Description

We are gonna to rework this repo (playbook) so the end goal is; users to easily deploy netdata via ansible

Tasks:

  • Change the ship of packages, from package cloud to repo.netdata.cloud
  • Sync the supported native packages with https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/.github/data/distros.yml
  • Figure out an option to install and execute any action (role) for not supported versions (via static builds)
  • Create test for most of the actions/plays
  • Create plays (roles or something else) to manage any config file of netdata
  • Publish this playbook to ansible galaxy
