Switch to apt / yum repo's about ansible-elasticsearch

[robynbergeron]

You should be able to use the apt_repository and apt_key modules for debian. (See http://docs.ansible.com/list_of_packaging_modules.html for more info).

Here's how I have it for elasticsearch / debian in my own:

• name: Add Elasticsearch repository
  apt_repository: repo="deb http://packages.elasticsearch.org/elasticsearch/{{ elasticsearch.version }}/debian stable main" state=present
• name: Add Elasticsearch repository key
  apt_key: url="http://packages.elasticsearch.org/GPG-KEY-elasticsearch" state=present

For RHEL/CentOS/Fedora/etc --

The redhat.yml task file looks like this (this is logstash, but I assume es can plug in here easily) -

• name: Add Logstash repos
  template: src=logstash.repo dest=/etc/yum.repos.d/logstash-{{ logstash.version }}.repo
• name: Install Logstash
  yum: name={{ item }} state=present
  with_items:
  • logstash

And the template in the line above (src=logstash.repo) is in the templates directory -- and looks like this:

[logstash-{{ logstash.version }}]
name=logstash repository for {{ logstash.version }}.x packages
baseurl=http://packages.elasticsearch.org/logstash/{{ logstash.version }}/centos
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=http://packages.elasticsearch.org/GPG-KEY-elasticsearch
enabled=1

The yum module has an enablerepo parameter but I'm pretty sure we wouldn't want to use it (it doesn't persist beyond the transaction).

(also, happy to make a PR instead if that makes your life easier ;D)

@robynbergeron Thanks, and hold back for a moment - I'm already working on that and just not yet fully tested and committed. :)

Sweet! Just thought I'd throw in my $.02 :)

Implemented yum/repo usage.
