Introduction

digdeo-ansible-syspass is a ansible lookup plugin write in python.

That program is a ansible plugin interface it use digdeo-syspass-client to dialog with the syspass API.

It plugin is dedicated to lookup password's from a syspass server.

Installation

Normal installation

python3 -m venv venv
. venv/bin/activate
pip install digdeo-syspass-ansible-lookup

Force a Ansible version

python3 -m venv venv
. venv/bin/activate
pip install wheel "ansible == 2.7.17"
pip install digdeo-syspass-ansible-lookup

Force libxml

On Linux (and most other well-behaved operating systems), pip will manage to build the source distribution as long as libxml2 and libxslt are properly installed, including development packages, i.e. header files, etc.

See the requirements section above and use your system package management tool to look for packages like libxml2-dev or libxslt-devel. If the build fails, make sure they are installed.

Alternatively, setting STATIC_DEPS=true will download and build both libraries automatically in their latest version, e.g.

STATIC_DEPS=true pip install lxml.

Note that module use digdeo-syspass-client python module Please pay attention about config.yml file in case you need more information's.

DISCLAIMER:
This module has been heavily inspired by https://github.com/ansible/ansible/blob/devel/lib/ansible/plugins/lookup/password.py for password generation and term handling and thus is under GPL.

short_description: get syspass user password and syspass API client
description:
- This lookup returns the contents from Syspass database, a user's password more specificly. Other functions are also implemented for further use.
ansible_version: ansible 2.7.17 and more with mitogen
python_version: 3.5 and more
syspass_version: 3.0, 3.1

Ansible usage:

Example 1

Vars set inside common ansible sub-structure directory

In case you use the group name all.

• Create a sub directory structure ./group_vars/all and enter inside it directory
• copy paste you variable with right value inside a file name syspass.yml

syspass_auth_token: ##################################################
syspass_token_pass: ##################################################
syspass_verify_ssl: True
syspass_api_url: ##################################################
syspass_api_version: 3.1
syspass_debug: False
syspass_debug_level: 3
syspass_verbose: True
syspass_verbose_level: 3

• start you playbook with ansible-playbook playbook.yml

Example 2

Vars set inside the playbook file

In case you use the group name all the playbook can look like that:

--- # -*- mode: yaml; coding: utf-8 -*-

- hosts: all
  vars:
    syspass_default_length: 42
    syspass_auth_token: ##################################################
    syspass_token_pass: ##################################################
    syspass_verify_ssl: True
    syspass_api_url: ##################################################
    syspass_api_version: 3.1
    syspass_debug: False
    syspass_debug_level: 3
    syspass_verbose: True
    syspass_verbose_level: 3
  tasks:
    - name: SysPass | Force virtual Environement
      set_fact:
        ansible_python_interpreter: "/usr/bin/env python"
    - name: SysPass | Minimal test | get and if not exist insert
      debug:
        msg: "{{ lookup('syspass', 'Account Name minimal', login='mylogin', category='MySQL', customer='PREP') }}"
      register: pass1
      changed_when: false
    - name: SysPass | Minimal test | get and compare
      debug:
        msg: "{{ lookup('syspass', 'Account Name minimal', login='mylogin', category='MySQL', customer='PREP') }}"
      register: pass2
      changed_when: pass1.msg == pass2.msg
      failed_when: pass1.msg != pass2.msg

Ansible Vault usage:

In case you use the group name all.

• Create a sub directory structure ./group_vars/all and enter inside it directory
• use command line interface for create syspass.yml file ansible-vault create syspass.yml
• edit the syspass.yml file ansible-vault edit syspass.yml
• copy paste you variable with right value inside syspass.yml file

syspass_auth_token: ##################################################
syspass_token_pass: ##################################################
syspass_verify_ssl: True
syspass_api_url: ##################################################
syspass_api_version: 3.1
syspass_debug: False
syspass_debug_level: 3
syspass_verbose: True
syspass_verbose_level: 3

• create a file to store the vault password echo "password1234" > /my_directory/vault_passwd"
• export env var DEFAULT_VAULT_PASSWORD_FILE via export DEFAULT_VAULT_PASSWORD_FILE="/my_directory/vault_passwd"
• start you playbook with ansible-playbook --vault-password-file=$DEFAULT_VAULT_PASSWORD_FILE playbook.yml
