Managing OpenStack instances with Ansible through an SSH bastion host

I'm be using DreamCompute as my OpenStack provider, but there are dozens to choose from. I assume you already have Ansible and the OpenStack CLI tools installed.

Motivation

With the proliferation of OpenStack public clouds offering free and intro tiers, it's becoming very easy to effectively run a simple application for free or nearly free. Also with the emergence of Ansible, you don't need to learn and deploy complicated tools to do configuration management.

	#!/bin/bash -ex

	# Paste this into ssh
	# curl -sL https://gist.github.com/andsens/2913223/raw/bootstrap_homeshick.sh \| tar -xzO \| /bin/bash -ex
	# When forking, you can get the URL from the raw (<>) button.

	### Set some command variables depending on whether we are root or not ###
	# This assumes you use a debian derivate, replace with yum, pacman etc.
	aptget='sudo apt-get'
	chsh='sudo chsh'
