Implementation Reference

  • The handler function for the 'aws_route53' tool. It destructures input args, generates an Ansible playbook based on the specified action (list_zones, list_records, create_zone, create_record, delete_record, delete_zone), and executes it using executeAwsPlaybook.
    export async function route53Operations(args: Route53Options): Promise<string> {
      await verifyAwsCredentials();
    
      const { action, region, zoneId, zoneName, recordName, recordType, recordTtl, recordValue, recordState, comment } = args;
    
      let playbookContent = `---
    - name: AWS Route53 ${action} operation
      hosts: localhost
      connection: local
      gather_facts: no

          playbookContent += `

            var: route53_zones.HostedZones`;
          break;

  • Zod schema defining the input parameters for the aws_route53 tool, including action enum and optional fields like region, zone details, record details.
    export const Route53Schema = z.object({
      action: Route53ActionEnum,
      region: z.string().min(1, 'AWS region is required'),
      zoneId: z.string().optional(),
      zoneName: z.string().optional(),
      recordName: z.string().optional(),
      recordType: z.string().optional(),
      recordTtl: z.number().optional(),
      recordValue: z.union([z.string(), z.array(z.string())]).optional(),
      recordState: z.string().optional(),
      comment: z.string().optional() // Added based on usage in aws.ts
    });
    
    export type Route53Options = z.infer<typeof Route53Schema>;
  • Registration of the 'aws_route53' tool in the toolDefinitions map, linking description, schema, and handler.
    aws_route53: {
      description: 'Manage AWS Route53 DNS records and zones',
      schema: aws.Route53Schema,
      handler: aws.route53Operations,
    },
  • Zod enum defining possible actions for the Route53 tool.
    export const Route53ActionEnum = z.enum(['list_zones', 'list_records', 'create_zone', 'create_record', 'delete_record', 'delete_zone']);
    export type Route53Action = z.infer<typeof Route53ActionEnum>;
  • Helper function used by all AWS handlers (including route53Operations) to execute dynamically generated Ansible playbooks for AWS operations.
    async function executeAwsPlaybook(
      operationName: string, 
      playbookContent: string, 
      extraParams: string = '',
      tempFiles: { filename: string, content: string }[] = [] // For additional files like templates, policies
    ): Promise<string> {
      let tempDir: string | undefined;
      try {
        // Create a unique temporary directory
        tempDir = await createTempDirectory(`ansible-aws-${operationName}`);
        
        // Write the main playbook file
        const playbookPath = await writeTempFile(tempDir, 'playbook.yml', playbookContent);
        
        // Write any additional temporary files
        for (const file of tempFiles) {
          await writeTempFile(tempDir, file.filename, file.content);
        }
    
        // Build the command
        const command = `ansible-playbook ${playbookPath} ${extraParams}`;
        console.error(`Executing: ${command}`);
    
        // Execute the playbook asynchronously
        const { stdout, stderr } = await execAsync(command);
        
        // Return stdout, or a success message if stdout is empty
        return stdout || `${operationName} completed successfully (no output).`;
    
      } catch (error: any) {
        // Handle execution errors
        const errorMessage = error.stderr || error.message || 'Unknown error';
        throw new AnsibleExecutionError(`Ansible execution failed for ${operationName}: ${errorMessage}`, error.stderr);
      } finally {
        // Ensure cleanup happens even if errors occur
        if (tempDir) {
          await cleanupTempDirectory(tempDir);
        }
      }
    }
