ansible-aci

The ansible-aci project provides an Ansible collection for managing and automating your Cisco ACI environment. It consists of a set of modules and roles for performing tasks related to ACI.

This collection has been tested and supports ACI 3.2+. Modules supporting new features introduced in ACI API in specific ACI versions might not be supported in earlier ACI releases.

Note: This collection is not compatible with versions of Ansible before v2.8.

Requirements

Ansible v2.14 or newer

Install

Ansible must be installed

sudo pip install ansible

Install the collection

ansible-galaxy collection install cisco.aci

Use

Once the collection is installed, you can use it in a playbook by specifying the full namespace path to the module, plugin and/or role.

- hosts: aci
  gather_facts: no

  tasks:
  - name: Add a new EPG
    cisco.aci.aci_epg:
      hostname: apic
      username: admin
      password: SomeSecretPassword
      tenant: production
      ap: intranet
      epg: web_epg
      description: Web Intranet EPG
      bd: prod_bd
    delegate_to: localhost

Update

Getting the latest/nightly collection build

First Approach

Clone the ansible-aci repository.

git clone https://github.com/CiscoDevNet/ansible-aci.git

Go to the ansible-aci directory

cd ansible-aci

Pull the latest master on your aci

git pull origin master

Build and Install a collection from source

ansible-galaxy collection build --force
ansible-galaxy collection install cisco-aci-* --force

Second Approach

Go to ansible-aci Actions

Select the latest CI build

Under Artifacts download collection and unzip it using Terminal or Console.

Note: The collection file is a zip file containing a tar.gz file. We recommend using CLI because some GUI-based unarchiver might unarchive both nested archives in one go.

Install the unarchived tar.gz file

ansible-galaxy collection install cisco-aci-1.0.0.tar.gz —-force
