export KAMATERA_API_SECRET=

Example playbooks

Get available datacenter locations

Write the available datacenter locations to a JSON file at /tmp/kamatera_datacenters.json

- name: Get capabilities
  hosts: localhost
  tasks:
    - kamatera.kamatera.kamatera_compute_options: {}
      register: datacenters
    - copy:
        content: "{{ datacenters.datacenters | to_nice_json }}"
        dest: "/tmp/kamatera_datacenters.json"

Get available server capabilities

Write the available server capabilities for the selected datacenter to JSON files at:

• /tmp/kamatera_datacenter_capabilities.json
• /tmp/kamatera_datacenter_images.json

- name: Get capabilities
  hosts: localhost
  tasks:
    - kamatera.kamatera.kamatera_compute_options:
        datacenter: "{{ datacenter }}"
      register: capabilities
    - copy:
        content: "{{ capabilities.images | to_nice_json }}"
        dest: "/tmp/kamatera_datacenter_images.json"
    - copy:
        content: "{{ capabilities.capabilities | to_nice_json }}"
        dest: "/tmp/kamatera_datacenter_capabilities.json"

Server provisioning and operations

Create a server, perform various operations on it and terminate it

- name: Provisioning and operations example
  hosts: localhost
  tasks:
    - kamatera.kamatera.kamatera_compute:
        server_names: ['{{ server_name }}_1','{{ server_name }}_2']
        state: present
        datacenter: "{{ datacenter }}"
        image: "{{ image }}"
        cpu_type: "{{ cpu_type }}"
        cpu_cores: "{{ cpu_cores }}"
        ram_mb: "{{ ram_mb }}"
        disk_size_gb: "{{ disk_size_gb }}"
        extra_disk_sizes_gb:
          - "{{ disk_size_2_gb }}"
      register: res
    - kamatera.kamatera.kamatera_compute:
        server_names: '{{ res.server_names }}'
        state: restarted
      register: res
    - kamatera.kamatera.kamatera_compute:
        server_names: '{{ res.server_names }}'
        state: stopped
      register: res
