Julien Riou<p>I've spent the morning to include a patch into a home-made debian package for the Ansible awx.awx collection. My patch[1] is not yet merged upstream so I had to backport to the version we use.</p><p>The latest version of AWX has been released more than a year ago. Is the project dead?</p><p>[1] <a href="https://github.com/ansible/awx/pull/15988" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">github.com/ansible/awx/pull/15</span><span class="invisible">988</span></a></p><p><a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/awx" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>awx</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/ansible" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ansible</span></a></p>

Johannes Kastl<p>Just a big shoutout to <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/Ansible" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Ansible</span></a> and <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/AWX" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AWX</span></a> for being able to manage a AWX instance using Ansible.<br>The instance is running in <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/Kubernetes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Kubernetes</span></a>, managed by <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/ArgoCD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ArgoCD</span></a>. But the inner configuration of AWX (LDAP, Teams, Organisations, Permissions, Templates, Projects, Inventories, Credentials) needs to be managed,too. That is where Ansible comes in.</p><p>Next week I will once again have a AWX instance that manages itself by running a job on AWX. Nice, eh?</p><p><a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/InfrastructureAsCode" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>InfrastructureAsCode</span></a> <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/DevOps" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DevOps</span></a> <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/hellyeah" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>hellyeah</span></a></p>
Johannes Kastl<p>Dear <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/AWX" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AWX</span></a> users out there (AWX as in Ansible, not AWS as in Amazon...),</p><p>does anyone have good pointers on connecting AWX and <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/Hashicorp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Hashicorp</span></a> <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/Vault" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Vault</span></a> / <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/OpenBoa" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>OpenBoa</span></a> **without** having to define each secret/credential again in AWX?</p><p>I have set up a basic connection according to the documentation: <a href="https://ansible.readthedocs.io/projects/awx/en/24.6.1/userguide/credential_plugins.html#ug-credentials-hashivault" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">ansible.readthedocs.io/project</span><span class="invisible">s/awx/en/24.6.1/userguide/credential_plugins.html#ug-credentials-hashivault</span></a><br>And I have created a credential using that lookup and could successfully output its value in a playbook run in AWX.</p><p>But having to define a AWX credential for each secret that I need to pull from Vault/OpenBoa sounds like a lot of unnecessary duplication.<br>(Yes, I know you can manage AWX via Ansible. We do that already. But still, you need to define the credentials in your code somewhere for the automation to create it in AWX)</p><p><a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/DevOps" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DevOps</span></a> <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/security" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>security</span></a> <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/InfrastructureAsCode" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>InfrastructureAsCode</span></a> <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/Ansible" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Ansible</span></a></p>
