Since it is "introductory", I introduce Ansible introduction, installation, commentary of YAML, etc. from the stage before beginning writing Ansible playbook. In addition, we make it possible to describe the basic playbook first, and then introduce complicated functions afterwards.
Saying that, as well as the details of the configuration file and the creation of modules and plugins are listed, I think that it will be satisfied for non-beginners as well.
sample
I'd like to see a glimpse of what kind of things ", so I will publish chapters 1 and 2 as samples.
Please note that this is PDF, so format is different from what you purchased on Amazon.
Issue Tracker
https://bitbucket.org/r_rudi/ansible-book/issues
We are publishing an issue tracker. When I find misspellings, mistakes, if you like, if you can register here I will fix it. Also, if there is a request to "Please explain this part more," I would like to reflect as much as possible if you can register.
Future plans
Three months later, we will correct the issues accepted by issue tracker, and we will also publish PDF and epub version at GumRoad. Of course, we plan to sell what we have continued to modify on Amazon.
Incidentally, there is no plan for paper making at the moment so far.
Other
- I wrote completely with Sphinx only. As for this, it is separately.
- We are looking for a person who can draw a picture of the cover ...
