Ansible¶ This is growing into a minimal Ansible reference of sorts, since Ansible’s own docs have nothing like a reference. List of keys that common playbook objects can take. Release tarballs. Ansible documentation for older releases. Run playbook with Ansible: (-f switch allow the execution to be performed on multiple hosts parallel) $ ansible-playbook telnetPlaybook.yaml -f 10. Ansible Modules (-m): These are few but there is huge list. Command – execute commands and this is default module of Ansible. Copy – copy files shell – use remote shell to execute.

plugin documentation tool

displays information on modules installed in Ansible libraries.It displays a terse listing of plugins and their short descriptions,provides a printout of their DOCUMENTATION strings,and it can create a short “snippet” which can be pasted into a playbook.

For internal testing only Dump json metadata for all plugins.

Since this tool does not use playbooks, use this as a substitute playbook directory.This sets the relative path for many features including roles/ group_vars/ etc.
