FEATURE: Ansible module for appliance info

[caladd]

An Ansible module for returning appliance info.

The module takes a single optional parameter: name for requesting the data for a specific appliance. If name is not provided, then the data for all appliances is returned.

The data returned is a list of appliances.

Example playbook:

---
- hosts: localhost
  tasks:
    - name: Get all appliance info
      stacki_appliance_info:
      register: result

    - name: All appliances output
      debug:
        var: result

    - name: Get info for appliance backend
      stacki_appliance_info:
        name: backend
      register: result

    - name: Appliance backend output
      debug:
        var: result

Output of the debug commands, showing the structure of the data returned:
