What is the proper name for an Ansible "installation"?

Hi all,

I have a growing Ansible installation rooted in a directory (named at present “ansible-stuff” :slight_smile: that follows the design promulgated in http://docs.ansible.com/playbooks_best_practices.html#content-organization . I have the appropriate contents checked into a Git repo, and now I want to share my work out to my coworkers (via “git clone” of course.) My simple question is, what is the directory with all the role subdirectories, inventory files, etc. called? An “installation”? A “organization”? What?? :slight_smile: Is there an official term?

Thanks,
Will

P.S. We don’t have Ansible Tower yet, will evaluate that next…

not official, but my vote is for 'jeesh'

I believe the term used in Tower is ‘project’. I however do see a number of people name the repo with the word “playbooks” included in the name, such as “ansible-playbooks” (which is actually what I have my repo named).
