Consensus: Admin Users

Creates admin users. Adds an 'ansible' role that provides password-less sudo access, suitable for running Ansible.

Requirements

None.

Role Variables

You'll need to provide a list of admin users under the variable admin_users. You probably want to put this somewhere global, so that these users are consistently created on all servers. However, you're free to set them on a host-by-host basis as well. name and ssh_pub_key are the only required elements.

admin_users:
  - name: ergonlogic                 # Required.
    comment: Christopher Gervais     # Optional, defaults to ''.
    shell: /bin/bash                 # Optional, defaults to '/bin/bash'.
    groups: 'sudo,adm'               # Optional, defaults to 'sudo,adm,ansible'.
    password: "$6$r4r..."            # Optional, defaults to '*', i.e., no password.
    ssh_pub_keys:                    # Required.
      - "ssh-rsa AAAAB3..."

Dependencies

None.

Example Playbook

Include as you would any other role. You can optionally add host-specific users like so:

- hosts: servers
  vars:
    local_admin_users:
      - name: joe
        ssh_pub_keys:
          - "ssh-rsa AAAAB3..."
    admin_users: "{{ admin_users + local_admin_users }}"
  roles:
     - consensus.admin_users
