Artifacts
This operation delegates consumes/produces artifacts decision to the workflow developer. Check Consumes Artifacts on the workflow step editor if this operation requires artifacts to be delivered prior to execution of the script. Check Produces Artifacts on the workflow step editor if this operation creates artifacts. The artifacts folder is available via the FD_ARTIFACTS_DIR variable.
Endpoint Selection
This operation delegates endpoint selection to the workflow developer. The workflow editor will default the selection to "All", which selects all available endpoints associated to the target. Selecting a specific resource will result in selection of endpoints associated to the target which have that resource defined. Ansible must be installed on any endpoint that executes this plugin. The user can use the LOCALHOST endpoint if Ansible is installed on the FlexDeploy server.
Endpoint Execution
This operation delegates endpoint execution to the workflow developer. The workflow editor will default to "Any", which will execute on any one of the selected endpoints, which will be randomly picked from selected endpoints or a specific endpoint where previous step may have executed. Changing this value to "All" to will result in execution on all selected endpoints. This operation will execute on any one of the selected endpoints and will be random in the determination of which one.
ExampleÂ
Below you can see an example of inputs used to install multiple roles from the requirements.yml file.
