Inventory Plugins

Dynamically add Linode infrastructure to an Ansible inventory.

Name
linode.cloud.instance

Installation

You can install the Linode collection with the Ansible Galaxy CLI:

ansible-galaxy collection install linode.cloud

The Python module dependencies are not installed by ansible-galaxy. They can be manually installed using pip:

pip install --upgrade -r https://raw.githubusercontent.com/linode/ansible_linode/main/requirements.txt

⚠️ NOTE: Python dependencies should always be reinstalled when upgrading collection versions

Usage

Once the Linode Ansible collection is installed, it can be referenced by its Fully Qualified Collection Namespace (FQCN): linode.cloud.module_name.

In order to use this collection, the LINODE_API_TOKEN environment variable must be set to a valid Linode API v4 token. Alternatively, you can pass your Linode API v4 token into the api_token option for each Linode module you reference.

The LINODE_UA_PREFIX environment variable or the ua_prefix module option can be used to specify a custom User-Agent prefix.

The LINODE_API_URL environment variable pr the api_url module option can be used to specify a custom API base url.

Example Playbook

---
- name: create linode instance
  hosts: localhost
  tasks:
    - name: Create a Linode instance    
      linode.cloud.instance:
        label: my-linode
        type: g6-nanode-1
        region: us-east
        image: linode/ubuntu22.04
        root_pass: verysecurepassword!!!
        state: present

For more information on Ansible collection usage, see Ansible's official usage guide.

Development

The following section outlines various information relating to the development of this collection.

Attaching a Debugger

To quickly and easily attach a debugger to a running module in this collection, you can use the madbg package:

  1. Install madbg in your local Python environment:
pip install madbg
  1. Call madbg.set_trace(...) at the location you would like to create a breakpoint at:
import madbg; madbg.set_trace()
  1. Run the module in either a playbook or a test.
  2. In a separate shell, run madbg connect.
  3. You should now be able to remotely debug the module as soon as the breakpoint is triggered.
