Hi all- we're happy to announce a beta release of the new ansible-base 2.10 package is now available! The ansible-base package consists of only the Ansible execution engine, related tools (e.g. ansible-galaxy, ansible-test), and a very small set of built-in plugins. Most content that was part of Ansible has been split off into individual Ansible Collections, which can be installed via the ansible-galaxy tool, or a forthcoming Ansible community distribution that will snapshot a set of collections roughly equivalent to what was in previous versions of Ansible. Most Ansible playbooks and roles will require the installation of some of these collections to be able to execute unmodified under ansible-base 2.10.
How to get it ------------- $ pip install ansible-base==2.10.0b1 --user The tar.gz of the release can be found here: * ansible-base 2.10.0b1 https://pypi.python.org/packages/source/a/ansible-base/ansible-base-2.10.0b1.tar.gz SHA256: c0cbf9681088bcc10d873502ea7054eaadea5db0bf10ebd4926f908f28868234 What's new in ansible-base 2.10.0b1 ----------------------------------- In addition to numerous bugfixes, most new Ansible features in the 2.10 release enhance Ansible's support for external plugins via collections. They include: * Collection declaration of supported/tested Ansible versions * Transparent redirection of plugins formerly included in Ansible to their destination collections * Installation of collections from git repositories * Various enhancements of test tooling These features support our goal of allowing Ansible content that was written for previous versions of Ansible to run unmodified under 2.10, once the necessary collections are installed.
