PHP YAML data collector to build Vultr servers

by deaves

A few days ago I posted an Ansible playbook to provision & deprovision virtual servers on VULTR. One of the key features of that playbook would read a separate YAML file for its list of servers to build. The following is a simple yaml data collector written in PHP to generate the YAML for an Ansible playbook to consume.

VR Server Request

Long story short the heart of the script is the yaml_emit_file function that I use to dump POST data directly into a YAML file. As stated in my previous posting, anything could generate that file, be it the user themselves or a ticketing system.

yaml-data-collector.php: PHP script, ASCII text

<?php
/*
   # yaml-data-collector
   # Simple php form to collect information from a user on what servers to build.
   2017 (v1.0) - Script from www.davideaves.com
*/

if (basename($_SERVER["PHP_SELF"]) == basename(__FILE__) && isset($_GET["source"])) {
  header("Content-type: text/plain");
  exit(file_get_contents(basename($_SERVER["PHP_SELF"])));
}

// Uncomment to view debug points in the code.
//$debug = "yes";

if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == 'POST') {
  // Update $yamlfile
  yaml_emit_file("$_POST[tag].yaml", $_POST);
}

if(isset($_REQUEST['DATA'])):
  if (file_exists($_REQUEST['DATA'])) {
    $yamldata = yaml_parse_file($_REQUEST['DATA']);
    // Reindex the SERVERS array numerically incase broken.
    $yamldata['vultr']['servers'] = array_values($yamldata['vultr']['servers']);
  }
endif
