Quay Container Registry Collection for Ansible

Sanity Test Integration Test

Modules

Run the ansible-doc -l infra.quay_configuration command to list the modules that the collection provides. For accessing the documentation of a module, use the ansible-doc infra.quay_configuration.<module-name> command.

You can also access the documentation from Ansible Galaxy.

Roles

Run the ansible-doc -t role -l infra.quay_configuration command to list the roles that the collection provides. For accessing the documentation of a role, use the ansible-doc -t role infra.quay_configuration.<role-name> command.

Name Description
quay_org Create and configure a Quay Container Registry organization

Installing the Collection

Before using the Quay collection, install it by using the Ansible Galaxy command-line tool:

ansible-galaxy collection install infra.quay_configuration

As an alternative, you can declare the collection in a collections/requirements.yml file inside your Ansible project:

---
collections:
  - name: infra.quay_configuration

Use the ansible-galaxy collection install -r collections/requirements.yml command to install the collection from this file. If you manage your Ansible project in automation controller, then automation controller detects this collections/requirements.yml file, and automatically installs the collection.

You can also download the tar archive from Ansible Galaxy, and then manually install the collection.

See Ansible -- Using collections for more details.

Using the Collection

The modules in the collection access Quay through its REST API. The modules can connect to the API by using a username and a password, or by using an OAuth access token.

There are two ways to get an OAuth access token:

  • Use the Quay Container Registry web UI.
  • Use the infra.quay_configuration.quay_first_user Ansible module to create the first user account just after you installed Quay Container Registry. The module creates and then returns an OAuth access token for the user. This token is only valid for 2 hours and 30 minutes.

Creating an OAuth Access Token by Using the Web UI

Before you can use the collection, you must generate an OAuth access token. To do so, follow these steps:

  1. Log in to the Quay Container Registry web UI.
  2. Use an existing organization or create a new one.
  3. In the organization, create an application.
  4. In the application, select the Generate Token menu.
  5. Select the permissions to associate to the token. To be able to use all the modules in the collection, select Administer Organization, Administer Repositories, Create Repositories, Super User Access, and Administer User.
  6. Click Generate Token.
  7. Copy and then paste the token string into the quay_token module parameter.

The OAuth access token is linked to the user account you use to create it. Your user account needs to have superuser permissions for some modules to operate correctly. For example, to manage user accounts, the infra.quay_configuration.quay_user module needs a token created by a user that have superuser permissions.

See the Quay.io API documentation for more details.

Getting an OAuth Access Token when Creating the First User

Just after you installed Quay Container Registry, and before you do anything else, you can create the first user and generate an OAuth access token for that user.

After this initial operation, you can create additional user accounts by using the infra.quay_configuration.quay_user module and generate OAuth access tokens for these additional accounts by using the infra.quay_configuration.quay_api_token module.

The following playbook example uses the infra.quay_configuration.quay_first_user module to create the first user:

---
- name: Bootstrapping a fresh Quay Container Registry installation
  hosts: localhost

  tasks:
    # You must probably ensure that the user account you create, admin in this
    # example, has superuser permissions so that you can use the generated
    # token to create additional objects.
    # To give the user superuser permissions, add its name to the SUPER_USERS
    # section in the config.yaml file.
    - name: Ensure the initial user exists
      infra.quay_configuration.quay_first_user:
        username: admin
        email: [email protected]
        password: S6tGwo13
        create_token: true
        quay_host: https://quay.example.com
        validate_certs: true
      register: result

    # The token is valid for 2 hours and 30 minutes
    - name: Display the generated OAuth access token
      debug:
        msg: "Access token: {{ result['access_token'] }}"

    # Using the OAuth access token to continue configuring Quay
    - name: Ensure the user exists
      infra.quay_configuration.quay_user:
        username: lvasquez
        email: [email protected]
        password: vs9mrD55NP
        state: present
        quay_token: "{{ result['access_token'] }}"
        quay_host: https://quay.example.com
        validate_certs: true

The requirements for the infra.quay_configuration.quay_first_user module are as follows:

  • You must use Quay version 3.6 or later.
  • You must enable the first user creation feature (FEATURE_USER_INITIALIZE in config.yaml).
  • You must use the internal database for user authentication (AUTHENTICATION_TYPE to Database in config.yaml or Internal Authentication to Local Database in the configuration web UI).
  • You probably want the first user to have superuser permissions. To do so, add this user account to the SUPER_USERS section in the config.yaml file.

Grouping Common Module Parameters

When your play calls multiple modules from the collection, you can group common module parameters in the module_defaults section, under the group/infra.quay_configuration.quay subsection. For example, instead of repeating the quay_host, quay_username, and quay_password parameters in each task, you can declare them at the top of your play:

---
- name: Creating the development organization and the developers team
  hosts: localhost

  module_defaults:
    group/infra.quay_configuration.quay:
      quay_host: https://quay.example.com
      quay_username: admin
      quay_password: S6tGwo13

  tasks:
    - name: Ensure the organization exists
      infra.quay_configuration.quay_organization:
        name: development
        email: [email protected]
        time_machine_expiration: "1d"
        state: present

    - name: Ensure the additional user exists
      infra.quay_configuration.quay_user:
        username: dwilde
        email: [email protected]
        password: 7BbB8T6c
        state: present

    - name: Ensure the team exists in the development organization
      infra.quay_configuration.quay_team:
        name: developers
        organization: development
        role: creator
        members:
          - lvasquez
          - dwilde
        append: false
        state: present
