Linode external inventory script
=================================

Generates inventory that Ansible can understand by making API request to
AWS Linode using the Chube library.

NOTE: This script assumes Ansible is being executed where Chube is already
installed and has a valid config at ~/.chube. If not, run:

    pip install chube
    echo -e "---\napi_key: <YOUR API KEY GOES HERE>" > ~/.chube

For more details, see: https://github.com/exosite/chube

NOTE: This script also assumes that the Linodes in your account all have
labels that correspond to hostnames that are in your resolver search path.
Your resolver search path resides in /etc/hosts.

When run against a specific host, this script returns the following variables:

    - api_id
    - datacenter_id
    - datacenter_city (lowercase city name of data center, e.g. 'tokyo')
    - label
    - display_group
    - create_dt
    - total_hd
    - total_xfer
    - total_ram
    - status
    - public_ip (The first public IP found)
    - private_ip (The first private IP found, or empty string if none)
    - alert_cpu_enabled
    - alert_cpu_threshold
    - alert_diskio_enabled
    - alert_diskio_threshold
    - alert_bwin_enabled
    - alert_bwin_threshold
    - alert_bwout_enabled
    - alert_bwout_threshold
    - alert_bwquota_enabled
    - alert_bwquota_threshold
    - backup_weekly_daily
    - backup_window
    - watchdog

Peter Sankauskas did most of the legwork here with his linode plugin; I
just adapted that for Linode.
