ansible.builtin.tower (v2.9.27) — inventory

Install Ansible via pip

Install with pip install ansible==2.9.27

Description

Reads inventories from Ansible Tower.

Supports reading configuration from both YAML config file and environment variables.

If reading from the YAML file, the file name must end with tower.(yml|yaml) or tower_inventory.(yml|yaml), the path in the command would be /path/to/tower_inventory.(yml|yaml). If some arguments in the config file are missing, this plugin will try to fill in missing arguments by reading from environment variables.

If reading configurations from environment variables, the path in the command must be @tower_inventory.
