ansible-lxc

Ansible Connection Plugin for lxc containers (https://linuxcontainers.org/) The plugin will use lxc-attach under the hood to connect to containers

INSTALL

$ mkdir -p /etc/ansible/connection_plugins/
$ git clone git@github.com:Mic92/ansible-lxc.git /etc/ansible/connection_plugins/lxc

If your ansible code is already managed by git, you might want to add a submodule instead:

$ mkdir -p /etc/ansible/connection_plugins/
$ git submodule add git@github.com:Mic92/ansible-lxc.git /etc/ansible/connection_plugins/lxc

Then add lxc directory to plugin search path in ansible.cfg:

connection_plugins = /usr/share/ansible_plugins/connection_plugins:/etc/ansible/connection_plugins/lxc

In your hosts file use container name (examplecontainer in this case) as hostname and ansible_connection to lxc:

examplecontainer ansible_connection=lxc
