Example Playbook

The following playbook will install ProsperBot to a host, configured to authenticate with your Prosper credentials. ProsperBot depends on Redis, so in this example, we'll be installing the DavidWittman.redis Ansible role on the same host.

secrets.yml

prosperbot_prosper_client_id: [insert your Prosper client ID]
prosperbot_prosper_client_secret: [insert your Prosper client secret]
prosperbot_prosper_username: [insert your Prosper username]
prosperbot_prosper_password: [insert your Prosper password]

prosperbot_prosper_client_id and prosperbot_prosper_client_secret are the values Prosper assigns to you when you generate OAuth credentials on the OAuth Settings page.

prosperbot_prosper_username and prosperbot_prosper_password are the credentials you use to log in to Prosper via the web site.
