client_cert

path

PEM formatted certificate chain file to be used for SSL client authentication.

This file can also include the key as well, and if the key is included, `client_key` is not required.

client_key

path

PEM formatted file that contains your private key to be used for SSL client authentication.

If `client_cert` contains both the certificate and key, this option is not required.

compose

dictionary

Create vars from jinja2 expressions.

Default: {}

force

boolean

If yes do not get a cached copy.

Choices:

• false ← (default)
• true

force_basic_auth

boolean

Credentials specified with `url_username` and `url_password` should be passed in HTTP Header.

Choices:

• false ← (default)
• true

groups

dictionary

Add hosts to group based on Jinja2 conditionals.

Default: {}

http_agent

string

Header to identify as, generally appears in web server logs.

Default: "ansible-httpget"

keyed_groups

list / elements=dictionary

Add hosts to group based on the values of a variable.

Default: []

default_value

string

added in ansible-core 2.12

The default value when the host variable’s value is an empty string.

This option is mutually exclusive with keyed_groups[].trailing_separator.

key

string

The key from input dictionary used to generate groups.

parent_group

string

parent group for keyed group.

prefix

string

A keyed group name will start with this prefix.

Default: ""

separator

string

separator used to build the keyed group name.

Default: "_"

trailing_separator

boolean

added in ansible-core 2.12

Set this option to false to omit the keyed_groups[].separator after the host variable when the value is an empty string.

This option is mutually exclusive with keyed_groups[].default_value.

Choices:

• false
• true ← (default)

leading_separator

boolean

added in ansible-core 2.11

Use in conjunction with keyed_groups.

By default, a keyed group that does not have a prefix or a separator provided will have a name that starts with an underscore.

This is because the default prefix is "" and the default separator is "_".

Set this option to false to omit the leading underscore (or other separator) if no prefix is given.

If the group name is derived from a mapping the separator is still used to concatenate the items.

To not use a separator in the group name at all, set the separator for the keyed group to an empty string instead.

Choices:

• false
• true ← (default)

plugin

string / required

Name of the plugin

Choices:

• "telekom_mms.icinga_director.icinga_director_inventory"

strict

boolean

If yes make invalid entries a fatal error, otherwise skip and continue.

Since it is possible to use facts in the expressions they might not always be available and we ignore those errors by default.

Choices:

• false ← (default)
• true

url

string / required

Icinga URL to connect to

url_password

string

The password for use in HTTP basic authentication.

If the `url_username` parameter is not specified, the `url_password` parameter will not be used.

url_username

string

The username for use in HTTP basic authentication.

This parameter can be used without `url_password` for sites that allow empty passwords

use_extra_vars

Merge extra vars into the available variables for composition (highest precedence).

Choices:

• false ← (default)

  use_extra_vars = false
  

• Environment variable: ANSIBLE_INVENTORY_USE_EXTRA_VARS

use_gssapi

boolean

Use GSSAPI to perform the authentication, typically this is for Kerberos or Kerberos through Negotiate authentication.

Credentials for GSSAPI can be specified with `url_username`/ `url_password`
