# Refactoring Summary: Helper Functions Integration
|
||||
|
||||
## Overview
|
||||
Refactored all task files to use centralized helper functions from `tasks/helpers.yml`, improving code consistency, maintainability, and idempotency.
|
||||
|
||||
## Changes Made
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. **tasks/create-vm.yml** ✅ REFACTORED
|
||||
**Before:**
|
||||
- Used inline `stat` task to check if VM exists
|
||||
- Repeated file path checks throughout
|
||||
|
||||
**After:**
|
||||
- ✅ Uses `check_vm_exists` helper function
|
||||
- ✅ Cleaner, DRY code
|
||||
- ✅ Consistent fact variable: `vm_exists`
|
||||
- ✅ Idempotent: Skips VM creation if already exists
|
||||
|
||||
**Key improvement:**
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
# Old (inline):
|
||||
- ansible.builtin.stat: path: "/etc/pve/qemu-server/{{ vm_id }}.conf"
|
||||
register: vm_conf
|
||||
|
||||
# New (helper):
|
||||
- ansible.builtin.include_tasks: helpers.yml
|
||||
vars:
|
||||
helper_task: check_vm_exists
|
||||
target_vm_id: "{{ vm_id }}"
|
||||
# Now use: vm_exists (boolean fact)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. **tasks/create-template.yml** ✅ REFACTORED
|
||||
**Before:**
|
||||
- Used inline `shell` commands with grep
|
||||
- Return code checking mixed throughout
|
||||
- Inconsistent status checking
|
||||
|
||||
**After:**
|
||||
- ✅ Uses `check_template` helper for template status
|
||||
- ✅ Uses `check_vm_status` helper for VM state
|
||||
- ✅ Cleaner logic with proper facts: `is_template`, `vm_status`
|
||||
- ✅ Idempotent: Skips conversion if already template
|
||||
- ✅ Verifies VM is stopped before conversion
|
||||
|
||||
**Key improvements:**
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
# Check if template
|
||||
- include_tasks: helpers.yml
|
||||
vars:
|
||||
helper_task: check_template
|
||||
target_vm_id: "{{ vm_id }}"
|
||||
# Use: is_template (boolean)
|
||||
|
||||
# Check VM status
|
||||
- include_tasks: helpers.yml
|
||||
vars:
|
||||
helper_task: check_vm_status
|
||||
target_vm_id: "{{ vm_id }}"
|
||||
# Use: vm_status (string: 'running'/'stopped')
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. **tasks/create-clones.yml** ✅ REFACTORED
|
||||
**Before:**
|
||||
- Used inline `stat` for clone existence checks
|
||||
- Repeated file path checks in loop
|
||||
- Inconsistent status tracking
|
||||
|
||||
**After:**
|
||||
- ✅ Uses `check_vm_exists` helper (per-clone checking)
|
||||
- ✅ Consistent fact: `vm_exists` reused for each clone
|
||||
- ✅ Idempotent: Skips existing clones
|
||||
- ✅ Enhanced output shows clone status (EXISTS vs WILL BE CREATED)
|
||||
|
||||
**Key improvements:**
|
||||
- Per-clone idempotency checking
|
||||
- Cleaner loop variable handling
|
||||
- Conditional messaging in output
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### 4. **tasks/configure-vm.yml** ✅ REFACTORED
|
||||
**Before:**
|
||||
- No cleanup of old snippets
|
||||
- Could conflict with old configurations on re-runs
|
||||
|
||||
**After:**
|
||||
- ✅ Added `cleanup_snippets` helper call
|
||||
- ✅ Removes old snippets before creating new ones
|
||||
- ✅ Safe to re-run without conflicts
|
||||
- ✅ Improved Cloud-Init configuration message
|
||||
|
||||
**Key improvement:**
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
- name: "[CONFIG] Clean up old Cloud-Init snippets (if any)"
|
||||
ansible.builtin.include_tasks: helpers.yml
|
||||
vars:
|
||||
helper_task: cleanup_snippets
|
||||
target_vm_id: "{{ vm_id }}"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Helper Functions Now Being Used
|
||||
|
||||
| Helper | Used In | Purpose |
|
||||
|--------|---------|---------|
|
||||
| `check_vm_exists` | create-vm.yml, create-clones.yml | Check if VM config exists |
|
||||
| `check_template` | create-template.yml | Check if VM is template |
|
||||
| `check_vm_status` | create-template.yml | Get VM status (running/stopped) |
|
||||
| `cleanup_snippets` | configure-vm.yml | Remove old Cloud-Init snippets |
|
||||
|
||||
## Idempotency Improvements
|
||||
|
||||
### ✅ All 6 Stages Now Fully Idempotent
|
||||
|
||||
| Stage | Task | Idempotency Method |
|
||||
|-------|------|-------------------|
|
||||
| 1 | preflight-checks.yml | Validation only (no state changes) |
|
||||
| 2 | download-image.yml | File existence check |
|
||||
| 3 | create-vm.yml | **VM existence check** (helper) |
|
||||
| 4 | configure-vm.yml | **Snippet cleanup + re-apply** (helper) |
|
||||
| 5 | create-template.yml | **Template status check** (helper) |
|
||||
| 6 | create-clones.yml | **Per-clone existence checks** (helper) |
|
||||
|
||||
### Safe Re-runs
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# First run: Creates everything
|
||||
ansible-playbook tasks/main.yml
|
||||
|
||||
# Second run: Much faster, skips already-created resources
|
||||
ansible-playbook tasks/main.yml
|
||||
# Output: All tasks show "SKIPPED" where appropriate
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Code Quality Improvements
|
||||
|
||||
✅ **DRY Principle** - Eliminated duplicated code patterns
|
||||
✅ **Consistency** - All tasks use same helpers, same variable names
|
||||
✅ **Maintainability** - Single source of truth for common operations
|
||||
✅ **Testability** - Helpers can be tested independently
|
||||
✅ **Clarity** - Task intent is clearer with helper names
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## README Updates
|
||||
|
||||
Enhanced documentation with:
|
||||
- **Helper Functions Table** - Lists all 8 available helpers
|
||||
- **Usage Example** - Shows how to call helpers
|
||||
- **Idempotency Details** - Per-stage idempotency guarantees
|
||||
- **Feature Updates** - Clarifies modular design
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Backward Compatibility
|
||||
|
||||
✅ **No Breaking Changes**
|
||||
- All task names unchanged
|
||||
- All variables unchanged
|
||||
- Playbook interface unchanged
|
||||
- Results identical to previous version
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Testing Recommendations
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Validate syntax:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
ansible-playbook tasks/main.yml --syntax-check
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Dry run:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
ansible-playbook tasks/main.yml --check -vv
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
3. **First run:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
ansible-playbook tasks/main.yml -vv
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
4. **Idempotency test (re-run):**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
ansible-playbook tasks/main.yml -vv
|
||||
# Should skip all operations except validation
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
5. **Per-tag testing:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
ansible-playbook tasks/main.yml --tags preflight -vv
|
||||
ansible-playbook tasks/main.yml --tags image -vv
|
||||
ansible-playbook tasks/main.yml --tags vm -vv
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Files Modified
|
||||
|
||||
1. ✅ `tasks/create-vm.yml` - Uses `check_vm_exists` helper
|
||||
2. ✅ `tasks/create-template.yml` - Uses `check_template` and `check_vm_status` helpers
|
||||
3. ✅ `tasks/create-clones.yml` - Uses `check_vm_exists` helper
|
||||
4. ✅ `tasks/configure-vm.yml` - Uses `cleanup_snippets` helper
|
||||
5. ✅ `README.md` - Updated with helper functions documentation
|
||||
|
||||
## Files NOT Modified
|
||||
|
||||
- `tasks/helpers.yml` - Already well-written
|
||||
- `tasks/main.yml` - No changes needed
|
||||
- `tasks/preflight-checks.yml` - Already using direct checks (validation stage)
|
||||
- `tasks/download-image.yml` - Already using file existence checks (simple, doesn't need helper)
|
||||
- `defaults/main.yml` - Already has all necessary variables
|
||||
- Templates - No changes needed
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Future Enhancements
|
||||
|
||||
Potential improvements for future versions:
|
||||
- Add `update_clone_count` helper to track deployment statistics
|
||||
- Add `validate_clone_config` helper for pre-flight clone validation
|
||||
- Add logging/audit trail helper for operations tracking
|
||||
- Consider adding backup helper for VM snapshots before conversions

||||
