+***************************
+Using Scaleway with Ansible
+***************************
+
+.. _scaleway_introduction:
+
+Introduction
+============
+
+`Scaleway <https://scaleway.com>`_ is a cloud provider supported by Ansible, version 2.6 or higher via a dynamic inventory plugin and modules.
+Those modules are:
+
+- :ref:`scaleway_sshkey_module`: adds a public SSH key from a file or value to the Packet infrastructure. Every subsequently-created device will have this public key installed in .ssh/authorized_keys.
+- :ref:`scaleway_compute_module`: manages servers on Scaleway. You can use this module to create, restart and delete servers.
+- :ref:`scaleway_volume_module`: manages volumes on Scaleway.
+
+.. note::
+ This guide assumes you are familiar with Ansible and how it works.
+ If you're not, have a look at :ref:`ansible_documentation` before getting started.
+
+.. _scaleway_requirements:
+
+Requirements
+============
+
+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'll need a Scaleway API token.
+You can generate an API token via the Scaleway console `here <https://cloud.scaleway.com/#/credentials>`__.
+The simplest way to authenticate yourself is to set the Scaleway API token in an environment variable:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ $ export SCW_TOKEN=00000000-1111-2222-3333-444444444444
+
+If you're 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 keypair in this tutorial, you can generate it to ``./id_rsa`` and ``./id_rsa.pub`` as:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ $ ssh-keygen -t rsa -f ./id_rsa
+
+If you want to use an existing keypair, just copy the private and public key over to the playbook directory.
+
+.. _scaleway_add_sshkey:
+
+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 re-use the same SSH key in multiple nodes.
+The first step to configure Scaleway compute resources is to have at least one SSH key configured.
+
+:ref:`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
+
+ - name: "Add SSH key"
+ 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
+
+ # SCW_API_KEY='XXX' ansible-playbook ./test/legacy/scaleway_ssh_playbook.yml
+
+ - name: Test SSH key lifecycle on a Scaleway account
+ hosts: localhost
+ gather_facts: no
+ environment:
+ SCW_API_KEY: ""
+
+ tasks:
+
+ - scaleway_sshkey:
+ ssh_pub_key: "ssh-rsa AAAAB...424242 developer@example.com"
+ state: present
+ register: result
+
+ - assert:
+ that:
+ - result is success and result is changed
+
+.. _scaleway_create_instance:
+
+How to create a compute instance?
+=================================
+
+Now that we have an SSH key configured, the next step is to spin up a server!
+:ref:`scaleway_compute_module` is a module that can create, update and delete Scaleway compute instances:
+
+.. code-block:: yaml
+
+ - name: Create a server
+ 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
+
+ # SCW_TOKEN='XXX' ansible-playbook ./test/legacy/scaleway_compute.yml
+
+ - name: Test compute instance lifecycle on a Scaleway account
+ hosts: localhost
+ gather_facts: no
+ environment:
+ SCW_API_KEY: ""
+
+ tasks:
+
+ - name: Create a server
+ register: server_creation_task
+ 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
+
+ - debug: var=server_creation_task
+
+ - assert:
+ that:
+ - server_creation_task is success
+ - server_creation_task is changed
+
+ - name: Run it
+ 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
+
+ - debug: var=server_run_task
+
+ - assert:
+ that:
+ - server_run_task is success
+ - server_run_task is changed
+
+.. _scaleway_dynamic_inventory_tutorial:
+
+Dynamic Inventory Script
+========================
+
+Ansible ships with :ref:`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's 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
+
+ plugin: 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:
+
+::
+
+ $ ansible-inventory --list -i scaleway_inventory.yml
+
+ {
+ "_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.
