Added solution to avoid checking in manpages. Just run "make" and we'll build
docs before python setup.py. Seems reasonable to let Makefile drive

.SH "DESCRIPTION"

Ansible ships with a number of modules that can be executed directly on remote hosts or through ansible playbooks\&.
|
|

.SH "IDEMPOTENCE"
|
|
||||||
.sp
|
|
||||||
Most modules other than command are idempotent, meaning they will seek to avoid changes unless a change needs to be made\&. When using ansible playbooks, these modules can trigger change events, as described in ansible\-playbooks (5)\&.

Unless otherwise noted, all modules support change hooks\&.

.SH "COMMAND"

ansible-playbook \- format and function of an ansible playbook file
|
|
||||||
.SH "DESCRIPTION"

|
||||||
.sp
|

Ansible ships with \fIansible\-playbook\fR, a tool for running playbooks\&. Playbooks can represent frequent tasks, desired system configurations, or deployment processes\&.
|
|

.SH "FORMAT"

.sp

Here\(cqs what the above example will do\&.
|
|
||||||
.sp
|
|
||||||
For all hosts in /etc/ansible/hosts (one host per line) that are named \fIwebserver\-anything\fR, first write a JSON file into /etc/ansible/setup on each remote system with the values max_clients and http_port\&.
|
|
||||||
.sp
|
|
||||||
Next, use a Jinja2 template locally residing at /srv/templates/httpd\&.j2 to write the Apache config file on each host to the path /etc/httpd\&.conf, using the previous values\&.
|
|
||||||
.sp
|
|
||||||
We\(cqll ensure that apache is running if stopped\&.
|
|
||||||
.sp
|
|
||||||
If and only if the config file changed, note that we need to restart apache at the end of the run, otherwise, don\(cqt bother because we already know it is running\&.
|
|
||||||
.SH "HIGH LEVEL EXPLANATION"
|
|
||||||
.sp
|
|
||||||
Playbooks are executed top down and can contain multiple references to patterns\&. For instance, a playbook could do something to all webservers, then do something to all database servers, then do something different to all webservers again\&.
|
|
||||||
.sp
|
|
||||||
For each pattern, the tasks in the \fItasks\fR list are executed in order for all hosts in the host file matching the pattern\&.
|
|
||||||
.sp
|
|
||||||
For each task, a name/action pair describes what the task is and what ansible module to use to accomplish the task, along with any arguments\&. Additional fields like \fIcomment:\fR can be added and will be ignored, so feel free to take notes in the file\&.
|
|
||||||
.sp
|
|
||||||
Most modules accept key=value format arguments\&.
|
|
||||||
.sp
|
|
||||||
Handlers are like tasks, but are conditionally executed\&. If a module reports a \fIchange\fR, it can notify one or more handler by name\&. If notified, it will run only for hosts that changed\&.
|
|
||||||
.SH "ERROR HANDLING"
|
|
||||||

|
|
||||||
If a host has a failure, the host will be ignored for the remainder of the playbook execution\&.
