Attaching a Floating IP

Floating IP addresses are movable IPs that can be moved around from droplet to droplet as required. This can be helpful to route traffic away to a healthy droplet in case a droplet turns bad.

How to do it...

1. Let's create a floating IP and attach it to the droplet:

- name: attach a floating IP
  digital_ocean_floating_ip:
    state: present
    droplet_id: "{{ app_droplet.droplet.id }}"
    api_token: "{{ DO_OAUTH_TOKEN }}"

This task takes droplet_id as a parameter and attaches a floating IP to it.
