spotinst_aws_elastigroup – Create, update or delete Spotinst AWS Elastigroups

New in version 2.5.


Synopsis

  • Can create, update, or delete Spotinst AWS Elastigroups Launch configuration is part of the elastigroup configuration, so no additional modules are necessary for handling the launch configuration. You will have to have a credentials file in this location - /.spotinst/credentials The credentials file must contain a row that looks like this token = Full documentation available at https://help.spotinst.com/hc/en-us/articles/115003530285-Ansible-
