Ansible F5
|slack badge| |travis badge| |shippable badge|
Introduction
This repository provides the foundation for working with the F5 Modules for Ansible. The architecture of the modules makes inherent use of the BIG-IP REST APIs as well as the tmsh API where required.
This repository is an incubator for Ansible modules. The modules in this repository may be broken due to experimentation or refactoring.
The F5 Modules for Ansible are freely provided to the open source community for automating BIG-IP device configurations.
If you want to download the stable modules, please install latest collection release found on galaxy: |f5_collection|.
Collections Daily Build
We offer a daily build of our most recent collection |dailybuild|. Please use this Collection to test the most recent Ansible module updates between releases.
Installing the Daily Build
.. code:: shell
ansible-galaxy collection install <collection name> -p ./collections
e.g.
ansible-galaxy collection install f5networks-f5_modules-devel.tar.gz -p ./collections
.. note::
"-p" is the location in which the collection will be installed. This location should be defined in the path for
ansible to search for collections. An example of this would be adding ``collections_paths = ./collections``
to your **ansible.cfg**
