ansible-dev-environment 0.1.dev195

A pip-like ansible collection installer.

ansible-dev-environment

A pip-like install for ansible collections.

Features

• Promotes an "ephemeral" development approach
• Ensures the current development environment is isolated
• Install all collection python requirements
• Install all collection test requirements
• Checks for missing system packages
• Symlinks the current collection into the current python interpreter's site-packages
• Install all collection collection dependencies into the current python interpreter's site-packages

By placing collections into the python site-packages directory they are discoverable by ansible as well as python and pytest.
