Molecule Hetzner Cloud Plugin :: run molecule tests with hetzner cloud

Molecule Hetzner Cloud Plugin

A Hetzner Cloud plugin for Molecule.

This plugin allows you to do molecule init role myrolename -d hetznercloud and have Molecule provision on-demand Hetzner Cloud VPSes of your choice for your integration testing. New VPSes will be automagically created and provisioned on each molecule test run, SSH keys are generated and managed internally and all resources are cleaned up regardless of whether the role under test succeeds or fails.

Support

If you use this plugin in a commercial setting or you find it personally useful, please support my maintenance work financially through my Liberapay profile or through my Github Sponsor profile. I do not receive any financial support from RedHat or Hetzner Cloud for this work.

Usage

You need to expose a HCLOUD_TOKEN environment variable in your environment. Find out more about how to get one of those over here.

$ export HCLOUD_TOKEN=mycoolapitoken

Then install the required Python package.

$ pip install molecule-hetznercloud
$ molecule init role myrolename -d hetznercloud

Your myrolename/molecule/default/molecule.yml should then look like the following.

---
dependency:
  name: galaxy
driver:
  name: hetznercloud
platforms:
  - name: my-instance-name
    server_type: cx11
    image: debian-10
provisioner:
  name: ansible
verifier:
  name: ansible

Please see docs.hetzner.cloud for information regarding images and server types.

Then just run the role.

$ cd myrolename && molecule test

To ease initial debugging for getting things started, also expose the following environment variables.

$ export MOLECULE_NO_LOG=False  # not so verbose, helpful
$ export MOLECULE_DEBUG=True  # very verbose, last ditch effort
