Tips
When running commands, you can specify the local server by using "localhost" or "127.0.0.1" for the server name.
Example:
.. code-block:: bash
$ ansible localhost -m ping -e 'ansible_python_interpreter="/usr/bin/env python"'
You can specify localhost explicitly by adding this to your inventory file::
localhost ansible_connection=local ansible_python_interpreter="/usr/bin/env python"
