vaultfly 1.0.18

Ansible vault automation for ssh connections which may also require a token

# vaultfly
Ansible login automation using ansible vault with templating and password tokens

## What
- vaultfly is for automating ssh login when you need to use a token

## Install

```bash
pip install vaultfly --user
```

## Tokens (the hard part)
- To generate the token, you need access to the token definition file.
- Most likely you dont have access to that.
- The work arround is to generate your own and use that.
- I use 'python-vipaccess2'. It will generate a Symantec compatible token
- pip install python-vipaccess2 or pipenv....
- instructions can be found at https://github.com/chris17453/vipaccessUI

## Help

optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit

Commands:
-i, --init init user config
-b, --build build a new vault file
-r, --random-pass generate a random password and save it to the password
file

Config:
-v VAULT_FILE, --vault-file VAULT_FILE
login vault file to create
-vt VAULT_TEMPLATE, --vault-template VAULT_TEMPLATE

-p PASSWORD_FILE, --password-file PASSWORD_FILE
single line text file with used for vault password
-t, --token use token with password in (password+token)

Display:
-sc, --show-config view config file
-sv, --show-vault view vault file
-vvv, --verbose Display more execution info

```


## Walkthrough
```bash
# create a user config with a random password file
[test]$ vaultfly -i -p test.pass -c test.config

Password file is invalid, Create random password? [y/N] y

Enter SSH credentials that anssible will connect with:
User [nd]:chris17453
Password:

# view password file
[test]$ cat test.pass
iroen@yh#Ts5fV04*BWcvRFj$HLDazZd

# view config file
[test]$ cat test.config

## How to use with ansible?
- First I created a template called tpl.vault
```yaml
ansible_become: true
ansible_become_method: su
ansible_user: 'user'
ansible_become_exe: 'sudo su -'
```
- Next then made an inventory - > inventory.ini
```yaml
[test]
test-box1.com.internal
test-box2.com.internal
```
- Then I made an ansible play -> copy.yaml
```yaml
---
- hosts: test
gather_facts: False
tasks:
- name: Copy stuff if this is -> test-box1.com.internal
copy:
src: ../code/
dest: /tmp/placetoputstuff
owner: user
group: group
when: inventory_hostname == "test-box1.com.internal"

- name: Copy stuff if this is -> test-box2.com.internal
copy:
src: ../code/
dest: /tmp/different_placetoputstuff
owner: user
group: group
when: inventory_hostname == "test-box2.com.internal"
```
- Finally I run the play everytime I want to upload some files
```bash

#build a new vault with a token
vaultfly -b -t -vt tpl.vault -p my-pass-file -c my-config-file -v group_vars/all
# run the play
ansible-playbook -i inventory.ini copy.yaml
```

## updates
- I will make updates as required giving time

## notes
- 'make standalone' will build no dependency executable in "dist/"
