Network Developer Guide
Welcome to the Developer Guide for Ansible Network Automation!
Who should use this guide?
If you want to extend Ansible for Network Automation by creating a
module or plugin, this guide is for you. This guide is specific to
networking. You should already be familiar with how to create, test, and
document modules and plugins, as well as the prerequisites for getting
your module or plugin accepted into the main Ansible repository. See the
developer_guide for
details. Before you proceed, please read:
- How to
add a custom plugin or module locally <developing_locally>. - How to figure out if
developing a module is the right approach <module_dev_should_you>for my use case. - How to
set up my Python development environment <environment_setup>. - How to
get started writing a module <developing_modules_general>.
Find the network developer task that best describes what you want to do:
- I want to
develop a network resource module <developing_resource_modules>.- I want to
develop a network connection plugin <developing_plugins_network>.- I want to
document my set of modules for a network platform <documenting_modules_network>.
If you prefer to read the entire guide, here's a list of the pages in order.
