Tutorial to integrate Ansible provisioning with Amazos EC2 platform

Ansible Amazon AWS EC2 Provision:

Tutorial to integrate Ansible provisioning with Amazon EC2 platform, using an Ubuntu 14.04 LTS Desktop and creating an Ubuntu 14.04 LTS Server.

Install:

• Install Ansible last version:

$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install software-properties-common
$ sudo apt-add-repository ppa:ansible/ansible
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install ansible

• Install boto (python lib):

$ sudo apt-get install python-pip
$ pip install -U boto

• Clone the repository inside /etc/ansible. Warning: it will replace your ansible files;

• Create the ssh key (~/.ssh/id_ansible) and import it to EC2. Note the ssh key name, if you use a different name, change it inside /etc/ansible/hosts;

$ ssh-keygen -t rsa -f ~/.ssh/id_ansible

• Change the file /etc/ansible/ec2_creation/vars/all.yml according the information about your EC2 environment, for example:

---
ec2_config:
    region: us-west-2
    zone: us-west-2c
    #Change it according the name that you put in Amazon
    keypair: ansible
    instance_type: t1.micro
    #It create a Ubuntu 14.04LTS
    image: ami-6989a659
    #Your subnet
    vpc_subnet_id: subnet-e7b7f8be
    #An security group name created at Amazon
    group: [lamp]
    assign_public_ip: true
    volume_size: 8
    instance_tag_name: TagNomeApp
    remote_user: ubuntu
    #The path to your local ssh file
    ssh_path: ~/.ssh/id_ansible

• Export your Amazon credential to environment variables;

$ export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=YOURKEYID
$ export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=YOUSECRETKEY

• Inside /etc/ansible/ec2_creation Run the command:

$ ansible-playbook -i hosts playbook.yml --private-key=[your ssh key file] -vvvv
