Mariadb__*_users & mariadb__*_databases custom vars

Hello,

I've a question about your "mariadb" role in debops.

I have multiple mariadb host in different mariadb group and i need to create user specific to host and other users specifics to groups.

Example of my inventory :

[Mariadb1]
VM1-mariadb1-test
VM2-mariadb1-example

[Mariadb2]
VM1-mariadb1-test
VM3-mariadb2-testing

Is-it possible for Mariadb1 group to create an user for VM1-mariadb1-test and VM2-mariadb1-example but they also have their own users ?

I saw in the "monit" and some other roles that the task use a "combined" variable containing customs variables and that we have the possibility to add variables thanks to "host_vars" and "group_vars" directory.

Is-it possible to add custom variables like for exemple "mariadb__grouptest_user" without to touch task file but only variables files ? I'm not an ansible expert but like i said, i know it is possible for "monit" role but i don't know for mariadb because it is builded differently : monit use a "with_items" while mariadb use a "loop".

Thanks for your help and to contribute to Debops :)

Start by reading the mariadb role's task and variable definitions, then compare them with the monit role's combined-variable handling. Check how host_vars and group_vars are consumed for MariaDB users and databases. Done means the requested host- and group-specific custom variables work without task-file edits, with the behavior documented or covered by tests.
