I need to remove multiple servers from multiple nagios monitoring via api keys with ansible. so I tried below solution but not able to get api key section in command and get the success output
example- hosts file -->
[nagios_server]
10.0.0.1 apikey=XXXXXXXX
10.0.0.2 apikey=YYYYYYYY
10.0.0.3 apikey=ZZZZZZZZ
[Linux_remove_machine]
192.168.0.1
192.168.0.2
Main.yml -->
---
- name: remove server from monitoring
hosts: localhost
vars:
output_path: "./reports/"
filename: "device_report_{{ date }}.csv"
tasks:
- include_tasks: nagios.yml
loop: "{{ groups['nagios_server'] }}"
loop_control:
loop_var: outer_item
register: check
- debug:
var=check
nagios.yml -->
- name: execute command in loop
shell:
curl -XDELETE "http://{{ outer_item }}/nagiosxi/api/v1/config/host?apikey=**{{apikey }}**&host_name={{ item }}&applyconfig=1
loop: "{{groups['Linux_remove_machine']}}"
register: remove_nagios
Expected below output
curl -XDELETE "http://10.0.0.1/......./XXXXXX/&host_name=192.168.0.1&applyconfig=1
curl -XDELETE "http://10.0.0.2/......./YYYYYY/&host_name=192.168.0.1&applyconfig=1
curl -XDELETE "http://10.0.0.3/......./ZZZZZZ/&host_name=192.168.0.1&applyconfig=1
curl -XDELETE "http://10.0.0.1/......./XXXXXX/&host_name=192.168.0.2&applyconfig=1
curl -XDELETE "http://10.0.0.2/......./YYYYYY/&host_name=192.168.0.2&applyconfig=1
curl -XDELETE "http://10.0.0.3/......./ZZZZZZ/&host_name=192.168.0.2&applyconfig=1
Create a dictionary of the API keys. Declare the variable
apikey_dict: "{{ dict(groups.nagios_server|
zip(groups.nagios_server|
map('extract', hostvars, 'apikey'))) }}"
gives
apikey_dict:
10.0.0.1: XXXXXXXX
10.0.0.2: YYYYYYYY
10.0.0.3: ZZZZZZZZ
Then, use it to reference the apikey. Test it
shell> cat nagios.yml
- name: execute the command in the loop
debug:
msg: 'curl -XDELETE "http://{{ outer_item }}/nagiosxi/api/v1/config/host?apikey=**{{ apikey_dict[outer_item] }}**&host_name={{ item }}&applyconfig=1'
loop: "{{ groups.Linux_remove_machine }}"
register: remove_nagios
You'll probably have to escape the quotation in the URL when running curl
Example of a complete playbook for testing
- hosts: localhost
vars:
apikey_dict: "{{ dict(groups.nagios_server|
zip(groups.nagios_server|
map('extract', hostvars, 'apikey'))) }}"
tasks:
- debug:
var: apikey_dict
- include_tasks: nagios.yml
loop: "{{ groups.nagios_server }}"
loop_control:
loop_var: outer_item
register: check
- debug:
var:
check
gives (abridged)
