Retrieves facts about a docker node.

Essentially returns the output of C(docker node inspect <name>).

Must be executed on a host running as Swarm Manager, otherwise the module will fail.

Inputs

    
tls:
    default: false
    description:
    - Secure the connection to the API by using TLS without verifying the authenticity
      of the Docker host server. Note that if I(validate_certs) is set to C(yes) as well,
      it will take precedence.
    - If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable C(DOCKER_TLS)
      will be used instead. If the environment variable is not set, the default value
      will be used.
    type: bool

name:
    description:
    - The name of the node to inspect.
    - The list of nodes names to inspect.
    - If empty then return information of all nodes in Swarm cluster.
    - When identifying the node use either the hostname of the node (as registered in
      Swarm) or node ID.
    - If I(self) is C(true) then this parameter is ignored.
    elements: str
    type: list

self:
    default: false
    description:
    - If C(true), queries the node (i.e. the docker daemon) the module communicates with.
    - If C(true) then I(name) is ignored.
    - If C(false) then query depends on I(name) presence and value.
    type: bool

    default: false
    description:
    - Debug mode
    type: bool

ca_cert:
    aliases:
    - tls_ca_cert

    description:
    - Use a CA certificate when performing server verification by providing the path to
      a CA certificate file.
    - If the value is not specified in the task and the environment variable C(DOCKER_CERT_PATH)
      is set, the file C(ca.pem) from the directory specified in the environment variable
      C(DOCKER_CERT_PATH) will be used.
    type: path

timeout:
    default: 60
    description:
    - 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 C(DOCKER_TIMEOUT)
      will be used instead. If the environment variable is not set, the default value
      will be used.
    type: int

    aliases:
    - tls_client_key
    - key_path
    description:
    - Path to the client's TLS key file.
    - If the value is not specified in the task and the environment variable C(DOCKER_CERT_PATH)
      is set, the file C(key.pem) from the directory specified in the environment variable
      C(DOCKER_CERT_PATH) will be used.
    type: path

docker_host:
    aliases:
    - docker_url
    default: unix://var/run/docker.sock
    description:
    - The URL or Unix socket path used to connect to the Docker API. To connect to a remote
      host, provide the TCP connection string. For example, C(tcp://192.0.2.23:2376).

Outputs

nodes:
  description:
  - Facts representing the current state of the nodes. Matches the C(docker node inspect)
    output.
  - Can contain multiple entries if more than one node provided in I(name), or I(name)
    is not provided.
  - If I(name) contains a list of nodes, the output will provide information on all
    nodes registered at the swarm, including nodes that left the swarm but haven't
    been removed from the cluster on swarm managers and nodes that are unreachable.
