* Build documentation for Ansible-2.10 (formerly known as ACD).
Builds plugin docs from collections whose source is on galaxy
The new command downloads collections from galaxy, then finds the
plugins inside of them to get the documentation for those plugins.
* Update the python syntax checks
* docs builds can now require python 3.6+.
* Move plugin formatter code out to an external tool, antsibull-docs.
Collection owners want to be able to extract docs for their own
websites as well.
* The jinja2 filters, tests, and other support code have moved to antsibull
* Remove document_plugins as that has now been integrated into antsibull-docs
* Cleanup and bugfix to other build script code:
* The Commands class needed to have its metaclass set for abstractmethod
to work correctly
* Fix lint issues in some command plugins
* Add the docs/docsite/rst/collections to .gitignore as
everything in that directory will be generated so we don't want any of
it saved in the git repository
* gitignore the build dir and remove edit docs link on module pages
* Add docs/rst/collections as a directory to remove on make clean
* Split the collections docs from the main docs
* remove version and edit on github
* remove version banner for just collections
* clarify examples need collection keyword defined
* Remove references to plugin documentation locations that no longer exist.
* Perhaps the pages in plugins/*.rst should be deprecated
altogether and their content moved?
* If not, perhaps we want to rephrase and link into the collection
documentation?
* Or perhaps we want to link to the plugins which are present in
collections/ansible/builtin?
* Remove PYTHONPATH from the build-ansible calls
One of the design goals of the build-ansible.py script was for it to
automatically set its library path to include the checkout of ansible
and the library of code to implement itself. Because it automatically
includes the checkout of ansible, we don't need to set PYTHONPATH in
the Makefile any longer.
* Create a command to only build ansible-base plugin docs
* When building docs for devel, only build the ansible-base docs for
now. This is because antsibull needs support for building a "devel
tree" of docs. This can be changed once that is implemented
* When building docs for the sanity tests, only build the ansible-base
plugin docs for now. Those are the docs which are in this repo so
that seems appropriate for now.
* Docs: User guide overhaul, part 5 (#70307)

|PyPI version| |Docs badge| |Chat badge| |Build Status| |Code Of Conduct| |Mailing Lists| |License| ******* Ansible ******* Ansible is a radically simple IT automation system. It handles configuration management, application deployment, cloud provisioning, ad-hoc task execution, network automation, and multi-node orchestration. Ansible makes complex changes like zero-downtime rolling updates with load balancers easy. More information on `the Ansible website <https://ansible.com/>`_. 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. Use Ansible =========== You can install a released version of Ansible via ``pip``, a package manager, or our `release repository <https://releases.ansible.com/ansible/>`_. See our `installation guide <https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/installation_guide/intro_installation.html>`_ for details on installing Ansible on a variety of platforms. Red Hat offers supported builds of `Ansible Engine <https://www.ansible.com/ansible-engine>`_. Power users and developers can run the ``devel`` branch, which has the latest features and fixes, directly. Although it is reasonably stable, you are more likely to encounter breaking changes when running the ``devel`` branch. We recommend getting involved in the Ansible community if you want to run the ``devel`` branch. Get Involved ============ * Read `Community Information <https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/community>`_ 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. * Join a `Working Group <https://github.com/ansible/community/wiki>`_, an organized community devoted to a specific technology domain or platform. * Submit a proposed code update through a pull request to the ``devel`` branch. * Talk to us before making larger changes to avoid duplicate efforts. This not only helps everyone know what is going on, it also helps save time and effort if we decide some changes are needed. * For a list of email lists, IRC channels and Working Groups, see the `Communication page <https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/community/communication.html>`_ Coding Guidelines ================= We document our Coding Guidelines in the `Developer Guide <https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/devel/dev_guide/>`_. We particularly suggest you review: * `Contributing your module to Ansible <https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/devel/dev_guide/developing_modules_checklist.html>`_ * `Conventions, tips and pitfalls <https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/devel/dev_guide/developing_modules_best_practices.html>`_ Branch Info =========== * The ``devel`` branch corresponds to the release actively under development. * The ``stable-2.X`` branches correspond to stable releases. * Create a branch based on ``devel`` and set up a `dev environment <https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/dev_guide/developing_modules_general.html#common-environment-setup>`_ if you want to open a PR. * See the `Ansible release and maintenance <https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/reference_appendices/release_and_maintenance.html>`_ page for information about active branches. Roadmap ======= Based on team and community feedback, an initial roadmap will be published for a major or minor version (ex: 2.7, 2.8). The `Ansible Roadmap page <https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/devel/roadmap/>`_ details what is planned and how to influence the roadmap. Authors ======= Ansible was created by `Michael DeHaan <https://github.com/mpdehaan>`_ and has contributions from over 4700 users (and growing).
