Camerata inventory file generator.

Inventory file format

Inventory files are toml v0.2.0 files with three main sections:

bastion (optional)

Specifies connection data regarding the bastion or jumpbox server. It resembles the command line arguments:


-bastion string
        Bastion or jumpbox server
  -bastion-pass string
        Bastion or jumpbox server password (default: same as --pass)
  -bastion-user string
        Bastion or jumpbox server login user (default: same as --user)

In inventory file format

[bastion]
host="host_name_or_ip.to_bastion[:port]"
user="username" # to jump with
password="the_username_secret"

password and user are optional and, if not specified will be taken from the command line arguments.

Servers

This is you servers inventory list.

[servers]
  [servers.some_server_name]
  host="ip_or_hostname[:port]" #default port is 22
  
  user="username" #if it's not present , command line --user option
  
  password="user_secret_word" #if it's not present , command line --pass option or the one prompted in the console.
  
  sudo=false # or true if you want to run modules as root.
  
  sudo_nopass=false # or true if sudo does not ask for password.
	
  use_bastion=false # or true if we need to jump through the [bastion] host.

  [servers.some_other_server]
  host="other_ip_or_hostname"
  user="username"

# and so on...

Modules

Modules are the operation unit. If there's no modules on the inventory file, camerata will loop through the servers list and will connect and disconnect with no further action.

Butt (double t intended ;) if you have a [[modules]] section on your inventory file, camerata will execute each one in order on every server in the servers list.

At the time of this writing, the following modules are available:

Execute camerata with --modules to get a list of available modules and how to use them.

Inventory file format for modules:

[[modules]]
name="test"
args="" #no args, it just execs "whoami" on the server.

[[modules]]
name="copy"
args="source=/path/to/my/file target=/destination/dir/on/server"

[[modules]]
name="command"
args="cat /path/to/my/file" # bash command line
