I am trying to use GIT as the single source of truth for all artifacts - inputs, inventory and output generated by ansible runs.
Ansible git module does not have add, commit and push options, so I am currently using below method to achieve this:
- name: Clone GIT Repository
ansible.builtin.git:
repo: "{{ repo_url }}"
dest: "{{ tmp_repo_directory }}"
clone: yes
update: yes
- name: copy folders
copy:
dest: "{{ tmp_repo_directory }}"
src: "{{ item }}"
force: true
loop:
- "{{ playbook_dir }}/outputs"
- "{{ playbook_dir }}/inventory"
- name: "Add output directory to git"
ansible.builtin.shell: |
git config --global user.name "rhaap"
git config --global user.email "rhaap@rhaap.com"
git add -A && git commit -m "RHAAP Job ID {{ tower_job_id }}: Automated Commit by Ansible " && git push
args:
chdir: "{{ tmp_repo_directory }}"
ignore_errors: true
register: output
failed_when: >
output.msg != "" and
("error" in output.msg or
"conflict" in output.msg or
"Errno" in output.msg or
"fatal" in output.msg or
(output.stdout != "" and
"nothing to commit, working tree clean" not in output.stdout) or
(output.stderr != ""))
Is there a plan to add these options to the git module ?
Also, is there a better way to handle these operations.
PS- we don't expect to see parallel commits to GIT repo to see conflicts.
