Dynamic inventory for Online resources

Ansible has a dynamic inventory plugin that can list your resources.

1. Create a YAML configuration such as online_inventory.yml with this content:

   plugin: community.general.online
   

2. Set your ONLINE_TOKEN environment variable with your token.

   You need to open an account and log into it before you can get a token. You can find your token at the following page: https://console.online.net/en/api/access

3. You can test that your inventory is working by running:

   $ ansible-inventory -v -i online_inventory.yml --list
   

4. Now you can run your playbook or any other module with this inventory:

   $ ansible all -i online_inventory.yml -m ping
   sd-96735 | SUCCESS => {
       "changed": false,
       "ping": "pong"
   }
