was added in Ansible 2.6. type: str version_added: 0.0.1 version_added_collection: azure.azcollection batch_fetch: default: true description: To improve performance, results are fetched using an unsupported batch API. Disabling C(batch_fetch) uses a much slower serial fetch, resulting in many more round-trips. Generally only useful for troubleshooting. keyed_groups: description: Creates groups based on the value of a host variable. Requires a list of dictionaries, defining C(key) (the source dictionary-typed variable), C(prefix) (the prefix to use for the new group name), and optionally C(separator) (which defaults to C(_)) subscription_id: description: - Your Azure subscription Id. type: str plain_host_names: default: false description: - By default this plugin will use globally unique host names. This option allows you to override that, and use the name that matches the old inventory script naming. - This is not the default, as these names are not truly unique, and can conflict with other hosts. The default behavior will add extra hashing to the end of the hostname to prevent such conflicts. type: bool version_added: '2.8' version_added_collection: ansible.builtin cloud_environment: default: AzureCloud description: - For cloud environments other than the US public cloud, the environment name (as defined by Azure Python SDK, eg, C(AzureChinaCloud), C(AzureUSGovernment)), or a metadata discovery endpoint URL (required for Azure Stack). Can also be set via credential file profile or the C(AZURE_CLOUD_ENVIRONMENT) environment variable. type: str version_added: 0.0.1 version_added_collection: azure.azcollection adfs_authority_url: description: - Azure AD authority url. Use when authenticating with Username/password, and has your own ADFS authority. type: str version_added: 0.0.1 version_added_collection: azure.azcollection conditional_groups: description: A mapping of group names to Jinja2 expressions. When the mapped expression is true, the host is added to the named group. hostvar_expressions: description: A mapping of hostvar names to Jinja2 expressions. The value for each host is the result of the Jinja2 expression (which may refer to any of the host's existing variables at the time this inventory plugin runs). cert_validation_mode: choices: - ignore - validate description: - Controls the certificate validation behavior for Azure endpoints. By default, all modules will validate the server certificate, but when an HTTPS proxy is in use, or against Azure Stack, it may be necessary to disable this behavior by passing C(ignore). Can also be set via credential file profile or the C(AZURE_CERT_VALIDATION) environment variable. type: str version_added: 0.0.1 version_added_collection: azure.azcollection default_host_filters: default: - powerstate != "running" - provisioning_state != "succeeded" description: A default set of filters that is applied in addition to the conditions in C(exclude_host_filters) to exclude powered-off and not-fully-provisioned hosts. Set this to a different value or empty list if you need to include hosts in these states. exclude_host_filters: default: [] description: Excludes hosts from the inventory with a list of Jinja2 conditional expressions. Each expression in the list is evaluated for each host; when the expression is true, the host is excluded from the inventory. fail_on_template_errors: choices: - true - false default: true description: When false, template failures during group and filter processing are silently ignored (eg, if a filter or group expression refers to an undefined host variable) include_vm_resource_groups: default: - '*' description: A list of resource group names to search for virtual machines. '\*' will include all resource groups in the subscription. include_vmss_resource_groups: default: [] description: A list of resource group names to search for virtual machine scale sets (VMSSs). '\*' will include all resource groups in the subscription. use_contrib_script_compatible_sanitization: default: false description: - By default this plugin is using a general group name sanitization to create safe and usable group names for use in Ansible. This option allows you to override that, in efforts to allow migration from the old inventory script and matches the sanitization of groups when the script's ``replace_dash_in_groups`` option is set to ``False``. To replicate behavior of ``replace_dash_in_groups = True`` with constructed groups, you will need to replace hyphens with underscores via the regex_replace filter for those entries. - For this to work you should also turn off the TRANSFORM_INVALID_GROUP_CHARS setting, otherwise the core engine will just use the standard sanitization on top. - This is not the default as such names break certain functionality as not all characters are valid Python identifiers which group names end up being used as. type: bool version_added: '2.8' version_added_collection: ansible.builtin
