ansibletools 0.2.0

ansible-tools

This is a set of wrappers around the ansible, ansible-playbook and ansible-vault commands
which integrate with the system keyring to retrieve the vault password.
It should work on both Linux and macOS.
Installation

On macOS, with Homebrew: brew install lvillani/tap/ansible-tools;
With Pip: pip install --user ansible-tools;

It is best, however, to install ansible-tools in a Virtualenv, along with the version of Ansible
you are using.
Overview

ansible-vault-helper: Used by users to setup keyring integration, called by Ansible to obtain a
Vault unlock password.
vaultify: Wraps Ansible commands such as ansible, ansible-playbook and ansible-playbook so
that the Vault is automatically unlocked with the password stored in the system's keyring.
ansible-local: Wrapper to run Ansible locally.
ansible-mkpasswd: Generates an encrypted password that can be used with the user module (see also
here)

Usage
Go to the same directory that contains your playbooks and then run:
ansible-vault-helper --update

You will be prompted for a vault name (which can be anything) and the unlock password. The former is
stored in ansible.cfg alongside your playbooks, the latter is securely stored in your keyring.
At this point you can run Ansible as usual but precede the command with vaultify. That is, to
start a playbook run:
vaultify ansible-playbook site.yml

We also ship a tool to easily apply a playbook on the current system called ansible-local which is
composable with vaultify.
Aliases
Here's a list of handy shell aliases to make your life easier. They were tested on fish but should
work also on Bash and Zsh:
alias v="vault"
alias ansible="vaultify ansible"
alias ansible-playbook="vaultify ansible-playbook"
