I have two projects (lets call them P1 and P2) setup in a collection-ish style that depend on a shared set of inventory and var files. The projects are a combination of playbooks and roles; theres no custom modules or any plugins really. All three are checked into source control as 3 different repos. The inventories are pretty small and statically defined. The shared vars are numerous enough that they are broken out into different files in group_vars.
Currently, I have a bash script in each of the projects that checks out the shared resources and then moves them into place. The inventory files are no problem, but the var files needs to be orchestrated a bit carefully so I dont have conflicts or accidentally overwrite a file that exists in both repos.
It works, but its pretty clunky. I was wondering if people had other ideas or solutions for a situation like this
