Description

Reads servers from Hetzner Robot API.

Uses a YAML configuration file that ends with C(robot.yml) or C(robot.yaml).

The inventory plugin adds all values from U(https://robot.your-server.de/doc/webservice/en.html#get-server) prepended with C(hrobot_) to the server's inventory. For example, the variable C(hrobot_dc) contains the data center the server is located in.

    - 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.
