Terraformed Inventory

This is a little Go app which generates an dynamic Ansible ansible inventory from a [Terraform] tf state file. It allows one to spawn a bunch of VMs with Terraform, then (re-)provision them with Ansible. It's pretty neat.

Usage

Just download the OSX binary and run it.

curl -L -O https://github.com/adammck/terraformedinventory/releases/download/v0.1/terraformedinventory
chmod u+x terraformedinventory
./terraformedinventory --list whatever.tfstate

Ansible doesn't (seem to) support calling the inventory script with parameters, so I like to wrap this tool up in a little shell script, and call that. Something like:

#!/bin/bash
terraformedinventory $@ $(dirname $0)/deploy/terraform.tfstate

Configuration via environment variables, like most other dynamic inventory scripts, is coming soon.

Development

[Install Terraform] tfdev from source, then:

git clone https://github.com/adammck/terraformedinventory.git
cd terraformedinventory
go build
