Ansible Collection - fansilet.homelab

This collection aims to hold a mixed set of roles and plugins enabling the deployment and automation for multiple GNU/Linux services.

Such as deploy or create standalone servers, homelab servers, filesharing servers, DNS services, kubernetes clusters.

The initial intention on creating this is follow the new Ansible GalaxyNG standards while also maintaining multiple services of my interest. Such as deploy my homelab samba server, or create NFS shares etc...

This collection is designed to also keep retro-compability with standalone ansible roles, by using git submodules. Each role or plugin is maintained in a independent git repository.

All roles of this collections can be found in the fansilet-roles organization.

Q&A

Q: Why fansilet?
A: The orignal name was fansible, in the sense of "It's Fancy, It's Ansible, It's fansible. However this evolved to use podman quadlet, becoming: "It's Fancy, It's Ansible, It's Quadlet, It's Fansilet.

Q: Why there's two orgs in github, fansilet-collections and fansible-roles?
A: In gitlab we have groups which allows to organize better or code. In Github the similar way of solving it is by having orgs.
