Update Haproxy Configuration

This role can be used to configure an already installed haproxy instance. It is designed to configure rather simple haproxy sidecar instances with straight-forward configurations. You can always use a different template, of course.

Requirements

Installed haproxy.

Role Variables

There is one main variable that drives this role: _update_haproxy_config. It is a map that contains all configuration and settings for this role. Please see defaults/main.yml for details.

Dependencies

None.

Example Playbook

The general contract of this role is to take the variables map _update_haproxy_config from defaults/main.yml as a template for your configuration and pass that configuration as a parameter to this role.

Including an example of how to use your role (for instance, with variables passed in as parameters) is always nice for users too:

- hosts: servers
  var:
    HAPROXY_CONFIG:
      ...
  roles:
     - { role: update_haproxy_config, tags: [ 'haproxy' ] _update_haproxy_config: "{{ HAPROXY_CONFIG }}" }
