Ansible Automation Platform Configuration as Code examples template

This is a combination of all the Red Hat CoP Config as Code collections to deploy and configure AAP. This is built for multi environment (meaning multiple AAP instances/clusters). If you want an object across all environments put it in the correct file/list under the all group. If there is a specific object for only one environment then put it under that environments folder¹.

You will need to replace the vault files with your own with these variables:

---
cloud_token: 'this is the one from console.redhat.com'
offline_token: 'this is the one linked below about api token'
rh_username: 'redhat user login (this is used to attach your subs to controller)'
rh_password: 'password for redhat account'
root_machine_pass: 'password for root user on builder (if not root user more changes will need to be made)'
ah_token_password: 'this will create and use this password can be generated'
controller_api_user_pass: 'this will create and use this password can be generated'
controller_pass: 'admin account pass for controller, if none is given it will default to Password1234!'
ah_pass: 'hub admin account pass, if none is given it will default to Password1234!'
vault_pass: 'the password to decrypt this vault'
...

NOTE: Do not forget to update your inventory files replacing the HERE lines, if you do not have a builder server you can use hub for this. Also update scm_url in group_vars/all/projects.yml with your git URL.
