• Install hubot in /opt/hubot (or somewhere else...)
• Upload inventory/ec2.{py,ini} in /opt/hubot folder
• Upload a PEM (or ssh key) in /opt/hubot folder
• Set at least the following ENV VARS to hubot:
  • export ANSIBLE_HOST_KEY_CHECKING=False
  • export EC2_REGION=us-east-1
  • export AWS_ACCESS_KEY=<your_aws_key>
  • export AWS_SECRET_KEY=<your_aws_secret>
  • export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=$AWS_ACCESS_KEY
  • export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=$AWS_SECRET_KEY
  • export HUBOT_ANSIBLE_INVENTORY_FILE=/opt/hubot/inventory/ec2.py
  • export HUBOT_ANSIBLE_PRIVATE_KEY=/opt/hubot/<your_pem_file>.pem
  • export HUBOT_ANSIBLE_REMOTE_USER="admin"
• chmod 400 /opt/hubot/the_pem_file.pem
• Dont forget to install ansible on hubot host !

You can debug launching this command as the "hubot user":

ansible -i $HUBOT_ANSIBLE_INVENTORY_FILE --private-key=$HUBOT_ANSIBLE_PRIVATE_KEY all -u $HUBOT_ANSIBLE_REMOTE_USER -m shell -a "date"
