Involved Projects and Packages
The Ansible inventory is a framework for declaring variables in a
hierarchical manner. There a lot of different places where a variable
can be defined. ansible-variables displays where host context
variables originate from.
Molecule project is designed to aid in the development and testing of
Ansible roles.
Molecule provides support for testing with multiple instances, operating
systems and distributions, virtualization providers, test frameworks and
testing scenarios.
Facilitate working with various versions of Ansible 2.9 and newer.
CLI for the AWX Ansible web platform
hatch_fancy_pypi_readme is a Hatch metadata plugin for everyone who cares about
the first impression of their project's PyPI landing page. It allows you to
define your PyPI project description in terms of concatenated fragments that
are based on static strings, files, and most importantly: parts of files
defined using cut-off points or regular expressions.
Once you've assembled your readme, you can additionally run regular
expression-based substitutions over it. For instance to make relative links
absolute or to linkify users and issue numbers in your changelog.
Do you want your PyPI readme to be the project readme, but without badges,
followed by the license file, and the changelog section for only the last
release? You've come to the right place!
jsonschema is an implementation of the JSON Schema specification for Python
The validator can be used as python module and from console:
$ jsonschema --instance sample.json sample.schema
Render rich text, tables, progress bars, syntax highlighting,
markdown and more to the terminal.
Stable branch of the Chef 14 packages.
Chef is an open source systems integration framework built to bring the benefits of configuration management to your entire infrastructure. You write source code to describe how you want each part of your infrastructure to be built, then apply those descriptions to your servers. The result is a fully automated infrastructure: when a new server comes on line, the only thing you have to do is tell Chef what role it should play in your architecture.
Development project for the latest Chef version. In our approach to make Chef a part of openSUSE, the development of the Chef 11 core packages now happens mostly in the appropriate project, devel:languages:erlang.

Everything related to Jetporch, Michael deHaan's new project (he is the original creator of Ansible...)
Jetporch - the Jet Enterprise Professional Orchestrator
Jetporch (aka Jet) is a general-purpose, community-driven IT automation platform for configuration management, deployment, orchestration, patching, and arbitrary task execution workflows.
Created and run by the creator of Ansible.
Packages related to opentofu, the open source fork of terraform
Fork of Terraform
OpenTofu is an OSS tool for building, changing, and versioning infrastructure safely and efficiently. OpenTofu can manage existing and popular service providers as well as custom in-house solutions.
The key features of OpenTofu are:
- Infrastructure as Code: Infrastructure is described using a high-level configuration syntax. This allows a blueprint of your datacenter to be versioned and treated as you would any other code. Additionally, infrastructure can be shared and re-used.
- Execution Plans: OpenTofu has a "planning" step where it generates an execution plan. The execution plan shows what OpenTofu will do when you call apply. This lets you avoid any surprises when OpenTofu manipulates infrastructure.
- Resource Graph: OpenTofu builds a graph of all your resources, and parallelizes the creation and modification of any non-dependent resources. Because of this, OpenTofu builds infrastructure as efficiently as possible, and operators get insight into dependencies in their infrastructure.
- Change Automation: Complex changesets can be applied to your infrastructure with minimal human interaction. With the previously mentioned execution plan and resource graph, you know exactly what OpenTofu will change and in what order, avoiding many possible human errors.
Packaging terraform and different external providers
Terragrunt is a thin wrapper for Terraform that provides extra tools for working with multiple Terraform modules.
What's this for?
When you need to see the output from all changed files within a directory.
Why doesn't tail -f /var/logs/* work?
Unfortunately, tail -f /logs/* may not do what you want it to do. Bash will expand * to all existing files within /logs/ and then show the extra lines added to each of them.
It also will not recurse down, any levels deeper than the current directory.
How is fstail different then?
fstail uses the gopkg.in/fsnotify to detect both new files, and existing files that are changed. It then starts concatenting their contents to the terminal.
I needed this for actuated.dev which launches microVMs on servers for CI.
Each VM launched will create a different file at: /var/log/actuated/GUID.txt, and tail -f * would only find existing files.
Firecracker is a virtualization technology for creating and managing
multi-tenant container and function-based services.
