Guidelines for playbook: File dependencies

Intro

There are cases, where the playbook task requires specific files in order to run. For example, the get_uptime_low_reason.yaml requires show-system-files.awk and search_file.py.j2

The files need to be located inside the files folder under the playbook folder.

Development

The files will be located under indeni-knowledge repository, under:

indeni-knowledge/automation/playbooks/files

Deployment

Similar to the rules, the files will be copied to indeni-knowledge folder, under:

/usr/share/indeni-knowledge/stable/automation/playbooks/files

Whenever IKE’s would like to run/test new playbook, they will be able to copy the playbook to the path and test it.
