Ansible SDK for Python
The Ansible SDK provides lightweight Python library for dispatching and live-monitoring Ansible tasks, roles, and playbooks from the product or project.
Dispatching of jobs can be local to the machine you are running your python application from or over Ansible Mesh using the receptor integrations.
Demo App to show how you can use the SDK in real use case - https://github.com/ansible/ansible_sdk_demo
Documentation
We are building extensive documentation and API reference here - https://ansible-sdk.readthedocs.io/en/latest/install.html Please feel free to contribute and help the documentation effort.
You can build the documentation from this repository as follows:
$ tox -e docs
$ firefox docs/build/html/
If you want to run Sphinx commands directly, open the tox.ini file and use the commands in the [testenv:docs] section.
Remember that you need to pip install docs/doc-requirements.txt before running Sphinx.
