John Trowbridge 996baf15b1 Add modify-images role
We use virt-customize for many tasks. Instead of having these tasks
all being implemented in different ways across the various roles,
we can instead have a utility role for that purpose. This allows
us to keep the implementation uniform across those tasks and
provides a single place to fix issues with our virt-customize
implementation.

New roles in quickstart-extras will be expected to use this role
for any virt-customize tasks. Eventually, we will want to port
existing virt-customize tasks to use this new role as well.

modify-image

An Ansible role for modifying an image via the libguestfs tool, virt-customize. The role requires an image and a script to run inside of that image via virt-customize. It also has paramaters for how much memory and cpu to give the virt-customize VM, and a list of artifacts to copy out of the VM after running the script. The script will always produce a log of the same name as the script with .log appended. This can be extracted via the modify_image_extract_list variable.

Requirements

Role Variables

  • image_to_modify -- the image that virt-customize will operate on
  • modify_script -- the script that will be run inside the image
  • modify_image_extract_list -- list of artifacts to extract after the image is modified
  • modify_image_working_dir -- directory containing image and script. This is also where extracted files and logs will end up.
  • modify_image_vc_ram -- amount of RAM to give the virt-customize VM (in MB)
  • modify_image_vc_cpu -- number of CPUs to give the virt-customize VM
  • modify_image_vc_verbose -- whether to run virt-customize with verbose flag
  • modify_image_vc_trace -- whether to run virt-customize with trace flag
