Writing an Ansible playbook where we pull projects from GIT repos and thereafter apply all pulled yamls to a Kubernetes cluster.
I see only an example to apply single yaml files to a Kubernetes cluster but not multiple ones at once. e.g.:
- name: Apply metrics-server manifest to the cluster.
community.kubernetes.k8s:
state: present
src: ~/metrics-server.yaml
Is there any way of applying multiple yaml files? Something like:
- name: Apply Services to the cluster.
community.kubernetes.k8s:
state: present
src: ~/svc-*.yaml
Or:
- name: Apply Ingresses to the cluster.
community.kubernetes.k8s:
state: present
dir: ~/ing/
Is there maybe another Ansible K8s module I should be looking at maybe?
Or should we just run kubectl commands directly in Ansible tasks. e.g.:
- name: Apply Ingresses to the cluster.
command: kubectl apply -f ~/ing/*.yamlWhat is the best way to achieve this using Ansible?
You can use k8s Ansible module along with 'with_fileglob' recursive pattern. Below code should work for your requirement.
- name: Apply K8s resources
k8s:
definition: "{{ lookup('template', '{{ item }}') | from_yaml }}"
with_fileglob:
- "~/ing/*.yaml"
