infra.eda_configuration.rulebook_activation

Description

An Ansible Role to create rulebook activations in EDA Controller.

Variables

Variable Name	Default Value	Required	Description	Example
`eda_host`	””	yes	URL to the EDA Controller (alias: `eda_hostname`)	127.0.0.1
`eda_username`	””	yes	Admin User on the EDA Controller
`eda_password`	””	yes	EDA Controller Admin User’s password on the EDA Controller Server. This should be stored in an Ansible Vault at vars/tower-secrets.yml or elsewhere and called from a parent playbook.
`eda_validate_certs`	`False`	no	Whether or not to validate the Ansible EDA Controller Server’s SSL certificate.
`eda_request_timeout`	`10`	no	Specify the timeout Ansible should use in requests to the EDA Controller host.
`eda_configuration_async_dir`	`null`	no	Sets the directory to write the results file for async tasks. The default value is set to `null` which uses the Ansible Default of `/root/.ansible_async/`.
`eda_rulebook_activations`	`see below`	yes	Data structure describing your rulebook activations, described below.

Secure Logging Variables

The following Variables complement each other. If Both variables are not set, secure logging defaults to false. The role defaults to False as normally the add project task does not include sensitive information. eda_configuration_project_secure_logging defaults to the value of eda_configuration_secure_logging if it is not explicitly called. This allows for secure logging to be toggled for the entire suite of EDA Controller configuration roles with a single variable, or for the user to selectively use it.

Variable Name	Default Value	Required	Description
`eda_configuration_project_secure_logging`	`False`	no	Whether or not to include the sensitive Project role tasks in the log. Set this value to `True` if you will be providing your sensitive values from elsewhere.
`eda_configuration_secure_logging`	`False`	no	This variable enables secure logging as well, but is shared across multiple roles, see above.

Asynchronous Retry Variables

The following Variables set asynchronous retries for the role. If neither of the retries or delay or retries are set, they will default to their respective defaults. This allows for all items to be created, then checked that the task finishes successfully. This also speeds up the overall role.

Variable Name	Default Value	Required	Description
`eda_configuration_async_retries`	50	no	This variable sets the number of retries to attempt for the role globally.
`eda_configuration_project_async_retries`	`eda_configuration_async_retries`	no	This variable sets the number of retries to attempt for the role.
`eda_configuration_async_delay`	1	no	This sets the delay between retries for the role globally.
`eda_configuration_project_async_delay`	`eda_configuration_async_delay`	no	This sets the delay between retries for the role.
