pyateos-ansible 1.0.7

Ansible module pyATEOS framework.

pyateos-ansible

Ansible module for pyATEOS framework.

Install:

To install just run the command:

pip install pyateos-ansible

Configure Ansible:

Edit your ansible.cfg file and add the path where eos_pyateos module is installed.

i.e.

[defaults]
library = ./lib/python3.7/site-packages/pyateos-ansible/modules

If you run a virtualenv most probably the path would be something similar to the example above. Otherwise you can use for example mlocate to find where the module is.
