(Tests run on the current, previous and next release of Ansible.) The following roles can be installed to ensure all requirements are met, using `ansible-galaxy install -r requirements.yml`: ```yaml {{ requirements.content | b64decode }} ``` Context ------- This role is a part of many compatible roles. Have a look at [the documentation of these roles](https://robertdebock.nl/) for further information. Here is an overview of related roles: ![dependencies](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/{{ github_namespace }}/drawings/artifacts/{{ role_name }}.png "Dependency") Compatibility ------------- {{ compatibility.stdout }} {% if exceptions is defined %} Exceptions ---------- Some variarations of the build matrix do not work.

Monthly tests occur to see if [bit-rot](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_rot) occured. If you however find a problem, please create an issue, I'll get on it as soon as possible.{% endif %} Testing ------- [Unit tests](https://travis-ci.org/{{ travis_namespace }}/ansible-role-{{ role_name }}) are done on every commit, pull request, release and periodically. If you find issues, please register them in [GitHub](https://github.com/{{ github_namespace }}/ansible-role-{{ role_name }}/issues) Testing is done using [Tox](https://tox.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) and [Molecule](https://github.com/ansible/molecule): [Tox](https://tox.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) tests multiple ansible versions. [Molecule](https://github.com/ansible/molecule) tests multiple distributions. To test using the defaults (any installed ansible version, namespace: `{{ docker_namespace }}`, image: `{{ docker_image }}`, tag: `{{ docker_tag }}`): ``` molecule test # Or select a specific image: image=ubuntu molecule test # Or select a specific image and a specific tag: image="debian" tag="stable" tox ``` Or you can test multiple versions of Ansible, and select images: Tox allows multiple versions of Ansible to be tested. To run the default (namespace: `{{ docker_namespace }}`, image: `{{ docker_image }}`, tag: `{{ docker_tag }}`) tests: ``` tox # To run CentOS (namespace: `{{ docker_namespace }}`, tag: `{{ docker_tag }}`) image="centos" tox # Or customize more: image="debian" tag="stable" tox ``` Modules ------- This role uses the following modules: ```yaml {{ modules.stdout }} ``` License ------- {{ meta.galaxy_info.license }} Author Information ------------------ [{{ meta.galaxy_info.author }}]({{ author_website }})
