Not that Ansible needs Python 2.7+.
How to install (root)
Install should probably be along these lines on OL6.x. It is better to install in such a way that it can cohabit with multiple python versions.
yum install python27 python33 git alternatives --install /usr/bin/python python /usr/bin/python2.7 2 alternatives --install /usr/bin/python python /usr/bin/python3.3 1 scl enable python27 bash pip2 install oci pip2 install ansible git clone https://github.com/oracle/oci-ansible-modules.git cd oci-ansible-modules ./install.py
Sample usage
#1 Switch to the python27 context
scl enable python2.7 bash
#2 Configure the file $HOME/.oci/config with a similar content
[DEFAULT] user=ocid1.user.oc1..xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxa fingerprint=xxxxxxxxxxxxxx key_file=~/.ssh/cloudadmin.pem tenancy=ocid1.tenancy.oc1..axxxx region=eu-frankfurt-1
#3 Configure a sample list_buckets.yml file with a similar content:
- name : List summary of existing buckets in OCI object storage connection: local hosts: localhost tasks: - name: List bucket facts oci_bucket_facts: namespace_name: '<tenant>' compartment_id: 'ocid1.tenancy.oc1..xxxx' register: result - name: Dump result debug: msg: '{{result}}'
#4 Execute the script
ansible-playbook list_buckets.yml
