Once more, off the Las Vegas for to work a trade show. This year, I was
helping present training, so I was tucked away in a basement most of the
trip, and did not get out to do much in the way of sight-seeing aside
from walking around the hotel.
This is a quick post to capture something seen.
Ansibel is a configuration management tool
that I have been learning recently. More details in a future post. This
is just to capture this idea:
From: Smith, Chris (Big Data)
To: ansible
Ansible Galaxy is a centralised Github repository of public Ansible
content, see: https://galaxy.ansible.com/ It uses a local routine
that is installed when you install Ansible, called ‘ansible-galaxy’,
to create a blank template for your Ansible content. What is not well
known is you can run ‘ansible-galaxy’ in offline mode to create a
blank template using the command:
# ansible-galaxy init --offline my-role
Enjoy,
Chris
More on this as I get some more back-ends stuff taken care of, like
setting up a git repo and maybe auto-deploy from git push?
April has come and gone, and I did not manage to find time (or energy)
to post anything.
I spent most of the month at work getting ready to and then delivering
some training remotely in Nashville, TN, US. Now, I can say that I have
stayed at the largest non-casino hotel in the world, The Gaylord
Opryland.
Now that that is over, I get to gear up to design a new training plan
for internal product training. Such is the life of a Linux guy stuck
working for a marketing group.
On the home front, we have hit a busy time with soccer, volleyball,
dance, and swim time. I think we get a break sometime after the 4th of
July.….
