Hi,

I was searching for filesystem quota module, but I did not found any ;(  
So I wrote one. The goal is to add this module in the ansible repository for everyone.

code: [https://github.com/hudecof/ansible\_module\_quota](https://github.com/hudecof/ansible_module_quota)

I would like you to ask to help a little bit. What do I need.  
Feel free to open issues or submit PR.

1) testing  
Right now it’s tested on Debian 9 and CentOS 7.  
The `quota` tools is used to parse actual quota.

`quotatool` in current stable debian has bag, that makes the parsing impossible. See [https://github.com/ekenberg/quotatool/issues/7](https://github.com/ekenberg/quotatool/issues/7).  
It’s fixed in next release. Debian testing should be OK with this tool.

Not sure about the `quota` output on older distributions releases or any other one.

2) documentation

do the right documentation. At this moment this is big TODO.

&nbsp;&nbsp;regards  
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Peter

Thanks Alica,

this helps a lot.

Just another question. Is there a way how to debug. with ansible-doc?

Seems I have there some kind of typo ;(

(env) Peters-MBP:hudecof.module\_quota hudecof$ ansible-doc -M library quota  
ERROR! module quota missing documentation (or could not parse documentation): expected string or bytes-like object

regards  
Peter
