[ixpmanager] IXPManager API accessed by Ansible inventory plugin/script

[Marinos Dimolianis]

Hello Thomas,

We are using the following Ansible code to retrieve data from the IXP 
Manager and use them in our automated configuration management (in a 
nutshell, we are translating the generated json to yml and use the 
corresponding variables in jinja template files that compose our device 
configuration):

- name: 'Get GRIX IXP manager data' action: uri 
url="https://portal.gr-ix.gr/api/v4/member-export/ixf/1.0 
<https://portal.gr-ix.gr/api/v4/member-export/ixf/1.0>" 
return_content=yes body_format=json # PORTAL (PRODUCTION) register: 
ixpmanager tags: [grix, ixpmanager] - name: 'Create GRIX YAML file' 
template: mode=0660 src=ixpmanager.j2 dest={{ ansible_path 
}}/group_vars/grix/auto_ixp.yml tags: [grix, ixpmanager]

We are using a different url than the one provided above, since we have 
developed our own custom API for our needs.

Best Regards,
Marinos
