* Platform agnostic net_system module Also refactor the action network plugins for better code re-use Still more refactoring to do once the connection plugin work is complete * Replace importlib for imp importlib is not available on 2.6, so we need to stick to imp * Load action plugin via module metadata * Better error message if no implementation is found Now the plugin will show the module name and the network OS in the error message * Fix typo on documentation author line * Fix pep8 issues * Add missing options key on doc string and stringify version * Return None in case module has no metadata * Read module metadata only if it's a python module Check for module suffix, if it's .py then read metadata. Otherwise this fails on non-python modules, like Windows PS for example. * Read metadata variable only if it's a python module Fix referencing a variable before assignment * Add action_handler to validate_modules metadata schema * Pull metadata with plugin_docs get_docstring Using load_source from PluginLoader is troublesome, it is not guaranteed a module may be importable at the controller, e.g. if a module depends on module_utils functions it won't work, because module_utils is not in the sys path. Rather than putting that module dependencies introspection, just use plain parsing like plugin_docs get_docstring does as we only care about reading ANSIBLE_METADATA. * Add platform agnostic group of groups for integration tests This will be the target for platform agnostic integration tests. * Add integration tests for net_system * Switch to action plugin inheritance from metadata driven action handler As the metadata action driven action handler work is being worked on on its standalone proposal+PR, let's just go back to have one action handler per platform agnostic module. Those action plugins will inherit from net_base. * Add blank line to fix pep8 * Add aliases file to net_system integration test This will avoid CI failure * Fix integration tests for net_system * Give more precedence to task network_os over inventory network_os |

Ansible
Ansible is a radically simple IT automation system. It handles configuration-management, application deployment, cloud provisioning, ad-hoc task-execution, and multinode orchestration - including trivializing things like zero downtime rolling updates with load balancers.
Read the documentation and more at https://ansible.com/
Many users run straight from the development branch (it's generally fine to do so), but you might also wish to consume a release.
You can find instructions here for a variety of platforms.
Design Principles
- Have a dead simple setup process and a minimal learning curve
- Manage machines very quickly and in parallel
- Avoid custom-agents and additional open ports, be agentless by leveraging the existing SSH daemon
- Describe infrastructure in a language that is both machine and human friendly
- Focus on security and easy auditability/review/rewriting of content
- Manage new remote machines instantly, without bootstrapping any software
- Allow module development in any dynamic language, not just Python
- Be usable as non-root
- Be the easiest IT automation system to use, ever.
Get Involved
- Read Community Information for all kinds of ways to contribute to and interact with the project, including mailing list information and how to submit bug reports and code to Ansible.
- All code submissions are done through pull requests. Take care to make sure no merge commits are in the submission, and use
git rebase
vsgit merge
for this reason. If submitting a large code change (other than modules), it's probably a good idea to join ansible-devel and talk about what you would like to do or add first and to avoid duplicate efforts. This not only helps everyone know what's going on, it also helps save time and effort if we decide some changes are needed. - Users list: ansible-project
- Development list: ansible-devel
- Announcement list: ansible-announce - read only
- irc.freenode.net: #ansible
Branch Info
- Releases are named after Led Zeppelin songs. (Releases prior to 2.0 were named after Van Halen songs.)
- The devel branch corresponds to the release actively under development.
- For releases 1.8 - 2.2, modules are kept in different repos, you'll want to follow core and extras
- Various release-X.Y branches exist for previous releases.
- We'd love to have your contributions, read Community Information for notes on how to get started.
