Using Ansible to call REST APIs
In the Fundraising Team of Wikimedia Germany we maintain our own infrastructure, using the principle of Infrastructure as Code: We write every configuration change, every installed package, every other server setup tweak as a text file that we check into our version control system and do a peer-review on. This way, we can replicate our setups, share knowledge and track changes and their context. While setting up a Graylog instance we discovered that its configuration file does not contain all the information.
