Ansible layer

/TakeV/spacemacs/media/commit/1ee7a9a640b16d268abb8de1ec99761c92e2faa3/layers/+tools/ansible/img/ansible.png

Description

This layer adds support for editing Ansible configuration files in Spacemacs.

Features:

  • Syntax highlighting for Ansible-flavored YAML and Jinja2 templates.
  • Auto-completion via company-ansible.
  • Integration of ansible-vault into emacs for automatic encryption/decryption of files.

Install

To use this configuration layer, add it to your ~/.spacemacs. You will need to add ansible to the existing dotspacemacs-configuration-layers list in this file.

Configuration

ansible-vault

Password

To use ansible-vault you have to provide the path to a file containing the password to use somewhere in your dotspacemacs/user-config function. For instance:

  (setq ansible-vault-password-file "path/to/pwd/file")

The default value is the ansible-vault default value: ~/.vault_pass.txt.

For now Ansible does not handle multiple passwords in the vault file (see https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/13243). To work around this limitation directory local variables can be used to define a different password file for a given environment. Example:

  ;;; Directory Local Variables
  ;;; For more information see (info "(emacs) Directory Variables")

  ((yaml-mode . ((ansible-vault-password-file . "path/to/vault_file"))))

Automatic encryption and decryption

This layer comes preconfigured with automatic encryption/decryption of encrypted files using ansible-vault so it is possible to edit seamlessly any encrypted files.

If you want to disable this feature then set the layer variable ansible-auto-encrypt-decrypt to nil.

  (ansible :variables ansible-auto-encrypt-decrypt t)
