Galaxy link

https://galaxy.ansible.com/thiagoalmeidasa/aws_efs/

Requirements

Amazon AWS account, EFS filesystem(s) and EC2 virtual server(s) with Ubuntu or RedHat.

Ansible requirements

Ansible version

Minimum required ansible version is 2.0.

Ansible role dependencies

None.

Installation

Install with Ansible Galaxy

ansible-galaxy install thiagoalmeidasa.aws_efs

Basic usage is:

- hosts: all
  roles:
  - role: thiagoalmeidasa.aws_efs
    vars:
      aws_efs_paths:
      - path: "/path"
        owner: "root"
        group: "root"
        mode: "0644"
        region: "eu-west-1"
        filesystem_id: "fs-someid"

With all variables explicitely defined:

- hosts: all
  roles:
  - role: thiagoalmeidasa.aws_efs
    vars:
      aws_efs_paths:
      - path: "/path"
        owner: "root"
        group: "root"
        mode: "0644"
        region: "eu-west-1"
        filesystem_id: "fs-someid"
        state: "mounted",
        opts: "nfsvers=4.1,rsize=1048576,wsize=1048576,hard,timeo=600,retrans=2"

Install with git

If you do not want a global installation, clone it into your roles_path.

git clone [email protected]:thiagoalmeidasa/ansible-role-aws-efs.git /path/to/roles_path

But I often add it as a submdule in a given playbook_dir repository.

git submodule add [email protected]:thiagoalmeidasa/ansible-role-aws-efs.git <playbook_dir>/roles/aws_efs

Include role this way:

- hosts: all
  roles:
  - role: aws_efs

As the role is not managed by Ansible Galaxy, you do not have to specify the github user account.

Role Variables

Default vars

Role default variables from defaults/main.yml.
