How to filter salt modules usage

Is anyone aware of a way to filter salt modules usage per host/group/etc. Is there a way to filter it like salt pillar's top.sls?

For example I have module to manage haproxy which is depends on haproxyctl and thats only require to run on host with haproxy role.

If your roles are assigned in minion configuration - then they are available for your salt command as a regular grains.

E.g. if you have a minion configuration like:

<some config here>
grains: 
  roles:
    - haproxy

You can use the following command to execute state only on the nodes with haproxy role:

salt -C 'G@roles:haproxy' <your state here>

basically, with syntax salt - C 'G@<grain>' you can match on any grain.
