New Rundeck integration available

[Adam Mendlik]

For any Rundeck users out there:

https://github.com/amendlik/salt-gen-resource

I've created a script to create node resources in Rundeck using Salt Mine. It also allows you to create node attributes and/or tags from any Salt grain. Testing has been fairly limited, so please let me know if you run into problems. I'm happy to take suggestions and pull requests. I hope a few people find it useful.

Very nice!

@Adam - do you use the salt-step plugin (https://github.com/rundeck-plugins/salt-step) with your Rundeck instance?  I haven't had any luck getting it to work and I'm wondering if others have any tips.

Thanks,

Devin

I tried salt-step a few years ago and didn't have any success with it. My biggest issue was that it's very hard to know what is considered "success" when running an execution module across multiple nodes. To be fair, this is a hard problem with all salt-api integrations, not just salt-step. I worked around this challenge by using SSH to execute salt-call on each target system and trusting the return code.
