Re: [ansible-project] Re: Creating Dynamic Inventory with CloudFormation Outputs

[Stephen Granger]

Just a quick response, some what self promoting but hopefully helpful.

https://github.com/ansible/ansible-modules-extras/pull/2329
cloudformation_facts module

I'd previously put together a lookup plugin (mainly through combining
others efforts)
https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/12880
I'm going to make the time to rewrite this using boto3 and try and get it
completed before the end of July.

This will give you the resources that were created by the cloudformation
stacks. It's also possible to use the ec2_facts,
http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/ec2_facts_module.html and  ec2_remote_facts
http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/ec2_remote_facts_module.html to get a list
of the ec2 instances and then iterate them through through the add_host
http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/add_host_module.html to add them to an
in-memory inventory.

Similar to the example here,
http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/ec2_module.html#examples

[Mocking Bird]

I have the same question. Why there isn't any answer here?
