Not quite sure if it is this galaxy module problem but when I install it using galaxy the template file name is .yml.j2 rather than filebeat.yml.j2 which causes error when using the role.

My requirements file is like this and I ran the command specified in the first comment line.

cat requirements.yml

run like this ansible-galaxy --roles-path roles/ install -r requirements.yml

• src: https://github.com/DavidWittman/ansible-filebeat.git
  version: master
  name: filebeat

Suppose I have three applications: web, app and database. How can I create three different profiles with same DavidWittman/ansible-filebeat role?

For example, I define a var file as below which will be applied to all servers (common role)

filebeat_config:
    filebeat:
      prospectors:
        - paths:
            - /var/log/messages
            - /var/log/secure
            - /var/log/*.log
          document_type: syslog
          fields:
             type: syslog
    output:
      elasticsearch:
        hosts:
          - logstash01:6782
          - logstash02:6782
        timeout: 15
        tls: 
          certificate_authorities:
             - /etc/pki/tls/certs/logstash_cert.crt
          certificate: /etc/pki/tls/certs/logstash_cert.crt
          certificate_key: /etc/pki/tls/private/logstash_key.crt
    logging:
      to_syslog: true
      level: error

Then I need define a new filebeat config to support type of apache for web servers only, what can I do ?

Looks like the example configuration link has moved, it would be great to have this active so I can set this up easier.

Thanks

Need to tag a new release and update in Galaxy

Hi,

Ansible 2.0 support multiline ansible_managed but seems to_yaml filter does not correctly work in this case.

Example:

cat /etc/filebeat/filebeat.yml 
# This file managed by Ansible.

Do not edit it manually.
All changes will be overwritten.
Thank you.

filebeat:
  prospectors:
  - document_type: apache
...

fatal: [x.x.x.x]: FAILED! => {"failed": true, "msg": "/usr/local/etc/ansible/roles/DavidWittman.filebeat/tasks/RedHat.yml must be stored as a dictionary/hash"}

This happens on OS X, because HFS+ is not (by default) case-sensitive. Changing the names of the task yml files fixes the issue.
