Bosun

This role installs a self sufficient Bosun instance including OpenTSDB using Docker Containers.

Requirements

None.

Role Variables

There are three variables that drive this role: _bosun, RW_APT_CACHE_UPDATE, and RW_ENABLE_DOWNLOADS. _bosun is a map that contains all configuration and settings for this role. RW_APT_CACHE_UPDATE RW_ENABLE_DOWNLOADS may be specified as extra variables on invocation of Ansible in order to force apt-get update or download assets from the Internet, respectively. Please see defaults/main.yml for details.

Dependencies

This role requires docker_ubuntu.

Example Playbook

The general contract of this role is to take the variables map _bosun from defaults/main.yml as a template for your configuration and pass that configuration as a parameter to this role.

Including an example of how to use your role (for instance, with variables passed in as parameters) is always nice for users too:

- hosts: servers
  var:
    DOCKER:
      ...
    BOSUN:
      ...
  roles:
     - { role: bosun, tags: [ 'bosun' ], _docker_install: "{{ DOCKER }}", _bosun: "{{ BOSUN}}" }
