Hello everyone,
We are happy to announce the release of ansible-creator v24.7.1.
How to get it
You can install the latest version of all the ansible developer tools by running the following command:
python3 -m pip -U install ansible-dev-tools
This will install the following developer tools:
- ansible-builder: Ansible Builder automates the process of building execution environments using the schemas and tooling defined in various Ansible Collections and by the user.
- ansible-core: Ansible is a radically simple IT automation platform that makes your applications and systems easier to deploy and maintain. Automate everything from code deployment to network configuration to cloud management, in a language that approaches plain English, using SSH, with no agents to install on remote systems.
- ansible-creator: The fastest way to generate all your ansible content!
- ansible-dev-environment: A pip-like install for Ansible collections.
- ansible-lint: Checks playbooks for practices and behavior that could potentially be improved.
- ansible-navigator A text-based user interface (TUI) for Ansible.
- ansible-sign: Utility for signing and verifying Ansible project directory contents.
- molecule: Molecule aids in the development and testing of Ansible content: collections, playbooks and roles
- pytest-ansible: A pytest plugin that enables the use of ansible in tests, enables the use of pytest as a collection unit test runner, and exposes molecule scenarios using a pytest fixture.
- tox-ansible: The tox-ansible plugin dynamically creates a full matrix of python interpreter and ansible-core version environments for running integration, sanity, and unit for an ansible collection both locally and in a Github action. tox virtual environments are leveraged for collection building, collection installation, dependency installation, and testing.
For a single tool, you can install it by running:
python3 -m pip -U install <project>==<release>
All ansible developer tools are also packaged in an image that you can use as a VsCode development container. The image is updated shortly after releases of any individual tool.
The community-dev-tools image is available on GitHub Container Registry.
podman run -it ghcr.io/ansible/community-ansible-dev-tools:latest
Sample devcontainer.json files are available in the ansible-dev-tools repository.
