当使用Ansible配合云构造的时候,Ansible通常使用一个工具像 Packer 来构建镜像,CloudFormation 运行这些镜像, 或者通过用户数据,一旦镜像上线,ansible会被激发.(When using Ansible with CloudFormation, typically Ansible will be used with a tool like Packer to build images, and CloudFormation will launch those images, or ansible will be invoked through user data once the image comes online, or a combination of the two.)

请阅读ansible云构造的例子获取更多的细节.

使用Ansible 构造AWS镜像

Many users may want to have images boot to a more complete configuration rather than configuring them entirely after instantiation. To do this, one of many programs can be used with Ansible playbooks to define and upload a base image, which will then get its own AMI ID for usage with the ec2 module or other Ansible AWS modules such as ec2_asg or the cloudformation module. Possible tools include Packer, aminator, and Ansible’s ec2_ami module.

许多用户想去开机启动更完整的配置而不是安装之后配置.为了这样做,许多程序可以用于ansible playbook定义和上传基本的镜像,这让他们使用 ec2 模块后得到自己的AMI ID,或者其它的Ansible AWS模块例如ec2_asg 或者cloudformation 模块.可能的工具包含 Packer,aminator,和Ansible’s ec2_ami 模块

总的来说,我们发现许多用户使用Packer

Ansible Packer的文档可以在这里找到 https://www.packer.io/docs/provisioners/ansible-local.html.

如果你想采用Packer这时,配置一个基本的镜像使用Ansible在规则之后是可以接受的.

Ansible附带许多模块来配置许多EC2服务.浏览 模块的 “Cloud” 目录查看完整的列表
