Adding a custom column

[keith6014]

I have a command to check if a machine has a particular license. The output is True/False.

The command is

./prdlic getlicense

Is there a way to get all the facts (ansible -m setup --tree out/ ), get license status of host, and place it in a column for a report?

Hi @keith6014:

That's a 2 steps process:

• First, you need to create a custom ansible fact (/etc/ansible/facts.d/YOUR_SCRIPT.fact)
  https://medium.com/opsops/custom-facts-for-ansible-ade5f78d6d94 - which output needs to be valid json
• Lastly, use ansible-cmdb --custom-cols option to add your column: https://github.com/fboender/ansible-cmdb/blob/master/example/cust_cols.conf
