Ansible-Dirs-Creation

Script for creating ansible dir structure

Usage: ./create_playbook.py /path/to/playbookname [role1 role2 ...]

Creates an empty playbook skeleton, with any roles that are specified. e.g. ./create_plafybook.py /tmp/pyplaybook web db cache If /path/to/playbookname already exists, we only create the roles that don't exist yet, according to our structure.

                vars              # Role-specific variables, although I recommend using group_vars/all instead
                meta/             # Files that establish role dependencies

I'm putting more emphasis on well-structured roles here, and less on external dependencies/playbooks.
