+Union, intersection and difference of lists
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Starting with Ansible Core 2.16, the builtin filters :ansplugin:`ansible.builtin.union#filter`, :ansplugin:`ansible.builtin.intersect#filter`, :ansplugin:`ansible.builtin.difference#filter` and :ansplugin:`ansible.builtin.symmetric_difference#filter` began to behave differently and do no longer preserve the item order. Items in the resulting lists are returned in arbitrary order and the order can vary between subsequent runs.
+
+The Ansible community.general collection provides the following additional list filters:
+
+- :ansplugin:`community.general.lists_union#filter`
+- :ansplugin:`community.general.lists_intersect#filter`
+- :ansplugin:`community.general.lists_difference#filter`
+- :ansplugin:`community.general.lists_symmetric_difference#filter`
+
+These filters preserve the item order, eliminate duplicates and are an extended version of the builtin ones, because they can operate on more than two lists.
+
+.. note:: Stick to the builtin filters, when item order is not important or when you do not need the n-ary operating mode. The builtin filters are faster, because they rely mostly on sets as their underlying datastructure.
+
+Let us use the lists below in the following examples:
+
+.. code-block:: yaml
+
+ A: [9, 5, 7, 1, 9, 4, 10, 5, 9, 7]
+ B: [4, 1, 2, 8, 3, 1, 7]
+ C: [10, 2, 1, 9, 1]
+
+The union of ``A`` and ``B`` can be written as:
+
+.. code-block:: yaml+jinja
+
+ result: "{{ A | community.general.lists_union(B) }}"
+
+This statement produces:
+
+.. code-block:: yaml
+
+ result: [9, 5, 7, 1, 4, 10, 2, 8, 3]
+
+If you want to calculate the intersection of ``A``, ``B`` and ``C``, you can use the following statement:
+
+.. code-block:: yaml+jinja
+
+ result: "{{ A | community.general.lists_intersect(B, C) }}"
+
+Alternatively, you can use a list of lists as an input of the filter
+
+.. code-block:: yaml+jinja
+
+ result: "{{ [A, B] | community.general.lists_intersect(C) }}"
+
+or
+
+.. code-block:: yaml+jinja
+
+ result: "{{ [A, B, C] | community.general.lists_intersect(flatten=true) }}"
+
+All three statements are equivalent and give:
+
+.. code-block:: yaml
+
+ result: [1]
+
+.. note:: Be aware that in most cases, filter calls without any argument require ``flatten=true``, otherwise the input is returned as result. The reason for this is, that the input is considered as a variable argument and is wrapped by an additional outer list. ``flatten=true`` ensures that this list is removed before the input is processed by the filter logic.
+
+The filters ansplugin:`community.general.lists_difference#filter` or :ansplugin:`community.general.lists_symmetric_difference#filter` can be used in the same way as the filters in the examples above. They calculate the difference or the symmetric difference between two or more lists and preserve the item order.
+
+For example, the symmetric difference of ``A``, ``B`` and ``C`` may be written as:
+
+.. code-block:: yaml+jinja
+
+ result: "{{ A | community.general.lists_symmetric_difference(B, C) }}"
+
+This gives:
+
+.. code-block:: yaml
+
+ result: [5, 8, 3, 1]

+Alibaba Cloud Compute Services Guide
+====================================
+
+Introduction
+````````````
+
+The community.general collection contains several modules for controlling and managing Alibaba Cloud Compute Services (Alicloud). This guide
+explains how to use the Alicloud Ansible modules together.
+
+All Alicloud modules require ``footmark`` - install it on your control machine with ``pip install footmark``.
+
+Cloud modules, including Alicloud modules, are usually executed on your local machine (the control machine) with ``connection: local``, rather than on remote machines defined in your hosts.
+
+Normally, you'll use the following pattern for plays that provision Alicloud resources:
+
+.. code-block:: yaml
+
+ - hosts: localhost
+ connection: local
+ vars:
+ - ...
+ tasks:
+ - ...
+
+Authentication
+``````````````
+
+You can specify your Alicloud authentication credentials (access key and secret key) by passing them as
+environment variables or by storing them in a vars file.
+
+To pass authentication credentials as environment variables:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+ export ALICLOUD_ACCESS_KEY='Alicloud123'
+ export ALICLOUD_SECRET_KEY='AlicloudSecret123'
+
+To store authentication credentials in a vars file, encrypt them with :ref:`Ansible Vault <vault>` to keep them secure, then list them:
+
+.. code-block:: yaml
+
+ ---
+ alicloud_access_key: "--REMOVED--"
+ alicloud_secret_key: "--REMOVED--"
+
+Note that if you store your credentials in a vars file, you need to refer to them in each Alicloud module. For example:
+
+.. code-block:: yaml+jinja
+
+ - community.general.ali_instance:
+ alicloud_access_key: "{{ alicloud_access_key }}"
+ alicloud_secret_key: "{{ alicloud_secret_key }}"
+ image_id: "..."
+
+Provisioning
+````````````
+
+Alicloud modules create Alicloud ECS instances (:ansplugin:`community.general.ali_instance#module`) and retrieve information on these (:ansplugin:`community.general.ali_instance_info#module`).
+
+You can use the ``count`` parameter to control the number of resources you create or terminate. For example, if you want exactly 5 instances tagged ``NewECS``, set the ``count`` of instances to 5 and the ``count_tag`` to ``NewECS``, as shown in the last task of the example playbook below. If there are no instances with the tag ``NewECS``, the task creates 5 new instances. If there are 2 instances with that tag, the task creates 3 more. If there are 8 instances with that tag, the task terminates 3 of those instances.
+
+If you do not specify a ``count_tag``, the task creates the number of instances you specify in ``count`` with the ``instance_name`` you provide.
+
+.. code-block:: yaml+jinja
+
+ # alicloud_setup.yml
+
+ - hosts: localhost
+ connection: local
+
+ tasks:
+ - name: Create a set of instances
+ community.general.ali_instance:
+ instance_type: ecs.n4.small
+ image_id: "{{ ami_id }}"
+ instance_name: "My-new-instance"
+ instance_tags:
+ Name: NewECS
+ Version: 0.0.1
+ count: 5
+ count_tag:
+ Name: NewECS
+ allocate_public_ip: true
+ max_bandwidth_out: 50
+ register: create_instance
+
+In the example playbook above, data about the instances created by this playbook is saved in the variable defined by the ``register`` keyword in the task.
+
+Each Alicloud module offers a variety of parameter options. Not all options are demonstrated in the above example. See each individual module for further details and examples.

+
+Dynamic inventory for Online resources
+--------------------------------------
+
+Ansible has a dynamic inventory plugin that can list your resources.
+
+1. Create a YAML configuration such as ``online_inventory.yml`` with this content:
+
+ .. code-block:: yaml
+
+ plugin: community.general.online
+
+2. Set your ``ONLINE_TOKEN`` environment variable with your token.
+
+ You need to open an account and log into it before you can get a token.
+ You can find your token at the following page: `https://console.online.net/en/api/access <https://console.online.net/en/api/access>`_
+
+3. You can test that your inventory is working by running:
+
+ .. code-block:: console
+
+ $ ansible-inventory -v -i online_inventory.yml --list
+
+
+4. Now you can run your playbook or any other module with this inventory:
+
+ .. code-block:: ansible-output
+
+ $ ansible all -i online_inventory.yml -m ping
+ sd-96735 | SUCCESS => {
+ "changed": false,
+ "ping": "pong"

+Packet.net Guide
+**********************************
+
+Introduction
+============
+
+`Packet.net <https://packet.net>`_ is a bare metal infrastructure host that is supported by the community.general collection through six cloud modules. The six modules are:
+
+- :ansplugin:`community.general.packet_device#module`: manages servers on Packet. You can use this module to create, restart and delete devices.
+- :ansplugin:`community.general.packet_ip_subnet#module`: assign IP subnet to a bare metal server
+- :ansplugin:`community.general.packet_project#module`: create/delete a project in Packet host
+- :ansplugin:`community.general.packet_sshkey#module`: adds a public SSH key from file or value to the Packet infrastructure. Every subsequently-created device will have this public key installed in .ssh/authorized_keys.
+- :ansplugin:`community.general.packet_volume#module`: create/delete a volume in Packet host
+- :ansplugin:`community.general.packet_volume_attachment#module`: attach/detach a volume to a device in the Packet host
+
+Note, this guide assumes you are familiar with Ansible and how it works. If you are not, have a look at their :ref:`docs <ansible_documentation>` before getting started.
+
+Requirements
+============
+
+The Packet modules connect to the Packet API using the `packet-python package <https://pypi.org/project/packet-python/>`_. You can install it with pip:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+ $ pip install packet-python
+
+In order to check the state of devices created by Ansible on Packet, it is a good idea to install one of the `Packet CLI clients <https://www.packet.net/developers/integrations/>`_. Otherwise you can check them through the `Packet portal <https://app.packet.net/portal>`_.
+
+To use the modules you will need a Packet API token. You can generate an API token through the Packet portal `here <https://app.packet.net/portal#/api-keys>`__. The simplest way to authenticate yourself is to set the Packet API token in an environment variable:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+ $ export PACKET_API_TOKEN=Bfse9F24SFtfs423Gsd3ifGsd43sSdfs
+
+If you are not comfortable exporting your API token, you can pass it as a parameter to the modules.
+
+On Packet, devices and reserved IP addresses belong to `projects <https://www.packet.com/developers/api/#projects>`_. In order to use the packet_device module, you need to specify the UUID of the project in which you want to create or manage devices. You can find a project's UUID in the Packet portal `here <https://app.packet.net/portal#/projects/list/table/>`_ (it is just under the project table) or through one of the available `CLIs <https://www.packet.net/developers/integrations/>`_.
+
+
+If you want to use a new SSH key pair in this tutorial, you can generate it to ``./id_rsa`` and ``./id_rsa.pub`` as:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+ $ ssh-keygen -t rsa -f ./id_rsa
+
+If you want to use an existing key pair, just copy the private and public key over to the playbook directory.
+
+
+Device Creation
+===============
+
+The following code block is a simple playbook that creates one `Type 0 <https://www.packet.com/cloud/servers/t1-small/>`_ server (the ``plan`` parameter). You have to supply ``plan`` and ``operating_system``. ``location`` defaults to ``ewr1`` (Parsippany, NJ). You can find all the possible values for the parameters through a `CLI client <https://www.packet.net/developers/integrations/>`_.
+
+.. code-block:: yaml+jinja
+
+ # playbook_create.yml
+
+ - name: Create Ubuntu device
+ hosts: localhost
+ tasks:
+
+ - community.general.packet_sshkey:
+ key_file: ./id_rsa.pub
+ label: tutorial key
+
+ - community.general.packet_device:
+ project_id: <your_project_id>
+ hostnames: myserver
+ operating_system: ubuntu_16_04
+ plan: baremetal_0
+ facility: sjc1
+
+After running ``ansible-playbook playbook_create.yml``, you should have a server provisioned on Packet. You can verify through a CLI or in the `Packet portal <https://app.packet.net/portal#/projects/list/table>`__.
+
+If you get an error with the message "failed to set machine state present, error: Error 404: Not Found", please verify your project UUID.
+
+
+Updating Devices
+================
+
+The two parameters used to uniquely identify Packet devices are: "device_ids" and "hostnames". Both parameters accept either a single string (later converted to a one-element list), or a list of strings.
+
+The ``device_ids`` and ``hostnames`` parameters are mutually exclusive. The following values are all acceptable:
+
+- device_ids: ``a27b7a83-fc93-435b-a128-47a5b04f2dcf``
+
+- hostnames: ``mydev1``
+
+- device_ids: ``[a27b7a83-fc93-435b-a128-47a5b04f2dcf, 4887130f-0ccd-49a0-99b0-323c1ceb527b]``
+
+- hostnames: ``[mydev1, mydev2]``
+
+In addition, hostnames can contain a special ``%d`` formatter along with a ``count`` parameter that lets you easily expand hostnames that follow a simple name and number pattern; in other words, ``hostnames: "mydev%d", count: 2`` will expand to [mydev1, mydev2].
+
+If your playbook acts on existing Packet devices, you can only pass the ``hostname`` and ``device_ids`` parameters. The following playbook shows how you can reboot a specific Packet device by setting the ``hostname`` parameter:
+
+.. code-block:: yaml+jinja
+
+ # playbook_reboot.yml
+
+ - name: reboot myserver
+ hosts: localhost
+ tasks:
+
+ - community.general.packet_device:
+ project_id: <your_project_id>
+ hostnames: myserver
+ state: rebooted
+
+You can also identify specific Packet devices with the ``device_ids`` parameter. The device's UUID can be found in the `Packet Portal <https://app.packet.net/portal>`_ or by using a `CLI <https://www.packet.net/developers/integrations/>`_. The following playbook removes a Packet device using the ``device_ids`` field:
+
+.. code-block:: yaml+jinja
+
+ # playbook_remove.yml
+
+ - name: remove a device
+ hosts: localhost
+ tasks:
+
+ - community.general.packet_device:
+ project_id: <your_project_id>
+ device_ids: <myserver_device_id>
+ state: absent
+
+
+More Complex Playbooks
+======================
+
+In this example, we will create a CoreOS cluster with `user data <https://packet.com/developers/docs/servers/key-features/user-data/>`_.
+
+
+The CoreOS cluster will use `etcd <https://etcd.io/>`_ for discovery of other servers in the cluster. Before provisioning your servers, you will need to generate a discovery token for your cluster:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+ $ curl -w "\n" 'https://discovery.etcd.io/new?size=3'
+
+The following playbook will create an SSH key, 3 Packet servers, and then wait until SSH is ready (or until 5 minutes passed). Make sure to substitute the discovery token URL in ``user_data``, and the ``project_id`` before running ``ansible-playbook``. Also, feel free to change ``plan`` and ``facility``.
+
+.. code-block:: yaml+jinja
+
+ # playbook_coreos.yml
+
+ - name: Start 3 CoreOS nodes in Packet and wait until SSH is ready
+ hosts: localhost
+ tasks:
+
+ - community.general.packet_sshkey:
+ key_file: ./id_rsa.pub
+ label: new
+
+ - community.general.packet_device:
+ hostnames: [coreos-one, coreos-two, coreos-three]
+ operating_system: coreos_beta
+ plan: baremetal_0
+ facility: ewr1
+ project_id: <your_project_id>
+ wait_for_public_IPv: 4
+ user_data: |
+ #cloud-config
+ coreos:
+ etcd2:
+ discovery: https://discovery.etcd.io/<token>
+ advertise-client-urls: http://$private_ipv4:2379,http://$private_ipv4:4001
+ initial-advertise-peer-urls: http://$private_ipv4:2380
+ listen-client-urls: http://0.0.0.0:2379,http://0.0.0.0:4001
+ listen-peer-urls: http://$private_ipv4:2380
+ fleet:
+ public-ip: $private_ipv4
+ units:
+ - name: etcd2.service
+ command: start
+ - name: fleet.service
+ command: start
+ register: newhosts
+
+ - name: wait for ssh
+ ansible.builtin.wait_for:
+ delay: 1
+ host: "{{ item.public_ipv4 }}"
+ port: 22
+ state: started
+ timeout: 500
+ loop: "{{ newhosts.results[0].devices }}"
+
+
+As with most Ansible modules, the default states of the Packet modules are idempotent, meaning the resources in your project will remain the same after re-runs of a playbook. Thus, we can keep the ``packet_sshkey`` module call in our playbook. If the public key is already in your Packet account, the call will have no effect.
+
+The second module call provisions 3 Packet Type 0 (specified using the ``plan`` parameter) servers in the project identified by the ``project_id`` parameter. The servers are all provisioned with CoreOS beta (the ``operating_system`` parameter) and are customized with cloud-config user data passed to the ``user_data`` parameter.
+
+The ``packet_device`` module has a ``wait_for_public_IPv`` that is used to specify the version of the IP address to wait for (valid values are ``4`` or ``6`` for IPv4 or IPv6). If specified, Ansible will wait until the GET API call for a device contains an Internet-routeable IP address of the specified version. When referring to an IP address of a created device in subsequent module calls, it is wise to use the ``wait_for_public_IPv`` parameter, or ``state: active`` in the packet_device module call.
+
+Run the playbook:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+ $ ansible-playbook playbook_coreos.yml
+
+Once the playbook quits, your new devices should be reachable through SSH. Try to connect to one and check if etcd has started properly:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+ tomk@work $ ssh -i id_rsa core@$one_of_the_servers_ip
+ core@coreos-one ~ $ etcdctl cluster-health
+

+The Scaleway modules and inventory script connect to the Scaleway API using `Scaleway REST API <https://developer.scaleway.com>`_.
+To use the modules and inventory script you will need a Scaleway API token.
+You can generate an API token through the `Scaleway console's credential page <https://cloud.scaleway.com/#/credentials>`__.
+The simplest way to authenticate yourself is to set the Scaleway API token in an environment variable:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+ $ export SCW_TOKEN=00000000-1111-2222-3333-444444444444
+
+If you are not comfortable exporting your API token, you can pass it as a parameter to the modules using the ``api_token`` argument.
+
+If you want to use a new SSH key pair in this tutorial, you can generate it to ``./id_rsa`` and ``./id_rsa.pub`` as:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+ $ ssh-keygen -t rsa -f ./id_rsa
+
+If you want to use an existing key pair, just copy the private and public key over to the playbook directory.
+
+How to add an SSH key?
+======================
+
+Connection to Scaleway Compute nodes use Secure Shell.
+SSH keys are stored at the account level, which means that you can reuse the same SSH key in multiple nodes.
+The first step to configure Scaleway compute resources is to have at least one SSH key configured.
+
+:ansplugin:`community.general.scaleway_sshkey#module` is a module that manages SSH keys on your Scaleway account.
+You can add an SSH key to your account by including the following task in a playbook:
+
+.. code-block:: yaml+jinja
+
+ - name: "Add SSH key"
+ community.general.scaleway_sshkey:
+ ssh_pub_key: "ssh-rsa AAAA..."
+ state: "present"
+
+The ``ssh_pub_key`` parameter contains your ssh public key as a string. Here is an example inside a playbook:
+
+
+.. code-block:: yaml+jinja
+
+ - name: Test SSH key lifecycle on a Scaleway account
+ hosts: localhost
+ gather_facts: false
+ environment:
+ SCW_API_KEY: ""
+
+ tasks:
+
+ - community.general.scaleway_sshkey:
+ ssh_pub_key: "ssh-rsa AAAAB...424242 developer@example.com"
+ state: present
+ register: result
+
+ - ansible.builtin.assert:
+ that:
+ - result is success and result is changed
+
+How to create a compute instance?
+=================================
+
+Now that we have an SSH key configured, the next step is to spin up a server!
+:ansplugin:`community.general.scaleway_compute#module` is a module that can create, update and delete Scaleway compute instances:
+
+.. code-block:: yaml+jinja
+
+ - name: Create a server
+ community.general.scaleway_compute:
+ name: foobar
+ state: present
+ image: 00000000-1111-2222-3333-444444444444
+ organization: 00000000-1111-2222-3333-444444444444
+ region: ams1
+ commercial_type: START1-S
+
+Here are the parameter details for the example shown above:
+
+- ``name`` is the name of the instance (the one that will show up in your web console).
+- ``image`` is the UUID of the system image you would like to use.
+ A list of all images is available for each availability zone.
+- ``organization`` represents the organization that your account is attached to.
+- ``region`` represents the Availability Zone which your instance is in (for this example, ``par1`` and ``ams1``).
+- ``commercial_type`` represents the name of the commercial offers.
+ You can check out the Scaleway pricing page to find which instance is right for you.
+
+Take a look at this short playbook to see a working example using ``scaleway_compute``:
+
+.. code-block:: yaml+jinja
+
+ - name: Test compute instance lifecycle on a Scaleway account
+ hosts: localhost
+ gather_facts: false
+ environment:
+ SCW_API_KEY: ""
+
+ tasks:
+
+ - name: Create a server
+ register: server_creation_task
+ community.general.scaleway_compute:
+ name: foobar
+ state: present
+ image: 00000000-1111-2222-3333-444444444444
+ organization: 00000000-1111-2222-3333-444444444444
+ region: ams1
+ commercial_type: START1-S
+ wait: true
+
+ - ansible.builtin.debug:
+ var: server_creation_task
+
+ - ansible.builtin.assert:
+ that:
+ - server_creation_task is success
+ - server_creation_task is changed
+
+ - name: Run it
+ community.general.scaleway_compute:
+ name: foobar
+ state: running
+ image: 00000000-1111-2222-3333-444444444444
+ organization: 00000000-1111-2222-3333-444444444444
+ region: ams1
+ commercial_type: START1-S
+ wait: true
+ tags:
+ - web_server
+ register: server_run_task
+
+ - ansible.builtin.debug:
+ var: server_run_task
+
+ - ansible.builtin.assert:
+ that:
+ - server_run_task is success
+ - server_run_task is changed
+
+Dynamic Inventory Plugin
+========================
+
+Ansible ships with :ansplugin:`community.general.scaleway#inventory`.
+You can now get a complete inventory of your Scaleway resources through this plugin and filter it on
+different parameters (``regions`` and ``tags`` are currently supported).
+
+Let us create an example!
+Suppose that we want to get all hosts that got the tag web_server.
+Create a file named ``scaleway_inventory.yml`` with the following content:
+
+.. code-block:: yaml+jinja
+
+ plugin: community.general.scaleway
+ regions:
+ - ams1
+ - par1
+ tags:
+ - web_server
+
+This inventory means that we want all hosts that got the tag ``web_server`` on the zones ``ams1`` and ``par1``.
+Once you have configured this file, you can get the information using the following command:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+ $ ansible-inventory --list -i scaleway_inventory.yml
+
+The output will be:
+
+.. code-block:: json
+
+ {
+ "_meta": {
+ "hostvars": {
+ "dd8e3ae9-0c7c-459e-bc7b-aba8bfa1bb8d": {
+ "ansible_verbosity": 6,
+ "arch": "x86_64",
+ "commercial_type": "START1-S",
+ "hostname": "foobar",
+ "ipv4": "192.0.2.1",
+ "organization": "00000000-1111-2222-3333-444444444444",
+ "state": "running",
+ "tags": [
+ "web_server"
+ ]
+ }
+ }
+ },
+ "all": {
+ "children": [
+ "ams1",
+ "par1",
+ "ungrouped",
+ "web_server"
+ ]
+ },
+ "ams1": {},
+ "par1": {
+ "hosts": [
+ "dd8e3ae9-0c7c-459e-bc7b-aba8bfa1bb8d"
+ ]
+ },
+ "ungrouped": {},
+ "web_server": {
+ "hosts": [
+ "dd8e3ae9-0c7c-459e-bc7b-aba8bfa1bb8d"
+ ]
+ }
+ }
+
+As you can see, we get different groups of hosts.
+``par1`` and ``ams1`` are groups based on location.
+``web_server`` is a group based on a tag.
+
+In case a filter parameter is not defined, the plugin supposes all values possible are wanted.
+This means that for each tag that exists on your Scaleway compute nodes, a group based on each tag will be created.
+
+Scaleway S3 object storage
+==========================
+
+`Object Storage <https://www.scaleway.com/object-storage>`_ allows you to store any kind of objects (documents, images, videos, and so on).
+As the Scaleway API is S3 compatible, Ansible supports it natively through the amazon.aws modules: :ansplugin:`amazon.aws.s3_bucket#module`, :ansplugin:`amazon.aws.s3_object#module`.
+
+You can find many examples in the `scaleway_s3 integration tests <https://github.com/ansible/ansible-legacy-tests/tree/devel/test/legacy/roles/scaleway_s3>`_.
+
+.. code-block:: yaml+jinja
+
+ - hosts: myserver
+ vars:
+ scaleway_region: nl-ams
+ s3_url: https://s3.nl-ams.scw.cloud
+ environment:
+ # AWS_ACCESS_KEY matches your scaleway organization id available at https://cloud.scaleway.com/#/account
+ AWS_ACCESS_KEY: 00000000-1111-2222-3333-444444444444
+ # AWS_SECRET_KEY matches a secret token that you can retrieve at https://cloud.scaleway.com/#/credentials
+ AWS_SECRET_KEY: aaaaaaaa-bbbb-cccc-dddd-eeeeeeeeeeee
+ module_defaults:
+ group/amazon.aws.aws:
+ s3_url: '{{ s3_url }}'
+ region: '{{ scaleway_region }}'
+ tasks:
+ # use a fact instead of a variable, otherwise template is evaluate each time variable is used
+ - ansible.builtin.set_fact:
+ bucket_name: "{{ 99999999 | random | to_uuid }}"
+
+ # "requester_pays:" is mandatory because Scaleway does not implement related API
+ # another way is to use amazon.aws.s3_object and "mode: create" !
+ - amazon.aws.s3_bucket:
+ name: '{{ bucket_name }}'
+ requester_pays:
+
+ - name: Another way to create the bucket
+ amazon.aws.s3_object:
+ bucket: '{{ bucket_name }}'
+ mode: create
+ encrypt: false
+ register: bucket_creation_check
+
+ - name: add something in the bucket
+ amazon.aws.s3_object:
+ mode: put
+ bucket: '{{ bucket_name }}'
+ src: /tmp/test.txt # needs to be created before
+ object: test.txt
+ encrypt: false # server side encryption must be disabled
