I just had to set up Jenkins to use GitHub. My notes (to myself, mostly):

Detailed Instructions

For setting up Jenkins to build GitHub projects. This assumes some ability to manage Jenkins, use the command line, set up a utility LDAP account, etc. Please share or improve this Gist as needed.

Install Jenkins Plugins

• get both the git and github plugin
• http://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Git+Plugin

# Idempotent way to build a /etc/hosts file with Ansible using your Ansible hosts inventory for a source.
# Will include all hosts the playbook is run on.
# Inspired from http://xmeblog.blogspot.com/2013/06/ansible-dynamicaly-update-etchosts.html

- name: "Build hosts file"
  lineinfile: dest=/etc/hosts regexp='.*{{ item }}$' line="{{ hostvars[item].ansible_default_ipv4.address }} {{item}}" state=present
  when: hostvars[item].ansible_default_ipv4.address is defined
  with_items: groups['all']

# This has been tested with ansible 1.3 with these commands:
#   ansible-playbook -i hosts ansible_conditionals_examples.yaml --extra-vars="hosts=myhosts isFirstRun=false"
#   ansible-playbook -i hosts ansible_conditionals_examples.yaml --extra-vars="hosts=myhosts isFirstRun=true"
#   ansible-playbook -i hosts ansible_conditionals_examples.yaml --extra-vars="hosts=myhosts"
# NB: The type of the variable is crucial!

This script can help you find and remove unused AWS snapshots and volumes.

There is hardcoded list of regions that it searches, adjust the value to suit your needs.

Use snapshot.py snapshot-report to generate report.csv containing information about all snapshots.

snapshot.py snapshot-cleanup lets you interactively delete snapshot if it finds it is referencing unexisting resources.
